Do we bring a tall defender in?

Who do you have in mind?

I completely understand that it is not as simple a take is this but when the camera crosses there bloody hell Hinkley looks completely lost in the box 

[layzie 34,148]

I'm gonna start watching Rangers play I reckon. This stinks

Was hoping Port would save this performance for the Grannie. Oh well…… Not happy to facing the Dogs, but our pressure will muzzle them……as long as we bring it.

[Lord Travis 10,763]

This is seriously embarrassing effort from Port. They’ve had a free ride not having to leave home for over a month, while all the other clubs have had to travel and quarantine for finals. Dogs weren’t even allowed to train in Adelaide!
Hinkley should get the sack for this. He’s been there a decade and it’s been a decade of almosts. What an embarrassing performance tonight by the power.

Will be interesting what impact a weeks break will do to the bulldogs?

Will it make them leggy in the GF?

Won't matter, GF is outside the 12 day concussion protocol.  ACLs yor lower-body bone breaks would do the trick.

Examples where you’d expect to hear this phrase “a coat of paint would do the trick” or “a layer of mulch would do the trick.” Definitely NOT the way you’ve used it. 😂

The Port fans don't like him because they think he is a hopeless match day coach, unable to change gears. This is their nightmare scenario.

Stefan Martin's the Dogs' worst player tonight, by a mile.

The question is whether he improves with a week off.

If this is his effort in the GF, I'll gladly take that match up.

Keath will replace Gardiner or Cordy. They'll bring Weightman back but if Martin holds his spot, they'll have to drop Vandermeer or Johannisen.

We couldn't have played worse the last time we played the dogs. We will be fine

[KingDingAling 3,758]

I’d rather play the Bullies. Gawn will smash English in the ruck, and we have better midfield connection at present - than when we played them. Also, Allir Alir smashed us down back for Port last time - won’t miss that. I was hoping the Bullies won tonight. We will beat them. They are going to have to rely on their midfield kicking goals. And it’s unlikely they will continue to do that.

You know it makes sense.

Not taking bets on Port

To be fair to the supporters he’s had a good run at it. This is a sacking type game for him…you can understand the cats performance last night more than this one from port

[Stiff Arm 4,419]

Crunch time Port. Hit them hard!

Talking to you, Lycett and Dixon...

[Garbo 1,550]

Going to be a cracking grand final 

[OhMyDees 1,834]

Where’s Mumford when you need him?

Two of the worst chokes of all time. 2020 and 2021 they’ve had a dream bloody run into and in finals. Two home prelims where they played like absolute gutless morons.

Just one example....

He's allowed Daniels to play his preferred defensive sweeper role all night mopping up at back of stoppage.  What's one of the coaching manual mantras...."try and neutralise or take away the known knowns"

Volkano will have some explaining to do for this pathetic performance. His love child Rozee is a dud

I thought the Celtics were a basketball team based in Boston Maldonboy?

Just to explain - the 's' on Celtic is possessive.

My Scottish wife and her entire family are rabid Rangers fans, and I follow Celtic because of my grandmother. It's a wonder the wedding went ahead actually.
