[Corn Cobbers]

Bigger bunch of flogs than the Cats?

One Direction

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

30 points down at half time no chance unfortunately.

And Cats won't allow to them to comeback like Melbourne

 

[GoTheSwannies]

Are there any positives for Brisbane? I want some hope in this 2nd half

They can't play any worse?

And umps will have a look at the free kick count at half time and pay them a couple cheapies?

 

[The Casey Cat]

Playing into their hands. This sideways crap doesn't work. Chaos can get them.

Yep. Same against all sides really but especially us. Lions are actually moving it ok from half back to centre but the next disposal is taking too long every time.

Whinge about umpires all you want but Geelong are just good. That’s it.

Tall poppy syndrome. I love how everyone who doesn't follow Geelong is praying we'll lose.

It's because the teams they follow just can't sustain relativity.

 

[HTPunter]

When the umpires set a precedent in the first quarter where 19 tackles result in 0 free kicks, and then on the other side 16 tackles = 4 kicks with 0.5 seconds to dispose of the ball. Does this have a psychological effect on the game?

No it doesn't.

Another game in which they let Stewart do as they please. Coaches have nfi. Stewart falls apart under any defensive attention.

Stupid teams don’t deserve to beat Geelong. Bulldogs do it all the time, thinking having extra around the contest helps you win the game. Then Stewart breaks world records for intercepts and Jack Henry has about 8-10 himself.

Chris Scott isn’t a genius, he just does basic things well and lets the opposition implode. It’s ludicrous.

Brisbane winning the free kick count

 

[Jonno94]

Fagan just isn't premiership coach material, Geelong have had this game their way from minute one.

 

[Tas]

Bucks is now telling us what Brisbane need to do, has he seen Collingwood this year, he should say this is what I think... they should probably do the opposite.

 

[biggiemediums]

Aha,you even watch other games with one eye.

Maybe.

But judging by your posts, you watch games with both eyes closed.

 

[ptrg]

At the ground, McStay is a pea heart and is actively avoiding competing. Drawing laughter from the section I’m sitting in lol

You’d be cancelled for such an accurate comment if a radio or tv commentator

Maybe you should focus on Hipwood dropping a mark and falling over resulting in a goal and Zac Bailey resulting in another goal. Geelong should've kicked 4 more goals but Hawkins has the yips. You got looked after last weeks wit the umpires, You can't have it every week unless you're the dogs.

No turtle neck for Nick this week must have got the message hahah

Hmmmm brisbane winning the free kick count 11-8.

 

[Toump Ass]

Alistair Lynch is dressed like a homeless guy and he's talking on TV, awful. How much does foxtel cost? surely they getting enough money that they can get him some decent clothes to wear.

 

[Rusty Beam]

I note Freo genuinely ignore Alex Pearce, it's a great play because he's a horrid kick and has no creativity (although he can run and bomb).

Yet Brisbane happily pass it to Andrews so he can look around slowly, decide he can't nail a 60m 45 degree kick into the center of the ground, and chips it sideways.

Bloody oath if you want to turn a fast play into a stagnant slow play, give it to Andrews.

 

[Wosh]

If we'd only won 14 more games it could have been us in this final having a crack at Geelong. Robbed.

Same!

When Brisbane have been a bit chaotic though Geelongs extra is there OR their much hyped tall forwards offer **** all so Geelong get an intercept mark.

If they want to be chaotic they need to forfeit the extra at stoppages and then pray that the hype trio of McStay/Daniher/Hipwood does something in the air other than stand the mark.

Looks like he's wearing scraps of carpet

Maybe.

If any of McStay, Hipwood or Daniher could take a mark, bring a ball to ground, or simply just stop a Geelong defender taking an intercept mark then maybe that would have an effect too.

Of corse it does.
It rushes the side that gets penalised, whilst relaxes the side that gets a ride.
Anyone who says different doesn't understand the game

Yea he's been horrendous. Must have presence in some way in finals as a forward. He is having absolutely zilch and we can sag off and worry about others.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Harris is the least creative player in the comp.

Seriously I would never want the ball in his hands.

They almost need both Rich and Coleman just to make up for him.
