It’s not. I just wanted to tag you in the post so you see it 😂

 

I am genuinely interested to know what you think Port will do for the remainder of the H&A season to make sure they hit peak form in September. 
I feel like they’ve gone too hard too early and tinkering now is very risky. 

No idea to be honest.

But they appear to have taken a completely different approach.

There's no way they wouldn't have some loading program in place.

But they seemed to not drop off in their intensity till the blues game they just lost. Which is weeks later than when we started our loading phase. 

I'm guessing the fact they managed seven players in this game isapart of their strategy to manage load, fatgue, rest individual programs etc.

Bur that is risky, because clubs are  loath to make more that 2-3 changes (except for bevo) because sytems are so important.

Seven changes is the reason the blues were favourite against a team going for its 14th straight win.

They can afford a loss and that was obviously a risk they were happy to take.

The results have suited us perfectly so far.

Now they have to bring everyone back because they can’t afford this limp display against the Pies. 
A strange time to do this. 
 

It feels to me like Hinkley is on a hiding to nothing. He basically has to win the flag or he’s gone. They went so hard early because another so so start to the season and he’d get sacked. I wonder how much his fear of sacking is impacting their plan for the season.

Now we need Essendon and Geelong to draw and Geelong to sustain 7-10 season ending injuries. 
Easy. 

Essendon Lol

So the brother gifts the game to his brother, total capitulation by the Bombers.

Welcome to the cattery Essendon.

32-0  

Geelong's bigger bodies are absolute kryptonite for Essendon's smaller mids. It looks like men vs boys.

Seeing some pretty bad comments on social media regarding Sam Weideman. 

Was reading a stat that he hasn't kicked a goal in 6 week..

How on earth does that happen for a key forward?

It’s times like this you rely on your senior players like Stringer

lol

It’s a real shame there’s not more than 300 Essendon supporters at the ground watching this. 

Essendrug must have driven to the wrong ground,

They should be forced to keep their TVs on.

The whinged on SEN about not being able to go and the game was there. I bet all those same nonces are bloody glad they weren’t there.

The best thing about the Cats pumping the Bombers is that their percentage doesn’t count but the loss of Essendon’s does. 

Hate Geelong but seeing at they are going to win this anyways i hope they beat Essendon by 100+ points

Cannibal Corpse had an album called Tomb Of The Mutilated and that is what we are seeing.

Really tough draw in the next month for Port, could see a huge drop off

Or Zach Midgett

lol. I forgot that the coaches are brothers. 

I’ll just imagine that when they’re showing Brad’s sad mug that’s it’s Chris and then I’ll be happy.

Particularly because the bombers have eagles and north coming up so any percentage loss now is good.
