Is it me or the umps torching Port? 

I think you are right. I can’t work out what rule a number of these so called frees are awarded for.

    Apart from Collingwood (whom they lost to), St Kilda have had a hell of an easy run so far this season. Not the least bit surprised that they’re going to lose this one.

    Both of these teams look average. Very little composure to be found on either side this last quarter. 
     

    Saints supporters aren’t letting their unfamiliarity with the rules get in the way of their passion.

    The booing of Horne-Francis is seriously dumb.

    We booed Tom Scully for years, after at least serving out his initial contract. JHF did something that undermines the integrity of the draft basically. Imagine if every #1 did what he did.

    I only watched the last quarter, but At Kilda lacked a lot of composure, they didn't look like a quality side to me.

    We might have booked Scully but the rest of the comp didn't. It's bloody stupid unless you're north supporters.

    Jeremy Finlayson looks like such an ammo-level footballer but is an absolute quality forward/ruck.

    Really happy for him that he got the trade he needed and is playing good football. Credit to him for being able to stay focused on the game. 

    Both Finlayson and Cameron as I recall were so disappointing in the GF loss to Richmond 2019.

    Both have done so. much better when playing for a club who knows footy and play with passion.

    GW$ is such a shameful waste of talent.

    Did any other teams boo Scully in ‘solidarity’ with us..?

    That’s the weird part.

    I reckon Adelaide are a chance to knock off the Pies and if we put Norf to the sword we should take our rightful seat on the throne. 

    Would love to be 1st and 2nd going into the Kings Birthday weekend.

    That was Melbourne supporters - what’s it got to do with St Kilda that North have been poorly managed for 10 years, so a kid left?

    Do we expect Brisbane supporters to boo Jackson because he left for Freo? It’s weird.

    That Grand Final was really the boulevard of broken dreams for a lot of those Giants players

    You said the answer, “ ignorance” by the cretins booing a very good young footballer.

    Haven’t heard the Port fans booing Howard, their former player, or Steele the Saints Captain and ex Giant or Butler, or Wood, or Hill etc.

    I don't condone the booing but slightly different circumstances to a regular trade.

    Horne-Francis essentially Tom Scullied North while they were on their knees and only saw out half of his rookie contract. Fair spit in the face of North fans who should rightfully be [censored] (I'm aware there are probable issues at North that contributed to him leaving).

    Why every other teams fans has joined the booing bandwagon is somewhat perplexing but probably relates to group-think/pack mentality.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      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.
