I know we lost by 87 points, supposedly it was a one sided game!

[_DBF_]

Aside from Cachia IN, Young and Davey OUT what other list changes have we made?

 

[DoubleA]

Glossed over thing about the VFL team for this year...half of them are 18.
Will be tough coming up against Port/Williamstown type bodies each week.

 

[Infamy]

What happened to all our players that did so well against a full strength bulldogs side?

 

[TJTIGER]

Anyone see a team sheet ? Did anyone see the game?

Yep the downside to drafting so many kids is the VFL team will struggle as we need to play them all.

But no report on how the cubs went, I have only seen one post from a Geelong perspective with their goals and best.

Geelong 19.10.124 def Richmond 5.7.37
Geelong Goals: Walker 5, McIntosh 2, Blease, Gore, Cowan, Read, Jansen, Luxford, Kersten, Williams, Paliouras, Rees, Atkins, Maas
Geelong Best: Gore, Kolodjashnij, Walker, Jansen, McIntosh, Rees, Sheringham, Cunico
Reports: Nil
Injuries: Nil

Got some details from the Geelong board:

Any reports on the game as nothing has been posted on our board. Not sure how the Richmond boys went other than being well beaten. If McIntosh was amongst your best then Hammer (Shaun Hampson) must have had his colours well lowered.

Didn't play. Richmond were undersized. HMac marked well but not tested severely.

Re Richmond .....like the way Drummond and Menadue move, I thought Matt Arnott was probably your best but the player who stood out for me was Liam McBean. He looked a class above! Didn't focus on the Tigers too much though so could be completely wrong.

Wasn't the mantra to have a team capable of making finals so we have players to call on that are still playing as we charge towards a flag?

Why so shit as first year draftees shouldn't be an excuse

Because the more experienced players in the VFL team are terrible.

What? Of course it's a reason. We have 8 18 year olds to play each week. That's a third of the team. I guess we could always leave them out and try win at all costs though.

You bet we should. I loved it when we won the VFL premierships!

Need to strive for number 11

Why is that a reason ? Your telling me McKenzie , Menadue , Ellis , Butler and Castagna can't contribute to team success at VFL level. Move them all on if this is the case

No I'm saying it's their first game. Plus it sounds like our better VFL players didn't play.

Rumballs is old.
