To the team's credit they showed they were up for a fight and slowly willed themselves back into the game with some creative play and willing to take the game on. Importantly, they still retained the discipline, accountability and structure which forced Port to continue to play the chipping, stop-start game that we saw particularly in the first quarter.
Early on I felt we were getting smashed in the rucks with Redden getting his hand to most ball and giving his onballers first use. His absence later in the game was telling and Bornholm was finally able to dictate the play. FWIW I still think Bornhom is a little small for a ruckman and gets monstered against these giants. So it will be really important to get Thurlow back.
Usual suspects all played well, in particular Goldsworthy, Boyd and Petrenko I thought. Not really sure why Jarrad had such a quiet game. Lewis looks unfit and slow but obviously missed early in the season with injury. Assume him to get better.
Now we have beaten the grand finalists and our next challenge will be to make sure we keep these high standards and ensure we don't drop our guard to the less fancied teams.

From what I saw on Saturday there was very little talent and surely none likely to be drafted from this team. At the end their fitness level looked appalling or was this just the lack of talent. Let the players go to other SANFL clubs where they would most likely get better coaching and get into a better fitness regime.
According to Eagle sources, there were at least 7-8 players playing in the reserves reserve that were zoned to and should be playing with the Eagles either at U18 or reserves level. If the players are not up to U18 or reserves level at least let the Eagles have a look at them first.
Is the redistribution of the SANFL league zones on an equal playing field when players in the Eagles zone can play for the powers reserve reserve team?

Funny its been reported elsewhere how Bomber beat the port ruckmen .
He certainly did from where i was sitting , In fact many eagles fans could be heard saying Redden didnt play that bad when he was an Eagle.
Redden was only gone from part way through the last quarter .
Lewis looked better against the dogs .
Hayes who you didnt mention was praised by the Eagles coaches for a much improved game once moved forward .
Just as an Eagles member and fan how about a bit more happiness when the Eagles win .
Really tiring reading negative stuff by Eagles fans when they win . then again most of the doomsayers have gone missing since the eagles have won 3 in a row and are Equal top with the best percentage !!
