Good to see I'm not the only one thoroughly unimpressed with Geelong.

Now of course they'll probably come out next week and play a manic fast game or something, but if this is how they play next week, I like the chances of our defensive set up against their ball movement.

    Just tuned in. Is it just a scrappy game or is it the 'state of the game' conversation the commentators are suggesting?

    If Clarkson can rebuild Hawks he truly is a genius. Should have taken the big money and gone elsewhere. They are ordinary

    Just two mid to lower tier teams; Cats are missing their cream and Hawks are just bog ordinary

    Whatever the umpires have done to Geelong this game, that free kick against them for a "hold" in defence is just terrible. That was just strong bodywork from the Geelong defender. No hold. Never should have been penalised.

    Selwood rubbish again 

    Absolute stager. Make everything look worse and never get called on it. Good part Frosty plays for Hawks

    The down field free is there to penalise players who thump players who have disposed of the ball. But those [censored] umps pay it for a slight push in the back maybe a millisecond after disposal.

    I know it’s just a game but I feel like I genuinely hate Joel Selwood.

    Thank god Frosty plays for the Hawks.

    I've not seen too many worse performances by an individual than this.

    That said, I hope karma bites Geelong here. Their game style is awful and they'll get destroyed against better teams.

    They've stood in tackles a lot today and hung on to the ball for ages.

    Hope we pay attention to really pinning the arms this week.

    Higgins hammy. 
    Hoping 29 and 26 for Cats do theirs.

    Add ruining football again to the list of reasons to hate Geelong. As boring as sport gets.

    No excuses whatsoever next Sunday 

    We play hard and fast Footy for 4 Quarters, we win

    Come on Cats bring this one home so I can apply the strange logic that a win here will make you less motivated next week.

     Getting Geelong off a 6 day break with no Dangerfield Higgins and Rohan...and playing boring [censored] football

    If I were a Hawthorn supporter I don't think I could deal with playing CJ and Frost in the same backline. Both are the same - they take off helter skelter but make ridiculous harebrained decisions. Like that 50. He's faster than his teammates, which is useless to the teammates.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
