In Game Action: AFL Rd 17; Carlton vs Geelong at the MCG

We owe Geelong a few good thrashings. Can't see it happening with half a team, but I can hope. Certainly David Teague will want to make a mark with the spectre of Clarkson hanging over his shoulders.

Plowman on Ratugolea. That won't end well.

Hopefully makes them more conscious of team defence.

Turnovers and missed sitters will be demoralising.

Bl00dy good effort from the BlueBaggers that qtr. Poor disposal by foot the only thing that let us down and preventing a qtr lead.

Can we maintain, even improve on that effort/disposal efficiency? Consecutive good qtrs is not our forte. The Pussycats will up the ante in the 2nd, as they often do. Big challenge ahead.

I thought that was a pretty gutsy effort...

But there just feels like there's an inevitability that they'll overwhelm us in the end.
It will only be because we're undermanned on the day.

Our best forwards are spending a lot of time well away from goal.

Poor disposal against top teams is double costly.
