        Really impressive half. We're belting them on the inside, effort and intensity is terrific and everyone is cracking in. Want to make the most of those opportunities but that was fantastic

          Freezing cold but we are playing some good football. A bit of luck with some goal conversions would help.

            Agree. There were some rushed behinds and points under pressure but Naughts and Darce should have converted

              We had the chance to really gap them but didn't. However, there is a lot to like about our effort all over the field.

              English has been excellent and Richards has been great. We must go on with this. Come on Dogs. Keep the foot down.

                So it's not just me? His positioning in the ruck has looked better and when we were under pressure for a minute with some defensive 50 stoppages his decision to smash the ball forward (and execute it) in this weather was pretty good.

                Richards still our best though

                  So many of the guys are just doing what they HAVE to do, even when they're not going to be the direct beneficiary themselves.
                  West, McNeil, VDM, Bramble, Buku, Poulter, Lobb they've all lifted their standard a notch. I like it. But we just deserved 2-3 more goals minimum to fully frank that dominance.
                  I think we will be ok. We are really up for the contest and the Cats aren’t as hard. Sure they can turn it around but I reckon we will have their measure

                    I just don't think I can bear seeing Scott's smugly smugglerson face if they were to win from here.

                      Clearances are fairly even but CP we are well on top.

                            I hate to say it, VDM, pull your finger out - 2 disposals doesn't cut it

                                It’s Geel at Geel. We aren’t getting the reward on goal as we deserve. Should be 30+ up.
                                I can see Geel kicking first 2 goals of 3rd, and it wouldn’t surprise me to see them hit the front at 3qtr time. And IF they do get in front, then they won’t be getting behind again.

                                They will come. Just hope we don’t get sluggish/miss tackles etc. and stop those over the head handballs just giving the ball back to them.
                                I will never see #16 the same!!
