Seemed to me that it was the Cats pushing lots of men back behind the ball to block space for our forwards to lead into. And as I mentioned in another post, it probably ended up costing them the game by not having any outlet to move the ball out of their defensive end in those last few minutes.

If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

They had about 16 players behind the ball at one point in the game, no doubt Sydney will be blamed for that

I thought Geelong played one of the most defensive, flood orientated games I have ever seen. And it nearly won them the game. Nearly

It's not luck. The defensive flood at the end is so dumb. If the defending side have the ball they cannot clear it because of the congestion and the fact that there is no one to kick to outside their defensive 50. The ball stays in the 'danger zone' with all the backs under enormous pressure and forwards down there not really knowing what they are doing likely to give away free kicks. If an umpy does find a free kick you are close to goals. Get them the hell out and trust your backs to clear it. I cannot see the sense in it, at all.Originally posted by punter257
