Jonesey has his own ad!!

 

Watching in Phuket. Getting some funny looks from the locals with my constant shouting at the tv. Need more composure inside 50. Should be winning easily.

regardless of the umpiring we have a lot of players not doing anywhere near enough especially in the forward line. These guys need to put their bodies in and need to chase and tackle. i wouldnt mind if they tried to kick a few goals as well. We are keeping port in this game, with the sheer weight of inside 50's we should be miles a head at the moment we are damn lucky to be in the lead.

if these guys want to play finals they need to go out and prove it and not just leave it to Viney and others

 

Why do you think we have so many inside 50s?

 

Maybe forward pressure?

Is it just me or is Hogan really out of touch and being just a passenger tonight. Might need to go back down to the VFL and ragdoll a few seconds players to get some confidence back.

Move him up the ground ?

His only mark was on the wing.   Certainly out of touch.

C’mon Jesse ..... a bag in the third and another bag, shared with Tom, in the fourth.

Pleeeease 

Big half for Goodwin imo. He has a team cracking in, and if he can figure out a way to goal, we win.

Was poor last week and poor again this week. If he lifts and gets on his bike this second half we’ll win.

There's a wild Riccuito on my screen. Someone get the tranquilizer gun.

Have you seen the delivery to him?

Missing a small forward likeJeffy. He would have got two by now with the amount of inside 50 ‘s we have had.

Hogan is not the problem. Port are successfully holding us up at the wing, flooding, and he is surrounded by 4 or 5 guys at every contest. There has been zero adjustment. He needs to move up the ground and we need to be cleaner across the middle of the ground. It is not so much delivery going forward that is killing us. We are simply allowing them the freedom to flood.

Bloody Hell, Dermott making sense.....What sort of parallel universe is this?

Good footage of Hogan on Fox Footy not flying for his marks. It was his main skill in his debut year.


Dont understand why we always go wide when going inside 50.

Very scrappy game thus far, need to execute much better to win this. Freezing at the ground, stewy dewy on the ground.

If the game continues on like it has we just need to lower our eyes and we win this game. 

Hmmm. For what it worth, I think the umps have been ok. Port flooding our 50. We have dominated most of that half for not a lot of return. Get off Brayshaws back, he's been good. best game from trac for a half a doz games. Keep this intensity up and we will win. Just need to keep doing the team thing, it will click. Much better effort than QB

 

Port's forward 50 open, open, open. Ours is congested and full of long bombs. 

If you compare our forward syngery this week with previous weeks, it is miles apart. I don't know how many times Petracca knocked over his team mates and then fumbled the ball.

We've been rattled by the Collingwood affair and seem to be lacking confidence (Hogan and Petracca in particular). 


Cannot see us winning like this. Desperation will increase along with a commensurate increase in turnovers and port goald

once they get a turnover and clearance they ran deep into fwd line in that q.

Fritsch? The Smiths? Come on boys lift.

 

No surprise the parochial crowd absolutely influences umpiring decisions. 

The Power fans are totally one eyed, and that eye suffers myopia. 

We have controlled the ball but been very poor with decision making and creating space. 

Every port inside 50 threatens to be a goal as their forward line is so open. Ours is the opposite. 

Spite at end of quarter was more our frustration. 

This game should be ours but could go either way. Many players down but T Mac keeping us ahead with scoreboard pressure. 

Conditions are absolutely perfect for footy. Chilly but no wind and really no dew or moisture. 

8 points on the line here. 

Delivery inside 50 is reminiscent of games 1-5 this season. Bombing to packs blindly. 

Lower the eyes. Melksham does this so well. Everyone else does not.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
