Family Feud surveyed 100 people and the top response was from a goal after the siren.

Second highest response was bad tackling.

An incredibly soft tackle at that.

Anyway back to Finals Week 2.
Let's hope the GWS v West Coast game is a good one.
As a Geelong supporter my season was over last week.

Luke Shuey was as tall as Grant Denyer by the end of the tackle :D

And had the Polec tackle been decent/hard it wouldn't have mattered how tall Shuey was

If you can't tackle hard it that situation in a final when can you?

GWS losing Mumford and Cameron might not be a bad thing for them.

Mumford looked slow against Adelaide and Lobb looked wasted forward of the ball, Cameron is a loss, but being forced to inject some run and smaller forwards can only help them as they looked far too top heavy against Adelaide.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Agree Booney, way too top heavy last week but I'm not sure Lobb is any sort of ruckman. Doesn't like body contact

Could be excused for not executing a perfect tackle after 140 minute of finals football, doesn't change the fact it was an arm lift which is play on.

The ironic part is it was his first tackle for the year. ;)

I've posted before my disbelief at how Polec keeps getting a game.
I just can't take them seriously whilst he's a regular in their line up.

When Polec and White were at their running best in 2014, they were the difference from Port winning and losing. Amazing how things can change so quickly with injury and age.

Rumor mill in full flight about Naitanui being a chance to play his first game of the year for the Eagles this week. Reports he's been in full training for over a month and is in top nick.

They would be stark raving mad to play him. Absolutely mad.
