P-man

Our skills have been the worst they’ve been all year.

Lolol 50 metres for that. [censored] this.

Harmes you can’t miss a 5 metre handball. You just can’t.

Legit looks like they have twice the amount of players out there.

Holy crap we got a HTB.

This is not the night I envisaged.

Just please get out T Mac. Utterly useless.

Apparently Hodge is spending retirement in a pie factory.

Yeah we haven’t shown up yet. Switch on ffs.

Dees by 5 goals.

I could get used to these short turnarounds. I’ve already started drinking while working. Because it’s game day. You have to drink on game day.

Happy with those ins. The three talls will be an interesting watch. I’d pretty much always play Bennell if fit as he has too much class to overlook, but have to place faith in Burgo and co on how he gets managed. Very happy to see Sparrow get a crack. Really need to win this one. It’s time to make a statement about how serious we are this year.

No doubt, but just the thought of the Chad winning Charlie amuses me.

Well [censored] me that’s the last time I read the Facebook comments for a while. Numerous calls to drop Oscar. For T Mac. Who apparently should be moved back to defence. So essentially robbing both Peter and Paul, then kicking Peter in the nuts. And another bright spark chiming in with: “Weideman the ?,,, won’t be getting any cheap goes in the goal square like 2 weeks ago... hasn’t done nothing again” It’s like asking Cletus from the Simpsons what he thinks team selection should be.

Did lol at Chad Wingard.

We are placing a ridiculous amount of responsibility on players if that action is worth a two match ban. Jetta clearly leads with his head. It’s poor technique on his part. If you reversed the jumpers and told me hand to heart you’d be happy with a two match ban for that, then I really have no words.

How true this is. I’m continually struck by how bog ordinary the league is these days. Compare league leaders Port to a Hawthorn, Geelong or St Kilda in their heyday. No comparison. Top 8 is well within the reach this year for this reason alone.

McStay getting two weeks for the bump on Jetta is a joke tbh. I’d be filthy if it was a Melbourne player What exactly is McStay meant to do im that situation when Jetta puts his head down and charges into him? Jump out of the way? Even Goodwin in the presser acknowledged that players need to be better at turning their body before contact. It really seems like the match review process and basic common sense are an ill fit.

Yep, holding the man isn’t ruled anywhere near enough. Brisbane clearly brought an aggressive mentality but they overstepped and got away with a lot of garbage on the weekend. If the umpires are going to let this go then we will have to consider the old ‘if you can’t beat em join em’ approach.

Surely Gus has run out of lives. Almost anyone would be an upgrade atm. Wouldn’t mind seeing Sparrow get a go

It was a hot game in the wet tonight. It looked every bit like two top 8 sides going toe to toe. We were our own worst enemy in terms of fluffing chances, but if we continue to bring that level every week we can and should put our name in the hat at the end of the year.

And should’ve had several more score involvements had we kicked straight. He also noticeably went to another level in the second half. Had we won he would’ve been pivotal.

We have no toes left. That’s how many times we have shot ourselves in the foot tonight.

Jonesy ♥️

Jackson has presented superbly all night. Loved his game.
