Ports young kids stepped right up last night. None of them looked overawed

Our young kids simply must get to that level. Otherwise mid table will be our sealing

Cats were poor. Very poor.
 

best - Dangerfield, Tom Stewart , Parfitt, Stanley, Tuohy 

the rest were lost 

disgraced - Rohan, Dahlhaus, Miers

ineffective - Ablett, Selwood, Guthrie, Duncan. They could not run and execute. 

The biggest fail - Hawkins goal kicking. 5 behinds , one on the full .  Three were definitely bad misses that he should have swallowed. 
 

Scott putting Danger forward in the second half.  Crap coaching. 
 

Port applied pressure but Cats choked.  

All I saw Stanley do was drop marks.

Worst part of last night was Bruce McAvaney's Geelong-biased commentary.

That trio or Rozee, Duursma and Butters are good to watch, they back themselves to take the game on and often it pays off

You’re not wrong! How many ways did he say that Ablett was “almost” having a quiet night. It was embarrassing

I can't stand that bloke commentating, he is the main reason I have the tv on mute when I now watch the footy, 13 year old schoolgirls aren't as hysterical as him.

Ever been to Kardinia Park?

I despise Jeeelong

Hawkins had a massive choke tonight

He copped it from the crowd 

don't get me wrong, i'm no geelong fan but as @Diamond_Jim put it, port fans are very much like pies fans on steroids, just hate the port supporter base a lot more.

McAvaney got on my nerves throughout. His hyperventilating when danger scored that goal nearly made me spew!

I am not doubting that. But they are over the Border. 
I resent being sent to Jeelong every year, and love watching them choke 

The first week of finals is probably my favourite week. Four quality games is just about perfect for the armchair fan especially when they are played in different States under different conditions.

I find him tolerable with certain clubs but completely intolerable with others.

He's impossible to listen to when he's commentating Geelong or Richmond (and in previous years the same issue was with Sydney and Hawthorn). He's also not ideal with West Coast or Collingwood, albeit it's not as bad.

He should give it away.

So Goodwin still has a better finals record than Chris Scott over the last three years. Geelong need to get over WC or Collingwood to draw even....?

2018-2020 Finals record:

C Scott 1-4

S Goodwin 2-1

Good contest this. Tigers seem to have edge.

I know its only quarter time but Richmond looking ominous.  I sense they are here to win. Brisbane will need to  take all their chances if they are to win.

Look at the Pressure in this 2nd Quarter, we should be playing in this game Goodwin. 
Get real and do your job MFC


Cracking game so far!

C'mon Lions!

Can someone please tell Bruce to shut up!! He doesn’t have to repeat everything twice or keep asking rhetorical questions. 

 

There have been some carp games this year, but Lions v Tiges is a cracker. Love seeing the Tiges get rattled. Lions have absorbed the pressure, and their guns are emerging the further the games goes. Rayner, Cameron, Neale, Hipwood, McLuggage. 

Makes me so b****y annoyed that we are not playing finals.

He's painful to listen to.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
