Geary

Post: # 1333377Post joffaboy »

Just thought I would start a thread about Geary. Is still getting better, and tonight completely blanketed Murphy. Hard at it and got Murphy very frustrated.

We praise the likes of Jack Steven and Mac (as we should) but blokes like Geary doing their job for the night really need recognition.

Well done. Keep at it.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Lenny with pace.

He is a good player Gears.

Hard at it.

The midfield run with role seems the perfect fit for him. Unfortunately there seems to be room for just one of this type. Could mean the end for Jones. Don't know who is the better user of the ball. Jones or Geary? Thoughts anyone?

I might sound negative but I just wish you and Geischen would get a room already.

Should have kicked 3 - 4 goals. If he could do that then he'd be one of the best in the league.

Geary's aggression and attack on the footy is just what the team needs. If he took a few of his chances tonight he'd have been close to BOG.

Jones gets more of it. Gears slightly better user. Jones quicker. Geary harder. Take your pick...

Geary, and by some distance. And Gears is 'solid' with the ball at best.

Missed a couple of goals a smart player would have nailed. That's not a bad thing. He will never be that type of player. You know what you are going to get every week with him though. He's grown on me. Going very nicely.

Interesting Malthouse told the Carlton players to target him in the second half. He did the same thing to Clinton Jones at the start of 2010, dog that he is.

Hope he keeps having shots, it's that mindset to hurt his opponent that I like

Good call once again to move him to midfield.

Has really improved and has stepped up again this year, when we need senior players to show the way.

Credit to him.
