It's the Irish way, see a kid getting knee capped, walk on by, ask no questions, see nothing, look after yourself.

Bryce Gibbs started a fight against the bombers on the siren, Mitch Robinson came in to help him and then Bryce left him to deal with 2 or 3 blokes.

Geelong is demonstrating the benefits of a well-performing VFL team with Hawkins, Guthrie and De Koning all running out with their Magoos. Our fringe players and those looking to prove their fitness and form have just got training.

Then pressure on the score board.
Should do the trick. 
Easy to say but hard to replicate. How much hurt is around missing a win in the Preliminary final last year? Playing the same side again that we were leading by 5 goals plus early in the contest. I don’t see us winning this by who runs out on the field. I think it will be about desperation to do whatever it takes to win with attitude. I have no confidence in this game, but I am happy to see that I am wrong. Pick a few players that want to win at any cost. Willing to do what ever it takes. Curnow will be a huge loss. More goals need to come from the midfield players. Their squad have many match winners but they can be hot and cold depending on the pressure applied by direct opponents. Can we apply the heat early and keep it going for 4 quarters? That is the question. Playing away has nothing to do with it. You either need it desperately or you make up the top 8 numbers.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

As is my want and somewhat irritating to some, I look through a psychological lens at our changes for this game and ask myself one simple question... how confident in their bodies to go flat out for 120 minutes will Doc, Williams, Cerra, Fantasia and Gov be? And that is central to my questioning of these changes. We can reasonably assume that Cinc, Lord and Binns would be confident in their bodies to go hard for 120 minutes. But I get the romance of Doc and the idea of going into the game with your biggest names.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
