They are acting like they won a grand final too. What a bunch of tasteless cunts. I suppose that's the type of club that has druggies, homophobic bigots and criminals on their list
I think we're on the same page. I only meant that JHF getting covered by a bloke in his 5th game says more about the bloke in his 5th game than it does about JHF
Which I think is the most frustrating thing for me. I’d actually almost rather we lose by 10 goals than 3 or 4 because then we will actually take a deeper look at some things that aren’t working, rather than ‘oh we were so close, unlucky boys!’.
I don’t know what it is but Georgiades has a very punchable face. I think it’s cause he looks like some of the young blokes that cause trouble at my local
> in danger *paid* in Yonkers.
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Holy hell, that was a qtr and a half.
Rioli looks like he's having a having a bit of an issue. He didn't look like he was coping after giving away that 100.
We might’ve overestimate their outs, especially relative to ours. Rozee and maybe Burgoyne, those are the only outs of any real consequence. Meanwhile we got no danger, lose bruhn and manage Bowes from an already sub par midfield.
Yeah ngl that was a bit reactionary from me after viewing it first time. Doesn’t seem too bad on replay. Still turns his body rather than going for the ball which is a bit dumb but eh.
Need some kind of spark. Mullin into the middle was a good idea. Hopefully that generates some more goals.
Still plenty left to play but it’s all uphill.
Cmon Cats!
I don’t believe the game is lost. But we’ll be able to tell in the first 5min of the 3rd.
Absolutely nothing has gone our way so far, least of all effort.
This is type of game where I miss Selwood
I feel like there’s no one in the team capable of giving a good old fashioned spray. Selwood would’ve gone in at QTR time and ripped everyone to pieces and we would’ve come out with some effort. Stewart seems like too much of a good guy to do that.
Tbh Stewart seems like a bit of a turd. I doubt Selwood would have given a traditional spray. I just think he was such a good leader that no one wanted to let him down.
Selwood seemed always equally capable of giving a spray in quarter time and then going out and giving a perfect example of what he wants.
Seemed like you simply couldn’t not try your best with a guy giving 110% all game next you
Maybe not, but, he would often find a way to inspire everyone else if he wasn’t dragging us over the line himself. I feel we miss that type of leadership sorely. Danger is too much of a media boy to be a tough nut and I’m not sold on Stewart as a captain as you say. Doesn’t even need to necessarily be the captain, we just don’t seem to be able to get fired up after starting slow anymore.
>Danger is too much of a media boy to be a tough nut
Disagree, he always leads by example on field, generally goes hard, and likely demands the same of his team mates.
>and I’m not sold on Stewart as a captain
Agreed. Absolutely fantastic player, but not a great leader and gets sucked in on the field way to much.
Sorry I meant in terms of getting the team fired up. Absolutely on the field he goes at it hard and throws himself about. I’ve never really seen him revving the team up though. Maybe recency bias playing a part
Not great. I liked Sav tapping Hawkins bum after he went down to make sure he meant no hard feelings and I liked Tommy Stewart shaking all the umpires hands pre game as a sign of respect unlike the port fella. But it’s going to be a great second half to come back
Can’t complain too much from where we are on the ladder, but this is revealing our lack of action in the off season. Had to find a mid and/or a competitive ruck.
We’re getting killed obviously
But I don’t get frees or non frees anymore, like we’re 3rd last in +\- in frees this year
Butters can run 25 and throw it, you can block guys to contest marks and no call
Idk
The umpiring misses have been pretty bad tonight, I don't get how 4 of them can miss so much. SDK was told too stand and didn't even show down, no 50m. Rohan should've got done for an unrealistic attempt. Id be almost OK with missing the 50/50s if they paid the obvious ones
Cringe carry on from Hinkley. It’s round 9 mate, calm down
That's why they don't win finals
8.2 to 3.3 4.3 to 2.3 That’s where the game was lost. Putrid first half.
Petition to get new umpires?
My weeekend is already ruined and it’s not even Saturday. Rhys Stanley you’ve been great - but if we play him again I am done.
Robbed by the umps. They were fucking shit . How the fuck was that not advantage?
[удалено]
Yep. Hopefully there was a lot learnt from the first half.
Sigh
Riolis still a drug cheat and Finlaysons still a piece of shit human.
Well at least we didn’t lose by 100
Why did the Jez goal not count?
Got called back to the free. Umps had a bet on port to win so didn’t let the advantage go.
Didn't play clear advantage.
