Last night the future of Geelong - minus Sam DeKoning(who you say is worth 6 goals and is therefore clearly THE most valuable player in the history of the sport, but official ratings say is the 37th best out of 64 key defenders who have played in the AFL this year based on average actual performance,) who played the team who were sitting 10th on the ladder after 9 games, with the 10th best percentage, and who were average age 14 months younger than the youth of the Cats, and who had played on average 17 games less than the youth of the Cats, and they were off a 5 day break in high humidity, and with virtually zero home ground advantage, and who rested 4 of their best 22, with Weller, Rosas and Powell already missing through injury or suspension....and you were defeated by 64 points.
How do you plead?
"We are shit your honour."
And what else did Geelong have missing apart from the man worth "6 goals?"
