Game Day Around The Grounds Rounds 11 - 15

[Gethelred]

This thread is for discussion of the games we aren't playing in. It is not a thread to constantly refer to how well/badly we are going in our own games, nor is it a place to ruin the enjoyment of others with constant jabs or referrals to Carlton's woes.

Any posts that do so continuously will get deleted, and anyone who continues to push the envelope afterwards will find themselves threadbanned.

Thanks all!

Did I just hear 81k attendance for this game?

Wow... so, a bigger crowd than when we played them last week...

Is there a better team that managers their players better than the cats?

Throw any type of player at em and they’ll fix em up…

I thought I heard the same but 61k. Saw big chunks of vacancy early in the game

Geelong really do just boggle the mind. Every player they draft from obscurity turns to gold. Every player they trade for turns to gold.

Seemingly the only thing they struggle with is nailing early draft picks

Next…
Longmuir
Grub Clarko

Next 8 highest disposals are all from *, between 31 (Setterfield) to 26 (Martin).

They won a lot of the ball. Did **** all with it.

Their game is handball, handball, handball...

No wonder Geelong scored so heavily from turnovers...

 

[DirtyLeeds]

Such a brave effort, one more goal and a hundred point drubbing was on the cards, so brave

They must have a very good player development system - a much better player development system than say the all of the other 17 AFL clubs, a much much better player development system than say all the other 17 AFL clubs.
