Are we a hope ?

[mightytiges]

If we could cut out our mistakes then at least we'd give ourselves a chance.

I know Geelong is the best because of their pressure but bloody elementary mistakes      

We started evening up the inside 50s midway through that quarter but we're lacking marking targets up forward. Morton is getting killed, Jack is quiet and Schulz has done much either.

Trying hard and playing our game but just getting outclassed and forced into mistakes.

Getting killed in the hitouts 19 - 7 which is effecting our ability to win the clearances 15 - 18. Simmo is having a poor game in the ruck. Need more of a contest from him. Patto quiet.

Bartel is killing us. Plough needs to man him up perhaps with Sugar.

Possies:

Edwards, Tuck  16
Newy             13
Lids, Jordie, Tambo  11
Sugar, Jackson    10

Foley only has 9. Ling has shut him down yet has 11.

[mightytiges]

we had the first shot in the 3rd but Newy misses  . Newy doing well on Steve Johnson.

Geelong again run it up the other end after we score a point but thankfully misses.

31 - 57

[Go Richo 12]

Thanks mate, delayed telecast up here, i'm not touching it . Prefer the live updates here! Good to see Titch Edwards having a good one. I rate him big time

[mightytiges]

Frees: 7 - 17

Bronx cheer from the Tiger faithful after we finally get on.

White marks adn Enright gives away 50. Goal  . Set up by Lids.

37 - 57

[mightytiges]

Cotch on Selwood at the moment.

Another turnover (kick over a teammates head) in the centre  sets up a Mackie goal.

37 - 63

[mightytiges]

Lids again pass to Simmo. 48m out slight ankle.

Clangers: 17 - 7 

Simmo doesnt make the difference but Richo take a contested mark on the point post. Miss.

38 - 63

[mightytiges]

We get a turnover off Geelong. Lids to Cotch snaps but misses.

Geelong again run it up the other end  for a Mackie goal.

39 - 69

[mightytiges]

Cats just too good with their skills. Beating us in the clearances out of the centre. Another goal.

39 - 75

[mightytiges]

Tigers doing their overuse in the backline thing again due to the pressure.

Milburn slung Edwards to the ground and he's hit his head. Edwards groggy and now on the bench. Umps pays a free to Milburn for the throw. Goal to Geelong.

39 - 82

[mightytiges]

Edwards doing the concussion test at the moment.

Richo beats 3 Geelong defenders to mark 50m out. Goal 

45 - 82

Are we playing good footy and not finishing and being beaten or just well and truly getting beaten?
