Sydney V Geelong

How frustrating was that quarter.

We actually looked as good as we have all year for much of it - but couldn't score.

They go inside 50 a few times and hit the lead.

We are going to give this game to Geelong on a plater if we don't switch on, it would be nice to only work half as much to get twice the result as geelong are!

They say good teams make you pay.
We better make them pay this 1/4

Pre-match and the commentators are already annoying me.

Whenever Dermott speaks I feel like I need a Meathead to English translation dictionary.

Exactly!

Schneider needs 'a kick up the arse'

Dunno whether Roosy will deliver it though

Too many stoppages to get the heart racing, but if that's the way we have to play to win it, so be it.

Good 2nd quarter, kept them goalless (although they did score 7 pts). Our forwards have to get in front - Scarlett and Harley are so good at spoiling when in a contested situation.

IMO He needs 2 weeks in Canberra.

Goodesy to the forward line - we need a spark there.

Hally is doing OK but is usually too far out when he gets it.

Leo is playing a fantastic game - bugger all stats but he is killing Kingsley.

Just the sort of football I was anticipating: in close, tight and low-scoring. If Kirk starts finding a bit of the ball and getting it out of those packs I think we may just edge ahead.

Hi from Ottawa. I'm paying a fortune for crap commentary from K-Rock. I can't work out who the Cats are playing but I'm right up to date on the menu at the Cats clubhouse.

The good sign is they say Scarlett is tiring already. Maybe we can literally run them into the ground. Just a quarter of clean disposals could win it for us. How come they keep saying kicking with the wind behind is a 3 goal advantage then no-one from either team can kick a goal that way?

I keep thinking our coach is smarter than theirs so let's see how it goes. It's just after midnight here and can't work out if it all seems a bizarre game through jetlag, the game or the atrocious commentary. Is one of the commentating dickheads Dermot?

What is it with Schneider and his set shots - another easy miss from in front.

Also a very disappointing miss by Maxfield.

We really need to make the most of our opportunities.

I don't think we need to play the stoppage game to win this, that's just the way we are choosing to do so.

Kirk has been very quiet.

Doyle needs to keep his arms under control in the ruck and not give away stupid free kicks.

I still think McVeigh should get more time on the ground.

Dermott is commentating for Channel Eddie. You're right though, he is a total @@@@head.
