Footscray lost players before this game and were cruelled by injury to others during. I reckon they had every right to celebrate, and if it took that many on the mark to ensure it, good on em.........hope to see it again.

The Dogs still have some very good players who can punish when they’re up and about. They’ve done us a favour with the cats plus the cats shot themselves in the foot (about time someone else did that), but it’s a good warning shot for not only a few weeks when we face them but this week with the saints. Underestimate ANYONE in this competition at you’re own peril.

I feel sorry for Lin Jong, poor kid, had a cruel run. Also dropped before 16’ finals series from memory and starred at VFL. Has talent

To celebrate like that after a missed shot in a HOME AND AWAY GAME is just childish and pathetic 

Not sure if serious. I thought it was great that they celebrated a hard fought win.

How nice it would be to see the Dangerfield era in Geelong amount to nothing.

Still annoys me they got him for virtually nothing.  With the Swans, Crows, Demons and Richmond the next 4 weeks they could be in real trouble.

Dangerwoodlett.   The three stooges.

Are the Dogs permitted 15 players on the mark? If not, could the ump give another kick with a 50m penalty?

Perhaps it should have been a 50. It all depends which player is on the mark of course.

Danger is overrated, such a terrible kick who snags the occasional freaky goal. Having said that, he’d be handy at Dees but his disposal is poor and commentators cream their undies over him

Just remember Rod how Cam Guthrie carried on when max missed his set shot to win the game in Rd1 , sometimes what goes around comes around , but no issues with the dogs celebrating, they nearly choked in the last few seconds twice in the space of two weeks and have had a bad run this season,

No, they are permitted one on the mark and the rest of the team can do what they like behind him.

It makes you wonder why 15 players don't go on the mark all the time. I know it would look stupid but why not put pressure on every goal kicker? anyway of course th doga re going to react the way they did. They celebrated because they won, not because Harry missed. 

But if you said at the start of the year that geelong wouldn't be in the 8 after round 15 you wouldn't believe it.

Watching the replay a few times. It was hard to work out who was on the mark. They were all very close to each other and jumping all over the place. I assume they were all behind the mark.  A trigger happy, biased or all about me umpire would have difficulty resisting temptation. If that scenario was in Adelaide last week and Port were shooting for goal, then most likely a 50 metre penalty would have been found.

Because normally you would have 15 opposition players lining up in the goal square for a certain goal ??

Interesting to see what the Cats do with Tim Kelly. WA clubs coming hard according to Jon Ralph after homesickness is becoming an issue for his partner. 

19 possessions and a goal in the last quarter. On the Geelong boards they are happy for him to go back as long as they receive 2 first rounders in return. ? They would also happily take Gaff in a trade.

New Umpire Rule for Round 15. Att all Umpires, please note that all Clubs with Letter starting with E and C, along with H are allowed players to have five paces off the mark line before calling play on.....  otherwise they have no advantage.....PR tweet....

Blues can roll Port today if they bring big time pressure.  it is Kade Simpons 300th, don't let him down boyz.

Two other huge games in the race for the 8 -   Adelaide vs West Coast and GWS vs Hawthorn.

Hoping for the Crows and GWS to get up.

Suns have about a 12% chance of beating Collingwood but stranger things have happened.

It's a shame Caleb Daniel was injured as imagine him on Tom Boyd's shoulders for the man on the mark...

If it was last week, the umpires would have reported our whole team behind the mark, for bringing the game into disrepute.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
