If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

port keep playing to the half forward flanks which we love


Whats new? Port do that EVERY WEEK !

Got no one that can take a over head mark up forward so kick to the boundary, get a throw in and try to get a stoppage goal.
Port NO, NONE, ZERO, ZILCH chance of being successful with this tactic EVERY week :roll:

so many out of bounds on the full


Port would have to hold the record for the most out on the fulls this season surely?
They just rack them up every week. Cant believe they have so many inept players that cant kick across their body whether its kicking the ball down the line or having shots at goal. Does my head in watching them ! :evil:

Seriously, Port would be better off not even playing a ruckman the form he is in atm.
Utterly useless with his taps.
How many times does he tap the ball straight to the opposition ruckman ? Either take the ball out of the air when its uncontested or SMASH the damn thing 30 metres rather than just do a fairy tap straight to the other ruckman.
WTF are the coaches doing? I see this crap happen EVERY WEEK !

Fair effort by the Catters tonight.
Port have a shitload of soft passengers currently.

Huge win by Geelong. Very long injury list(15) I think and still got the job done, even with Kelly going down early. Young cats went really well.
Port, plenty of blokes that don't do enough. E.G Westoff, Monfries, S.Gray, White, Young, Broadbent, Stewart. Really struggling to kick a score.
The biggest problem for Port is that they have zero depth in key position areas.

A lot of hype for not much chop.. Lobbe is a shocker but he keeps getting picked , watching pittard if I was a power fan that bloke would do my head in and I'm not sure why monfries is getting a gig he does dead set nothing. Fair to say the 4 is out of the question but one would think the final 8 is still a long way away.. Look like power run out of steam in the last don't they pride themselves on running over sides.. Some concerns maybe down at the power..

Port are just a middle of the road team, nothing more.
Yeah they have a few out but even with everyone available, they're not good enough.
Game plan is shit
Cant get the ball out of defense.
Gets scored against too easily when ball comes out of their forward line.
Kicking skills of a lot of the players are just not up to AFL standard.
Got no effective ruckman
No one can take a contested mark up forward
Last year was a "flash in the pan".

Don't get the hate for Pittard. In a team of hair dos and divers this bloke has real courage.

Insipid performance.

Our skill level wouldn't have cut a division 2 match tonight. Our lack of workrate, our lack of want for the footy, our lack of teamwork around stoppages. Unbelievable.

Season 2015 done- dunno how I'm going to go reviewing this one.
