Hawkins has a history of “carelessly concussing and otherwise injuring opponents faces and heads. 
Of course “accidental” and the head isn’t really all that sacrosanct all the time. 

any news on Mays' injury??

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

A 5 goal quarter to a [censored] Geelong team on these conditions?

[censored] hell Melbourne wake up

[Bitter but optimistic 22,120]

Now we stand up and show we are fair dinkum

No excuses ! we must win on our merits

[Deesprate 1,324]

Is this the same old Melbourne or have we improved. Cats are severely undermanned. It ours to win no excuses really.

[DSP 1,488]

Christ Maxy gets the rough end of it.

 

[dee-tox 4,835]

Umpires are atrocious. One rule for Geelong one for Melb.

Do the umpires have ANY control over this game.

 

Absolutely, controlling it perfectly for the Cata comeback

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

If we throw away this game we are the same old Melbourne and all supporters might as well switch off for the rest of the season and all future seasons

Gone to hospital. Whole check/eye looks fractured. Not good.

[leave it to deever 17,498]

How does geelong with less possessions have 30 precent more frees than the other side?

6 frees more in that qrt made a huge difference.

Always happens against this yeam. Is it the crowd?

 

[Pickett2Jackson 3,904]

18 scoring shots to 11.. Geelong can kick straight in the wet but we cant?  The weather is no excuse

[praha 11,217]

This will be won and lost in coaches box.

[The heart beats true 17,904]

About to find out if we have another gear.

[Gorgoroth 12,750]

Goody needs to point out it’s raining and over handballing when not required is silly. We can and should win this. But as always we make it as hard as possible. Cmon dees!!!

[layzie 33,285]

Come on let's change the narrative a bit. It's going to be a workhorse effort 

[McQueen 17,864]

Let’s see some of that maturity and resilience they keep harping on about.

Fritsch has made 3 mistakes that all cost us goals. Get those right and we’d be at least 3 in front.

It’s hard to know how difficult it is to mark the ball, but we just dropped 3-4 marks that would have put us in a much better 

[Canplay 634]

Umpiring a disgrace.

But we lost our defence structure late in that quarter. For the last smith goal, when we lost the ball we had 3 mids all forward of the contest cheating.   Hopefully Goody resets them at 3 qtr time.

[dee-tox 4,835]

We're playing alright. Need a bit luck.

[Demon Dynasty 17,108]

Some awful decision making / execution that quarter.  The kick from outside 50 on the boundary from Chunk.  Tmac's decision to play on.  Jordan's decision to handball instead of taking the tackle at HF.

Sprargo's inability to finish at goal earlier.  The kick from Ed on the flank was woeful

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,764]

We are leading by 1.6  ?

[leave it to deever 17,498]

Cant someone let an elbow go crazy on selwood?

Kozzie and Jackson by themselves up fwd.

Loved the holding the ball against Oliver in that quarter. It followed about 6 tackles on Geelong players in the same passage of play which were all called a ball up.
