Review What do you mean we f**king won at Geelong?

Liked some of sinns game, has to really clean up his kicking

Second half dross started with the go slow for last 2mins of 2nd qtr. Amazes me our coaches can’t see attack was the best form of defence.

We looked spent in the second half. Not sure if that game style is sustainable.

Only saw the 2nd half really but Wines was good.

So basically it was your fault

 

[RossFC]

We lost the Inside 50s: 53 to 52. We'll get 'em next week lads.

Well done Power!!

Jee-long are despised by most Victorians, so you've done us a massive favour!!

hopefully he keeps it up, hard to see him doing so due to more mid rotations when rozee is back and less cba's for wines

The real winners are the Inside 50s we made along the way

Sinn seemed to pick the right options but shank the kicks. Not a big deal first game back. Had a weak defensive effort but thats not unusual in our defence. I'd let him take kick-ins and see if it helps settles the nerves.

We had a s**t list 15 years ago.

nice of you to pick 15 years,fact is we have always been poor in front of goals. Tonight 8-2 and we win last week 5-18 and guess what ?

Given how pedestrian and workman like our small forward line is, I wonder if there’s any chance of the captain spending more time up forward. Or alternatively the wing.

Sinns body shape has bulked up. Didn’t recognise him at first.

I suspect who should of been captain was shown tonight, not the first time we’ve made a mistake like that.

Great game, we were never going to play 4 quarters of that type of footy like the first IMO. Second half umps helped a little close the gap but Geelong closed us down better once Stanley was subbed.

Considering I I was expecting us to be thumped, great effort. Let Ken go, in the heat of the moment intense game, he’s allowed to enjoy the moment.

Happy to see J Mead get a run at it, he’s improving each game

He’s like a lot of modern day players , poor kicking skills.

We weren’t spent - we went into our shells because of the defensive game style.

I agree, I think Collingwood showed that last year, played intense in burst especially the third and then were very adept of clogging up the play too rest.

i like Half forward rozee

 

[VineValerian]

Phew!
What a tussle.
Credit where it's due - amazing result.

We tried our level best to p*** it all away in the 2nd half, but hung on.
Where's that effort and intensity been for most of the past 7 years?
Needed a big percentage booster though
Bank the 4 points and move on.

What pleased me most was that the newbies weren't intimidated by the big occasion. Mead, Sinn and Visentini all contributed, and had a decent crack. MG quiet, but did a few good things too.

 

[PJ Power]

I just want Sinn for now to attack the ball ferociously and use his leg speed from HB to create run and carry. Also to defend intensely when it’s his turn to. The kicking should come. I liked that he was still involved in the play late and trying to evade opponents and get some speed on the ball.

MG quiet, but did a few good things too.

The clutch goal in the final quarter to stem the flow was amazing.

I do too.

The thing is you can run through the centre square from half forward anyway. Theres no reason to start Rozee in the centre where he gets bodied by the more experienced mids. Let him go through at pace.

The main reason I thought we'd win tonight is because Rozee wasn't out there for Kent Hinkley to misuse.

Disposal was bad and he got lost out the back a few times but I liked how he took the game on a bit.

 

[PAFC04]

Great win, I have said this before. Playing breakneck speed footy as we did in the first half then expect the same in the second half is not feasible because we ain’t that fit to do so. Need to control the game with speed, control and skill to pace ourselves, once we do then I will call it. Frenetic footy tonight, nearly finals level of footy.

LOL gotta love the caller who rang 5AA after the game to complain about the umpiring, which was so biased in Port's favour. How often have we been screwed by the umpires at the Cattery - nice to get one back for once.
