Let’s just get the job done against Carlton lock in 4th and then hit that 13 game winning Geelong team, which would be coming off a month of soft wins and the bye with our trademark in your face tackling and pressure.

We got this, let’s just hope on draw between Brissy and Melbourne because then we are off to the SCG again.

I’m not reading any further! The sky hasn’t fallen yet

But I’ll call out the media/afl for condemning the racial abuse of the Melbourne player as it should, but then continually showing Jack after he was injured to get the crowd booing.

No one deserves to be bullied.

Dammit, Ginnivan right up there as a favourite to watch.



I hope we lose next week, and help get Carlton into the finals.

Hopefully meet them again in the Granny, and beat them by a point !!!

I’m with you, the sky isn’t falling. I honestly think we needed a loss before the finals. We just need to win next week and we are top 4.

In some good news, apparently Finn McCrae had a great game in the VFL today. So maybe he gets a game next week in our midfield.

Now it’s a simple equation. Beat Carlton. We finish top 4 and they miss the 8.

Bring on next week.
Yep, I always had this penciled in as a loss so not a problem, got to lose one eventually and better now than in 3 weeks time. Plus a reality check before playing Carlton is a good thing!

Yep, wake up call from a genuine top side/contender on their home turf, boys playing with the flu, compare where we are now to last season, im pretty happy.

Now to smash the blues

Ginnie to kick 6 and earn the booooooos!

Agree. Callum B is unfairly maligned.

Thinking they stuffed up the selections please no more brown brothers must play Carmichael in place of Adams and McRae for JDG
V blues
Out JDG again and Ginny
In Carmichael and McRae
This was the loss we were meant to have
Best to happen now and definitely not next week
Amazing that we can still drop out of the top 4 even with the winning streak it’s unheard of.
This time of year it can go unfortunately down the drain quickly
Time to reset and plan for blues
Get selections right this time
And bloody win

I thought he was alright, he seems to have matured since his last senior game

Grown a bit even

I still reckon this seasons fixture was utter shit for us, in more ways than one. Like, forget the earlier games, how the hell can a side, Geelong, get such easy pesy last two games of the season, a side that made a Prelim last season, while we just missed the spoon, and finished second bottom, and get two very hard matches to end the year ?? By all rights, we should have played the Suns this week, and the handbag Cats should have played the Swans today, on the SCG. ?? AFL honchos do us no favours, ever. Ever.
