Great quarter dees! Would have loved Jeffy to put a nail in but will always take it. Finish strong!

Oh Jayden so much courage

Definitely a good effort, plenty to be positive about, but a lot of glaring weaknesses. Keep having a crack and try to play smart.

Free kick, free kick, free kick

Good old Yeats

Yeah you're probably right. The loss hurts, a lot. Yes we probably haven't taken the next step yet but there's no gimme games anymore. Must look forward

I'd hate to say it and you never want to pin someone down for a loss, but there's something to this. Bernie is not quick, too cute and just not as much of a piercing kick anymore. What he offers or is meant to offer is the experienced head (currently down back). These were moments that needed that experience, bang it down the line with that trusty roosting kick, out it at very least into space in forward 50 instead of blazing down their throat. For an experienced head he did not seem too sharp today. Not the only one of course but the game need him to show it.

We're a frustrated bunch here I agree we've improved slightly when favoured but we're gonna need to do better going forward. No questions about it

Ah yes I've heard many a tale about the 1987 season (Was 2 at the time). Lets repeat the history and start the revolution!

Cheers for that! Good to hear some more of those stories

I would love to see Weideman get a guernsey this week after his goals for Casey. Having said that we must bring Oliver back in and have him play out the year surely.

I think Grimes will be moved on but Trenners I'm feeling will get another year to have a crack. We've put a lot of time and resources into him and I feel in this situation you just have to give him as much time as possible to prove himself.

Saw this new interview with Ben Kennedy talking about his experiences renting with ex-teammate Adam Oxley from Collingwood. Thought I'd share for a bit of a laugh! “In this episode we chat with roommates and ex-team mates Adam Oxley and Ben Kennedy. This blossoming bro-mance is typical of any 2 boys renting in their 20’s and we talked to them about being drafted, living together, their dating lives and playing football against each other.” http://blog.realestateview.com.au/2016/07/adam-oxley-ben-kennedy-renter-collingwood-fc-melbourne-fc/

Has some great pace. Will keep Colin Garland out of a job

Sometimes they got it in quick but sometimes we were just flat out of position. If you're going to play a zone you really need to be switched on

It's a good question. I would say internally. At this point in the season I just don't know if we'd gain much shaming them publically. Port have a list that really shouldn't be missing finals and therefore demand that standard.

I'd like a stat of how many games we've won in this jumper.

Cute comeback while it lasted

It's a shame, really thought we were past these days of going 40 odd minutes without a goal..

Won the inside 50s that quarter as well. I found on a few occasions the structure wasn't right up front and we had few less than we needed. Need to start running again

I hope I'm not too late but is it still possible to volunteer at the offices?

I agree, everything else wasn't too bad but in regards to his 'bit' on Watts where he said he should have said he'd kick 5 or 6 I have an even better idea. He shouldn't have been there in the first place. Never again do I want to see Jack Watts on a show like this before a game, it was painful. Idiots like Hughes and co asking HIM those things is exactly what you don't want to see when you're hoping he can find his feet. Just my thoughts

This man deserves his credit! Battling OP and other injuries for years now he's finally had a clear run at it and we can see what he can do. Still has a pretty booming kick and is winning heaps of it out of the middle. Keep it up Brent!

So yeah I'd also like to know about his Brisbane situation. From what I've read this was clearly his best season averaging 19 possesions a game off half back. Was he offered a new deal? Did they just not have room for him? (understandable, they have Drummond who does a similar role very well). No biggie just interesting to know why teams let certain players go sometimes. Can't wait to see him don the red and blue!

Love watching this kid play! He just moves so well
