Round 10 V Richmond

[Booney]

Bloody hell.

In - Hitchcock
Out - Salopek ( Omitted )

WTF did Hitchy do to get back in and why is it that only Sal gets the arse after the shite we dished up last week?

Growing increasingly frustrated with selection.

Hearing ya Boon!

I cant understand a side that could really do with some experience (c.cornes a prime example) continues to persist with youth. Yes im going back on my words to what i said at the start of the year but now i believe that development of the kids can only be effective if they learn from better or more experienced players to play alongside.

Bemused as to what is going on down there at the moment....as for the game. Richmond comfortably by 30+ points.

Havent you been watching Booney, Hitchcock is the tall strong marking go to forward we've been craving.

It is incredibly frustrating when even in the SANFL wrap of the last couple weeks they state that Hitchcocks defensive pressure is non existent and he is afraid to put his head over the ball, along with the fact he is a poor finisher. What are the last 3 traits Port least needs to add to an already struggling side. And for god sakes get a reserve ruck in there, Brogan will more then likely retire next season and Primus is pushing this development of youth for the next premiership run., but pretty hard to win one with Westhoff rucking FFS !

Well ill be buggered! First time this season we have produced as close as possible to a 4 quarter effort and got the result we deserved because of it. Wasnt the most pleasant game to watch due to conditions and both sides lacking skill and polish of the top sides but when challenged a few times over the course of the game managed to hold firm rather than capitulate into nothingness.

Goes to show when our better players fire (gray, boak, brogan (outstanding) and thomas) we are a much better side. Best game ive seen pearce play in a long while and was a very smart move by primus to play him on deledio in an offensive tag. I thought jacobs and o'shea showed glimpses of the future and westhoff stood up when needed.

Also whilst it was FAR from pretty i thought bobby carlisle's job on riewoldt was first class. Yes conditions didnt suit the big men but jack can play small and i thought bobby did his job brilliantly.

Over to the blues now, bloody tough ask, here is hoping the blues come out with the mentality they are playing the bottom side and we can snatch 2 in a row
