An early and very succinct review.

Not one of your best but appreciate it none the less.

Melbourne's pressure has been elite.

Didn’t help losing a key defender and replacing him with a midfielder when we were already lacking height on a dry night.

Melbourne’s pressure has been brilliant, their awareness of where their team mates are is exceptional too, they play for each other and are so well disciplined.

We need to play two ruckmen unless it’s belting down.

Going to be a lot of pissed off punters, Port got it under 39.5

Only two teams in the past 60 years have made finals from 0-4

Carlton next week, they’ll be 1-4

True. They took their eye off the ball when your mob ran with the comedy routine stuff. Magic coaching move by Kenny there.

It was pretty simple out there tonight for Port. They got smashed into he contested ball and clearances. Wines being injuried was a killer for them.

Melbourne for first look at it and a team that good just carved them up. Then when they went forward is was like dog shit.

Ports defence actually held on well, it was the medium forwards that got away from them. They really missed McKenzie out there.

There the review. Port need to get some more game time into I Mead, he's had 2 reasonable hitouts now. Get Sinn back into the side and also think about Hayes coming in.

I wouldn't say Melbourne didn't get out of 2md gear, they didn't even start the car lol
