yeah I agree. but if he can't differentiate between a sling/smash tackle and just holding on then I reckon he needs to learn/grow at VFL level. and when in doubt Preussy, err on the side of a dangerous tackle, we need some grunt!

I can forgive the dropped mark I guess but it is hard to look past that 'tackle' on McGovern. I really think if he have of smashed him in that tackle it would have inspired the team. he is in the team to be aggressive and he missed a massive opportunity there. Pruess is absolutely needed as back up ruck. If Gawn goes down and we had no Pruess we are screwed.

Smith and Baker IN Pruess and Lockhart OUT

I don't get it.... but I have been told I'm a bit slow at times

Dees leading free kicks 14-7 since during 1st Q. Funny how you win frees when you crack in and play well

Great to see Bailey playing fwd at long last. He is a class above our other fwds

Petty should not wear the jumper again unforgivable

We have to be the biggest bunch of dumb [censored] ever. Give away free kicks constantly and can’t kick from 30m [censored] off mfc

Can’t think of the 5-6 they’ve missed tbh

How can anyone argue with the umpiring? You have to earn free kicks. A couple of questionable ones but most free kicks have been there

Jesus Christ Pruess, you have a chance to smash McGovern and you let him go. Your goal

BT, shut the [censored] up.

Am expecting an 80 pt drubbing so hopefully we at least crack in and provide some interest for us die hards

Looks like 17th spot will be ours by 4:30. Wtf can you say??

Gotta feel for the kid. Can’t get a run at it

To be downhill skiers you need to beat poor teams so I don’t think we make the grade we are just shizen

WC will be fired up after last and should beat us by 60 pts plus. Our back six is good but they have 4 excellent speedy small fwds that will carve us up. At the other end their defenders must be laughing at our talls and lack of smalls. Id try May fwd for the game to see if he could be a genuine swing man.

Can we reduce administrators influence on the rules of our game? there should be a list of core values/ rules that cannot change. Gil and Hocking can manage aflX and leave us the [censored] alone!!

Weed would be copping it on here if he put a one mark game like Pruess did under the roof. Maybe we are seeing why Pruess hasn’t been selected earlier. A work in progress.

Lewis and Clarry dominating the clearances with 6 each. Petracca looks angry and playing very well dogs fans are a disgrace lever reading the play well at the back

How TF was that htb against Jetta??

Who would have thought Hunt would lead our goal kicking for the year

Dogs are in decent form but are nothing to be scared of. They lost to Carlton and the suns this year and have 7 wins to our 5. Our defence and midfield could get on top if we are switched on. Close tagging of the Bont is crucial including a plan when he goes fwd. It will be low scoring. frustrating game to watch unless we lower our eyes and hit up the mid sized fwds. bugger it, I reckon we will win.

I agree regarding Ablett. He could have gone down as the greatest player ever and won 2 more flags at the Cats potentially. He started amazingly but those last 2-3 years at GC he was as soft as butter, kept his body right for the return to Geelong and still retained the captaincy. He would surely regret leaving the cats. at his peak he would have been on close to a mil/per year at cats after their stars retired. not enough Gaz? Tarnished his reputation for sure GC have almost no chance of ever being a decent side.

Far out Cameron, the 18yo brother of Charlie was picked at 39 as part of the WC academy. how the hell did he not go first round, did no one bid on him? seems like a top 5 talent to me. We are so far behind WC's fwd line it is not funny. I agree Pennent, we need to work on a NT academy.
