Autopsy Geelong smashed by Demons in PF and its gonna be a long summer

[dazbroncos]

Beaten in every single department of the game.

They were hungry.

We were not.

They deserved the win and when our wheels came off, they came fully off.

Gonna promt some change you have to think... and what form that takes who knows.

Be pissed but dont play the man.

Bans will be issued so dont test us.

GO Catters

 

[barmy44]

beaten by a younger, harder, more skilful and simply better team - happy for the demons, and im looking forward to watching them in the GF.

theyve made it there the hard way, and all the best to all their supporters on here.

great to see from a team that has gone through everything they have. i hope they have one more in them.

The window isn’t done buddy. People been saying it since 2010. Geelong exists to make finals

ffs - i didn’t say win them. only make

 

[Live in hope]

Everyone who has insisted our possession/control game can win finals against a good contested side - please form an orderly queue at the sign ‘Confess here to feeling like an absolute Burke’.

edit - Burke apparently should read ‘Berk’ … but I think you get the idea

 

[bulletproof]

Well played Melbourne. Sensational performance. I hope they go all the way.

 

[thecatattack]

We need a restructuring.

New coaching staff ASAP. Cut our losses with players like Kolo, Hendo, Rohan etc. Blood youth and still compete.

 

[STPer18]

Predictable.

The window isn’t done buddy. People been saying it since 2010. Geelong exists to make finals

No, it really is.

 

[catters05]

Geez….. we sucked.

Time to empty out the bath water from 2013 that this club keeps drinking.

 

[gaz love x]

Please please please be the straw that breaks the camel's back. I would like to be able to enjoy Selwood's last season.

The window isn’t done buddy. People been saying it since 2010. Geelong exists to make finals

Yeah, and that's the mantra of the club. Not worried about winning them, just making them.

 

[caitsith01]

What can we, as members, do to prevent the club continuing with business as usual after this? Not a fan of threatening to cancel my membership but this really is the limit.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

The window isn’t done buddy. People been saying it since 2010. Geelong exists to make finals

And lose them.

This group looks pretty bloody cooked though.

 

[_cam]

Boy o boy what a game that was!...for Melbourne

 

[Sky]

No, it really is.

We will make finals next year without winning the premiership. Any team who makes it can win it - see Bulldogs 2016.

 

[Live in hope]

Really hope we don’t dismiss this as ‘a bad night’

 

[Strange Cat]

Full credit to Melb they played well and rightly deserved the win

changes will need to be made and hopefully it’s the start of playing the kids

By the hard way I assume you mean being so shit they get gifted half a team worth of very, very talented players.

 

[hoopla]

It looked like the cats put the cue in the rack when the dees kicked a couple of goals after half time. The dees were brilliant for the whole game. Everything was in their favour…skills, midfield, lucky bounces and ricochets, umpiring. Every time they slipped over they got a free kick, but umpires ultimately irrelevant after half time.

 

[Sky]

And lose them.

Yeah, I’m not really disagreeing with you, I just think we’ll make the 8 & of course, fail again.

to go now. In the last 3-4 years he has been all in on slow, controlling ball movement. Anyone who has played footy knows that that goes completely against a players natural instincts. We finish top 4 every year because that style works in home and away and protects scores against us. Our star power manages to kick winning scores despite out negative style. But in finals when the pressure ramps up it gets exposed every single year.

Over the last few years we have looked our best when we play with reckless abandon and go fast. We just rarely do it. We have Hawkins, Cameron, Sav and everyone ones favourite whipping boy Rohan forward. If you’ve ever played forward, you’ll know it’s impossible to get a kick if the ball moves slow and it’s crowded.

I’ve generally been favourable of Chris Scott

and how can you knock a bloke that gives you a chance every single year but are we really a chance every year? No. Because our game style is shit.

Trade/ Delist/ Retire the following as we aren’t winning a flag with these blokes clogging the list:
Henderson, Higgins, kolo, Zuthrie, Constable, Jarvis, Jenkins, Dahlhaus.

Give our young players a game! Play these blokes every week: Simpson, Holmes, Narkle, Clark, Evans and give these blokes more opportunity: Krueger, De Koning, Stevens. They won’t become future Geelong guns if they don’t get played.

can either piss off or change the game plan to attacking high pressure football: a style that wins finals.

 

[James1970]

All eyes on Hocking now.

The window was shut at the end of 2011!!!

Nobody cares about the "making finals" window
Play horrid joyless football all season to finish high enough to get flogged in finals. What a ride.

 

[Romeoh1]

Well done dees- exceptional footy. Hope they win the flag- play like that and they will romp it in.
And yep, we were rubbish.
