Game Day Rd 3, Brisbane vs Geelong, Sat Mar 29 2025 7:35 pm @ Gabba

[My Tilly]

What does Clark do?

They're all kids developing. He's played 19 games now.
Why does everyone expect a superstar immediately?

 

[Two Planks]

It's OK Oliie will get picked next week and have another chance to do 2 5ths of nothing

 

[Romeoh1]

Was always a bit of an ask to get the win tonight but haven’t really gotten much from the forwards tonight- makes it too hard. Haven’t held it in the forward line. Too many long bombs to contest we lose every time. Haven’t played smart footy. Outcoached again. Umps ordinary.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Our fitness is a huge worry, can barely run out 3 quarters let alone 4.

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Turned it off after that goal.

Not good enough.

A lot to work on

 

[cat_shack]

left at 3/4 qtr time. Umpiring has to be the worst I’ve seen in a long time. Absolutely influenced the contest and changed the game. That Atkins holding the ball on halftime was abhorrent. Fair play to our lads. Umps cooked us, and humidity was out of this world. On to next week

 

[Cataholic]

Watching the forward jog out of F50 when they offer no pressure comes down to intent and effort.

And they aint got none

GO Catters

We won't win many games of footy playing random quarters.

Got to work hard across 4 quarters, not just 1 or 2.

 

[cats_09]

Play in front Ollie instead of sneaking out the back looking for a cheap Joe the Goose.

Should drop him for Mannagh next week.

**** it, let's play with our own mosquito fleet

Outs: O. Henry, Bowes
Ins: Mannagh & Wiltshire

Neale on injury watch with that ankle, along with Stewart

 

[ToreadorMarch]

7.6 to 1.1 in the second half

Pantsed

 

[cat_shack]

Our fitness is a huge worry, can barely run out 3 quarters let alone 4.

It’s not fitness. The humidity tonight was out of control. Would of felt like playing in an oven

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Another Ashcroft 1 hander not paid.
If one of his 1 handers was worth 10 points it would have won tonight.

 

[Munich]

Humphries is a revelation

 

[geelong_crazy26]

Haven’t really gotten much from the forwards tonight- makes it too hard. Haven’t held it in the forward line. Too many long bombs to contest we lose every time. Haven’t played smart footy. Outcoached again. Umps ordinary.

Something like 35 to 11 inside fifties at one point in the second half.

I don’t have how good your forwards are. Nobody playing forward is going give you much with those inside fifty numbers.

Absolute second half belting from the Brisbane mids

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Goodbye everyone.

 

[cats_09]

Another clear drop from Ashcroft in the guts which would have given us a centre clearance, but ignored by the umpires

Even the commentators questioned it

 

[hoopla]

Ashcroft drops/throws ball. Play on.

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Our forwards have been completely useless tonight. End thread

Whole team really from Q3

 

[Baudolino]

**** it, let's play with our own mosquito fleet

Outs: O. Henry, Bowes
Ins: Mannagh & Wiltshire

Neale on injury watch with that ankle, along with Stewart

Ollie Henry will come good again. Hopefully Bowes is gone though, sick of the sight of him. Fraud of a player.

 

[My Tilly]

This Will Ashcroft is something else. Be great to have someone like that but Brisbane built their success on being sh*t for a decade.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

What the **** is Derm on about? We weren’t run over last week, we came home like a freight train and almost snatched it.

Yes, this is actually the opposite to last week. Last week we lost it in the first half. This week we lost it in the second.

 

[kickazz]

Midfield the Achilles heel again. Going to be a long year.

It's a weakness but the forwards have been so much worse tonight

 

[D BRIDGE]

Neale caught behind all night.

Been shocking.

 

[patience]

Awful half of football. Packed up at half time.

 

[Mad_Hatter]

Something like 35 to 11 inside fifties at one point in the second half.

I don’t have how good your forwards are. Nobody playing forward is going give you much with those inside fifty numbers.

Absolute second half belting from the Brisbane mids

Forwards don't just play inside their own 50, like that contest there across the middle of the ground with Neale being completely out played and out marked, THAT is where they sucked badly.

 

[Cataholic]

Midfield the Achilles heel again. Going to be a long year.

It's starting to look that way.
