Can’t see us coming back from this. 
Disappointing display. We look flat, we can’t win the footy at ground level or in packs or in the air. They’re all over us. 

 

Making a pretty slow and predictable team look very good. We are very flakey against top 4 sides and it's a major concern. Game over. 

Dam about to break through....


Cats +13 in clearances. We’ve been beaten at the source tonight and then they’ve setup better structurally too.

Even if we get up from here, there’s a lot to learn from tonight. Need to improve come finals time.

    Gee we never go near the corridor. Slow boring play 

     

    Well we always have learnings ! WTFTM


    Too many non-contributors, they are cutting us up big time, we have no time or space with the ball.

    Lot of learnings from this game


    They are all over us

    Throw, We have so many players down. Not shattered if we lose this at that dump of a narrow ground

    We knew it was narrow and even the commentators knew at the start that Geelong would switch it and use the corridor.

    I'm grinding my teeth every time we leave them loose on the far side and then we just kick down the line. 

    It's so stupid and predictable and yet we have not adjusted.

    The cats are not playing that well, they're just using the ground so much better.

    I do think Salem looks slow

    We’re playing with heavy legs and the fumbles. Very few spills have gone our way. The width of the ground is affecting us. We can’t use the breakaway width, the boundary keeps spoiling it. Feels like one of those nights the bounce of the ball has had a huge impact.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
