Oh my god... we got beaten by the best team in the comp... time to start tanking????
I'm actually quite imporessed by knights in this instence... he probaly knew after the 1st quarter we were gone.. and could have changed to a defensive game plan and scrapped maybe a 30 - 50 point loss.
Instead he stuck to his gameplan and kept the younger midfield on the ground most of the game.
Knights said from the start he expects we will have some great wins and some terrible loses but he will stick to his gameplan and stick to playing a young side.
Oh and a stat for you.. Geelong in their five or six outing at the dome have won by an average of 83 points... did anyone stop to think that they are just really really good????
- Centre clearances killed us. Geelong always had a man in front. From there, we were chasing all day after that
- Our confidence dropped ridiculously and with it our workrate which is what is most important in football, especially with the game style we are trying to play.
- Couldn’t really fault an individual player, Geelong were amazing, but I really think we should have played Johns, only to take key defender.
- With Lucas down and Gumby injured, this was reason enough to keep Keps, who never really got an opportunity at CHF, but no biggie really
- Hopefully we can bounce back.
