NAB CUP 2: PORT ADELAIDE

[Robot Devil 1,895]

God this is annoying .. every single time something happens in Port Adelaide's favour they start getting way too excited its so ridiculous

I swear you can hear them applauding the Power kicking a goal in the commentary box.

[Chook 14,701]

First holding the ball payed to Davey in the last 6 years?

[Whispering_Jack 28,118]

Sorry but I can't listen to this garbage any more. I'm watching the cricket.

[P-man 13,350]

By the sounds of the commentary, only Terlich, Magner, Sellar, Davey and Tapscott have touched the ball. So far.

[hardtack 10,187]

Aaron Davey sets up a goal to Evans (via Jetta)

[DeeSpencer 23,642]

Considering our team only consists of Magner, Sellar, Davey and Terlich I think we are going ok. Imagine if we put 22 on the park. (Commentary joke for those not paying attention).

Goal to Evans!

The lack of uncontested possessions seems disappointing although kicking with a 2 goal breeze you'd expect us to play more direct and Port to share the ball more.

Jesse Hogan is playing

[Lord Travis 10,327]

They just listed possessions without naming a single Melbourne player, surely someone has touched it?

They have. Magner, Sellar, Couch and Davey going alright thus far.

The commentators are only concerned with Port Adelaide though. The only time they name a Melbourne player or even mention the team is when we score a goal. Otherwise they're just talking about their local team in Port.

50m goal on the run met with indifference and dissappointment, set shot 35m out directly in front as a result of a soft fifty is "goal of the day"...... save us all!

[Gippsland Dee 367]

DAVEY!!! this was the first time the commentators have actually acknowledged a melbourne player doing anything good!

[Kiss of Death 708]

Cheers for the score updates in here guys. Never touching 5AA again. I'd rather swim in a sewer. Even K-Rock is favourable

Thank God Ollie Wines missed that goal. Toumpas JUSTIFIED!!!

[hardtack 10,187]

Seriously, people here are getting upset over nothing. Sure the commentary is extremely biased, but there had been 4 or 5 pages of preamble on this thread that had established that that would be the case... so no surprises there.

The way I treat it is to get excited every time that the commentary quietens down.

And to say that they have said something good about Davey only is nonsense... I have heard a few complimentary comments directed at other players and to our forward line pressure generally.

[P-man 13,350]

Clearances 8-3 to Melbourne. That's different.

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

We are winning the clearances and Sellar is presenting well. But it's all because of the breeze according to 5aa. Good to see Evans score.

Interesting Dipsosals 96 port Dee's 59

according to AFL stats Undefined has a kick for Melbourne!

It's more amusing then annoying for me. I will only hear this once a year. So I take it as a bit of a laugh. I wish they would call it a ball up and not a bounce down though.

[waynewussell 4,235]

Perhaps Undefined is the Hogan mentioned in the 5aa call

I just find it amusing. Letting their bias annoy you would do your head in.

I can't get the radio to stream through any of your links it just replays the same little bit. I can see scores and stats though very frustrating

Well the AFL's new ad has a couple of fisherman from god knows where watching live footy but for us aussies we suffer with their website.

[Tony Tea 2,792]

Community radio slop.

[waynewussell 4,235]

Barry has 3 disposals but I doubt you've heard his name called
