Very odd game with the last quarter being a positive. Only one goal up until 3QT, but we managed to only lose by 10 points in the end.

Bianco was great on his debut. JDG was solid in the second half.

Still a lot of fundamental issues plague the team, but that won’t change for a while.

Hope Grundy is okay after sustaining a neck injury.

Time to make the call on a few players/coaching staff. Focus has to be on the future as the present isn't that great.

The worst possible result for us today. Shocking game. Absolutely shocking football by both teams. We won the second half but where was all that effort earlier in the game?

Now they've done just enough to delay the inevitable sacking of our coach. That is the worst of all possible outcomes. Because make no mistake Geelong played like a bottom four team today. They have no chance of winning the flag this year on that form.

We played poorly for some periods. Our inaccuracy was a killer.

Cats certainly didn't dominate the game as such.

Bianco and Poulter I like alot.

We are getting closer to the end for Pendles and Sidey though, age has caught up with them now.

I'm just glad it wasn't a blowout.

Ten points. Put up a good fight in the last quarter.

What happened in the last quarter?We kicked five amazing goals.Was that due to us playing a better brand of football,or Geelong just slacking off a bit?

Well, Coxy coming in asap is a must, releasing JDG
into the mid field permanently and getting Madge out of the forward line!

Congratulations and well done to Bianco on a very impressive first game.

Unfortunately Both Pendles and Sidey must hang up their boots.
I would move checkers back.
JDG must be a midfielder.
Callum brown is not afl standard.
"he who dares win" is not part of Bux dna.
It starts with the coach and the board for having a second rate side and a third rate admin

Again why wait until the game was just about done to play direct footy.

For 3 qtrs we tried to limit the opposition and that got us no where yet playing instinctive footy with nothing to lose got us within striking distance.

I’d rather we play like that all game and lose by 40. We would learn more than the shit we served up for 3 qtrs.

Well, not getting kicked off the park like some other teams are.
That's a small tick in our favour.

Well done to Bianco; we've got a keeper there peeps.

The goal less quarters are a worry though; occurring far too regularly.

Get McCreery back in next week, and Magden to the tip, lol.
