Red But Mostly Blue

Goody says ports game was exactly what we expected… … yet we did nothing to plan for it or counteract it? Or tag butters after his millionth possession. Goody is so incredibly annoying at these pressers sometimes.

Aside from half a quarter, we were a very poor, uninspiring team outclassed by a better team. We came in soft beating up on bad teams and tonight were shown up by a contender. Another loss to a team in the 8. Not a good look. Ah well we’ll always have 2021 😔

Sucked in Powell pepper you grub

Funny how the umps keep finding the high tackles on port players.

Good, big goal from Tommy! Made possible by Trac magic. Let’s get another one!!

I hate rookie [censored] like that, we were away! I want that goal back from YOU, Roo.

Rubbish free kick got what it deserved

As the newly minted 4th quarter specialists I’m looking forward to us continuing our good work from q3 and ignoring that late goal.

I specifically asked for NO CHEAP GOALS TO PORT!! One thing. I asked for one thing!!!

Reported for that!!!???? What for??

NO CHEAP GOALS TO PORT PLS

lol Lycett finally got pinged for that [censored]

How was that pass!!!??!

BANG BANG BANG BANG!!!! ‼️

KOZZIEEEE! HUGE THAT HAS GOT TO BE A LIFT FOR THE TEAM. Let’s get it!

Bummer. We’ve stepped it up so just have to keep at it and don’t give them any cheap goals!!

Couple of clearances recently, makes a difference hey?

Can we build some momentum and belief? Can we!!!???

Needed that. Challenge: can we kick a few in a row? Port have had a quick answer every time

Say what you want against Powell pepper at least he shows mongrel. We could do with some of that.

Richo is a real wet rag.

They won’t. Goody will just that’s not us after the game, we’ll belt the lower teams and fold against hungry oppo like tonight. Rinse and repeat.

We’re just flat track bullies it seems. Yet another team cranks up the pressure and we fall to bits.

I mentioned I was worried about us going in to this game soft vs port having won games against better opposition. And here we are, playing exactly like a team who hasn’t really been tested. False confidence. 3 quarters to go but our only goal has been from a 50m penalty. Not inspiring.

I hear you. But from that batch, we have both beaten North and WC. So that evens out. But they have beaten the Bombers (who smashed us) and the Saints who were travelling very well at that point (a narrow loss to the Pies and a win over the blues in the preceding two games). A sneaky win or not, a win is a win, and Port won all of those games. As I said, I believe we win, and we should win, but I hope we don't fly in on a false sense of confidence much like last year, which cost us dearly. If we treat Port with respect tonight, keep the pressure up and everyone is accountable, we win well and keep the season humming along :-)
