POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 21

[Left-Field 71]

We turned it on in the first half. Third quarter wasn't great but the old Melbourne would've rolled over at that point. Instead we blew it back out to 7 goals, despite the lack of impact from our key players. Great win.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

The second half was so bad because the first half was so good and our poor skills is what let Port back in.

Getting a few goals right at the end made up for a lot.

[Bang Bang Bang 5,826]

I feel like making a gif of every Oliver possession, he's a magician.

When will Neville Jetta get his due recognition? He's pretty much a mini-Rance for us, with better disposal.

Max brilliant again.

Not his best game but how many players can kick goals from that pocket? Watts made it look easy.

Hogan has probably shot himself in the foot with the stalled contract negotiations. His value was higher last year. Bad luck buddy.

I only read the match day thread so...should I start slashing my wrists yet?

Yes. It was a horrible loss. Pass the hose through the window.

[Nasher 33,616]

Max Gawn just high fived every Melbourne supporter in Adelaide. Where are Clint, JV7 and co?

[Earl Hood 6,086]

We won?

Great last Quarter Demons. 

They threw it all at us and the young kids stood tall. 

Yes it was ugly and we missed some shots but we kept Port to 14 scoring shots

next week i hope Garlett spends some time in the midfield. Let him run...

[Crompton's the man 659]

in anticipation, that is ....

[red and blue forever 1,030]

Good win  can relax again for anoTher week

 

 

Nice to win away  something we are improving on This season

 

Our best players were off and we still had a 40 point win so when they are on we can be quietly confident of bearing anyone now

 

As for hogan  he is still a kid   in his second year   he will have off days  this is normal even for the best players     lets give him a bReak

 

 

Bring on carlton

 

 

9th    somehow i am not happy wiTh that...

 

[The Reverend 1,736]

I'm loving this feeling.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,219]

Smashed em in the first half, weathered the storm in the 3rd and played all over them in the last and won by 40. Should've been 60. I'll take that every day of the week.

Smash the Blues this week and it's gonna be tough finding tickets for the Cats game. Has Western Oval in 87 written all over it.

[Mazer Rackham 14,971]

Sorry to report that Jesse was really getting into the team song. For all you body language experts.

[dees189227 12,394]

Wow not having foxtel and just relying on looking at scores on the net and reading on this Im shocked that we won. reading comments about Jones shouldnt be captain, bernie's disposal was hopeless and viney was quiet and Hogan should be traded. Well maybe it's a sign that we can cover these boys when they are down. We no longer have to rely on our captain to do everything. Now Oliver, Brayshaw, Tyson and Hunt now step up. 

People we have won 3 in a row. We have won 10 games. YES 10. We have just won interstate and against a team we haven't beaten in years. I don't include Nab challenge. For years we have complained when we lose and people want to give up and now we are winning and now 3 in a row people are still complaining. 

Turn up next week at the G and get behind the boys. 

Sorry I'm about to be a hypocrite but geez some losses are going to come back to bite us.

Totally agree!

[Mr Steve 3,820]

Next week is the game we have to win. Lost it last year. Just hope their not thinking about the Cats the week after.

[What 18,810]

First win over Port in South Australia since 2000.... our Grand Final year

[Chook 15,013]

Maxy currently high-fiving everyone in the stadium.

[Guest]

Our defense was excellent. Thought both McDonalds, Jetta and Hunt played great games.

I was down there but didn't quite get there. What a legend he is.

[Whispering_Jack 30,143]

My dilemma for tonight.

Do I watch the replay of Port Adelaide v Melbourne or do I watch Usain Bolt?

Getting pretty sick of winning now TBH
