Fears that Josh Kelly may have done an ACL.

Oh the irony. After watering the ground to slow us down the wet SCG is killing Buddy and the Swans are struggling to get forward entry, ha bloody Ha.

I don't think it's true that it's received no attention.

It may be that Scott's team is really quite like Hardwick's... top-ended with about 4 stars and garbage beneath, specialized to play well at one ground only, ... the difference being it's the wrong ground and his club has not avoided injuries.

(Oh, need I remind everyone we lost to Scott's mob too --- though not in a final of course?)

As if that useless tit in a thumb sucking contest Jude Bolton is bad enough now he is talking to Dobber Campbell, At least I have plenty of beer left for the real game to follow. Geelong and Sydney have some big decisions to make about the lists.

Late junk-time goal to Papley, who looks like he also belongs to the group of completely irresponsible footballers who recklessly refuse to wear mouthguards.

Hopefully not but if we are playing GWS next week can Brayden Sier play dfence and play on Toby Greene. I mean he has a bit of Muay Thai training and that might be how to play him. Or some WWE and training and grab his kicking leg in the marking comp and wrench his knee. Fair dinkum, how is that allowed.

I think it's only starting to receive attention now as the poor record manifests itself.

Think you're right on the assessment of the current Geelong team.
