Match thread live

[ROK Lobster]

Davis does team thing, Bolton display a wrist limper than Barry's right!

[TheGrimReaper]

Davis miss a shot on goal.

[Mel_C]

Bartel was left on his own and kicked a goal.

[TheGrimReaper]

And Goodes misses a shot on goal now. :rolleyes:

[gossipcom]

That Johnson goal was a great goal. Bad miss by Goodes led to it.

[floppinab]

Johnson off the ground.

Swans wasteful in front of goal, 3 shots should have all been goals. Been inside 50 2 or 3 more times than the Cats

[TheGrimReaper]

Surely we can't be this bad without Barry Hall?

[gossipcom]

This is absolutely ridiculous. Only way to put it.

[floppinab]

Winning the stoppage ball very well, Jack v good early. Just wasteful inside our F50.

Stokes kicks another for the Cats, very efficient in front of goal

[TheGrimReaper]

I hope I am wrong, but this looks like going to be a belting.

[Mel_C]

From listening to the radio this doesn't sound too good. :(

[floppinab]

O'Keefe has it from 45.

Hits the post!!!! He does not look confident with shooting for goal

[TheGrimReaper]

O'Keefe hits the post. Are we going to score a goal?

[Zlatorog]

It all depends how many goal will Geelong kick in the first quarter. I believe we conceded defeat even before the game started.

[gossipcom]

Hawkins is absolutely killing Barry.

3 Geelong players by themselves in the forward line... absolutely ridiculous.

Also ridiculous is that Boundary Umpire.

[TheGrimReaper]

This is @@@@ing pathetic. Way to give up before the game!

[floppinab]

Wojcinski now, our midfielders very poor picking up inside our Def. 50

[TheGrimReaper]

This is crap! We're going to go goalless. :rolleyes:

[Damien]

Eww to the start of the game...oh well, still plenty of time haha

Thank you C10 for putting together your worst possible commentary team for today's game!

[floppinab]

Some magic from Micky finds Jude 15m out directly in front.

Gets it, at last........

[gossipcom]

About bloody time we got a goal.

Good work by Magic to set up that goal. Lucky for Bevan that the two Cats players fell over each other or that was going to go the other way (and no bashing here on Bevo, just finally got some luck our way).

[TheGrimReaper]

Adam Goodes needs to lift, being carved up by Ling.

[floppinab]

The Stats will show Swans going very well but.

Bevan does brilliantly, legged no free:rolleyes:

[floppinab]

Mattner HTB after getting away a legit handball, WTF was that :mad:

Leads to a cats goal :mad: :mad: :mad:

[TheGrimReaper]

The Stats will show Swans going very well but.

Bevan does brilliantly, legged no free:rolleyes:

Why should we get a free, we're not allowed one at Geelong it seems! :rolleyes:

[gossipcom]

Marty's head chopped off and he gets pinned for holding the ball, which leads to a Cats goal and another behind.

[hammo]

The goals are coming too easily for the Cats. It will be hard to get back into this game.

[TheGrimReaper]

*sighs* The fat lady has already sung I'm guessing!

[CJK]

whats wrong with jolly?

[floppinab]

Coughing the ball up a lot now at CHF

[gossipcom]

whats wrong with jolly?
He has no idea how to play then he takes a screamer. :)

The words manning up is non-existent right now.

[TheGrimReaper]

How long before quarter time, I'm listening to this crap on the radio!

[floppinab]

whats wrong with jolly?

Absolutely nothing, takes a genuine hanger at FB

Goodes has 1 possesion :frown

[TheGrimReaper]

This is too @@@@ing easy. :rolleyes:

[floppinab]

Davis pushed in the back 10m out, no free.

Cats rebound, easy goal to Johnson

[gossipcom]

Johnson has 3 goals..

Our defensive backline is a shambles.. or midfield can't get any momentum into the forward and our forward line is non-existent.

That pretty much sums up.

