Pathetic set shot by Selwood. The Swans midfield is just so good. They've got hard ball winners and good runners too. Kennedy and Parker are just perfectly rounded midfielders.

Jeez Heeney is a gun. If only we'd landed him!

Thought this would be a tight low scoring game, but the Swans are absolutely destroying Geelong. They've already given themselves a big enough lead to win in under 10 minutes!

If you go by previous media reports he was lined up for 800k a year and the length was the sticking point. You'd think he was on close to that, Brisbane don't have many other decent players and need to pay a minimum salary cap, similar to us a few years ago when many players were earning more than they should have. Either way he's a decent footballer. It I'd steer clear. There should be better targets out there for us.

He does have attitude problems for sure but it may be to do with his salary. I imagine he is one of, if not their highest paid player. I imagine clubs don't wanna take his contract, likely 700-800k onto their books. He's a good accumulator, but he doesn't have high hurt factor. If he didn't have such a high salary I imagine a lot of clubs would be jumping all over him.

Will go to the Lions for a pick in the 50s or so. He's turning 30 next year and barely cracked a game this year. Lions desperately need kpp so will bring him in and give him games. He has been a good servant of the club so they will move him on cleanly with minimal fuss and not screw him around like previous elder players.

Yep. Nearly landed him but just couldn't get the deal done. His value has gone up since then after having a really good season this year. Will cost a decent pick you'd think, 2nd round? Cash not as big an issue.

Said the succession plan has been smooth process unlike a team across the road (dig at Malthouse to Buckley transition).

He sounded good in his media work today. Very calm and talking about stability and hard work. Hopefully he continues to take us up the ladder.

Surprised by the negativity here. If we pick up Hibberd as well, we are getting two experienced quality players in a good age bracket where we are lacking. Both are comfortably in our best 22. Melksham has decent pace, aggression and a decent kick too. Some of his kicks inside 50 or long running goals will be valuable to us. Hibberd brings a quality lock down defender who provides great rebound. He'd immediately become our best half back flanker, though Salem and Hunt both have the potential to surpass him. We should be excited we have 1, perhaps 2, quality experienced players coming in who can fill multiple roles and add a bit more aggression, pace and kicking skill to the side. Melksham can play half forward, midfield and half back, so he adds lends flexibility. Our currently gameplay with the half backs rushing forward to provide drive suits him perfectly. I wouldn't be surprised if Goodwin created the tactic knowing he'd have players like Melksham at his disposal. He won't be just depth, he will be a lock in the 22 for the foreseeable future. It's another good get by Jason Taylor. Let's hope Hibberd joins us too!

Get around him. Onward and upward in 2017 Dees! Give me some finals action baby!

How is Rance in any way courageous? Is he not the dog who punched a prone Jack Watts in the back of the head? He is one of the most cowardly players in the league!

Yes! Cats win! Thank god! Hopefully that's the end of the Hawks. Great to see them finally lose a close one.

It's [censored] isn't it. Mitchell is the king of 10-15 pointless chip kicks. Meanwhile Bartel slides through 3 blokes and handballs perfectly while on his back. He's a tough champion footballer Bartel.

Cmon Geelong. Time to clip the wings off these whinging Hawks. Just get it done!

Hopefully sniper Mitchell gets cleaned up in the second half. Such a whinging piece of [censored] that bloke. And he never, NEVER stands up in the big finals games. He's got the worst finals record I can remember from any "superstar" footballer in my lifetime.

God Hawthorn are annoying to watch. They play such uncontested footy. When it's tough in packs they can't handle it. It's a pity teams can't keep the intensity up for a whole game against them like we did or they'd come unstuck. Hate watching their players whinge for frees even though they get a dream run with the umps. Hope Geelong can reset at half time and tighten up their defense to stop those over the top [censored] goals. Cmon Geelong!

Must be Jetta in 10th

He had a poor pre-season and struggled for fitness all season. His past 3-4 years before that were very good. He would give us more depth and class to our midfield, and is also flexible to rotate through half back if needed. We need better kicks and he fits the bill. He can kick it 60 metres accurately! His leg is a cannon! We also need more players in his age bracket with experience to balance out the youngsters we have. If the price isn't too high, and it shouldn't be due to his injuries this year, he is an ideal target. 2nd round pick and sweetener, or 2017 first round pick for him and maybe a sweetener to us. He's a good target for us. Go get him Dees!

I'm so sorry Paul. This club doesn't deserve you and the hard work you've put in. You must breathe a sigh of relief not having to deal with the losers loitering round the place anymore. Enjoy retirement!

Did we? Roos said in his pressed yesterday his worst loss as coach was his second at the club at 91 points. He must have a selective memory! Maybe the record is safe Still a f*cking pathetic effort today and the players should be ashamed and stripped of their match day pay. How can we still have these kinds of losses after 10 years of rebuilds!?!

91 points in his second match as our coach. This is likely going to top that. It's shameful it's even anywhere near that to be honest after all this time.

It does qualify him for VFL finals and I suspect it's the reason why he is playing VFL this weekend.

We're handing Roos his worst loss ever as a coach as a parting gift. I'm ashamed to be part of this club today. Truly embarrassing.
