So by sheer weight of possessions Geelong's midfield were smashed.
Geelong's mids laid more tackles but it's pretty obvious Port's mids were getting first to the ball and our mids were chasing.
Geelong midfield doesn't necessarily have to match the opponent's midfield in disposals but it needs to do a hell of a lot better than it did against Port.
That’s not telling the whole story. We also had Blicavs, Cuthrie and Mullin in there.
