Should be we are IN danger….. of not making the eight. Severe mental lag… given the evidence of this year. Geelong are an average team.

And to me that is always a mystery.
Kardinia park is a death pit, especially if you are a non Vic side.
You go there, take the loss and focus on your next game

Getting a bit precious about not being able to go back to back
Yes I’m oddly freaked out & hoping it will lead to the Powerball numbers for Thursday also being right

Credit to Fremantle, better team and earned the win. The Jordan Clark curse continues.
The thing that gets me about these sort of losses (it reminds me of Gold Coast earlier in the year): you'd think the other team was the reigning premier. You know, just a dour struggle that is turned on the back of who makes more critical mistakes and who converts their chances better. But it's Freo with the cool heads, kicking the goals they should kick and punishing opposition mistakes. And it's our two best players who are among the biggest culprits: Jeremy Cameron setting the tone by butchering a couple of golden opportunities to give us a 3-4 goal lead to head into the quarter time break and continuing to kick us out of it for the remainder of the afternoon; and Tom Stewart turning two free kicks in crunch time of the fourth quarter into two smothers by Freo, not to mention hitting a Freo forward lace out from a kick in where he took an unnecessarily risky option and resulted in another goal.
We don't have to win the flag, but we have to find a way to pinch games like that if we're fair dinkum. Kudos to Longmuir for coming up with a great plan and to the Dockers for bringing the heat and executing to perfection.

The cats will easily account for my pea-hearted mob next week, put your life savings on it 
Much as I enjoyed the game and the win, Geelong were a bit unlucky. If not for a mad two and a half minutes where we kicked 3 goals, Geelong losing two influential players and Cameron kicking like he was still cross-eyed it would have been a totally different story.

Cats suddenly don’t want to play all their home games at GMHBA
Your not English are you? Sound like a pom talking about the Ashes
As a long suffering rusted on Freo supporter I'll take a win anyway we can. Just taking the rose coloured glasses off occasionally.
I’m with you mate. Long suffering indeed. I really liked our effort and speed today though. I thought we won game fair and square, Geelong didn’t give it to us.

Like all that was set in stone? If the 3 goals weren't kicked it changes the future course of

Geelong would of sealed finals yesterday. Absolute disaster.
Think we will be seeing a red hot Geelong next week. They are too professional to serve that up again.

Losing Hawkins is bad, but Cameron covers.
Losing Blicavs is worse. No one can cover his versatility.
