Re: Can Longer save Richo's hide??
Longer provides a stronger presence at ruck contests. He won more tap outs than McEvoy and I thought more than held his own. McEvoy kicked 2 goals, one where Billy was pushed in the back & the second he was not in the ruck. He is vital against Mummy next week - better option than Hickey. There i...

Re: Match thread v cats
Very good effort - showed we can beat anyone. Got some bad decisions, Longer, Riewoldt injured, Steven etc ran out of legs, Gresham had a poor game, coaches should have tried harder to clamp down Selwood, Dangerfield, bit of experience won the game. Scoreboard flatters Geelong. Developing sides main...

Re: Billings and mccartin
McCartin has not reached 21 yet, he is a key forward, Petracca is just another solid midfielder, no gun in my opinion. As has been stated a number of times, good key forwards are very hard to find or very expensive. I do not expect McCartin to really have an impact until he is 23 or 24, about when w...

Re: Petracca v McCartin
My only concern with McCartin is keeping him on the park. I have no doubt he was the right choice & he will be a gun forward, and has shown plenty already.
One gun forward is worth 2 top midfielders - and midfielders are much easier to recruit/poach.

Re: Luke Dunstan to be traded?
A lot of people look at the stats after the game, watch the highlights, but don't really see the work Dunstan does in the clinches, getting the ball out to advantage. One of our most valuable players, every team needs a couple of Dunstans. Already one of the midfield leaders. Surely there is no thou...

Re: Billings
A mistake, I think, to try to turn him into something he is not ... a tackling machine, grunt type of player. Sure, work on his weaknesses, but get him to play to his strengths. Good vision and good reader of the play and creative. Maybe a run and carry out of defence role? Anyway, nowhere near rea...

Billings stats and effect on the game was about the same as Gresham who spent more time in the middle - Jade no good either? Some people have no patience

Re: Montagna
Joey is performing his role well - an attacking back. When we have the ball his job is to if possible run with the flow. Occasionally that leads to rebound and sometimes we are not zoned off correctly. Coaches are prepared to wear that to continue the attack and run strategy. Savage performs the sam...

Re: Billings.
Comparisons Bont vs Billings are a waste of time. True, Bont looks one out of the box - happens every draft, even Bulldogs are pleasantly surprised. Having said that, Billings is learning a new role (midfield etc) get a tank to round out his game, get used to close attention, etc. Bont has rarely be...

Re: Team v Dees
Agree with selections.
Lee did a few things in the 2nd half last week, but was beaten in first half - did not read the ball on occasions in flight, and was in the wrong position, ie Cameron mark over the back. Not sure whether he will make it unfortunately.

Re: Terrible Trade Period
Don't understand the negativity here. It may be one of our best trade periods. 2 top 10 picks, 14 pick, and a 20's or so pick at a discount. Carlisle is top 10 in form - and it is good that the video came out whilst he was an Essendon player - the club would have been aware he had some issues, and n...
