The Saints have gone back in their shell, playing reactionary football to gellong. We are looking for "safe" passes rather than hard running forward movements. The thing that impresses me about the pussies is in contested situations we are happy to get a stoppage ball up, they keep the ball alive & steal possession at all costs.

We aren't playing badly. Our intensity is right up there, and skills aren't too bad considering the slippery weather.
But Geelong are just so good...
Harvey is standing up. This is where we miss guys like Thompson and Peckett - we are lacking in experience.

Is Mini running with someone?derby Street wrote:Their midfield is running riot - no wonder we don't look like it ! Any chance we could just shut down a couple of their guns - a better defensive (forwards and midfielders) effort this final might see us get some credibility back.
Would Birss been worse
Has he been given a shut down role?
They're awsome through the midfield - we cannot get a tackle to stick.
Considering the amount of inside 50's they've had it is amazing we aren't further behind.
Even when we hold them for a time - we seem to concentrate so much on this that we do not look like scoring ourselves. An opputunistic snap from Milne, a free kick from X and a good mark from Schneider is simply not good enough.
I would clear out deep in the atacking 50 leaving Roo and Milne/Schneids there and try to form a wall across the centre of the ground. The way Geelong are pushing back to double/triple team our talls mean we have no hope. (If it were Sydney or Saints doing this they would call it flooding). Then bottle up the middle of the gound.
Hopefully we could get some running goals from on 50 then. Otherwise it's the pies next week.
