Our fortunes reflect tactical changes in how our opposition plays against us.
The competition has moved away from Collingwoodball, that deliberate attack at all costs despite what defensive vulnerabilities open up. Gave us opportunities to score that we might not have earned
Melbourne figured out that if you are more deliberate in your build up play we can't cut them open on the quick counter. Teams are holding a deeper defensive shape more which we can't get through, since we are weak aerially.
After the Carlton game teams have been setting up more aggressively at stoppages safe in the knowledge that we can't go with them.
Carton played with near zero width against us letting us be defensively compact, giving us the space to move into on the offense. No team has done that since.
It textbook cutting off options until we have none. As each option is removed we become more predictable and easier to stop on offense.
Last quarter we had so much of the ball and field position but it was as if we didn't know how we wanted to score. Which was why we were just bombing it in.

Nah it’s all good. I enjoy the banter.
Happy for people to “come at me” though if they don’t like something I post. All part of the fun and I do get a laugh at how seriously some take it.

I know they are not 'In season' losses, but Geelong lost the two Finals in 2014 (to Dawks and norf) and the opening two games of 2015 (Dawks and Freo). So his coaching has now had two runs of 4 successive losses.

Yes, there was a post calling him an absolute flog. Deleted?
My statement holds. You can never get enough games into Toby...and he was only one of many problems on Saturday!
I think it was referring to JackFlash?

Not sure if there's a post that's been deleted, but I've not seen any post calling Jumping Jack a flog
Looking at his collection of posts from this thread alone, there full of likes & loves and any quotes are thanking him for his info

I have a screenshot. But let’s leave it there. The worst offender had second thoughts + deleted it, replies went with it.

If I can suggest that you check your screenshot then - as Art Vandelay_ suggested it does seem you may have confused posters and whom you're standing up for as you may be inadvertently referencing the wrong person

It’s very clear from the screenshots I have the flog comment was directed towards Jack.
Also Warhorse reported that comment too.
The main point is Jack didn’t see the derogatory comments.
He’s said he enjoys the banter.
It’s all finished.

Yes!!!
It was + thank you.
New board rule to ensure this never happens again: no username can share the same four letter sequence with another username

Ooops!
It was Pz
That’s correct!
Still, my point stands, disgusting behaviour towards another Geelong member.
Hope Jack Flash is all right?

Yet you brought it up ..look I get it but from memory that post wasn’t directed at Jack unless my memory is failing me
In any case it’s deleted so I don’t see the need to drag it up again?

Best just to accept that everyone is an insufferable flog.
