Round 11 - a short one

[valleys07]

LOL JK, bit rough to single out Jonas!

Lobbe- wow..
Stewart, S.Gray...did anyone know these 2 were there?

Just to name a few..

Put it this way- Wingard and Carlisle were the only out and out winners of their positions tonight.

Thought Colquhoun was pretty good.

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..

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

REB

Couldn't agree more.

[valleys07]

Not to mention Enright (supposedly finished), gave Monfries one of the all time great arse whippings off half back.

[MW]

I thought the media retired Enright after rd 1?

Yeah I'm sure he's not the only one in that category mate, probably just follow ex-Norwood boys a bit closer. He's been pretty average most of the season unfortunately. He's a better player than he's showing and will turn it around I'm sure.

Big call considering they are 1 win out of the 8.

As its been said, Port's kicking skills were way off tonight which can come down to confidence as well as not being able to find the space they were able to over the last two seasons. They have Carlton next week then they bye, after which they will be tested against Sydney, Collingwood and Adelaide. After this we can start to talk about them making or missing the finals.

Time to put hawkins in the ruck for a few mins

Time to f**k Hawkins off. He's been useless most of this year. Occasionaly shows a glimpse of what hes capable of

**** Hawkins off? You're on drugs. Yep, he's been crap this year but when it's two against one and our gameplan is all about us kicking it on his head then what chance does he have?

Monfries as overrated as the other Essendon spud Ryder.

Went to the game. I thought the double team worked in Geelongs favour. Felt the second man up spoiled the contest a lot in Geelongs favour. got a couple of goals out of it

[PatowalongaPirate]

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".

Yep, one season wonders like that other Adelaide team that nearly beat Hawthorn in a prelim a few years back. Definitely off the pace.

[marbles]

looks to me like the visiting teams to adelaide oval get hugely turned on by the oval the set up the facilities, whilst the local residents in the crows and port just get overwhelmed by the opposition in such a state, and the crows/port are just over it not that exciting they see the ground 2 3 times a week zzzzz

[carey]

Port crowd sounding very "crow-like" - booing a bad decision for the next twenty minutes after it was paid but forgetting bar that they've had a real good run from the umps at home - again.

That's stupidity to a new level.

Wasn't it you who claimed 'Razor Ray cheats against North Melbourne'?

Please.

Umpires are not at all the fault Port got smacked tonight.

Social media fans beg to differ about the umpiring.
I agree, it wasn't the umpiring.

[mighty_tiger_79]

The morning after the night before
wow.....that result from a Cats perspective I never saw coming and I ain't complaining.

Last night the kids took more charge.

I thought by moving Hawkins up the ground would get him into the match but the move didn't happen.


skill level was again average by both teams.
cats need to desperately sharpen this area up.

I still dunno if it was a wet dream or not....

That's not what Rucci thinks.
He basically blamed the Ports crowd violence problem on it

"On a night when Port Adelaide chief executive Keith Thomas three times appeared on the Oval’s

video screens in a pre-recorded message appealing for model crowd behaviour, the Power fans’

civility was tested by a night of umpiring decisions that will be debated for days.".

Having a chuckle on social media reading port fans blaming the umps, i thought the umpiring was reasonably even it was just ports inability to hit a target going forward which killed them.
How good was Boris, Turned back the clock and the youngsters really stepped up. Stanley has been a nice pick up for us also his first half was sensational.

Umm, no - try again.
