Return to Glory

Defining match. When the Aints got to within 4 points we were either going to fold (effectively going backwards) or make a stand. Great stuff Dees. Here we go.

Great win by the boys. Was never going to be a cakewalk and they stood up. Important win for both this year and the future.

And Andrew Mackie [censored] me to tears. Don't know why.

That extra man. 18 to 6 frees in Geelong's favour with Menzel taking an absolute dive to then goal. Tiges may be pretenders but it's woeful down Deliverance way.

Mark Neeld is available if they really want to bottom out.

Turn it 180 degrees.

I'm up for all three. Practised in the third.

You're kidding right?

Wiseblood, absolutely spot on re the functioning of the forward line. I really do think it stems from too much time spent trying to get that perfect kick away from the centre clearance and by the time it's been ferreted out, the forwards are having to double back. Or, as we saw today, it gets chopped off in the centre and the other side gets a quick transition in. I guess what I'm saying is that I need to be the coach of the Melbourne Football Club, effective immediately.

Tough on Gawn.

Hindsight's a beautiful thing but I never thought we'd go close to winning today. Like it or not (and I don't), we just played the Premiership favourite or near to, prior to finals and got a touch up. Probably expected. They made the prelim last year and know about the pointy end of the season. For that reason alone I don't see the season as lost. We will bounce back and blokes like Jones, who had a stinker, will be much better for the run. Miles away from a Premiership, but we can still make an almighty charge.

It's Dick Emery- like ET.

That last holding the ball call sums up the advantage at Kardinia Park - woeful.

Is there anything sweeter than seeing Geelong unravel in front of their 'Deliverance' inspired supporters? (rhetorical)

Geelong = one man band.

And ducks.

How's Dion Johnstone traveling KC? Just saw the one tweet saying he was clean by hand.

Disappointing

Tough on Hibberd

We must be down by 80 points judging by the number of posters attaching hoses to their exhaust pipes.

Let's just beat Norf before we get the calculator out. 50/50 game imo.

I remember that too. He's a very smart footballer and, in our wildest dreams, we have a budding Sam Mitchell on our hands.

This is clearly not right.The Giants need more concessions come draft time. Rather than a region, can we not just give them Victoria?

The Suns must be the most underwhelming club in the league. Still, they knock off the Dogs and that's about curtains for them.

You're better than me. I see 17 points up and picture a 1 point loss. Damaged.
