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. 

 

That kick from Houston might be the best of his career

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.

 

Need a comment from Tredrea, what a boof head

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

North weren't even playing tonight!

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.

  • 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?
