He has been an angry man lately.

Geelong may well end up winning the premiership the way they are tracking right now. Their recruiting has been top notch. If only we were like this.

Let hope that with the personnel we have, we are on the right track.

But just, WOW, what a club. How there supporters must be so proud.

Their supporters definitely have had a great ride all the way back from 2007.

Strange non selection of Ryder tonight.
Essendon fluffed their lines when dominating in the third term.
Geelongs recruiting . What can you say

We're in a similar spot that they were in 2000 - 02 period.
Stack of youngsters blended in with older players.
Remember watching bits of a game from around 2002( Riccardi's after siren goal)
Cats had the likes of Kilpatrick Scholl, Peter Street running around
With all their young players

Obviously respect the club but I'm at the point where I want to see them brought back to Earth. Arrogant supporters and a fawning media, not to mention the way Harley, Ling and Brownless carry on with their best mates with the players routine whenever they do a Geelong game. Would rather just about anyone else won the flag this year

I'd rather they win 20 premierships than Essendon win one, particularly with Hird as coach. While their supporters may be arrogant (and let's face it, who wouldn't be) the playing group have maintained a pretty low key personality and their development of kids is exceptional.
As for on-ground, have they now developed a game plan which is essentially rope-a-dope?

Did I hear correctly that Geelong had 10 players in their team last night with less than 50 games.... Amazing effort to be performing as well as they are with so many inexperienced kids in the team.

Essendon had 9 with less than 50 and 8 between 50-100 to Geelongs 3.

Watched both of tonight's. games
Luke Hodge is critical to Hawthorns flag chances
Sam Reid's struggling and needs help ( luckily Tippett is coming)
Wonderful win by Freo with all those outs. What a massive improver Walters is, and emphasised what a huge loss Toovey is.Say what you like but Lyon's probably the best coach in it.
