Straight Sets Simon

Jones is a star. Harmes lifted, he bloody well needed to.

Amazing grab by Fritsch.

This quarter is huge, we either put the foot to the throat and snuff out any chance or we do what we normally do and let Brisbane back in and make it a contest in the fourth quarter.

Jones no, Harmes yes. Harmes, Bugg and Wagner bottom three easily. That chase by Hogan one of the best things he’s done at AFL level, superb.

Hogan wouldn’t have chased last week, great effort.

You’re allowed to throw the opposition ruck?

And Fritsch.

Vince needs to play as a tagger every week.

Calm down, Saty.

Bugg’s lazy fumbles are a liability.

Who the hell keeps holding that ducking bloke?

What a kick by Pedersen.

Fumble of a simple chest mark by Melksham leads to a Brisbane goal.

Good start, we need to be at least eight goals up at half time now.

So many fumbles.

The question is, in which quartervwill we totally drop our bundle?

I feel for him with his diabetes, cannot be easy at all. Having said that, when we said we would have taken him if St Kilda took Petracca I died a little.

Ben Brown will destroy us next week as per usual.

Maybe our preseason form wasn’t all that good. This game is embarrassingly bad.

Our kicking skills won’t be any better this week.

This week the two teams are playing for the Johnstone-Macdonald Shield.

I disagree, it was the way we played which is the issue and not necessarily the outcome.

If Geelong don't get in juries during the game they run out eight goal winners.

Melbourne in crisis for not going on camp. Adelaide in crisis for going on camp.

There is something to this. As I’ve been going on about we just aren’t a clean team. That is we fumble, run over the ball and get stuck in contested situations. Most of our goals come feel like they come from sheer grunt and not necessarily great skill or system. This style of play is taxing and could explain the big lapses during games.
