Geelong Donuts

Talk on the national game

Geelong Donuts

Postby Rik E Boy » Sun Apr 29, 2007 6:14 pm

Hawthorn are dead set ordinary. The Kangaroos are Shithouse. Yet both of these sides comfortably accounted for the Cats in the last two weeks. If you are from overseas or Mars and are thinking about following an AFL club do not follow the Cats, it just isn't worth it. Even St Kilda will deliver something ahead of this collection of duds.

Never have I seen a side less pumped up at home coming off a disappointing loss.

:x File


KING: It's over. Young ruckman who have played less than two seasons are flogging you every time out.
KELLY: Can't do a decent handpass despite being in the system for years.
COREY: Used to be overrated but now everyone knows he is just plain shit. Doesn't do anything when the game is up for grabs but pumps up his stats in junk time.
MOONEY: Never has and never will kick the pressue goals.
BOMBER THOMPSON: Today showed without doubt he is the worst coach in the league bar none. Totally clueless and reactive. Last week Hodge had no oppenent and this week it was Simpson. Next week you can expect Brett Delido to get 35 touches. Thompson is a cancer who can reflect on his Essendon premierships with our cash in his pocket. **** OFF.
THE REVIEW: What a ******* joke that is. We got the boss to run a review of what had been happening under his nose for the past 12 months and we didn't change anything. Surprise surprise same shit different year. FFS. The fans get told we are going to believe in ourselves and run and have a crack at the goals but that happy horseshit has dried up by round four.
JOHNSON: Not up to it. Why do think he's not at Essendon?
ENRIGHT: His disposal is rubbish. Best player for Kangaroos today.
LING: Severely limited. Got some cheapies today but the fact that he has gone from gun midfielder to run with player in the last few years says plenty. We should trade his arse.

8) The few positives from the train wreck that was today

SELWOOD: Terrific game. Showed more experienced Cats what it was about
BARTEL: One of the regulars who really had a crack
CHAPMAN: You can't keep a good Cat down. Why isn't this man Captain..oh that's right, he actually takes the field
VARCOE: Real pace and goalsense

Geelong are the donuts, defence looks OK, forward line not bad but the midfield is a giant black hole. Only Carlton rely on their young mids as much as we do. In every match this year we have been killed in the clearances, it was just that Melbourne and Carlton were crap all over the ground. The Kangas wanted it more and were prepared to work much harder. I can take losing to a team with more experience, size or class but losing to a team that is undermanned and on your own home deck one year after a 'searching' review is a giant shitburger for all of us Cats to eat. Unfortuntely, the Catters now only too well how to prepare this particular delicacy! Bomber and the duds have to go. Some of these blokes need to be traded while we can still get something for them. GFC need to grow some balls.

NOT A HAPPY

I remember last year you made similar comments / reviews on the Geelong list

BUT when the club won some late games you were prepared to give players such as Ling another opportunity

I did say at the time, it can be dangerous accessing players seasons based on wins when the season is all but over, I feel the club has retained players based on the last 6 weeks of season 2006, now we are seeing the same shite dished up from the playing group

I wish I didn't! They could have showed me that match where Simpson got 41 touches back in 2001. We've gone exactly nowhere since then. I suppose it's better to have your youngest players as best rather than your oldest like the Sainters but jeez that was tough to watch today.

Congrats btw. The better side won. (Thought I'd better add that after my rant).

We want to believe, but how can we continue to do so? I'll be dancing in the streets of Ipswich when Bomber walks.

I don't know what will make you happier, how laughable we are or how good your blokes were.

McIntosh
Simpson
Harvey
Gibson
Edwards (falls over a bit)
Firrito
Swallow (two cat carve ups now)

Watch for how the Roos without exception ran the ball out of defence with no pressure. Your fowards by comparison, worked your arses off to apply pressure. Pretty basic stuff eh? So why weren't we doing it! VERY FRUSTRATING. If it wasn't for the umpires you would have won by another four goals I reckon. Poor old Shannon Grant got smashed several times and didn't get the free kicks he deserved. One thing that pissed me off (one of many grumpy git I am) is that we would be inside 40 (FFS) and pass off to someone 10 metres closer on a worse angle who more often than not was picked off by a closing defender. Meanwhile your blokes were dobbing them from everywhere.

WAIL!!

You'll beat us. Geniear5e Thompson will leave Harvey unmarked an the G Train will kick a swag of goals. We don't play you at Cat Park anymore remember.

REB, if we had a bet on the STK/Geelong game (Rd10, 3rd June),
would it be the first time that two people bet against their own side. :-k

REB

A well respected poster on another site Im on, who is a Geelong man, said this 2 weeks ago when everyone was talking them up -

I'm not sure how many times I need to say that Geelong are useless.
On paper they are extremely talented but the team is full of wankers who trhink their shit doesn't stink.
The factions are still there. The coach is still useless.
Those things have not changed. Until there is a complete clean out Geelong will always be Geelong.
This is only my humble opinion.

:cry: I can no longer defend the indefensible. Copping heaps and rightly so...Mama don't let your babies grow up to be Cat fans.....

Still, it could have been worse. I could have been yet another Crow sheep defending the indefensible and saying that it doesn't matter if they are the most boring team in the history of professional sport as long as they keep losing prelim finals. :P

Er...did that deflection work?

REB

ps - Girly donuts? No heart? A bit harsh on a few players...I'd say the Geelong donut has a sprinkling of talent but it's a bit sour for supporters at the moment.
