Paddy McCartin is a dead ringer for Robbie “Mad Dog” Muir

He was one scary bastard. Could play occasionally when his temper allowed it

Don't think "Paddy" has that Martial Art touch, his is more "potato" touch......

Mainly low scoring due to shocking conversion rates today

I think you’re being polite with the word shocking RGRS. 32 behinds under the roof?

39.60 in the two games today in great conditions 

Would be very interesting to see that broken down into set shots etc.

With forward pressure I am not surprised by the seemingly low conversion rates.

Mind you Greene and then Shield kicked two beautiful goals on the run from different pockets for GWS.

On a more serious note the team that cracks the accuracy stakes will go far. How they do it who knows.

Was just think how great it is that Port and the Crows moved to Adelaide Oval and ditched AAMI Park.

AAMI was a graveyard for Melbourne, butt we have been fantastic at Adelaide Oval.

I know it's Dangerfield so probably won't happen but he should get many, many weeks for dumping Westoff head first into the turf off the ball.

That was a very dangerous action that could have had disastrous implications...

This is the first time I've watched Jack Watts play for Port. He's been awful.

From the Port forum

Yes saw that but they will move on and concentrate on Lindsay Thomas. He will go down but I am not sure it was that bad. Need to see the replay a few times more.

Thomas was very dirty.

Commentators then quizzed each other on how much of a ‘good bloke’ he is off the field.

See when he jogged in for a mark and the Geelong player just ran past him and took the ball.

LOL you guys are obsessed. He's one of their highest disposal winners. Been involved in a lot of plays. Covered a lot of ground. Has quick hands and decision making. Been asked to swing across half back and the forward line. Laid some tackles. Landed a huge bump in a recent passage of play. But yeah because he's not Dangerfield he's a spud who should be in a dress.

And we're still paying for him!

Good thing we got rid of him so we can make way for hard nuts like..Bugg and...you know...all those other amazing half forward talls we have in our line up.

Where are all the posters who were melting down when Watts kicked 6 in a JLT game?

He is worse at Port than he was at Melbourne.  Terrible footballer.

You must have been very impressed when he completely f****d up that goal opportunity in the 4th. How he made so many mistakes in one passage defies logic.

He's been half paced all game.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.
