Apparently we should hand the cup to Geelong already.

This year’s Premiership Geelong’s to lose

Need to play the territory game in the wet today. So all those quick taps and knock-ons we used against Brisbane to break open their defensive structure will again come in handy.

The key for us is going to be at least matching the Cats in the contests and post-clearance stuff. They smashed us in that department last time simply breaking out of our tackles and out of the front of contests making it hard to defend.

Skills are deplorable

U10s skills  . Can we miss any more open targets?!  .

Jack overkicks it but luckily all the Cat defenders misjudge it and Cotch marks 35 out. Misses.

We haven't had one clean chain of possession yet  .
