Just wanted to thank The HawthornFc for taking Frost out of our Backline. Cheers. 

The difference now with Tomlinson backing up May and Lever is like chalk n cheese. And agree thank HFC

This game just re-affirms how big it will be beating Cats and Hawks because both good in spurts but average for vast stretches.

And I'll take Geelong having 5 goals or less next halftime next week.

Yet another goal from

a Selwood throw 

The one thing this shows is that we cannot allow Geelong too much time on the ball.

Frosty! 

Spud would have been proud of that ear warmer.

The cat's aren't exactly fast are they. I hope the Hawks stay in this game and make them earn it.

Free kick Geelong, that's what happens when you don't keep up the payments Hawthorn

Jeelong get away with ABSOLUTE murder!!!

carlscum have what, about 80k+ members and only 24.5k can turn up? 

May vs Hawkins is going to be a belter.

Going to be hard to beat Geelong and the umpires next week. Absolute armchair ride here.

very much agree

Cats just that little better and of course a couple of goals in those last few minutes.

Hawkins not afraid to use his body and risk a free when rucking in the forward line. Easily negated by a big leap and knock but the trouble is you can't be sure where the big tap will go to.

Does anyone else think Geelong are the most boring team in the AFL...

I will go back and watch a bit more in a mo but seriously they make doing some housework interesting.

Whorethorn are having a real crack, but their skills are shocking. 

Jeeelong are playing the full press game. 
 

very interesting tactics

Geelong’s defense is their main strength. Should be a low scoring affair. They are immensely gettable though.

Higgins done a hammy

Higgins out with a Hammy. Who’s going to snipe Oliver now?

Geez Geelong have been unimpressive. 

May and Lever will be salivating at how slowly Geelong are moving the ball.  If we keep the defensive running effort up, harassing the ball carriers and stay reasonably well organised, it'll be an intercept marking party.

They are in real trouble without Dangerfield to break things up and create attacks.

I'm quietly hoping Petracca puts on a show to make them really feel how much they are missing that attacking power.

Oops, and that's Higgins gone, so they are even thinner for the inside-50 deliverers.

Selwood the [censored]

Wow, how slow was Mitchell then?  When we play Hawthorn Jones should tag him for the speed advantage.
