i think gellong had to lose eventually this season, thompson was proably some reason but not the main one

Bomber Thompson and Brendan McCartney would of provided huge insight into how Geelong can be beaten. Masterstroke of the night was Welsh's defensive roll on Scarlett until Welsh got injured obviously. Making Scarlett accountable and not letting him roam free across half back was massive.

Go Dons!

nope! too many mistakes made by geelong, they were not on their game.. running into eachother.... dropped marks ect ect

The masterstroke was the coachs but also the players desire to win... gutsy effort

Watson was out aswell so they cancel each other out.

You can't really say the only reason is because of Bomber :P. Of course he knows Geelong, but it doesn't mean we'll beat them everytime we play them ;).

We were missing Watson and Lonergan (inside mids) but Howlett and Hocking stood up 8). Not to mention others who found their game and bobbed up everywhere (e.g Ryder, Heppell, Melks, Fletch, etc). I'd leave it to the players like eski said and Geelong kinda bound for a loss.

I was stoked with the way Colyer stood up in the last, great signs from such a young player.

Add Milburn, Varcoe, and Joel Corey.
Geelong missed Corey, Varcoe and Selwood, there is three good players that would usually rotate through the midfield.

Myers, Watson, Lonergan and Hooker are important for us 2.

I know they are LTI but add Winderlich and Demppsey to that list.
