I haven't seen a replay but I thought Joel pushed his head into the ground at the completion of the tackle.
Yep, that might have been the 50 then

On a side note how was Fyfe getting run down so many times. Caught more times than toadfish off the Barwon Heads bridge!
Quite soft. I’d like to see everyone held to that standard. Would quickly eliminate it from the game. It’s a big Richmond/Hawthorn “unsociable” thing done all the time by those clubs.I haven't seen a replay but I thought Joel pushed his head into the ground at the completion of the tackle.
Hey don't let that stop people picking hills to die on.but yet some think cant play at this level.
amazing...baffling.... but amazing.
We all get it really wrong sometimes.
Go CAtters
Completely in our hands. Be a brave individual to suggest we can't if the fixture plays out as scheduled (ie. Giants, Saints & Dees in Geelong).Are we able to keep a top2 position from now on?
It's funny how people see things differently. To me up until he got injured I thought Darcy could not have been more dominant. Until we took control completely I thought he was a chance to single handedly lead them to victory. I have rarely seem one ruckman dominate another more than Darcy did in the first half. He was unstoppable and except for some skill execution would have been the best player on the ground to half time easily.
Fresh meat is good. Hendo & Rohan next week… keep it fresh!Interesting that Dahlhaus and Higgins who have both been 'managed' in the last couple of weeks cracked in really hard last night. I have been very critical of Higgins but thought last night was his best game for us.
I wonder if the 'management' was a polite omission and a timely kick in the backside for them, or if both were carrying niggles and a week off to freshen up made all the difference?
Pretty big "if" considering he didn't actually score on either attempt.Glad someone was paying attention.
If he'd kicked those two goals...jeepers. He's actually quite a good kick normally...probably gassed from carrying the other 21
Yes sustained intense pressure. Haven’t seen it since bulldogs home game in 2017. Should we go with 4 smalls for finals? Rohan gets back in, so Higgins will be pushed higher up the ground but that changes the dynamic again. Which forward formula is best for finals? I thought the 4 smalls were collectively best on ground and had good synergy across half forward along with Parfitt.Sustained intense pressure from the first bounce and no weak links. We don't often see this but we did last night.
The stat that absolutely amazed me was marks inside 50: 28 - 2, Geelong's way
The 3-headed monster is Plan A, the 4-smalls is Plan BYes sustained intense pressure. Haven’t seen it since bulldogs home game in 2017. Should we go with 4 smalls for finals?

The 3 headed monster dead?
BuT dOeSnT kIcK gOaLs!
That’s the next step to take him to the elite bracket of small forwards.BuT dOeSnT kIcK gOaLs!
No just injured.Yes sustained intense pressure. Haven’t seen it since bulldogs home game in 2017. Should we go with 4 smalls for finals?

The 3 headed monster dead?
His shoulders are massiveThat was one of those rare, beautiful games where no one on the team plays poorly. Parfitt deserves a special mention for his match high 10 tackles. He slips under the radar a bit in amongst the gun mids but he was just brutal around the stoppages.
The 3-headed monster is Plan A, the 4-smalls is Plan B
Kicked a RiPpeR last nightBuT dOeSnT kIcK gOaLs!
Yes could be a mid because he has the tank. A bit light. Played wing in S.A. I think, but that could limit his ability to use his more creative in close visionary type game. He has good in tight vision and handballs.Was good last night. Still only kicked one goal in a thrashing. Maybe he develops into a midfielder?
Yes I think that’s the way they’ll go. Horses for courses but, I don’t think Jez, Tommy, Sav & Rohan will get a run. Dog hungry small forwards gave us repeat entries.The 3-headed monster is Plan A, the 4-smalls is Plan B
Are we able to keep a top2 position from now on?
And in that sense, I feel dirty suggesting it, but if Richmond could eek out a draw or a 1pt win (no other result), I'll be satisfied.If the Dees and Dogs finish top 2 (as they will be at the end of the round barring the biggest upset of the year), it doesn't matter. Will be an MCG qualifying final regardless. What we want is for Brisbane to miss top 2 to eliminate the risk of travel, so far, so good.
