Yeh, those calibre of players really are equal to players like swan, Elliott, moore, fasolo, taylor adams etc etc, apart from Duckwoods bro, I haven't heard of any of them. Get real.thompsoc wrote:This is Geelong's injury list

Every team has injuries.
Collingwood is probably in the bottom 25 percentile.
But we had 5 flag stars playing in the vfl
they weren't good enough to play with us this week.
That shows our list isn't crash hot.
It shows our coaching staff isn't crash hot.
And it shows on the ladder.

hate to break it to you, but Swan ALONE has them ALL covered for games / experience / value to the side!!
I dare say we'd be a better side in 2016 if our injured players instead of those currently injured were Wills, Sier, Marsh, Crocker, phillips, Gault, sharenburg and McCaffer!!!
Not that i wish injuries upon anyone!!
No wonder i'm rarely on this site anymore!
Trying pure logic here is an absolute disaster mate. You get a far better and intelligent response talking to Chimps at the bloody zoo..
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

A very frustrating game to watch. We were good for patches of the game but then reverted back to our old sloppy ways and ineffective disposal. Turnovers killed us as did the lack of defensive pressure.
Three of our blokes running to a melscum player while their opponents run freely behind them to collect the handball. Lost count the amount of time that happened.
Our players run around like they have no clue what's going on. That's a true sign of the structures breaking down and people not knowing what their bloody role is.
Also how many times do we bomb it hopefully out of defense only for the damned ball to come straight back in.
Our defense is a shambles. No leadership or structure. Where was the forward line pressure? The ball escaped quicker than it came in.
And to top it off we played 3 ruckman and still got smashed.
The bye couldn't have come quick enough.

Jungle Jim Lazza has spoken.
again you missed the point of the geelong injury post.
It was never about the quality of the injuries it was about the numbers.
That parrot of yours has no idea about pure logic
because it has a one track brain that can only take in a few instructions.
Sick of your constant put downs.
Will take my cue from the way you post from now on ...you tulip!

I don't think so. You can stitch the f*cking Care Bear back together if you have either the time or inclination, and shoot it over to me for further re-dismemberment [is there such a word?]. Perhaps re-dismembering?jackcass wrote:Yeah, but by Friday next week you'll be hunting for all the pieces so you can put it back together in preparation for the Dockers game... fleeting anger fully subsided, rational thought back in place...piedys wrote:Dear Lazza [as in "Dear, oh dear, Lazza ],
I am currently ripping the stuffing out of your Buckley Care-Bear, then beheading it, and punching it on the nose three times.
And just drop-punted it's carcass down the corridor. So there. Take that.
Dyso
Failing that: purchase new Care Bear, and reload.
Hmmm. Good question - i'll check the inventory and come back to you on that one....Mugwump wrote:I suppose a replacement blow-up-doll is out of the question ?

A security guard at one of the Bunnings stores got caught peering through the shelving at the checkout girls with his hands full if you know what I'm saying.
They don't have security wondering around their anymore.
And about the game, well thank %$^ for 2010. That's all I can say. This lot have been waiting since 1964. Can they win it before 2024, or will they make it to 60 years?
