No wonder we lost

We lack the depth in that area. Murphy's inclusion worries me. Are we making the same mistake we made playing Nick Daicos after the Port game when he first hurt his knee? If Murph goes down with a serious ankle during the game we will be in trouble.

We can win and win well, but that manic pressure has got to be on show.

I don't see why we would choose to play Murphy if there were any risk. It just wouldn't make sense, given that Hawkins is out.
I think Adams will play more in the direct centre, and the challenge is on JDG to step back up. The midfield is, as always, the decisive factor in the equation of the final result tonight.

Just so bias against Collingwood. Massive hard ons for Geelong.

But he was our most effective forward last week - that's how bad we were going.

According to observers on BF, Howe is warming up with the forwards, and Frampton with the defence.

I’m nervous this week,but wasn’t the last two weeks.Maybe I caught a bit of the team’s complacency?

Seriously. Worrying signs that we have to tinker so much this far out.

That was WAY too easy out of defence.

3 cats lining up to score the first goal. Not sure what has happened to Pies famed defensive structure.