[TheGrimReaper]

How long before quarter time? Nobody has answered the question!

[CJK]

LOL @ my jolly timing.

[gossipcom]

It's quarter time now.

38-8.

What was the score at QT last year?

[TheGrimReaper]

Thank you people for answering. :rolleyes:

[Mel_C]

Our confidence is going to be shot after this.

[floppinab]

Quarter Time now GR.

We are smashing them in the clearances but everytime they go forward we are way to slow to keep up with their ball movement and they have enourmous time and space inside their F50.

[Zlatorog]

Don't know, don't care. They're pathetic.

[annew]

God this is awful - are we really this bad?? No Kenelly, no Malceski, no Hall and no Spider - yep we really are this bad. Indecision all over the place.

[hammo]

What a pathetic quarter. Cats have loose players everywhere. Our defence is a shambles.

[TheGrimReaper]

Our confidence is going to be shot after this.

It's already shot after the 1st goal! :rolleyes:

[ROK Lobster]

Um, they are a lot better than us. Stand up Adam Goodes!

[TheMase]

Johnson has 3 goals..

Our defensive backline is a shambles.. or midfield can't get any momentum into the forward and our forward line is non-existent.

That pretty much sums up.

Its not the backline. It is the midfield and forward pressure. The ball is streaming in far too fast. Not much our defenders can do about it.

Outside of the OOBOTF Nick Smith was pretty good.

Our possessions are just not damaging enough. We have missed easy opportunities, and we need to exert more pressure.

[liz]

They started well enough but seemed to get a bit rattled. Needed to take those early opportunities when they arose.

A lot of credit has to go to Geelong - they are playing very well. Just have to hope Roos can settle his troops down a bit during the break.

[satchmopugdog]

Clinical discetion...but we're only missing "by that much"

[gossipcom]

Its not the backline. It is the midfield and forward pressure. The ball is streaming in far too fast. Not much our defenders can do about it.
It's everyone though. What's happening is when we stuff up going into the forward line, our backline are making the mistake of pushing up and it results in 3 Cats players being in the forward line by themselves to share the spoils.


A lot of credit has to go to Geelong - they are playing very well. Just have to hope Roos can settle his troops down a bit during the break.
Agree - when Geelong are hot they are hot and today they certainly are.

[Zlatorog]

Clinical discetion...but we're only missing "by that much"

yes, by exactly 5 goals.

[Mike_B]

Quarter Time now GR.

We are smashing them in the clearances but everytime they go forward we are way to slow to keep up with their ball movement and they have enourmous time and space inside their F50.
Sums it up pretty well. The speed and efficiency of their ball use is killing us. Able to find men in space in the forward line by running hard while we are struggling to move the ball forward past halfway.

[TheGrimReaper]

What's the bet, we won't win a quarter? I hope I am wrong.

[gossipcom]

Leo's good run there almost let him down but it got to Jolly *phew*

Yay for Jols.

[floppinab]

Leo takes em on with a 100m run, nearly gets caught. Lands with Jolly outside 50 and he nails it with a good set shot.
Doesn't look fantastic but nonetheless effective.

[TheGrimReaper]

At least Jolly is having a go.

[CJK]

2 quick goals would be nice

[floppinab]

Again good effort in the middle, nice pass inside 50, good mark to Davis.

Nails it. Here we come :o

[gossipcom]

2 goals in a row.

Davis goals.

[TheGrimReaper]

Davo kicks one now.

[Mike_B]

2 quick goals would be nice
Was that before or after Jolly's goal - 2 quick ones to start the qtr for us.

[TheGrimReaper]

What the hell is wrong with Goodes? :eek:

[gossipcom]

2 bad misses for Goodes - he's playing in the ruck though.

That was bloody lucky. Spoke too soon.

[floppinab]

Goodes in the ruck :eek:

Roves his own tap and. ..............misses

[CJK]

Was that before or after Jolly's goal - 2 quick ones to start the qtr for us.

