Port like us in 2018 prelim. Ambushed and mugged after drinking too bath water. 

Edited by John Crow Batty

 

Based on what I'm seeing the GF will be a cracker. Hard to gauge how good the Dogs are though as Port just haven't turned up. Embarrassing for a side that haven't travelled at all during finals. 

Ken Hinkley is a good Home and Away season coach, that's just about it.

In fairness, they are getting them vs Port not us.

 

 

Yep. Port are giving no resistance so it is hard to work out how good the really are, but Footscray are playing like us

 

Sod this. I'm switching over to the Rangers v St Johnstone game. 

 

Tell Fantasia to pull his usual hammy and get Powell Pepper on to crack some heads!

Drinking Adelaide water is bad enough.

Is there a worse coach in the AFL than Ken Hinkley? 
Tactically he is awful. 

Flat track bullies.

Have been throughout his coaching career.

So exactly how bad is Keith's hammy? Three weeks puts him back in the frame for GF

Keith will be available for the GF.

They never had a disaster of these proportions in Summer Bay!!

Mind you our opponents didn't turn up last night either

Onto Ted Lasso for me.

If l recall, last time we played Dogs we kicked innacurately & got within 4 points of them in the last before they kicked away. We can beat Dogs in 2 weeks just gotta take our chances.

And shafted by the umpires

Jeez you feel for the Lions. To lose by a point to what will be the 2nd grand finalist after some dodgy umpiring decisions, just one week after being bulldozed by the 1st grand finalist.

Brissie would be 5 goals up vs Port tonight, looking at a grand final berth, and every Melbourne supporter would be licking their chops.

So I take it you are not following Ange and his Celtics?

Port are pissweak and showing terrible skills for a supposedly top 4 side.

A few of them have gibbed the contest and that is fatal in finals.

We know how they will play on Lever at least. 
Who takes Naughton? Gonna have to be Smith - nobody can match his athleticism.

Doggies are still vulnerable down back so we will need a huge effort in the midfield but I think our brand is better suited to finals. Port is just flattering them tonight.

In Round 11 Naughton kicked 1.1 from 14 disposals and 5 marks.

In Round 19 Naughton kicked 2.1 from 9 disposals and 3 marks.

Tonight to half time he has kicked 2.1 from 7 disposals from 6 marks.

In other words: twice this year, we've curtailed him.

Their mids dominated also, I’d think ours would give a better showing this time round.

Sets up a ripper of a GF

Both teams had 20 scoring shots with the Dogs more accurate on the day.

Just getting shown up for the flat-track bullies that they are. The surprising thing is that it's happening at their home ground in front of an overwhelming Port crowd!

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
