Being an average side again is going to take some getting used to.

I actually expect us to bounce back strongly in 2022

The game now is just chipping the ball around on the 45 degree.  Been saying all year the game is almost ruined. They need to revert back some rules

Two Tigers both mistackle Whitfield trapped on the boundary and let him run away :facepalm.

In fairness Whitfield was almost in the first row of the seats :o

I know that's why I reckon we bounce back

Everyone will be embarrassed by this season, especially the 2nd half of the year

Just so embarrassing

Still need to tackle properly which we haven't done for most of the year. Too many costly mistackles.

Not almost. Hocking has ruined the game- simple! How one man can do this to our great game is a travesty. The worst administrator to have ever been appointed by the AFL and that's saying something  :banghead

The aim was to get Geelong a flag.

No one had a problem with the man on the mark for 160 years until that idiot decided to change it because he didn't like our pressure game  :thumbsdown.

But but but Wimpley, Slobbo, Fatchison, Kingy et al tell me he's opened the game right up and it's been the best season in decades.... :shh

The one positive from finishing outside the Eight is we 'should' get an easier draw next year. Mind you that's no guarantee as our draw in the second half of this year was classed as easier  :-\.

A lot of things have lined up against us this including the rules and age
We need to adapt / reboot / adjust as what we were doing no longer works
