It's only 16 points but feels alot more. If they take the fire Sinclair showed against Cameron we can turn this around.

Loved Windhager's attack on the ball & man, real intent.

Long has also been tough and even Gresham in the first qtr was going in hard.

Effort has been great. Disposal & decision making has been ordinary.

That half was terrible. On paper we have a good side, in reality we have no system going forward. Geelong players no what they're doing, we don't. Any chance we could have someone sit 40m out in our forward line as another option ? When was our last mark 40m out for a set shot? What do they train ? Bomb it to the goal square ? Why are our forwards always together ? SPREAD ! DECOY ! So many times Geelong punched it forward..CRUMBERS ?

Does decision making fall under ‘effort’?

We couldn’t even beat Colonwood FFS.
I think we are better than last year but very similar patterns starting to appear .No real game plan ,no plan B & our skill level against the better sides is just not good enough . We are a team of goers but no real class & we will beat some good teams but we will struggle make the 8 IMO

We just let Geelong stroll past us all the time.

Ryder's ruck work has been deplorable, its like hes actively searching for geelong players.

We just need to use it better going inside 50

The AFL average is 43% conversion. We are going at 34%. 29 entries for 10 shots on goal

10 shots from 30 entries for us now

Geelong 17 shots from 35 inside 50’s. That’s 49% for them
