Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
This needs to be a moment for the future. Beveridge has to rule a line through some guys who just aren't up to the skills level.

Had a good taste, but he needs to refine his game.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
How's the last free kick against Wood, what a lot of bollocks that was.
Disappointing finish in the end. Just not enough class in the side to match it for the four quarters. I don't want to see Hayes or Young in the side next week, we'd be immediately better with Dale and Williams in their spots.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
Really dissapointing last quarter. No one stood up. Can we just forfeit games down there in future it's like lambs to the slaughter for the Geelong public's viewing pleasure.

Looking forward to reading the defence of Gowers and how well he blocked and created space for his teammates.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Richards lifted in the 2nd half.
Young battles, he's got a bright future but he was outclassed by more experienced opponents today.
Hayes was woeful.

He's really good in the air. He'll take over the intercept role when he's had a couple of pre-seasons.
Bailey Smith lifts when the standard of the game lifts. I know it's a disappointing game but by god I love watching him play. He's a beauty.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
I missed the game today. Sounds like the same story reading the last few pages. Missed easy shots, tried hard, lacked some polish in key moments and blokes playing that shouldn't be. Is that about it?

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
I watched Footscray today and a lot better players in that side than some we sent out tonight .
I just want to know why when we play a tall side we go shorter ?

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R9 2019
Really thought the rub of the green went with the date tonight. We just needed to not give dumb free kicks away (Gowers) contest (Hayes) and take a mark Wood
BB.
Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.