After.

CHEESE!!

[gossipcom]

Cheese!

Nice work from Magic and Goodes there.

[TheGrimReaper]

Cheese has scored one now. :)

[floppinab]

Magic,,,,, to Goodes falls over, to Barlow......GOAL

Goodes looking wobbly but at least in the frame now

[hammo]

Come on boys!! Great goal by Barlow. This is much better!

[Mel_C]

Barlow Goal!

(Rex Hunt mistook him for C Bolton)

[Mike_B]

Game evening up now as we're able to stop the flow of ball into their forward line. Great snap from Cheese.

[NMWBloods]

What's the bet, we won't win a quarter? I hope I am wrong.
Negative nelly! :rolleyes:

[TheGrimReaper]

Negative nelly! :rolleyes:

You trying to bait me?

[gossipcom]

Absolutely disgraceful defending on the goal line leads to another Cats goal.

2 posters to ROK now.

[CJK]

ROK loves the post

[TheGrimReaper]

3.11 for Ryan O'Keefe so far this year. :rolleyes:

[hammo]

2 posters from ROK. If he ever brings his kicking boots it will be a joy to watch.

[gossipcom]

Another to Cheese!

[TheGrimReaper]

CHEESE is a young star!

[CJK]

more cheese

another cracker (not Jack)

[floppinab]

Another to Cheese!

Some great running work from Bolton and Mattner through the wing led to that one.

[gossipcom]

Some great running work from Bolton and Mattner through the wing led to that one.
Yep awesome work there.

Also great kick to pass it to NOG., which leads to a behind.

[Mike_B]

Strong mark Noggy....now convert!

Grrrrr....poor effort.

[Zlatorog]

Goodes is very well held by Ling. I wonder how long it would take before Adam whacks him?

[CJK]

brennen hits a target by foot inside 50

nog screws it up

[TheGrimReaper]

0.4 for Luke Ablett this year at goalkicking.

[Mike_B]

Too slow Goodesy!

[gossipcom]

That Goodes behind was due to an awesome tackle and now the Cats will goal. Whoops Selwood kicks a behind. Heh.

[TheGrimReaper]

Goodes misses again, and the ball is in their forward line already. Our easy is this from Geelong?

[gossipcom]

Good work finally by ROK!

[Mike_B]

Smart (?) or was it lucky play from ROK?

Swans right back in it!!!

[TheGrimReaper]

ROK finally gets a goal. :D

[TheGrimReaper]

The crowd is getting frustrated.

[gossipcom]

Buchy should have passed it off to Magic dammit!

Shocking umpiring decision.

Who the heck is playing on Hawkins right now?

[TheGrimReaper]

Buchy should have passed it off to Magic dammit!

Shocking umpiring decision.

Who the heck is playing on Hawkins right now?

I think it's Leo Barry.

[Mike_B]

Can see why we have to make sure we don't turn the ball over - they killed us in the 1st qtr when we lost the ball, but we've been much better with it this qtr.

[tasswan]

How good is Wojinski

[gossipcom]

I think it's Leo Barry.
Yeah it seems he was playing on him on that occasion. He seems to be alternating between Hawkins and Johnson.

[FredFlintstone]

Our inaccurate kicking at goal will cost us this game!!!

[TheGrimReaper]

Don't let a late goal happen FFS!

[gossipcom]

That is ridiculous, shouldn't have been a mark. Craig Bolton got a piece of that mark.

[tasswan]

5.5 fr the quarter doesnt help, however much happier now than at qtr time

[TheGrimReaper]

Thank god Chapman misses. :D

[hammo]

We're lucky Geelong missed some easy goals in that 2nd quarter.

[satchmopugdog]

What's the bet, we won't win a quarter? I hope I am wrong.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suck eggs Grandma

[ROK Lobster]

Well that was better.

[gossipcom]

Well we're in a better position this year than the corresponding match last year. :)

[liz]

We're lucky Geelong missed some easy goals in that 2nd quarter.

