That was a great game to watch, Jordan had a great last qtr.

Cant help injures. I think most of the players wanted to go for different reason. Given how we ended last year a refresh was needed. I agree Paxy is at the tail end and should be used for specific supporting roles for the rest of the year as she doesn't have the run to compete with the younger girls anymore. Who was really missing today was Hanks, currently not having the same impact as the last few years. Normally very aggressive around the ball. Yes, Purcell is the biggest loss for the team and others aren't yet stepping up to take on her role. Reset for next week.

Watch it on delay as it was 9am Perth time. Brisbane ran harder . But gee, how did umpires allow the blatant holding and dragging off the ball all day of our players. Like in the second Hore left arm was being pulled behind her when she was 5 feet from the ball trying to pick it up. Plain as day, no free, We were constantly dragged away when they didn't have the ball or when we tried to get near it. Shocking umpiring. I don't know why they umpire the completely different to the men's with the same set of rules. If it wa a men's game we would have constant free's at almost every contested ground ball.

Well that was out of the blue... is Green in for the long haul or in current care taker mode.

This group of port players are final checkers....the type of footy they play doesn't stand up.

Best of luck to him. Wont get the opportunity he deserves at our club without an injury. He'll get a regular gig wherever he ends up.

Good effort in a terrible condition down there. What is a worry is their goals were from really bad mistakes in front of goal, from poor decisions and skill execution. But game one under pressure so I'll take it. With so few games its so important to win he early ones.

The type of big body mid we need.

Better, Does anyone else find the cameramen skills far poorer that the normal AFL games, its like they send the trainees to these games.

that's poor.

Not sure, maybe she asked to go?

how that not in the back on miffen

Well that was easy, time to shut down this ridiculous thread :)

Daisy got her first win... but with a young side they'll have trouble running out games against the more established clubs. but a win is a win for her.

Did the injury happen at work?

Hotmail! Once upon a time I had the hotmail address of [email protected]. then forgot the password sometime over the decades.

From what I read lots of zero's every week in the bank.

I agree, as much as people disliked Eddie, I bet he would have sat the hospital every day if Buckley was in the ICU and at his home with the family thereafter from a footy injury. She should be constantly talking to the players and find out what is happening in the club, not relying purely on what's being reported up. She doesn't need to act on everything, just know what going on.

But then we wouldn't have a premiership in 2021...

How come all the pies players that wipe out our players are their friends... they need better company!!

His challenge is attracting players to our club that fit within our salary cap. The majority recently have been depth players bought in as security. Whereas talent is really coming from he draft. He can only get those that out of contract or want to move. The Houston news, shows they are active in targeting players during the year to keep improving the main list, i.e. the 23 we put on the park each week. Any real we haven't been that active in since putting the team together up to 2021. With the move towards Houston ew can see they need more players to refresh our list to challenge again.

As Kosh once said, understanding is a three edged sword, their version, our version and the truth. Any small thing is being pumped as important and blown out of proportion. Trac is currently back with the boys from reports. This is not to say that there aren't issues. But issue take time to work through if they are to be done properly. We just need to ride it out. If the tigers have a great set of draft picks coming to them.

Yep, there have been lots of the years, where it has worked out in the long run..

Simply a journo trying to make links to this settled and get the top of the "news' on pile it. as it's a great for generating revenue in their media at the moment.

isn't the trip to Noosa old news? Sorted last week.
