Game Day Geelong V Essendon Sun Apr 30 1:10pm MCG - definitely a country game

[Klink]

Here comes the junk time goals. Too late Dons

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

130 points for the 3rd straight week
And the one before that was 127

Our attack and ball movement are good.
Our defence is poor today. Way to easy to score against.

 

[allrighty]

Kick at Blitz at centre bounce

 

[The_Todd07]

Another game, another high acore conceded. This wont be sustainable against the better sides.

Kicking 20 goals a game and conceding the majority after building a game winning lead is more than sustainable

 

[Reppie]

Another game, another high acore conceded. This wont be sustainable against the better sides.

just need some wins for now...plenty of time to ramp things up.

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

No real defensive showing from either team today

Very bruise free game.

 

[Bunnings]

Anyone sticking up for Bruhn there

Knevitt is a no for me at the moment

and Bruhn, VFL time please

Another game, another high acore conceded. This wont be sustainable against the better sides.

Don't forget we're playing with a different look defence at the moment which is clearly having an impact on coherence

• SDK spending most of the game in the ruck, on the ball or up forward
• Tuohy a late withdrawl before the game & Bowes out with a calf injury in the first quarter
• O'Connor also spending more time further up the ground due to personnel availability or lack there of

This week isn't the norm, and we'll see improvements, especially as we get to a stage of being able to settle our defensive group

That was p*ss poor Sav

 

[Stocks_go_Up]

Sav is a panic merchant on his own in the back 50

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Ratugolea is a concern.

Anyone sticking up for Bruhn there

and Bruhn, VFL time please

Yep, I reckon Bruhn has been ok today

 

[Grimoz]

Shithouse!!!

 

[The Casey Cat]

That was p*ss poor Sav

Just absolutely disgraceful defense today all round. ####en sickening.

 

[Hello Kitty]

Danger is selfish + hopeless kicking set shots, at times.

Hawkins is the most unselfish player, often gives away goals for younger players + backs

With Hawkins having eight goals + in the goal square, do the right thing, Dangerfield

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Lucky Hawkins kicked a bag, otherwise this game would’ve been so much closer.

Wideman 5 lol ******* hell.

 

[DangerHere]

Sav, was, is, will always be a punter

 

[MisterMarcus]

Gotta love the Debbie Downers predicting doom and gloom because Essendon got a few junk-time cheapies......

He was lost then. Had no idea what to do

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Disappointing last 10 mins but happy with the win.

 

[catters05]

We are in the 8

 

[StonedCat]

A win is a win is a win is a win

 

[The Casey Cat]

Gotta love the Debbie Downers predicting doom and gloom because Essendon got a few junk-time cheapies......

Defense was diabolical all game. No where near good enough.

 

[allrighty]

Was a five goal win good enough?

 

[Baudolino]

SDK can replace Sav once Stanley and Henry come back