We missed just as many in the 1st.

Our boys may not be good enough in the end to get over the line - who knows? - but got to give them huge credit for working their way back into the game.

[TheGrimReaper]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suck eggs Grandma

lol I'm glad I'm wrong mate. I hope we win another 2 quarters. ;)

[annew]

0.4 for Luke Ablett this year at goalkicking.
He is in the top 10 of players who are the worst at converting from a set shot.

[ROK Lobster]

Hard work got us back into that. Geelong's disposal suffered under the pressure. Was good to see. MOL needs to stand up, IMO.

[TheGrimReaper]

He is in the top 10 of players who are the worst at converting from a set shot.

Is that at the Swans or in the AFL?

[satchmopugdog]

Well that was better.

Is that equivalent to a golf clap!!! It was very good. Their egos have taken a slight @@@@@ now so there is doubt creeping in but they are still brillant. They are definitely quick. Son of Gary 1 is getting annoyed by Son of Gary 2. Smith hasn't looked out of place for a 1st gamer.

[swans_premiers]

Both sides missing a few easy shots...namely goodes n o'keefe for us. not much in it. Geelong starting to feel the pressure..just need to make the most of our opportunities n put it on the scoreboard.

[annew]

Is that at the Swans or in the AFL?

In the AFL - I read it somewhere during the week.

[satchmopugdog]

lol I'm glad I'm wrong mate. I hope we win another 2 quarters. ;)


Mate!!!!!!!! I'm a girl/old bag...sounds funny being called mate.

[Big Al]

When we beat Brisbane at their best, our conversion was brilliant. It will have to be as high in the 2nd half to get over the line in this. Great fightback though.

[TheGrimReaper]

Mate!!!!!!!! I'm a girl/old bag...sounds funny being called mate.

You're still a mate of mine. ;) :p Anybody that shares the same birthday is a mate of mine. :D

[stellation]

Not sure if it's been said earlier, but the Cats obsession of the commentators is a little annoying.

[hammo]

Our boys may not be good enough in the end to get over the line - who knows? - but got to give them huge credit for working their way back into the game.

Yep no doubt about that. We looked a totally different side in the second quarter. If Goodes keeps getting more of the ball we'll be in with a shot. Also the fact that MOL and Davo have been kept relatively quiet so far gives us further hope if they can get involved.

[AussieAnge]

Not sure if it's been said earlier, but the Cats obsession of the commentators is a little annoying.

Are you listening to MMM commentary Stella? They just about have organisms every time Hawkins gets the ball.

[TheGrimReaper]

Not sure if it's been said earlier, but the Cats obsession of the commentators is a little annoying.

Is that radio or TV?

[satchmopugdog]

Not as hilarious as last night with Essendon with them going on about how it was so good for the members of Essendon to come to the footy and watch such good footy as it was so fast. I bet they felt really good.

[AussieAnge]

Is that radio or TV?


I can tell you that MMM are very Cats' centric. Not listening to TV commentary so can't comment on that.

[TheGrimReaper]

I can tell you that MMM are very Cats' centric. Not listening to TV commentary so can't comment on that.

I'm listening to 3aw, a much more balanced station.

MMM is pretty much a radio version of Channel 9.

[tasswan]

I thought the biggest difference between the 1st and 2nd qtrs was our desperation

[CJK]

what a great interview! So insightful!

Edit - on Ch10, with Hawkins old man. It wasn't really.

[dread and might]

At work in the no daylught savings zone and sneakily looking at comp.......

Is it half time?

[annew]

Are you listening to MMM commentary Stella? They just about have organisms every time Hawkins gets the ball.
All the commentators are biased towards Geelong. Of course I want to win but as long as we don't get thrashed then they have done well considering who is out of the team. Go Barlow!!!!

[robamiee]

i just wish i was able to view it.
being in WA not coverage except on net through radio..
i even subscribed to Setanta Sports in US, only to find they blocked my IP address being based in Australia....

