Embarrassed how?

Absolutely embarrassing for a sport to have continuous play that resilts in a goal to be ruled out for a free kick to the team who kicked the goal
We absolutely did ourselves no favours falling 50 points down but that call is as bad as it gets

Horrible first half. I turned the sound off. It was bad enough watching without hearing the commentators. But what a second half. The players couldn't have tried any harder and came so close, but had given away too much of a lead. Still it's good to be a Geelong supporter.

Not even upset over the win which is strange
8 points last week and 6 points tonight isn’t the worse results to had happened …tough 2 games coming up hopefully they can regroup

Just because Stanley is done doesn't mean Conway is ready
Duncan was much better after 1/2 time. Hitting targets again.
Mullin was mostly excellent after coming on. A lot of promise and a lot to work with.
Stengle fantastic as he has been all year.
Worried for Hawkins. I don't think this is rest related. I think the cliff has come and it's come quickly. The proof will be in the pudding once he comes back after his rest.
Not sure what we do about the ruck. Conway is injury prone and very unfit. Stanley has been taken to the cleaners too often. I understand keeping Stanley on as Conway clearly isn't up to even 20 AFL games in a season, but we're bereft of options at the moment unless Neale can play full time ruck. It might be our best option.

Awful first half, insipid up until the Stanley sub.
Zuthrie, Stengle, Atkins, Mullin once he was on were great, Kola was pretty assured again our medium/tall forwards delivered little, although Hawk broke his drought. Club will cop a fine for Cameron’s double head knocks.
Our smalls are carrying the forward line, our midfield is desperately missing Danger, Bruhn.
Team is being too cute with our ins/outs, and we need to get some games into some other players like Mannagh and Knevitt.
Henry although was better than last week and SDK really need to work on bodying their opponents and contesting the ball. Too many contested marks are taken in our defensive 50 that have no right to be taken.
We are screaming out for a small defender.
7-2, feeling a bit meh now.

Great fight back but beyond awful start.
That was just a complete hammering in the first half.
Zuthrie is brilliant.

He was a tagger but he ran off his man well. He'll be a midfielder

That they allowed a midfield like tonight to claw back a 50 plus point defect with Kenny screaming at the crowd to get ****ed after the siren is very embarrassing
Will the selectors (after 12 years) finally get that the rucks are important?
We are mastering the art of having our backs and forwards getting more of the pill than our mids.
You gotta go down to our 8th players in the disposals column before you find a mid.
Atkins, with 16 touches, was our leading midfield possession-getter.
Now I know it's not all about numbers... but that is bordering on a disgrace.

It seems like coach and players didn't respect Port much at all.
Clawed back 49 but didn't win the chook.
At least gave the crowd a reason to get up, but frankly we were so damn slow, stupid errors and two of the old school found out big time.
I like Atkins, but needs to reel it in a bit, costly mistakes- with others of course.
Okay Port were good, and umpiring was inconsistent and lazy at key moments.
Selection need to do better, time to change it up, no matter how brave the fightback.

The latter requires the former.
Learning curve is encouraging. MOc was very tentative over the journey. I thought he would develop more quickly given his skills in the Irish game.
It would be good to see Mullin really allowed to show some chops. Seems like a more confident character.
He was garbage early on like 90% of his mates, and improved significantly in the second half.
Stop being a muppet.

Hence why I said I prefer Blitz if Conway isn’t ready/ first dab
Steven Kings back so good luck with that
Without stengle and Zuthrie we would’ve been slaughtered. Just keep playing Oisin please. If a player takes advantage it’s play on. See yas next week
