Re: Game Day Round 16 2015 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs

Our ball use going inside 50m has been poor, but most of the forwards aren't presenting well or winning one on one's. We're also not getting many clean clearances from the stoppages.

Correct.

We're trying to progress up the ground with use of handball as there's not wide option to kick to due to the shape of the ground. The Cats are able to find some space in the middle though luckily they've been wasteful and we've had some excellent individual defencive efforts to curtail their scoring.

Well he is not alone. Stringer and Redpath missed easy shots as well. The only bloke that I trust is Dickson having a set shot.

Stringer and Redpath misses were very poor.

Campbell has often been first to get his hand on the ball but we are not getting any advantage from it IMO.

Gee Crameri is poor in congestion

We're being out coached or out played allowing the Cats to take the middle of the ground all day.

At Kardinia Park it's the only area where you can find space and we're giving it up time and time again.

Campbell's body work has been great, but his tap work has been rubbish.

Re: Game Day Round 16 2015 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs

He's mentally not up to it, and if you couple that with his poor technique it's a recipe for terrible set shots. With field kicking he doesn't have to think about things.

His possessions in play are also uncontested and in wide open space, he doesn't have to kick over an opponent.

I'm calling it over now.

Re: Game Day Round 16 2015 - Geelong V Western Bulldogs

Getting nothing from Tom Boyd, he doesn't look like getting a kick up forward.

We don't look like ever taking a mark up forward and we're getting outmarked routinely at the other end.

This quarter's reminding me of Fremantle at Docklands last year.

They have all the space in the world and we're fighting each other to rack up 20cm handballs.
