Go ROK. 5 goals..plenty of time

[Yuri H]

Ooof! Good whumping tackle on Ablett, just when I fuss we're not being tough. Not hard enough though ... he's up.

Round 3 2005....Down by 32 points at 3QTR against brisbane at the Gabba. Came back n won by 6...a 38 point turn around AWAY from home.

Round 5 2003 vs Melbourne.... 20 points down at 3QTR kicked 10 in last quarter....WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Love the confidence - let's go Swanners!

The Football Gods have not been kind to us today. Injury-wise, we are at our lowest strength all year and they are at their strongest.

They have the home town advantage of ground, crowd and umpires.

If we get away with anything less than a 5 goal loss, we should consider ourselves lucky.

[Donners]

As much as some people may not like to hear it, but we really missed the toughness of a player like Bevan today.

Perhaps, but we don't miss the lack of skill or football intelligence.

[Triple B]

Teddy has the turning circle of the QE2

[SwansFan1972]

Pods wouldn't have kicked five on Lewie ....

Bigger question is how ablett can run out of the centre untouched time and time and time again ...

[UglyDuckling]

its hard to blame our forward line when the ball hardly went in there and when it did it was via a poor kick.

Jetta similarly is a ball receiver not a ball winner who role is to run with the ball and deliver by foot. Its difficult for him to do that if we arnt winning the contested ball.

We have been smashed in the mid field in the 3rd and that has made everyone look poor

[Nich]

Note to Ted. Ted, the big nuffy Podsiadly kicks with his left foot. So mate, when he wants to turn and kick he's only going to go one way mate.

The announcers' wetting their pants every time Geelong gets the ball is getting awful tarrrrsome as well. Hopefully they'll accompany the umpires on their doomed croc-eaten vacation.

[Robbo]

Can someone explain to me the logic behind us not tagging Ablett?

[Matty10]

Perhaps, but we don't miss the lack of skill or football intelligence.

All the skill and football intelligence in the world does not help if you don't have a go - and Bevan always has a go.

I suppose it does not help when 3 of them actually played for Geelong.

Same thing's happening on the radio.

Thought they still are playing for Geelong
