If you're happy with that first half effort then I bet you're lobbying hard for Neeld to be our coach next year.

You've found me out, stu. I'm getting the campaign rolling as we speak, starting with a facebook page.

People having a go at any of our forwards should suspend themselves from posting for at least the rest of the day. Essentially the whole game has been played in their half.

We should be more worried about the fact we have barely made any adjustments to our style despite the weather. Unbelievable.

Only two less contested disposals, 17 less overall and 100 tackles.

All three of these areas we would be significantly behind opposition sides in the first half of the year. Need to clean up turnovers and improve our ball use around half forward going forward.

Trengove is not a captain and a very ordinary player since the sling tackle.

He is sitting third in our disposal count. Yeah he isn't Joel Selwood but he hasn't had a horrid day compared to everyone else out there.

Don't think you can read too much into stats today given the conditions and the efficiency of our opponents.

Been disappointed with Neil Craig today, very few adjustments, poor setup, no attack, and the effort in the first half was quite poor.

Especially when they don't back up your arguments.

I said I'd be ok with a 10 goal loss. We just went over that.

We'd have lost by twice as much under Neeld.

This is the toughest game most teams play all year. That we have to do it in Geelong every year is a downright disgrace.

We fought, we lost, we move on.

I've seen worse. Much much worse.

You would see two VERY different games today if you were choosing between watching the game and watching the stats.

It must be that everyone is watching the stats except you, eh Stu?

I really am tired of [censored] commentators mocking this club. Laughing at the stats.

Had the tele on mute since half time.

A tense last few minutes though.

I had a carton bet with a mate that we'd keep the Cats under 100 points.

Time to blow the froth off one.

If there's one person in the whole league that I cannot wait to see the back of, it's Johnson. Smug pr*ck.

He attacks the ball....he can be smug!

Selwood - 124 wins from 150 games.

Sylvia - 150 games...how many wins?

We officially hold the record for the least inside 50's ever. 19 we had today for the whole game. No wonder our forwards couldnt get it.

Anyway we lost to a formidable team and a team like geelong should thrash a team like us. At least it wasnt 100 points.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
