Do we have any plan whatsoever as to how our forward line should function and how we should be delivering the ball??

Geelong didn't want to play hard contested football in the first half refusing to kick it long and take it up to the Bombers physically at the pill so Bomber Thompson must be held accountable in a few areas.

It should be kick it to Kingsley.
"to" being the key word.

On a side note, did Milburn's mark and goal on the goal-line on the final siren last night cost The Great Man his 50?

I think it may have, but Kent has never been one for statistics, hes a team player. Will just get it next week.

Kent's been one of the few players I haven't been disappointed in lately. He's leading as well as he ever has but again last night, the brilliant minds in the coaching box decided it was better to bomb the ball in one-on-one with Kent and Fletcher. No surprises that Fletcher was close to best on ground as a result.

Keep it up Kent. They'll eventually work it out that if they can hit you with decent passes all day we'll be closer to a flag contender and you'll be closer to a 75-80 goal per year full forward.

Had nothing to do with the coaches box, just bad decision making by the ball carriers, you do not have to be a genius to work it out do you?

The Great Man is currently sitting sixth in the goalkicking.

He is not the problem this season.

Ablett and Kent...
Yep, I did say a handful of players, and he is definately one, he tries his guts out week in week out, gets absoloutely poleaxed everytime he goes near the thing and gets stuff all from the umps. Other players who can at least hold their heads high, Corey, Ling, Mooney, Scarlo etc.(same old same old in our team)
