Round 12 - the Datsun 120Y games.

Just got home - sat down thinking I might veg out on the couch and watch a bit of footy on the tv and realised who was playing, well I thought, I might wait for the next game and watch a bit of that one instead till I realised who was playing next.

No AFL for me this arvo - what a dud set of games

People saying why the public is staying away and for me it’s this, too many dud, dull, inconsequential games.

Wet Coke with the continuous excuse of playing bad (tanking?) again.

Mark Ricciuto as the boundary reporter doesn’t help. So one sided. Turned the game off.

Simpson's a dud. Get on the boundary and pump your players up instead of sitting there like a goose looking satisfied your team's gonna come back.
 
Or Healy. Absolute flog of a bloke.
The difference is Ricciuto is biased towards the Crows and given his background that makes sense, but Healy is biased towards West Coast, despite having no association with them at all.

The commentators are unbearable
1 min into the game,
David King 'Tarryn Thomas looks on song today' what after 1 tackle?
Dwyane Russell 'Horn smith looks lively' 2 touches 9 min into the game.
Who hires these blokes??

GC not picking Casboult and just relying on Chol might cost them 4pts.
Chol has no desire and no read of the game, he just stands and watches Young mark the ball.
 
Remember when the media was slapping themselves that North ripped GC with the recruitment of Greenwood.
I don't think they will show themselves today
 
Having Shovekins and Cameron up forward is the only thing keeping Geelong afloat.

There is nothing else.
He isn't that good. He can't take a contested mark to save himself. The smurf spoiled him in a contest. He shouldve just walled off the ground .
Everything is on the back of running into open spaces and small 12 metre passes.
 
I have a friend who is involved with the dogs coterie.

Jungle drums are banging that he wants out. Terrible relationship with the Coach. Partly because of the coach but also JUH’s ego.

The call another club will have to make is whether he struggles because he is so unhappy at the dogs or whether it’s because he isn’t good enough.
Met Jamarra about a week before the draft. Had no idea who he was. Had a good chat with the kid and asked about school etc. Not once did he mention football. Might have changed but certainly didn’t appear to have an ego at all pre-draft.

6 games this year for 4 goals and 29 disposals. Not exactly setting the world on fire. Didn’t show much when he played Richmond.
 
When you use free agency to pick up players like Aidan Corr, the club needs to think about merging or just shutting down
