3/4 time

Eagles winning the free kick count though surprisingly

Locked up deep in the last

[Jim05]

Draw

[Rising Power]

One of the worst games I've ever seen. Eags should have (not of) won by at least 5 goals. How much time in their forward half? 70%?

[Michael]

Eagles 25 points

Very close prediction and only 3 points out. 28

[another grub]

What a joke

[Wedgie]

2 more goals scored at Gosford in the A League game than at Alberton today! And the soccer game isn't over yet!

Crowd 1,589.

Crowd at Noarlunga 857.

Nobody can take the moral high ground on crowds this round!!!!!!!

[Brendan M]

Ugliest game of the decade. But interesting too. Port barricaded behind their 2 goal lead for most of the game as WWT peppered the goal from too far out (more than 20 metres!) and just couldn't navigate the wind. Both sides were lucky and unlucky, and it was a very hard but not spiteful contest. A point each probably a good outcome in the end.

[saintal]

Sounds horrid. Not sure you could pay me to watch a replay of it.

One of the worst games I've ever seen. Eags should have (not of) won by at least 5 goals. How much time in their forward half? 70%?

I would agree with that - but perhaps more like 85%.

One of the worst standard games I have ever seen. Division 5 amateurs at best.

I left the game late in the third quarter on account of the appalling stand. I did not care who won because there would be no winners in the aftermath - the fact it ended up being a draw was very ironic.

Anyway, I am not wasting my Saturdays watching this brand anymore. As I exited the ground I demanded the red coat on the entrance refund my money. Not surprisingly they just laughed and refused. Well they might be laughing now but he will be out of a job in about 2 years time when the SANFL implodes from supporters and sponsors walking away due to the standard of the competition

I will note be paying $15 to attend absolute cr@p like that in future. It seems that the skills and standard of the SANFL has fallen off a cliff in the last two years yet the SANFL keep charging a significant amount for adults to attend.

It’s a disgrace what they charge although I’ve suspected for a long time that most of any games crowd
get in with free tickets or season/ home tickets which work out significantly cheaper.
It is so obvious the walk up cost is way to much for the standard of entertainment on offer
Just another example of Zero leadership and any real idea of where the comp has been shoved off to!
Just waiting for the ex Premier to get onto the Commission to complete the farce [ either one ]

I think Hinkley is right in not giving Frampton a game, he is not ready yet (will he ever be?). The strong wind certainly contributed to the amount of errors today but the game had finals type pressure which will hold both sides in good stead. Ideal conditions for Poole and he was clearly our best. Boyd had a terrific second half but unfortunately has injured his knee and could miss games. Missed the class of Goldy and Lewy Saturday and would expect Lewy to be back in the A's against the Bays. Unsure on why Firns didn't play as his big body would have helped.
