      Exactly. We didn't lool like dropping these types of games in the run up to the finals last year. I'm not super confident about the next 2 weeks now.

      The fact we haven't beaten good opposition at full strength is a concern coming into the finals.

        Hall is an impressive ruckman.

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

              I'm a big MO fan but maybe thay need to drop him next week for Nick because he's been playing like this most of the year

                I wonder what excuse will be wheeled out for this display of mediocrity today.

                  Also they should drop B Hall as well and play some youngsters. This season is gone anyway. They'll be only making up the numbers in the finals. I wonder if they'll finish 4 in the end. It doesn't look that way now.

                    John Barnes is a massive tool.

                      What a horrible game. Our midfield delivery forward was pathetic, as was the pressure from the forwards to keep it inside our 50 when it actually got there. And where were our forwards for most of the game? Grundy touches it maybe 5 times a game, and while he usually scores a couple of goals, he is a waste for the rest of the game. It is so obvious that we don't have a decent-sized, experienced backman in our team.

                      To make matters worse, the Bulldogs just won.

                        And our percentage just dropped 3 pts.

                        We'll be 4th or 5th after this round.

                          Baz should have been used in the ruck or down the ground earlier, as soon as he was moved started getting involved but in a game that was already lost

                              Pathetic. Now we have to rely on the Dees to lose a game for the rest of the year if we want to keep a top 4 spot.

                                i just can't believe i witnessed that @@@@ - an absolute disgraceful performance

                                geelong pressured and tackled all day and always seemed to have more players around the pill and on their own

                                our skills were non-existent and when you have LRT in the forward line you know alarm bells are ringing

                                and why the @@@@ were all our kicks out of defense to the boundary line - our skills were @@@@ yet we persisted going there all day

                                i don't know what to think for the rest of the year after that, but there is no way we can play worse and i'm not sure playing brisbane and carlton in the next few weeks will make us "ready" for the first week of the finals

                                barry hall had a dirty day but the delivery was shocking to him and scarlett just owned him really -

                                goodes tried hard all day but did nothing at all with his touches and i'd say ROK and ablett were the only other real contributors - c bolts did well on G ablett
