That's what they can do - unfortunately, while we struggle to get a goal.

It's the missing part of the HTB rule...take on the tackler, you're gone.

I have said this many times
the cats do everything to keep the ball moving forward at all costs.
the saints play for numbers round the ball and stoppages
the rules favour the former's game style, you cant blame the umps

too slow. We get the ball inside 50 and it's way to congested and they have the advantage. They get the ball inside 50 on the move, and usually to advantage. If not they still have a chance. Unless we change this, I cannot see us winning.

We broke our last few games open by switching to this style of play late in the game recently. Wet weather won't help, but maybe we can perfect the switch tonight.

i think they've stopped us from switching so we can attack the other side of the ground. Schneider is saving us up forward.

Looking slow and skills are not great.

Every time Geelong go foward they look like scoring. WE are just kicking and hoping again.

Need a massive effort in the second half

Johnson will get weeks.


Goddard is having a howler.

Geelong are just smashing us on the turnover.
Varcoe just getting some cheap, cheap touches but using them well.

Geelong won that quarter easily... Just used it better...

Long way to go.

yeah. seems like our fwd line is congested then once they rebound they get it into an open fwd line. we need to move it quicker when we get it so our fwds have a chance.