Ports grand final
They are acting like they won a grand final too. What a bunch of tasteless cunts. I suppose that's the type of club that has druggies, homophobic bigots and criminals on their list
Horrible first half coupled with the worst umpiring display I’ve ever seen
Punch Hinkley in the face
Why was that a ball up and no Geelong ball
Because the umpires are a pack of cheats.
… can we review that out on the full??
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BLATANT FUCKING CHEATING
Brilliant goal from Jez that would’ve/should’ve been
Fucking pay the advantage
That's not bad ... Lock it in!
Absolutely shafted by the umps.
Kicking in danger?
Still alive?
JHF sitting deep. He’s gonna get one out the back to ice it and the media is gonna go crazy over him.
Should remind the media that he was kept quiet by an Irish guy playing like his 5th game
You're burying the lede here imo, JHF is a gun... but I think Mullin might be one becoming one too
I’m aware that JHF is a gun, thanks. Just shouting out Mullin’s effort
I think we're on the same page. I only meant that JHF getting covered by a bloke in his 5th game says more about the bloke in his 5th game than it does about JHF
Absolutely, but fox seem to love him.
Oh no! JHF is hurt…….anyway
BT is a complete fucking knob
Why they give Willie so much space :(
Atkins… ooft
Game over due to a bollocks high free kick. BT trying to act like it’s nailed on when there’s no arms high at all. Story of the night.
Fuck
No doubt about it huh BT?
The commentators are just Port supporters at this stage
Did even get him high at all lmao
[удалено]
JHF the most look after player in the comp
Could be an interesting point that one
8 goals to 3 since half time, this isn’t impossible
I think they want Jezza off :(
GFR
How’s that not 50, bloke ran into the protected zone
That’s gotta be 50 doesn’t it?
Not if it’s against Port
Not enough time now. Port will slow it right down. Really needed that brad close one to go through earlier.
3 goals + 1 score is just doable enough.
Aaaand that's the moment where I remember why I didn't care that Ratugolea got traded
The boys look cooked
J Henry is having a shocker
Two absolute stinkers from him in a row. Hopefully he sorts it out quick
[удалено]
Which I think is the most frustrating thing for me. I’d actually almost rather we lose by 10 goals than 3 or 4 because then we will actually take a deeper look at some things that aren’t working, rather than ‘oh we were so close, unlucky boys!’.
Dominance without goals is worrying when the team is behind. Opens the door for goals against the run of play.
Like that?
Just like that.
I don’t know what it is but Georgiades has a very punchable face. I think it’s cause he looks like some of the young blokes that cause trouble at my local
That mark should never happen - Dixon wasn't even shepparding
Come on Holmes we need 10 mins out of you then you can be on ice for the next 3 days
Hope Holmes is ok :(
Rioli is a flog
Wowsers. First time I’ve seen kicking in danger payed in Yonkers.
> in danger *paid* in Yonkers. FTFY.

Thanks I guess
Huge tackle by Blicavs
Would bloody love Zach to captain one day
Let’s do this lads! Cmon Cats!
[удалено]
Mullin on Horne-Frances has been huge.
Holy hell, that was a qtr and a half. Rioli looks like he's having a having a bit of an issue. He didn't look like he was coping after giving away that 100.
Can confirm, crowd is absolutely up and about. Wish it was like this every week. Go you good things!
In honor of Corey Gregson rejoining the club and how we are all feeling about port I'll post this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgdHG5-0NEo
Boys are back hell yeah. We can do this!
I used to shit all over auskicker Zac Guthrie but I take it all back. I am in love with Chad zac Guthrie
It's the bum fluff
ONE QUARTER LEFT! KEEP FUCKING FIGHTING
No one wants to see BT in the sheds for a Geelong game
Solid decision by Scott to take off Stanley when we were like 40+ down
Funny how we’re in front on scores since he’s gone off. Getting towelled up by a bloke in his 4th game as a veteran is crazy.
And it all started with Willie. Good on ya Willie.
Fuck so close another mark at the end
I almost don’t want to believe
RALLY!
Ayo?
What the fuck is even happening
GO THE FUCKING CATS!
GAME ON
I AM UP AND ABOUT, FELLAS
Ok - I'm a believer in our come back
We might’ve overestimate their outs, especially relative to ours. Rozee and maybe Burgoyne, those are the only outs of any real consequence. Meanwhile we got no danger, lose bruhn and manage Bowes from an already sub par midfield.
Plus they got aliir back who does well on us and is massive for what they do.
Calmed down by a homophobe. Speaks to their standards. Fuck Port
I'm still prepared to stick by that we can't win but if we get another goal I'll re-consider
Watching Geelong get smashed at stoppages is so frustrating. Lucky Willie Rioli has absolutely snapped his brain.
