Why would the description change?

What positives are you taking from the game?

 

[Snow]

Did that commentator just say straight off the dick?

Energy-sapping win last week took more out if us than we thought?

That's a poor excuse. It's Melbourne FFS. I think they just get too caught up in their own hype. Not enough respect was paid to Melbourne by the coaches or players.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Can't believe how pathetic this last quarter has been, we were only down by 11pts, it's just a disgrace!!!!

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Maybe some heat will finally go on Scott.

Why on Scott? Scott isn't out there playing so badly!

 

[Snow]

What positives are you taking from the game?

Lang, lang and lang.

 

[winty]

We've had 9 scoring shots to 10 in the 2nd half. We've kicked 5.4, they've kicked 9.1.

9 day break?

 

[Teriyakicat]

Maybe some heat will finally go on Scott.

Why? When we have got 22 blokes out there who've had their arses whipped and handed to them by an up and about team in Melbourne?
We're losing it through basic skill errors and the disappearance of key players.

 

[HoopsAhoy]

5 unanswered goals in 15 minutes? Doable but not by this version of the Geelong Cats unfortunately.

 

[Cataholic]

Energy-sapping win last week took more out of us than we thought?

No. Simply been outplayed, and our ball use has been disgraceful

 

[winty]

3.1 to 0.4 Melbourne's way this quarter.

 

[Teriyakicat]

9 day break?

Should've helped but we're not good after a bye so maybe the 9 day break works against us too. I think we do better after 6 day breaks!

 

[Seeds]

Geelong aren't even trying.

 

[Snow]

We've had 9 scoring shots to 10 in the 2nd half. We've kicked 5.4, they've kicked 9.1.

Liked that post for the information, not for the content

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Duuuude are you even watching the game?

Nah too busy sniping you.

 

[vinum coupe]

Maybe, just maybe a few of us could see that we were in for a poor day during that first quarter. To slag off at posters for sharing these views is petulant. Do you suggest we don't bother with a game thread?

Non stop comments of "we're rubbish" rather than discussion on the game is useless.

Hence why I gave the thread the flick until now.

 

[Baudolino]

Blown a chance to move into the eight. Blown a club legend's 300th game. This is the lowest point the club has sunk to in a long time.

Agree. And anyone who suggests this is hyperbole is seriously deluded. It's been literally ten years since we've embarrassed ourselves on home turf like this.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

What we need to do all next week is practice strong contested marking, how many times have our talks had the ball and then just lost it????

 

[Catsace]

Last week was one of our best wins for the club. Today is one of our worst losses.

As far as it's importance in the season and quality of opposition, it's rivalling that loss to St.Kilda in RD 15 1983 when we lost to a side that was 1-13 to that point. Today has been a ghastly result, and more than a wake-up call, it's a gong over the head that says we have work to do in this rebuild. It's a rebuild for sure as we are replacing champions of a great era, but we have to refocus our aims after this game as finals are now a pipe dream. Finalists do not drop game like this.

Nah too busy sniping you.

Click duh siggy linky.

 

[mcwilrob]

Should make the bastards train hard instead of bye.... No f'in holidays, travel or anything

 

[bigfarter]

Hahahahahahaha.

 

[Liger]

Could have locked in 6th position but will stay in 10th and have to fight for the 8 now.
Higher draft pick will help with the Paddy trade so that must be why this is happening.
