Game Day Round 1, 2024: Geelong v St.Kilda *COLLARD, WILSON DEBUT*

[gringo2011]

Maybe Mitch Owens into the middle and Phillipou forward. Poo looked better up front than on ball.

 

[Sarcoidevo]

We have been horrible so far so if we can improve in the 2nd half we are a big chance ...

in there asap for us. So one paced

 

[gringo2011]

So when does Ross sub.
And who?
Higgins?

Wilson looks like he's struggling with the tempo so far. Maybe swap a kid for a kid.

 

[SteeleSaints]

We need pressure forward to lock it in. Maybe for Wilson. He looks a bit off the pace.

They've had 36 inside 50's to our 19. It all starts through the middle of the ground. Our mids and our wings are being flogged, you dont win games like that.

I said it earlier but there is no way Crouch should be playing.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Crouch definitely missing a beat on return. As far as I can see.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Ok second half. Fitness youth speed and run vs hard bodies and old heads.
I’m still backing us in.

Crouch looks like he missed lot of preseason, when he doesn't fire we look ordinary.

Hill s having a bit of a shocker

Possibly the worst midfield effort I've seen for a while. Put King in the middle Pou at FF..do something different for Gawds sake

Yep big barometer for us.

 

[Verdun]

De ja fn vu .....the midfield

Rotate some of our guns.....Owens, Poo etc and get our hands on the ball first if not it will be a shiiiiiite second half

we need to get our hands on the ball first in the middle

 

[George]

That boundary reporter though

 

[Otiman]

We get plenty of clearances but they're not quality.

How many high bombs out of a pack from Steele to a contest or intercept.

 

[bergholt]

Collard's going to be up against it the way this game is being played, can't imagine he'll get a sniff when he comes on.

 

[Kain26Toad]

Can someone arrange a search party to help me find Mitchito

 

[SaintJunior]

Would love to see Owens play as a mid and not offering anything up forward .

Getting thumped in the midfield .

If we want to win we need to win the midfield and not allow Geelong control of the football.

Might be delusional , in fact definitely are but can’t have played much worse but are close enough to run over the top of them

Playing in the fwd half because Ross still thinks Phillipou is a midfielder.

Get him to run with Bruhn.

 

[Yabadoo22]

Owens has to play mid, we are getting smashed in there. Poo defiantly a better forward at this stage. Rowan trying his guts out as per. I’d sub Crouchy or Ross, get collard on to add some forward half spark. Crouchy looks gassed.

 

[Saintbloke]

Geelong are not that good, and we are playing terrible footy with few winners, but only 13 points down. Trying to find good players, maybe Byrnes who is having a real crack, but jeez, a lot are standing on the outside waiting for the easy kick.

 

[TheJackal]

Windy to Danger, Steele to Holmes, get Owens into the game in the centre and make an early statement. Higgins off for Collard and back Wilson in to run himself into the game.

How on earth we are still in it after that first half can only mean we have a big chance to come away with a W if we pull our finger out

 

[SteeleSaints]

Surely our coaches can see where we are struggling? Hopefully they make some changes in the 2nd half.

Starting midfield should be Windhager, Steele & Henry. Ross to a HBF. Owens rotate with Steele. Windy to tag Bruhn.

Crouch subbed our for Collard.

Henry even more so. There is potential for quick improvement, Ross just needs to get them together.

 

[Banger9798]

Crouch is underdone, will be better for the run (and all that).
Is putting Michito in the guts too obvious???
Wilson is fine, will be a gun
Bonner is a great pick up.
Henry electric.

Just need to win some centre clearances.
