Playing badly and will need to lift. Dale Morris having a good game, ditto Daniel and Dicko. Too much handball and Geelong are the better side at the moment. They have missed a couple of easy shots as have we. Tom Boyd is doing better in the ruck than at full forward put our delivery in there is ordinary. Redpath is our best option for marking inside 50. As a spectacle, the modern game is too often un-watchable. Joy is often limited to seeing your team win. Let's hope we're not disappointed. We have played poor football for substantial periods over the last month. I'm over it. Come on you blokes - LIFT!

Correct.

We're trying to progress up the ground with use of handball as there's not wide option to kick to due to the shape of the ground. The Cats are able to find some space in the middle though luckily they've been wasteful and we've had some excellent individual defencive efforts to curtail their scoring.

His possessions in play are also uncontested and in wide open space, he doesn't have to kick over an opponent.

Need to find a forward who can win give us something in the last quarter. Getting absolutely zero at the moment. We can't possibly win without several lifting dramatically. Can't afford to concede any inside 50s in the last because it's an automatic shot at goal for Geelong.

Well, what can you say? They were better with the ball all day and we failed to capitalize on opportunities. We did lift in the third quarter but their counter-attacks were devastating. Three inside 50s for three goals says it all. We missed easy shots but so did they. It's easy to be wise after the event but J. Grant was wrong to lead for Redpath and Redpath was wrong to kick it to him. But sadly, to be honest, to have won that game would have been an injustice considering how poorly we played. We have to re=set and start all over again next week.

Not too many positives to come from this game but, I believe, Caleb Daniel, will have a decent career with us. He uses the ball well and gets a fair bit of it. Dahlhaus and Wallis were our best today - four quarter efforts. Wouldn't it be lovely if the last month has been our slump and yet we still managed to win three games! Go Dogs!

There just seems to be no atmosphere at that stadium judging by the lack of noise that comes through the TV.

It's funny that we have a situation where a situation where two Victorian teams play and only one side's supporters get a shot at seeing the game.

It's even funnier that the AFL will have to bail the Cats out this year irrespective of the sweet heart deal they get at their home stadium.

Not a bail out, they are complaining about paying the equalisation tax because revenue is down. Revenue is down because they have priced themselves out of the market. Try getting a ticket to go down there. You have to book a seat etc etc.

AFL's greed is now biting them on the bum with ticket pricing. Families can't afford to go and pay that sort of money week in week out and opposition supporters are priced out as well. I don't bother going to Geelong.

Disappointing result... Had them on toast in the 3rd qtr and showed a complete lack of composure going forward.. The fact that we gave up 3 goals from their 1st 3 F'50 entries made it hurt even more.

Always felt that if we could hit the front we wouldn't be headed, but sadly it wasn't the case.

Very poor in defence & attack this week... But we get a chance to atone next week.
