Frawley kicks a goal to put us 13 points down despite everything. The first 10 minutes of the first quarter was good, and the last 20 minutes of the second quarter was also good. Keep it up and we'll be in the mix all day.

13 points at half time

This game is there for the taking

Kent in for Watts please

Well we fought back... Hope they can rip in after half time.

Really interesting moment in that build-up to the Frawley goal where Bail had the ball in the clear but actually looked to go sideways!

Thankfully he kept running and hit Frawley but to even think to take away all of his momentum by going sideways was just dumb.

Wow, I thought Collingwood and Richmond crowds were bad, Port are right up there.

At least we don't have to put up with Bruce mcaveney,s continuous statement ending in a question?

Really good insight shown by the pantsman don't you think Leigh?

Glad to see some having a crack and working us back into the game. Strangely this year our 3rd qtrs haven't been too bad. Nows the time for a blinder though.

Go Dees

Wouldn't mind seeing Howe go forward, just give us a different dimension up forward, I doubt any of the port defenders could go with him in the air.

move Vince to half back

Happy with the fight back considering they couldn't do anything right for 15 mins there - some poor umpiring but u need to take the good with the bad - that last Frawley goal was a gift from a soft free on Gray

On Watts he is elite reader of play and ball user but he is poor at most other facets..... If u could put Watts skill in Dawes body you'd have quite a good player

Loving pigdogs work as well. Boys need to keep doing the basics right and we could be a sneaky chance.... probs only a small chance

Tackles at half time:

  1. Lobbe - 8
  2. Riley - 7
  3. Cornes - 6
  4. Wines - 5
  5. Gray - 4

Has more than Vince, Tapscott, Pedersen, McDonald, Jamar, Grimes, Dunn, McKenzie, Howe, Frawley, Watts, and JHK combined

Watts hasn't been great but he has plenty of mates, and when he gets it he makes good decisions backed by excellent disposal.

This is streets ahead of most others and he is not worst.

We may be seeing why Blease has struggled for a game as well.

Wot a man -

He missed that easy goal I'll forgive that becuase I love his effort

I agree CB

I don't like it ATM - boys first instinct is to go backwards or sideways - under certian circumstances i agree but when you win the ball and have run it should be all forward movement

Riley finding form

2015 will be good.

Watts absolutely did not squib that , he needed to get lower and go harder against a smaller player.

Posted (edited)

By my reckoning several players have a half of footy to show they might be part of the future

Watts ( Does not do anywhere near enough or want it bad enough)

Tapscott ( Limited)

Blease ( Pace, but that's about it)

Mc Kenzie ( Sorry, but I still cannot believe how a bloke with the skills of a park footballer still gets a game at AFL Level)?

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
