Game Day Round 17, 2024 : Geelong v Hawthorn, 4:35pm GMHBA stadium

[Dewnior]

Holding the ball doesn't exist when Geelol have the ball

 

[CHUBBSS]

They're not having to do much at all. Just waiting on our moronic mistakes over and over.

Every contest

 

[kenneje]

Midfield getting ****ing PUMPED. Defence are under such extreme and direct pressure.

Expecting a spray at half time. Effort is way down.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Far too fumbly today.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

 

[Max Powers]

Tackle!!!!!!

 

[Gut Runner]

Looks like the Hawks from the opening few rounds

Because we are playing a decent side again

 

[JoeHawk]

smh....its like they've got 25 players on the ground

 

[Brishawk]

How many geelong defenders ran off their opponent then to provide an option with their hawk opponent 5m behind?

Midfield getting ****ing PUMPED. Defence are under such extreme and direct pressure.

Expecting a spray at half time. Effort is way down.

Will be over by then. Prob already is.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Think our game plan is struggling to translate to this size ground. We can’t find space for runners when we get the ball. Coupled with poor work rate, we’re getting blitzed.

Bath water has been tasting sweet all week.

 

[Hawker_85]

Well, I'm off to do something else until half time, this is making my blood boil.

 

[Franko Armani]

Amazing for such an OLD team that everyone here talked about , they are absolutely torching us for speed and smarts, reactions.

 

[Denver Day Lewis]

Centre square is the issue. That was so easy

Centre square is a debacle, even with Meek winning taps.

But two, three, four, five defenders are getting sucked into the contest and leaving easy outs, every. single. goddamned time.

Selection dilemma aside, Sam Mitchell is having his pants pulled down today. By one of the sh!ttest blokes in football.

No finals for this team. And an absolute thrashing underway.

Fck this.

 

[burger09]

Witches Hats

 

[Gut Runner]

Defense without Siciliy is very average

Wouldn't make a difference mids are playing crap

 

[Blahsta]

I just can't reconcile this performance with the team from the last 7 weeks. Wasn't expecting a win but the skill level has been sub vfl stuff.

 

[Franko Armani]

Bruest was an awful swlection

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Moore just got Sheppard's out by a player on the ground. When we are off, we are really off

 

[Kuuz]

Aside from SDK, its really Geelongs older contingent leading the way and using their experience.

Our older heads are having zero impact, but largely due to our midfield getting whomped. Mitch is getting outcoached a bit in this game, Scott has torn our mids apart so far with setups.

 

[Brishawk]

Hit targets. It just might work…

 

[Dewnior]

Because we are playing a decent side again

Oh, so none of the last 10 opponents we played were decent

 

[Off The Couch]

Not looking great today
And in here is a shit take
time for me to put the phone away

 

[Bardo State]

We are telegraphing everything. There's no feel or fluidity. Kicking to their spare every time. It's painful.