Damn broadcasters...

So it is hard to tell how the intensity was in the 2nd qtr compared to 1st qtr, that got us back into the game, but as some said need to convert all opportunities, a good 3rd qtr will put doubt in the cats, if we let them dictate like the 1st their confidence will push them further afield in the 4th

[stellation]

Just the television commentary. There were some very interesting things that they've obviously entered the game with in their mind.

They show the ladder, Sydney has a higher percentage than Geelong despite having the 1 loss... "Geelong play a very attacking style of footy. Sydney will be playing their tightchecking, contested brand of footy. A clash of two styles!"

Huge 1st quarter by Geelong "They've blown Sydney away in this quarter with their free running play"
Huge 2nd quarter by Sydney "Well it's a tight tussle, Sydney putting the clamps on"

2 Cats players push Swans in the back in a marking contest, ends up as a free kick to Ted "Well the free kicks were there"
Davis pushes a Cat in the back "Do you think his coach will be dissapointed he tried to take the easy way out there?"

[AussieAnge]

I'm listening to 3aw, a much more balanced station.

MMM is pretty much a radio version of Channel 9.

I don't think I can get 3AW up here. Isn't that the station Rex Hunt commentates on?

[hammo]

On 10 Walls and Lane continue to dribble their usual anti-Swans diatribe. It's more anti-Goodes than anything: Lane wants free kicks paid against him at every opportunity but not noticing Ling holding onto Goodes.

[annew]

Who is on Mooney?

[dread and might]

so i'm assuming it is half time.....don't have time to read thread, what is our forward setup?

[TheGrimReaper]

On 3AW, Nathan Buckley mentioned that we are out-played Geelong using their game-plan.

[TheGrimReaper]

I don't think I can get 3AW up here. Isn't that the station Rex Hunt commentates on?

Yes, I'm listening to it on the Internet. ;)

[stellation]

On 3AW, Nathan Buckley mentioned that we are out-played Geelong using their game-plan.
Seriously about a dozen games in and I think Buckley is close to the top commentator talking about the AFL.

Agreed mate!

[robamiee]

Seriously about a dozen games in and I think Buckley is close to the top commentator talking about the AFL.

yeah a very unbiased commentary..though haven't heard him call a pies game yet

[stellation]

1st quarter when Swans missed a few shots from the same pocket "there's no wind down that end"
2nd quarter Geelong can't score at the same end "well the wind has definitely picked up a bit"

[AussieAnge]

Yes, I'm listening to it on the Internet. ;)


Unfortunately the internet and TV are in different rooms so I don't have the luxury of listening on the net, have to put up with MMM. MMM Sydney commentary team a generally pretty good.

[robamiee]

how many do we need to be within at 3/4 to have a chance...
i reckon around 2 goals...

[TheGrimReaper]

lol Umpires are going our way, and the crowd is getting frustrated. :D I'm loving it.

[gossipcom]

Okay so Mattner is on Johnson and Barry is on Hawkins at the moment.

A goal coming up for Mooney. Luckily he missed.

[TheGrimReaper]

Can we get the first goal of the quarter for once?

[robamiee]

we need that 1st goal to put the dampers on them.
seems they the cats have the run from what i can gather on the radio...

[gossipcom]

I missed 5 minutes there, wtf are they booing Goodes for?

[Mel_C]

I missed 5 minutes there, wtf are they booing Goodes for?
Because Goodes is getting some frees.

[Robbo]

@@@@ing Paul Bevan.

[TheGrimReaper]

Because Goodes is getting some frees.

Don't dare get a free at Skilled Stadium. :rolleyes:

[gossipcom]

Because Goodes is getting some frees.
Thought so.

Our midfield is ugh right now. And our defensive line doesn't know what to do when they mark the ball.

[TheGrimReaper]

We need to make them pay now, they're wasting opportunities.

