They are missing Houston

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Another year of an interstate team suffering from home ground advantage.

VicBias!!!

They whine & whine & whine.

And then piss away their golden opportunity to get 2 home finals.

 

[BigVic]

Worst AFL season in living memory, ending in another Geelong flag and grand final mauling. I only have the Brownlow to watch this September and the 2024 Spring Racing Carnival is around the corner.

Add to that we are not even in September at all and Ollie Henry is going to be a premiership player.

The AFL is dead if Geelong wins the flag and signs Bailey Smith

which is all but certain.

Last time Geelong were in the GF it was the lowest rated grand final. Nobody outside Geelong fans will care about them winning another flag. It will be a Geelong-Hawthorn era of dominance in the next few years.

 

[live fast pieyoung]

Calm down cats aren't winning the flag

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

Dixon should retire

Ludicrous selection.
Moves like a Carnival Cruise ship.
Should move to the US and cook brisket

 

[Fat Jesus]

Calm down cats aren't winning the flag

They are certainly capable. Humming

 

[Exambolor]

Whoever wins tommorow is making a prelim based on tonight

 

[Magpie Since 1986]

Take the positive out of this , Geelong were exactly where we are now, this time last year .

 

[GreekLunatic]

It gives us hope for next year get a fit checkers and mcstay tinker with the game plan and we can bounce back

 

[Unknown Identity]

Ginnivan sinking beers at the London night before a final.

Can't help himself haha

 

[live fast pieyoung]

Best they've looked all year. Look very good. But this is way too high scoring to be considered a representative finals game.

Could you see them beating two of Gws, Swans, Brisbane on the trot? They still have a few weak players on the field

 

[ksardog]

They are certainly capable. Humming

Look who they are playing though
Dixon, Ratagulea, Zerk-Thatcher, Allie Allir is their spine
That is trash in any era

 

[anshell]

It looks like Port will go out in straight sets like they did last year,Don’t they play the winner of the Bulldogs Hawthorn game next week?I wouldn’t fancy their chances in that game,even at home,

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

They are certainly capable. Humming

Cats know how to play finals footy.

Similar to us.

 

[manicpie]

Hinkley and Dixon are like bucks and blair

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Port have given up like a bunch of petulant, sulky teenagers.

Pitiful response.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Can't help himself haha

He can’t be that dumb

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Ken Hinkley's record in finals is abysmal.

3 finals wins in his first two seasons coach. Only 2 finals wins in the next 10 seasons after that.

 

[unplugged]

Port have given up. This is disgraceful.

On the plus side maybe Houston will rethink his comments RE wanting to stay.

Add Cameron.
No more trash

 

[jimmy35]

Wtf is going on with Ollie Henry’s eyebrows.

 

[Occidental]

It gives us hope for next year get a fit checkers and mcstay tinker with the game plan and we can bounce back

My thoughts exactly.
We have the side, but we need the troops back, a slightly easier draw and the hunger to avenge a wasted year.
The comps’ very even - we should turn 12-2-9 into at least 15-8 next year….

 

[sam_e]

Port have given up. This is disgraceful.

On the plus side maybe Houston will rethink his comments RE wanting to stay.

much prefer to go after Bergman .. younger, better aerially, has a strong leg on him and OOC end next year

Houston is older, longer existing contract & will be too expensive trade wise at this point
