Jaded No More

It would indeed be a disgrace to lose this game. But we lost to Adelaide and Collingwood last year.

Sure. But we play Gold Coast so…

West Coast skills keeping them in this. They are killing them by foot. Gold Coast wasting a million possessions.

Danger game next week. We don’t like playing bad teams.

When they shut down Gold Coast I’m calling dibs on Touk Miller.

Nothing will make me happier than West Coast finishing bottom 4… unless Geelong do (which won’t happen sadly)

West Coast will run out of petrol. They look incredibly unfit.

He’s elite at the buffet stats, that’s for sure.

Gold Coast. Oh dear.

Kennedy gives away a free. Swears. No 50. Kennedy gets out marked and encroaches on the mark. No 50. Umpiring going beautifully as per usual.

Gold Coast will never ever have a better opportunity to win interstate than tonight.

At least this has been a good round with evenly matched sides going up against each other. Essendon aside, highest winning margin is ours at 26 points so far.

Yeah Freo could easily be 4-0 with their draw.

What a great finish. 0 stars for skills. 10 stars for suspense this game.

We were a terrible team. Freo have a good list. They are just weak and cannot kick straight. I barely care and I’m annoyed!

Supporting Freo must be the actual worst. Such a waste of talent.

This will be a demolition, especially if Freo continue to kick straight. Adelaide are woeful.

They will battle it out with Norf and Hawks for the spoon.

Watching Adelaide and Freo attempting to kick footballs…

I know round one is always rusty with skills especially when the weather is hot or humid, but my god skills so far this round have been subpar. We stand out significantly with our skills.

Hawks will finish the round top 4 possibly… isn’t that a laugh 😂

0 stars this game. Would not recommend.

Small forwards are, by nature, inconsistent. They are opportunistic players and sometimes they get no opportunities to impact the scoreboard. This is what makes Spargo and Kosi such good small forwards. Because whether they are kicking goals or not, they are impacting the scoreboard with their pressure off the ball or their kicking skills going inside 50. They don’t need to hit the scoreboard themselves to help the team, which means they are never liabilities, even if they have low stats. This is an incredibly rare trait for small forwards. Compare Kosi to Weightman. Both had identical stats. 5 disposals and 1 goal. But I know who I’m taking.

His head offends me. Have hated him ever since he said we were soft. To be fair to Port they were running on fumes with the amount of injuries they had. I think the conditions suited Brisbane better, plus home crowd, and to me they were very disappointing. Poor skills. Looked lethargic for a good portion of the game. I know Zorko was injured but their midfield looked slow. I wasn’t blown away, and this is from someone who thought the Lions would be our biggest threat this year. Port are Port. They do a lot and then they fall apart like a cheap suit in finals. See also Geelong.

Fun game to watch tho. Good pressure now from both teams and a tight contest.