[gossipcom]

Now that was lucky. Ling hits the post. And Davis then stuffs up in the middle of the ground.

[TheGrimReaper]

Come on Swannies, 5 behinds this quarter to Geelong. Make them bloody pay!

[robamiee]

have we even looked like scoring yet?

[annew]

Same article said Ling is the number 1 most accurate.

[Big Al]

9 straight behinds to Geelong....

[Mel_C]

We have been caught HTB a few times today.

[TheGrimReaper]

We can't hurt them on the score board. :(

[TheGrimReaper]

Bevo has a shot on goal. :o uh-oh

[robamiee]

a goal right now would hurt the run the cats have had.


you beauty bevan....

[gossipcom]

Bevo! Great work by Davo, Bird and ROK there.

[stellation]

Great hustle by Stella then connolly calmly puts it through the big sticks.

[satchmopugdog]

A Davis tackle sets up a goal for Bevan!!!!!!!!!!!!!! eh Connelly

[Zlatorog]

Gold!!:D

[TheGrimReaper]

How long to 3 quarter time?

[Mel_C]

How long to 3 quarter time?

1 min to go. Geelong have got a free and kicked a goal.

[TheGrimReaper]

Soft free kick to Bartel, which could cost a goal. Bravo Umpire!


KILL THE CONTEST YOU WANKERS!

[gossipcom]

20 seconds. They just got a free kick off the ball and Bartel goals.

[robamiee]

damn..bloody umpires
..oh well least we have the breeze with us next qtr

[stellation]

Huge call on that free kick and it barely got a mention on Ch10. No replay of the incident. Any idea what happened?

That bloody hurts....

I'm not surprised that it got no mention on Channel 10.

Biased much?

Are they really barracking for Geelong? :o

[gossipcom]

8.13. 61 to 7.9. 51 at 3 Quarter Time.

[robamiee]

guys on 3aw dont even know what it was for watching the replay....

[stellation]

I assume it was on Mattner? If so that is dissapointing, he is a smart defender. I'd forgive almost any other defender bar Craig Bolton that mistake but Mattner is too smart and experienced to do that.

Assuming it was actually there, of course ;)

[cruiser]

Winnable! We must maintain the pressure, maintain possession and convert every goal scoring opportunity we get.

I feel sick.

[Mike_B]

Still well and truly in the game - fighting hard and got a bit of luck with missed opportunities by the Cats. Need to be a bit quicker to get rid of the ball though - the intensity is high, so no time to take that extra step.

Great to see some of the lesser lights standing up to be counted. If only Roosy was willing to get them more opportunities earlier, but better late than never!

[Zlatorog]

Winnable! We must maintain the pressure, maintain possession and convert every goal scoring opportunity we get.

I know how you feel. It's going to be one of those games again that might go down to the wire.

[annew]

Winnable but I feel sick too and the crowd is feral and I think will end up influencing the decisions.

[satchmopugdog]

Winnable! We must maintain the pressure, maintain possession and convert every goal scoring opportunity we get.

I feel sick.

Exactly....We can do it maybe...but has the effort been too much. Poor old Mattner is out on his feet. He has worked his butt off.

[liz]

Opening contest of the quarter, Cats player gets pinged for HTB after clearly having prior opportunity and taking on a couple of tacklers.

Commentary team: Why should the guy with the ball get penalised in that situation?

:rolleyes:

I like that Geelong supporters are bitching about the umpires! :rolleyes:

Why are channel 10 biased against us? I thought channel 9 was biased.

[desredandwhite]

They will bitch about anything down there :)

I'm married to one of the 1% of them who is rational, apparently.

Maybe this last quarter will help to bring on the baby, who is being quite stubborn at the minuet.....

[robamiee]

1st goal needed, the cats would ahve doubts and the swans would be we can beat themm.
need a lot more inside 50's though...and where is MOL haven't heard his named called once

[satchmopugdog]

Just tried to put my doona cover on and I'm so agitated I have got it all tangled...gave up.

