North Melb and us are 1000% worse than Essendon.

In fact we are 100% worse than North.

So I guess we also should be int he conversation about a priority pick?



Stan, genuine question, why do you think you’ve falling off the cliff like this? Yes, you’re undermanned,but the side that took the field shouldn’t be losing by over 100 points? Still talent on that list.
We are getting players back but fitness is a disgrace. Players are generally not fit enough for AFL and seems like they just don't care at the moment.

Pre season was a debacle for a number of reasons and with the initial HS protocols where we basically played a WAFL, a few injuries and then after that I'm not sure.
Seems players have no mindset to play AFL at the moment. Maybe the previous restrictions and the Covid crazy WA government finally broke some players. Not sure.

That comment is relevant for the entire season.

Yeah, bloody cheats giving Geelong -6 free kicks this year compared to Carltons +14! ;)


What's that saying about lies and damn statistics?

What it does do is mean that our loss last week isn't as bad as probably thought.

I heard that the majority of the playing group that have had Covid are having long term affects from it. Your blokes do look out of shape but if they are suffering long term affects, it'd be difficult to train to get up to AFL standard, then run out games as well.

I feel for them, it's not like it's a usual excuse for dropping away.

What happened with Jeremy Cameron today? No goals for him, who played on him?

Tom Stewart had 40 disposals and 14 marks, 70% in the defensive half. Were Freo kicking it to him/into his area alot or did Geelong have alot of uncontested possession in their defensive half?

What was the gist of the argument 'for'? I wouldn't have thought underperformance was a reason for a priority pick.


Because "they haven't won a final since 2004", I shit you not.
