Port v North Melbourne

Postby NO-MERCY » Fri Jun 18, 2010 5:40 pm

Can North make it 6 losses on the trot for the Power?
I'm very confident they can especially seeing Port can't drop out of form players eg. Motlop.
As much as you hear Power players on the radio saying they are in support of Motlop. thats a load of crap, the only one that has his support is Choco.
Choco is ruining his coaching reputation showing faith in a bloke thats only out there for him, himself & i, i do feel for the blokes that play 1 or 2 average games & are then dropped yet i can't or don't understand Motlops GOLD CARD in the side.
The losses will continue & it wouldn't surprise me a record of 10-11 straight losses is on the way. :oops:
Something to match the record grand final margin loss!!! :oops:

Chocco and his gold passes hey. I get the feeling he is waiting for Motlop to be the game breaker that he always threatens to be. But in the meantime he destroy's team harmony.

Worrying for the Roos. Young team on the way up, only game on in Melbourne, good time slot and only get 15,000 to a game they would have been thinking was a certain win. :shock:

Mates of mine went over, I spoke to them last night. They were a fairly dissappointed that they were not ( on their first visit to the Dome ) able to go up to the top tier to watch some of the game. The Roos only had the bottom level and a small part of level 1 open to spectators. The crap we copped for covering some of the bays at Footy Park in advertising and they dont even open up half the stadium... :roll:

Good signs for a team on the rise.Not.

15k is what I expected, considering the weather was shithouse outside the Dome and it was live on TV. Averaging 30k to our last 2 home games so cant complain.

Blocking off the top tier is very smart, gets the crowd on the lower levels and creates more atmposhere, if you have ever been to the top tier at Docklands the view is pretty ordinary so you dont want to have to sit up there unless forced anyway. Its exactly what Ive been saying Port should do at AAMI, instead of blocking off sections of the ground close to the action they should be blocking off the Northern stand.

Anyway lets get onto the footy, great result and sets us up for a crack at the finals. How good was Boomer!

See Chocco is making excuses again, saying they played "OK" - thats not the PA I remember....how do the die hards feel about him accepting losses?

I reckon Port's need to make the decision to invest in Daniel Stewart, think he is a VERY bright prospect and could be a key contributor going forward for them.

Agreed i thought he marked well and has good skills, When he fills out a bit more i can see him being more that handy as a key forward or even as a tall CHB that can run similar to Bock.

Stewy is surprisingly quick for his height but will lose some pace when he bulks up. Still he has the natural ability to hold down a key pos if given the chance to develop the confidence.

I was at the Bay match so didn't see the game.
I was very happy to see Danny Meyer and Josh Carr got to play footy this week.

Checked the AFL website for their stats, but I'm interested in hearing from people who watched, on how they went.
