Taylor and Mackie already slowing down. Lonergan not far behind as well. At least they have the likes of Ruggles to fill the breach

Well with no pick inside 45 after movements this draft, they've accelerated their bottoming out process.

1. 0 goals
2. 2 goals
3. 5 goals

That was a shameful performance by the Cats. Would have lost by 12+ goals if the Swans had a full bench. And that's with Danger and Selwood playing to their optimum.

Loving the talk about the pace of the Giants and the Swans.......loving the fact we don't exist.

Thought Danger had zero impact for someone who had so much of the ball.
Absolute beast of a player, but his disposal is not what it should be for someone regarded as the best player in the game.

I thought Geelong's bottom 6-8 really got found out tonight. Their talks were very very ordinary - And the likes of Caddy, Mackie and Harry Taylor (apart from 5 mins in the 3rd quarter) really let them down.,

McLachlan pretty much asking Heeney how they'd go against GWS... Carey the one to correct them, reminding them GWS isn't there yet.

His game tonight reminded me of Greefines game where he got 4568822 possessions against the Swans a couple of years ago. Heaps of it, but nothing really effective because the team around him didn't do anyting.

Duck finally acknowledged the Bulldogs as another party participating in this finals series. The cream factor in CH7 world over Sydney is fantastic, I can't wait to make it *!*!*!*!ed for them.

His 3rd qtr was pretty special but agree the rest of his game was not as damaging. He tends to just throw it on the boot out of a stoppage without looking, and he does sometimes get torched by his direct opponent going the other way because he has zero defensive game - Kennedy was massive and far more influential tonight.

The 3rd qtr from Danger and Selwood should alarm Geelong even more - they were both magnificent but barely put a dent in the deficit. So many passengers.

This is the basis of me contending that Geelong and its people will suffer from being ahead of itself in a cyclical nature. They're turning to shit, but they won't figure it out until 2025 or so.

Mark Blicavs has gone backwards also.
Looks like a confused player to me, and Motlop looks like he's checked out .

How much significance do we place on Geelong only playing 1 game in 17 days on tonight's performance from them?

Depending on the result tomorrow, it's going to generate one hell of a 'rest vs continuity' debate.

If they weren't as soft as a poo sandwich, and had have competed then it would be a non issue.

If we lose tomorrow then there's no penalty.

None of it means shite my brother.