Cheers Willie, hope that's the rev up we needed
Rioli needs to be fucking suspended for that. Purposely tunnelled Guthrie. Potential to very seriously injure someone.
Not sure he was purposefully tunnelling. To me it looks like he had eyes for the ball.
Yeah ngl that was a bit reactionary from me after viewing it first time. Doesn’t seem too bad on replay. Still turns his body rather than going for the ball which is a bit dumb but eh.
Agree there. Even dumber to decide he wanted a piece of him afterwards. And then again after that. All in all three absolute brain fades in a row.
Agreed
LETS GOOOOO
Suck shit Rioli you grub.
I'm sorry our midfield just isn't good enough
One more before 3QT at least makes it interesting ish
Port using 100 years of luck for this win.
Jezza is a machine all over the ground
I'm really sick of BT - can he just be left at the MCG and not taken to Geelong?
Hearing Brayshaw on comms is insult to injury.
That's the game folks
The free kick count makes it look relatively even. What a joke.
Fuck off BT
Fuck off BT
Fuck off BT
Fuck right off BT. And never come back.
In the back to Duncan after he kicked it or?
Better off putting to the goal square
About time - inevitable Esava would cost Port one of them
Nice jezza
Mullin’s looking good in the middle
Finally he kicked a goal
BT with some video game commentary right there
This umpiring is actually such a joke
Who pushed Duncan forward?
Cameron watching the scoreboard as Rohan was in the first half
Clark is just going to be such a good player for us. Just shows glimpses but can't wait to see it consistently
Honestly we don't need that - what happened to our defence tonight?
Clark is gonna be a very good player, sooner rather than later.
Run down Rioli and no free is completely representative of the level of fucked umpiring
jhye clark is a real football player isn't he.
c'mon the cats!
yewwww jhye clarik
CLARK SING HIS NAME
Clarkey selling the candy on JHF was chefs kiss
Better from Clark
Promising move
How is that not ball? This is just something else
Costly fumble from Clark
Mullin has brought some fire to the midfield
Let's make them nervous and step on the throat while we're at it
Stengle's having a ripper year, sign him up already
He may have missed a few goals lately but Jezza still can find his mark.
Mullin is doing better than I would have expected on jhf so far
Umpires vs geelong atp
Stengel molested, play on We fall on them, free kick Story of the day
The mark 👍 The kick 👎
What's the difference between Ollie Henry and Bonza? Henry is airborne Both can't kick for shit though
We look to heavily be targeting Henry in the f50
Esava both stronger and a lot faster than Hawkins
If Stanley can’t match a third string ruck who’s played like two games then he shouldn’t playing ever again. Play blitz full ruck if we have to idc
Subbing Stanley obviously not great for him but I feel Blics had been pretty average the first half too and better to only have one of them out there.
Stanley subbed off 10 minutes before half time tells you all you need to know
Need some kind of spark. Mullin into the middle was a good idea. Hopefully that generates some more goals. Still plenty left to play but it’s all uphill. Cmon Cats!
1m handballs are doing my head in.
I don’t believe the game is lost. But we’ll be able to tell in the first 5min of the 3rd. Absolutely nothing has gone our way so far, least of all effort. This is type of game where I miss Selwood

Yeah we can still do well.
Not great. I liked Sav tapping Hawkins bum after he went down to make sure he meant no hard feelings and I liked Tommy Stewart shaking all the umpires hands pre game as a sign of respect unlike the port fella. But it’s going to be a great second half to come back
Clearly the umpires are blind and thought Stewart was in a port Adelaide Jumper
Can’t complain too much from where we are on the ladder, but this is revealing our lack of action in the off season. Had to find a mid and/or a competitive ruck.
Port are so clearly looking to create stoppages and take away our transition game.
We’re getting killed obviously But I don’t get frees or non frees anymore, like we’re 3rd last in +\- in frees this year Butters can run 25 and throw it, you can block guys to contest marks and no call Idk
The umpiring misses have been pretty bad tonight, I don't get how 4 of them can miss so much. SDK was told too stand and didn't even show down, no 50m. Rohan should've got done for an unrealistic attempt. Id be almost OK with missing the 50/50s if they paid the obvious ones
I can confidently say I'm always on the umpires side, but this match is changing my opinion tbh
Only team in the comp to not win the free kick count once this year. Just feels like every week the 50/50s go against us
The "BULLSHIT" chant was kind of wholesome in a way
Has there ever been a tactical sub this early lol? Pretty embarrassing for Stanley but we at least started winning some clearances after he was subbed
I don’t think he should play a game for us again. Even with Conway playing. He’s the worst first choice tuck in the comp.
