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. 

[Ethan Tremblay 28,547]

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. 

[Mel Bourne 3,880]

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

Boak has been great. I hope Port win this game

The old scoop off the ground and not one of the chanel 7 nuffies said a thing haha

[YearOfTheDees 3,118]

A good footballer once said all duck or no dinner, I think he was talking about St Kilda.

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.

[layzie 29,777]

At the end of the day who cares.

[layzie 29,777]

It's a real pressure cooker 

[layzie 29,777]

That's game Hendrix.

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.

Very very average last 10 minutes by the aints.

Good win for Port

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

19 point win and we are top of the ladder going into Sunday. Saints will not finish top four.

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.

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.

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.
