Port Adelaide 2015

[Lightning McQueen]

The same could be said for a few players at the moment.

For sure, I do find Schulzy as somewhat a barometer for the power though.

was it everyone yelling BAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL when a finger was put on the opposition that turned you away?

It was how quick they bagged their own players when they were getting beat, how ripped off they got from the umpiring decisions and how more concerned they were at seeing their cross town rivals fail more than their own success, facebook hasn't done anything to make me like them more, it's a shame as my son supports them, may father that recently passed away idolised Rory Sloane which reminds me of him every time he gets the ball and I reckon Tex is an absolute champion bloke.

You've quoted every one eyed supporters mentality regardless of team. Don't be so naive to think it is only Crows mate.

Just an observation after going to pretty much every game that was played at AAMI for a whole season and sitting in the members, I was appalled, I detest fickle supporters and it's of my opinion that the crows ones are worst than Port, each to their own though and I wish both SA teams well, and Freo along with Sydney, Geelong, Gold Coast, Brisbane, West Coast and Carlton I guess.

Final side confirmed for Sunday.

In: Carlisle, Wines, Gray.
Out: Mitchell, O'Shea, Broadbent.

Agree with the first 2 outs, but the omission of Broadbent is very surprising. Sure- he hasn't been in great touch, but there have been far worse players in our side than him.

He doesn't get an opportunity at redemption either, due to the state game

[Chuck Wepner]

Should've been Pittard.

FB and Ruck Rover in is big. Makes us look much stronger.

Anyone want to use my 2 season tickets Sunday? Me and mrs can't make it.

On the injury list, Marbles. Lower leg and is still out for another 2-3.

Shin Splints, IIRC.

From my understanding, no. If you suffer splints, I believe it requires strengthening of the lower leg muscles to release impact on the Tibia.

If problems persist- the only remedy is to completely change your running action to reduce or completely release your lower leg of impact (Chi Running).

[carey]

Started like shit yet again.

Apparently it's ok for the full back to kick across goal to a 3 on 1 the oppositions way. Goes against everything every coach has ever told me.

Drop this and it's curtains for season 2015.

[marbles]

aww port again being forced wide

hello! the port players are choosing to go wide, they dont even look down the corridor, all sideways bs

[wristwatcher]

We were very ordinary today. Skill level was deplorable.

Just Today????

West Coast, Brisbane and now Richomnd. Do not deserve to play finals losing 3 in a row to that opposition.

If I knew the answer to Ports problem I wouldn't be sitting here eating Chocolate and watching England lose the cricket. But the facts are Ports season is falling away very quickly. Have the lads read the papers to much and just think it will happen? No idea.

Facts are these on Today
- Carlile got smashed by Jack just gives to much space and to slow to close it
- Hartletts foot skills were div 7/8 at absolute best
- We had 14 blokes with single figures in the kicks column
- Trengrove, Ryder and Carlile didn't have a single tackle between them
- And you could almost write down the best players each week before we start. Not good enough.

Hombsch was good, Boak worked his ass off, Grey Good, Monfries worked hard and Ollie was super in close.

I hold serious concerns for the rest of our year.

[JK]

Thought Boak was uncharacteristically fumbly at times tonight.

Got sore shoulders from carrying them all year. Easily in their best 2-3 again today

[carey]

I think your both right!

I still love the way Boak leads, Just wish a few would follow his lead.

No question there mate, he is a great leader on and off the field. I've never seen him not work hard.

Port lost without Phil Walsh

Meanwhile Phil walsh's boys have 2 small forwards in Betts and Cameron keeping them in top 8

And meanwhile Jake neade is being made invisible in sanfl

Ports key forwards tonight shultz & Ryder? How can shultz get into the game if the midfield refuse to play corridor footy? Ryder is supposed to be there as a third tall so where the hell is ports centre half forward?