Have some vodka, it will calm you down. :p

[TheGrimReaper]

Can someone give Goodes goalkicking lessons? :eek:

[gossipcom]

Goodes cannot buy a goal today. Another behind to him.

Free kick to Moore near the goal. Hunter just slammed him off the ball.

Within 3 points now.

[stellation]

I make that 4 shots on goals on the run that Adam could have got, 3 of them that I think were undisciplined and selfish.*

*Oh before you start I LOVE Goodes.

[robamiee]

you beauty...needed that one...here we come

[Mike_B]

What are the commentators on. You can't push a guy in the back to shepherd! Within 5m or not!

[TheGrimReaper]

I'm glad I'm not watching channel 10.

[gossipcom]

*Oh before you start I LOVE Goodes.

LMAO I love that Wallsy is trying to justifying his comments.

So whatabout the overreaction, finally got a good call our way.

And that Jack call was a joke. GA Jr. goals back to 9 points.

[stellation]

So little commentary at all on the free kick to Bartell, but apparently the free kick to Moore is "just a bad decision" "an over reaction by the umpire" and they show a replay.

Then an iffy call holding the man goes to Ablett in front and they say "well he was over the ball, normally that would be in possession" and leave it at that.

[TheGrimReaper]

Channel 10 sounds like a disgrace at the moment. :eek:

[cruiser]

Dreadful decision to give Ablett a free kick, resulting in a Geelong goal. Bastard ump!!

[stellation]

LMAO I love that Wallsy is trying to justifying his comments.
He should get a run in the ruck ;)

[gossipcom]

And Goodes was tripped there, but that of course was missed.

10 point margin.

Free to Cats, McVeigh kicks it OOB.

Another goal to GA Jr.

Pretty much we're stuffing up and they're stepping up. We have to be careful they don't run away with this like the first quarter.

[TheGrimReaper]

Geelong sounds like they've got the momentum.

[dread and might]

score?

[robamiee]

damn....
c'mon boys
74 to 58

need the next one....

[Big Al]

Need to get in front and maybe the Cats might panic a bit

[gossipcom]

80-58 to Geelong.

We're being fried.

3 in a row to the Cats.

[TheGrimReaper]

Well, that was fun for awhile.

Channel 10 would be happy about this.

[cruiser]

Damn. :(

[robamiee]

Has Ling been penalised once for holding on Goodes? It's a bloody disgrace.

Yes he has...(well I think it was Ling that did it). That's when the crowd was booing him.

Moore a great mark.....but misses.

[tasswan]

[sfan]

the fat lady is starting to sing!!!

[573v30]

4 goal lead to the Cats, call that a flogging.

[TheGrimReaper]

Don't give up Swans, we don't deserve to lose by 5 goals.

[NMWBloods]

Game's over. Brave effort by our guys. Butchered the ball too much - need to improve disposal, particularly getting the ball effectively and quickly into the forward line.

Great game by Richards - was probably our best.

Geelong just clearly too good.

[robamiee]

score certainly doesn't reflect the game...

[573v30]

Now it's an embarrassment.

[TheGrimReaper]

Channel 10 would be happy no doubt.

[robamiee]

6 goals now...

thats dissappointing now....

[TheGrimReaper]

Just give up. Now the arrogant @@@@ers would say, they've flogged us! :rolleyes:

[gossipcom]

We'll lose by at least 40 here the way we're going and the thing is that doesn't justify the type of match it was.

[Mel_C]

We'll lose by at least 40 here the way we're going and the thing is that doesn't justify the type of match it was.

That's what 3AW just said.

[sfan]

Just give up. Now the arrogant @@@@ers would say, they've flogged us! :rolleyes:

we are lucky to be that close. A lot more scoring shots.

[TheGrimReaper]

This is bull@@@@! :rolleyes:

[hammo]

The Geelong love-in in the 10 commentary box is sickening.
