This was from the Geeelong board after Guthrie kicks out of bounds on the full late in the last quarter.
" That free kick was not there in the context of the game either. Given the intensity it shouldnt have been given "
My memories also go back to 68 when I was the same age as you. You must have been more upmarket as there was no tomato box for us to stand on, I had to wait for enough of the 750 ml steel cans of beer to be consumed so that I could stand on them get a better look at the game. When we signed...
Gerard Whately said he had spoken to three list managers this morning and all had said that Carltons pick 7 is what Saad should be worth. He probably called Dodoro three times.
Oliver's apparent unhappiness at Melbounre stems from his lower than expected finish in their best and fairest. If he got his nose out of joint because he only was rated their fifth best player this year, does that really show the correct attitude or temperament?
Like many of the posters here have said that performance was numbingly bad. We as a team could not score more goals than Laverde and Baguley combined that is so sad.
The poor foot skills causing tunrover after turnover are just painful to watch.
I liked Stockers game today he has the game and...
That was so disappointing particularly after the way the team played for the majority of last weeks game. A much stronger showing from GWS was on the card after their performance last week but we should have known that.
The delivery of the ball into the forward line for the bulk of the game was...
A really good effort from the boys today, the stronger more experienced players from collingwood came to the fore in the end.
We were missing 570 games experience from our backline today, that would have helped in the last 5 minutes to try and settle down the younger players.
As many have...
I was hoping that we had put that kind of performance behind us after the effort that had been shown in the previous rounds but alas that was wrong.
At halftime Mackay, Silvagni, LOB Cuningham Philips and Casboult had a combined 3 effective possessions you cannot compete with such minimal...
Wonderful allround performance by the boys today.
As so many have said before
the first half from SPS was outstanding and hopefully the level he can produce consistently
Harry, those hands were so solid all day the boy can take a grab
Walsh continues to amaze for someone playing just his fifth...
During the telecast last night they put a list of the top 5 players in the league for average distance covered per game. Walsh was equal third with an average of 15.7 km per game. If this kid is putting up numbers like that at after one preseason, his levels after 3-4 years in the system could...
The thought of playing 2 ruckmen would be somewhat bewildering. They were smashed 60 to 6 in the hitouts last week against the pies, so 2 rucks seems over the top. Despite being thrashed in the ruck, their midfiled still held their own against Collingwood's much vaunted on ball brigade. So if...
Once again the MRO looks at the outcome and not the action when determining the penalty. How this action is deemed to be more severe than Martins elbow in the face or the elbow Grimes handed out is farcical.
Losing the game in the manner that we did was gut wrenching. The turnovers repeatedly just killed us, so many targets missed all day., add this to some poor decision making and we get that sort of result.
A few players deserving of praise
Jones really good down back
Weitering showing the form...
I think we might in trouble in this game. The game does not start for another 30 minutes and according to the VFL website the Northern blues are already 32 points down
Q1Geelong0.32-32 Northern Blues 0.0
Whilst interested to see stocker play I hope that he is held back and only picked after he bangs down the door with 2-3 good games in the VFL. The kid will be under added pressure knowing the deal that was done that allowed him to drafted by us, so waiting until he is showing good form might...
I have seen 8 as well and yes I totally agree, a competitive side week in week out, going to games without that fear of is a hiding on the cards today is a great feeling. Hopefully that time for us us close again, I dont think we are that far away, despite no wins so far this year.
I guess that is the advantage of being older, getting to see us beat * in a GF, beat collingwood three times and Richmond twice before turning 21.
Oh I wish for those days of success again.
The last time that they won a final and Sheedy was not coach, was before man landed on the moon. It was the preliminary final in 1968 against the cats before they lost to us in the 68 grand final, the first grand final I watched live.
Despite some good form from the Suns, a win here for us is still a good chance.We should not be physically outmatched this week like we have in other games and hopefully this allows the talent in the side to shine through.
It is obviously an understatement to say that a win is badly needed...
Another disappointing result, a game which we could have won if not for the multitude of errors around the ground.
The inability of our players to convert straightforward set shots or hit targets continues to be a major issue. I think a North Korean missile is more likely to hit its target...
Terrible news as so many have commented previously. Have to feel for the bloke going through a second ACL.
If we are loking to be a side that pushes deep into the finals come 2021 then we need to rely less on a smaller group of players, so time for a Newman, Williamson or LOB to step up and...

My forwards, C Curnow H Mckay M Mcgovern A Fasolo, SPS S Walsh W Setterfield.
Again not easy which is starting to reflect some depth. SPS Walsh and Settefield to rotate through the middle.
If Picket was fit then in considerarion or maybe as the 22nd player
My three
1 Weitering I think he will show this year the level of performance we thought was possible after year one and develop into our standout tall defender
2 Mckay He will beefit from the more open forward line and kick more than 40 goals
3 Dow Was outstanding in year one and with the...
