Cooper goals


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Very composed as well generally. Looks like he's played 100 games already. Great find.

Interesting we're setting up our defensive zone well outside of our attacking forward 50 and basically letting them have use of it up to the square.

That's a new tactic isn't it?

Ahem, dare I suggest Max King is stamping his authority on the game.

Not just this game but the game in general. Opposition defenders are going to have nightmares for years featuring this bloke.

Absolute star is Maxxy.

31-0 for those not watching.

Geelongs first goal from a disgraceful free kick. Umpires please keep out of the contest.

Great first quarter....when Max is on, it totally straightens us up and the forward line looks deadly

Great start. Straight kicking makes a huge difference. Also kicking to forwards on the lead, bizarre it’s taken so long for them to realise this.

Max looked great, but if he’s further hurt the same injury from last week then he shouldn’t have been picked today. No use risking him in a nothing match.

Shocking tunnelling free kick against DMac that led to their 1st goal - stood his ground which he is allowed to do

When I heard the whistle I just assumed the Geelong player had been done for an unrealistic attempt. Incredible decision.
