If laird wasn't playing we would be 10 down.. But poor guy bust his chops drives the ball into our so called great forward line and it just comes back out cause our forwards labor around with no ground efforts at all..

Why a teammate doesn't provide a block every now & then baffles me.


Cos they are all chasing kicks themselves, the Crouch's are just ball hunters, not much else going on up top, other mids you would hardly describe as physical players. Need to get Laird into the midfield more. Hampton, McKay and Menzel's career should be done as of now. Also dont think you can win a flag with Kelly and to a lesser extent Brown in your defence. I said the same thing last year with Cheney so at least they have that right this year albeit by accident

Just one more goal now for a repeat of last week, you know that once in a blue moon performance that they just shrug off as one of those things :D

Well........ we all want to see our teams be the pinnacle but **** me those blokes out there for Adelaide are kidding themselves if they think they are even finishing top 4. Don't care what the result from here is from now but there needs to be some serious questions asked!
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Touhy :D handed the game to Essendon, fits perfectly into the Geelong pre 2007 mould of the handbagger tag. Hasnt laid a tackle in 2 weeks, how does a defender not lay a tackle when you are getting beaten. Acts like Tarzan plays like Jane

Posted a while back that Geelong are overrated. North had them on toast, Melbourne's bad kicking, dicey umpiring v the Saints - all 3 were extremely lucky wins. They're soft - period.
If Dangerwood doesn't fire, no one else puts their hand up (special mention to that pretender Hawkins).
Their run home with games at Kardinia Pk should probably see them play finals, but right now they won't bother anyone.

The last 3 weeks of that rubbish really shows how mediocre Geelong really are.

Yep. I said it last year as well, our 2nd tier players are just no good.
And we got Scott for another few more seasons......
******* joke.

Hows that leaky Crows defence going now? Melbourne have pretty much zero forwards, no Hogan, no Gawn still kick 100.

Unlike those guys he rarely misses on the run. He is going to get atleast half a dozen good chances each week so there is still a glimmer of hope
