Gee there was a mass exodus of our supporters from about the 12 min mark of the last quarter. Not a good sign when confidence in the playing group is so low.

Maybe that's what they need.

Through and through, on the condition you guys practice your kicking a bit on your own time so when you get to your job your deficiencies are less pronounced.

Just back from the game.

Do you know what actually hurt the most tonight? Geelong didn't even play that well. If you get beaten by some great football, you can cope that. They were ordinary. We were just worse.

Three minutes to go and three goals down, Smith gets a fifty and runs forward slowly enough to allow holes to be filled. Then goes sideways to a contest. What the actual **** mate?

Perfect example of our idiotic players not thinking or being proactive.

If only there was a stat for stupidity. We'd be far and away on top of that table.

I'm surprised so many went in with high expectations.
I had the cats by a couple so I wasn't uber upset with the result. We rarely beat the top 4 sides.
I don't rate our defence, and I think the midfield is looking a little slow and old.
We really need an injection of youth in the guts. Croft has me super worried that we are going to be so unbalanced.

If Bont doesn't put the superman cape on and carry the rest of the midfield, we are just pedestrian in there. When he has absolutely dominated doing abnormally good things, we look great. He must be carrying something again (that knee was strapped) and the rest don't just stand up.

It's like all the fans are accustomed to the typical crap we deliver. Yet somehow the coaches and players and everyone else down at the club are completely oblivious to it as nothing ever changes and we keep getting told we're in a premiership windows when all the fans know we're nowhere near it.

They just don't think!

Libba coughing it up instead of holding it in and being caught holding the ball so he could stifle the play. Bont kicking it along the ground inside directly to their waiting defender instead of stopping the flow, English coming across in front of Jamarra who was perfectly positioned after having out-bodied his opponent and dropping the mark. It just doesn't stop with this group of players, they're a bunch of ****ing imbeciles.

Just got home now.

Very disappointing not to get the win tonight. We gave it up to the Cats so much and they seemed to me to get us in the clearances.

Had plenty of opportunities to get it on the scoreboard but did not take them. It has cost us in the past as myself and Prince Imperial were discussing at the game tonight.

English was really good. He is having a great season. Daniel had a very good night as well and Libba just tried very hard.

Huge game now next Friday night at Marvel Stadium against Port Adelaide.

Re: WB Game Day V Geelong R12 2023 Sat 3/6, 7:25PM - Marvel Stadium

We had eight of the of top nine disposal winners on the ground. Eight. We had the the top five. Their highest was a backman. They didn't have an inside mid with more than 20 touches.

Yet they win.

Butters, Rozee, Wines, Jhf, Boak are going to be a big challenge.

Yet, we still lost. How? How is that possible?

It's all Luke Beveridge's fault apparently.

Bevo just said that, when questioned, he didn't feel Stewart had a big impact on the game.

Stewart had 27 touches (23 kicks), 1 goal, 10 marks.

Third quarter. We have seven scoring shots for 17 points. They have four scoring shots for 25 points.

Last quarter. We have three scoring shots for three points. They have four scoring shots 18 points.

Second half. We have 11 scoring shots for 20 points. They have nine scoring shots for 44 points.

Plus how many did we kick on the full?

We dominated every stat you want to win. Yet, we don't take our chances. This has been an issue in the Bevo era regardless of personal except for a few golden weeks a few times.
