Actually I think everything he has done tonight has been OK. All his disposals have been clean and have gone to a player in a better position. Not a game changing performance by any means but not woeful. 

I've lost count how many times thats been said about him over the journey.

Hes a 171 game veteran, and yet still plays like a 2nd year player.

    Bombers massively overrated by media. Have had a charmed run meeting injury depleted sides for their “best wins”. GWS, WCE, Port, even Sydney were missing plenty. Not to mention Richmond last week. Ladder absolutely reflects where they are at.

    Cameron Ling writing us off in the finals due to lack of experience, and the Cats can go deep in September but hes not being biased he said.....

    Well he has gone to the "Channel 7 finishing school" to be able to come out with waffle like that. Biased my foot. Stupid, stupid comment only outdone by his looks.

    He was also one of the lowest ranked players on the field. His career is running on fumes now unfortunately. This will be his last contract.

    Potting Watts, Motlop and Rockliff is barking up the wrong tree

    Port have a massive cultural issue with the likes of Wingard, Gray, Westhoff and Dixon

    Selfish footballers who never, ever involve teammates

    It might be Watts' last contract, ever, but Hinkley needs to take charge now or he'll be gone too

    With Ports loss we are now guaranteed to play in September. Well done boys. 

    Say what???

    Port could have won by 40 goals and they still wouldn't have made it. 

    Geelong were the only ones with any interest in that game and I doubt they were even watching.

    So it turns out our drought-breaking, finals-securing win was the 90+ point win over Gold Coast two weeks ago. Sure didn't feel like it at the time.

    Imagine we lost last week and tomorrow, most likely 4 teams would miss finals on %. Crazy year!

    You obviously didn't notice Westhoff mark 30 out on an angle, but clearly gettable, pass to Ryder straight in front, but a bit further out.

    Westhoff had 5 goals at the time and that would have been number 6 for him.

    The Hoff and Robbie Gray are two of the most unselfish and brilliant players in the competition

    Westhoff in particular is severely underrated everywhere outside of Alberton

    Port’s midfield is very one-paced outside of Polec - and it looks like he’s definitely on his way to North for their first round pick, which they are desperate to get rid of so that they aren’t forced to pay ‘overs’ for Tarryn Thomas

    Goddard - anyone?  It’s not beyond reality. He is still very good. 

    As our runner. He'd be great at delivering the messages.

    Goddard to maybe the Blues or GC,  but nowhere else IMO.

    Oh well BJ won't get to star in his premiership movie he said would be written after the drugs saga.

    Hird can now stop predicting essendon can win the premiership.

    No, I only watched snippets of the yawn fest

    My post is based on long term observations and actions, not one incident

    Posters are bagging out Watts, et al, but their cultural issues run deep

    Ports mid-field was seriously exposed. 

    With Leuenberger off the field, Ryder should have had a field day with Stringer as his opposing ruck.  But there was no-one to hit it to.  Incredible. 

    Ollie Wines not sighted for most of the match.  Wingard doing anything but kick the ball.  Gray looking for the season to end.  If it wasn't for Westhoff kicking 5 the result would have been very, very ugly......and we don't want to give the drug cheats that much hope for next season.

    Incorrect. Geelong is likely to win, therefore if Port were to win by 150 and we were to lose by 150, they'd have come in for us. It went right down to the wire.

    OK you got me there Prada....  But I think it would have to be closer to dare I say it 186 each way lol. 

    Our +/- is over 500, Ports is just over 100!

    Freo, please show some pride and avenge last weeks woeful performance. 

    Nobody, I repeat nobody, wants the Pies to finish top 4 and everyone wants Melbourne to steal 4th spot from them.

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
