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've seen glaciers move quicker than Geelong.

    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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
