If Carlton want it. It’s there for the taking.

Selfish footy Langdon.

We desperately need a forward. Instead we chasing a second ruck we don’t need. Wasting money. It’s pathetic. This game is terrible. We are just better than a sh*t team in Carlton. It’s not good to watch.

Carlton didn’t put it on the scoreboard either.

We need a capable forward. Would’ve thought it was a more pressing issue than Grundy last trade period. McKay is also probably gettable. Not for us.

As bad as we played. We still would’ve won if the umpires didn’t step in. Was ridiculous. Not saying we played great but a win would’ve been a win.

That’s true. We are wasting a good list.

I wouldn’t bother watching it. For large portions of the match we didn’t play well. Port didn’t kick straight so they kept us in it till half time. After that we clawed back, and just before three quarter time the umpires stepped in. Rest is history.

We give it a red hot crack in the last half

Few bad errors tonight. But clearly a genuine A grade star in the making. Impact player

Barring the umpires tonight, we not only beat a strong Port at home, but we did so only playing good in spurts - where we kicked multiple goals from behind in wet conditions. Remarkable effort from our lads.

We have been struggling for 4-5 weeks anyway. If it wasn’t wet we’d see an thumping.

Fritsch out there playing Port by himself

Port should be 8-9 goals up

But he has a dip.

Look, I think it’s expected. We need a midfield coach.

Petracca needed to start in the middle. Oliver is being blanketed and their better mids running rampant.

Amiss is a jet. Thoroughly impressed by that young lad. I hope he’s a target for us. Can play mid as well. Will be a top 5 player in that draft. I do understand the frustration of Freo supporters in respect to JVR, as he is a young KPF, looks to be exactly what Freo needed. Now their capped out with Jackson who is essentially Grundy to us - surplus to needs, but they used picks too.

At this point, Petty is probably the better - and safer - option. And he’s on our list. No guarantees with the ACL, will take a couple years to come good regardless, teams will be into MG and still pay overs. Not worth it for us. We have Brown and Tmac still contracted next year.

Richmond are ordinary and were massively aided by one sided umpiring. That aside, it’s hard to see us beating the well coached sides this year. I do think we’ve had the best list in the league the past few years, but that alone isn’t enough. Sides like Collingwood, who are well coached, daring and agile, will always have our number. We are a one trick pony, we lack the versatility to switch it up. We made hard work of a faded veteran tonight. Wasting our window. Thank Christ we got Freos picks as they are deadset hopeless.

Good to see wiser heads somewhere in the coaches box prevail and shift Gus in the middle. Correlated with goals.

Most important signing in a long time. Young kid appears to have it all. Opposition sides would be going a million plus a year. So good on him if he does stick with us.

When up and running Harmes is an impact player for us. We needed him at his best last week. We need him at his best going forward. Suspect it’s why he’s been relegated. He either displays his class in the VFL and comes back in and has an impact, or he stays in the VFL. I’m glad he shown his class. Our midfield needs him badly. Harmes up and running is our 3rd best mid.

Would like to see some hungry VFL players get a turn.

Oliver and Petracca need to lift.
