Both having quiet nights. Blakey.  Heeney. Gulden.  Too much run for port.  

If Grundy & Jordan get premierships medals they will definitely be laughing

I'd be rapt for JJ to be in another gf & actually be on the ground. But thinking ahead it would blow my mind if he became a 2 time premiership player

I reckon he just got held himself at the throw in but they let it go because of this.

L watch Grundy in the CBs... he only has eyes for his opponent and almost always runs over to where he is to place a block.  That's his first movement 90% of the time.

That's fine if he gets back to the ball and touches it (according to the guidelines and Razor Ray).

When he doesn't he needs to be called for blocking the opponent's run at the drop but rarely is.

They called him a few times in the first quarter and then put the whistle away after.

You could see Reg complaining as he couldn't believe someone was finally picking him up on this.

He's gotten away with it far too often, especially the first half of the season before some umps started to crack down a tad more.

Grundy 7 touches 5 clangers

Jordon 7 touches 2 clangers. although keeping Butters a bit quiet

Keep trolling away. 

How is that trolling? I don't think @Demonsone was talking about their performance in this game.

Its a fact that both wanted to leave the Dees to play in another teams best 22. They did and now they're both about to play in a premiership and have played their roles to get there... kudos to both of them.

Port have kicked 2.3 in each quarter

If they do it in the last Q it’ll be the first time in AFL history 

*probably, haven’t checked

Luke Parker’s 5 th grand final. Time the AFL took away the NSW academies or at least out of the first round. 
 

It’s BS how much talent they get access to. 

I don't believe it is related to the academy. They have built a culture of relentless competitiveness. Have not seen a contest or a chase they haven’t committed to. Have seen Port, similar to last week, just not quite go hard enough when they've needed to. That is the difference between the Syd, Haw, Coll cultures and that of Port and us (amongst others).

Do I really have to explain? The same people saying the same thing for 9 months to provoke a response

Im beginning to doubt the poster is even a Demons fan. 

We know the story, Grundy didn’t work so we sent him packing, Jordon not best 22 so he left, fair enough 

Can we move on? or say the same stuff every week

So you think if you removed Heeney, Mills, Blakey and Gulden from their team they’d be in the same position?

They have a great attitude but They were gifted the above players that they would never have drafted.

Sorry, I didn't realize there was a backstory to that particular poster actually trolling. My apologies

It seems Port are playing like Melbourne- kick it long into the forward line and hope somebody marks it. Except they don’t.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
