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

What a Dull PF…

Well, obviously not playing that well then 

[layzie 34,745]

Swans are definitely my favourite style to watch 

[Sir Windsor 219]

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 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

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

[dees189227 12,692]

So we'd be happy with a swans/lions gf yeah?

[Lexinator 1,991]

This Port team is one of the most ordinary teams to finish 2nd.

[Dingo 1,235]

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

[layzie 34,745]

Come on Swans crush them 

[BoBo 3,020]

Has Aliir Aliir lost a single contest in this game?
