What a bunch of crap. The Dogs kept sustained pressure on us for the majority of this game. I didn't see us crumble, did you? We still took the game on, took risks and generally used the ball well. The pressure kept coming and we absorbed it.
Sometimes I wonder if people watch the same game that I do.
I'm not sure you can say that. How do you KNOW geelong wouldn;t have lifted (as the did last year when Colllingwood got in front)? You can't say with any certainty that Geelong would have lost if the dogs kicked straight.
Anyway, woulda, coulda, shoulda. They didn't and we're in the granny.
Mate, this is clearly a troll, and I shouldn't bite, but I have too.
You do realise that Brisbane LOST a final in '03? Or did that slip your mind? And Essendon 2000 may be better than Geelong, but if we win next week, that would be 2 flags. How many did that Essendon team win again?
How quickly people seem to forget and only remember what they want.

They were still a young side back then, still developing and still maturing. Most players don't hit their peak until around 27 years of age, and alot of Geelong's players have reached that age.

that's the dumbest thing i've read. but understand that you're only the messenger. Thomas is a tool.
hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah
You are a genius!
hahahhahahahahahaha
Goven the standard of your posts, I am suprised you can string two words together let alone divise a game plan to defeat an AFL team which is currently on the best 45 game streak of all time!
Even your own Hawks BF fans are embarrassed by you!!! hahahahahahah
The King!
Chosen One
essendon didnt half crack in 99 and 01 did they?
and facing the mighty demons in the 2000 grand final must of been hard. Im not sure how you draw any conclusion like that last night and when geelong win next week surely essendon 2000 falls further behind giving the so called super era only got one flag.
Who is a genius?
Rule No.1.
When on Big Footy forums, the urge to strongly disagree with a post from another person can arise.
If you feel the need to be sarcastic and call them a genius, you should always check your spelling.
This would then allow you to not come across as even a bigger tosser then the original post.
Fool.

Geelong flood the backline the oppostion kicks the ball around the perimeter then boots its straight to geelong how about MANNING UP ON THEIR FLOOD AND TAKING THE GAME ON. the doggies took em on and started to smash em last night.
If you mean to say Geelong has the better clearance players then, yes, you would be correct.
But if you're saying what I think you're saying... where's the LOL icon?

I genuinely believe that if the hawks can get past the saints, then they can beat the cats.
Both the hawks and cats have awesome clearance players.
Hawks forward line is much better, but cats have a better outside gamebreaking midfielder in ablett (yes I realise he can do it inside too).
It might come down to who comes out on top in terms of the hawks forward line vs the cats backline, as I think the midfields are evenly matched.
This is assuming the hawks win tonight.
The coaches tactics will be critical to the result as well.
haha thompson might have to coach for once!

appears many can smell the cats carcass.
wonder if many hawks players watched last nights match and are thinking same. if they're already thinking about next week, then we can pencil in cats vs saints for next week right now.
let me also remind people about how close the cats came to being bundled out in the prelim final last season..........

That's the way to beat geelong i believe.
None of this aimless banging the ball into the forward 50.
Handball and take the ****ing game on.
Easier said that done though, as one on one geelong have huge bodies, and tackle ridiculously well.
In terms of structure though, that's what i would be doing, coz geelong do flood well defensively.
Brisbane had the simplist gameplan in the AFL from 2001 to 2003, I think you need a few more details
I think it's more a case of them being so good the game plan looks simple. I know when my team is killing teams everything looks so straight forward.
Could of sworn I was referring to spelling. If you are going to pull up grammar, then it would be every post.
I stand by the point of my original post.
Do you disagree with that point?
