Apologies if this has already been discussed at length, I haven't had a chance to read through this thread, but I just saw Rivers got a fine for a sling tackle.  Am I the only one (apart from Tom McDonald) who thought Rozee threw himself on the deck trying to milk the free?

He absolutely milked that free. There was no 2nd action to his tackle. His technique was flawless as far as I can see.

Absolute BS. No arms pinned and Rozzee played a dead fish to draw a free. Madness. Should appeal.  Opposition player did zero to protect himself and had both arms free. What was rivers to do?

Salo wearing god only knows what 😅

Looks like someone walked in off the street to photo bomb.

 

Watched a part of the replay again.

My hat is off to all those who went to this game.

Seriously, those Port fans are feral and it's a committed supporter who braves that.

I think @WalkingCivilWar mentioned someone talking about being in the trenches. 

I can genuinely see why.

To use an old Soprano line..." Did someone leave a cage open at turtleback zoo?"

Looks like one of those silk robes boxers come out wearing.

Also, why is Howesie pulling that face?

It looks as though Blake is holding one in and needs to go to the toilet. 💩💩💩

This hasn't been widely reported, but a large group of Port Adelaide players and coaching staff took the time to visit a local orphanage on Easter Sunday.

"I feel really sad for them.  They looked so lost with no hope for the future" said Jack, a five year old resident.

This ain’t cool. Plenty of stuff we can joke about, but this isn’t it.

Wrong thread.

Billings is worth persevering with. He’s coming off two years plagued with injury-setbacks, and is finding his feet at a new club. He was never going to play his best footy in the first few weeks. 
 

(Oh and, my phone seems pretty determined to spell his name as “Billing’s”, so I can understand the errors)

At this point, I think he is worth persisting with. If he keeps missing tackles in subsequent games then the conversation changes.

He also said he reckons most other clubs would envy our culture. He’s about the only one who’s backed us this whole time, so you know he’s not just jumping onboard now that things are on the up. 

Yeah even last year he was still backing us in

This win really stacks up the more you think about it.

I get that statistically we perhaps shouldn’t have won, but stats don’t account for the last quarter’s tenacity, determination and nailing the clutch moments that we did.

I would be surprised if Port lose more than 2 games at AO this year.

  • 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.

    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?
