We were in seventh spot when Geelong beat us in round 16 last year, this year we are three games clear of forth, which is alot more comfortable than last year, although you are right in saying that we musn't loose our confidence. The boys seem to have been lacking in a bit of something that was so dominant before the mid year break. Our major ball winners have been a bit off with Aker having only 11 touches and Welsh with just 8 against Geelong.
I think we need to focus on beating Carlton this Sunday, and one of the first things I believe we need to focus on is to put more pressure on the ball carrier, we had that down pat before the break, Geelong just toyed with us in the last quarter yesterday yet still applied enough pressure for us to keep making rushed decisions and ultimately turn the ball over. We have been applying that sort of pressure to teams and our last quarter efforts have been so much better, we are better than a 61 point thrashing from Geelong.
