Since security was clearly going to be inadequate some Swans players should have got boundary side of him before he kicked it. Given the lead it wouldn’t matter if somehow that led to a Geelong goal after a mis kick or kickin.

    He handled it so much better than I would. 
    I would have had a full on panic attack. Would have also been good if someone could hand him a mask. All I kept thinking is COVID!

    You only get covid in WA atm because you know .... Science.

    Buddy handled that with class. Had a hundred drunk blokes hands in his face. I think he has struggled with anxiety in the past? I don’t know how he coped with that without losing it

    Dunkley at end sums up Dogs for me. Flops with contact on mark trying to milk a fifty rather than moving ball into open forward line. Fortunately the acting failed he had to kick and choked again 

    This is the Dog's Achilles Heel.

    They have been trained to think that any cheating effort will result in a soft free. 

    I'm very thankful that the cheating, ducking, throwing era has only resulted in a single flag. It doesn't look like changing any time soon.

    It’s not like this was unexpected. How ill-prepared these clowns were.

    It’s all so Sydney. Everyone feeling a million bucks running around under lights after a few too many drinks. But then it’s 3 hours on public transport to get home to the house you’ll be paying off until your 147.

    10,000 idiots all trying to get to the one point as quickly as possible. This is how crowd crushes happen, which can see people asphyxiate on their feet. Nuts.

    This waiting around would be agony for the Cats. I should record this and watch again

    So much for Geelong's new 'territory' game plan. 

    Geelong aren't coping with pressure.  

    They look stuck between their old game 'control' game plan and their new one.

     

    Their stars have old legs...they will beat up lesser teams but struggle against good teams.

    Selwood is still good when around the ball and he uses it really well, the trouble is he can't get to enough contests when the ball is moving around quickly. Gone on a year too long...

    ....and he's not on his own.

    Doesn't feel as long as the 30 seconds max took to kick that goal in round 23 last year.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
