Seems the Dogs can’t win when they don’t win the free kick count 😆

Love seeing the Dogs lose!

Both the De Koning boys have got great hands. Them and the King brothers are the next wave of talls who control the air.

If I had to pay Kayo an extra $100 a month for a feature that turned off commentary & just gave the crowd noise, I'm paying it. In fact, in this day & age why doesn't this feature exist? Or does it?

Not sure what Bailey Smith was thinking with that headbutt. There was at least 5 other Geelong players he should have gone for first.

Why don't they put time back on the clock when they call back a bounce? Another fundamental flaw of the game.

Because that just makes too much sense

Yeah, I just watched a replay and I think you're right. Just a forearm into the back and pushed May off balance and into a high speed collision.

Cats seem to be experts at it 

…. and getting away with it.

Dogs backline is poor as is their forward line. Midfield is good. Geelong don't have a midfield and one player on their backline and forward line. Stewart and Cameron. Neither of these sides are a threat.

100% unsighted this qtr :)

Probably ended up costing them the game with that brain fade.

...and on a similar note, the dogs have a couple of players with short arms. Did not commit to contact in marking contests in the 3rd Q.

...and another other note, Weightman. I don't know, the dives, the acting in general play, nearly ending the year of that kid at Geelong by taking his legs out. He needs a good kick up the backside by his coach for a start. At least the umpires have woken up to him. At the moment he's a liability in big games. Koz was the right pick that's for sure.

...and another, other, other note. What was Treloar thinking? If Smith didn't cost them the game, Treloar certainly did.

I'd love to see Ben Brown step up and do a Jeremey Cameron performance and kick a bag of goals. 

 

Let’s call a spade a spade- BBB is having a poor season.

Nowhere near the Coleman contenders for someone that’s a professional goal kicker.

Is it fair to say the Dogs are officially out of the premiership race?

Need to go 9-1 to sneak into the top 4.

I'd say so. Might go on a run and finish 6th or 7th, possibly win a final then go out. That's how it's tracking.

Absolute full credit to Geelong tonight.

Lost their best defender and arguably best player in Stewart which could’ve had the potential to destabilise their structure and had 5 of their best 22 out.

Not to mention they had their big lead pegged back but had the character to hold on and never give up.

Dogs in real trouble to make finals - may need 13 wins this year given how terrible West Coast, North and Essendon are. That means 7-3 from now on with a tough draw

Are they still mentally crushed by what the Mighty Dees did to them in the GF 2021?  They look very fragile.

Was going to say the same, NQR since. Would love Naughton in our team though, he is what i thought Weid was going to be.

Exactly KW.

13 needed this year and its the old question.  Who goes out for the Dogs .?  For mine there are at least 8 teams above them.  Bailey Smith did another 1 way running perforamnce a la GF final 1/4,  and Naughton seems overated and young de Koning was excellent.

Had money on the Cats to win (punt with head) but was still cheering the dogs

I really do hate the Cats

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
