Norm Smith's Curse

I still cant believe Dean Kent - probably the most exciting prospect pre season didnt get a run today when so many did that contributed zero.

Is he a star though? Clearly he cant be bothered and I wonder whether he just had a good year and got ahead of himself. Rumours from his management he has wanted out for two years.

We get Tom Mc back into the back but who else is going to stand up there? Move Grimes back there as the rebounder? Get Terlich in the side? Dean Kent? Magner? Jetta? Davey?

Jack Watts - 2 kicks for the day as spare man. I need an explanation for that.

The coach is ultimately responsible for lackof fitness, application and structure. We had none of those today.

'we're traking well' 'key fitness indicators are up' 'the one percenters are on the up' 'Im not into fairy tales' 'the third youngest list - that is where we are at'

mate ive been paying my memberships religiously since before then - this is a side that in 2000 to 2004 was a major force in the AFL - respected, well structured, a list of talent that demanded respect. Now we are clearly making up the numbers slowly pettering out to death. Its clear the players are ok with this fact, judging by their heartless efforts once again. Well im not happy with this and I think the supporters have every right to boo players that put that kind of crap up.

the only think demonic about us was our performance...

Port had enough trouble attracting a coach - good luck getting anyone interested now.

Five mates are wavering supporters. They were lost yeasr ago to be honest. James McDonald's sacking did it for them. One had followed the demons since 1954

After years of ribbing Im going to cop this on Tuesday

Something is very wrong. The players just couldnt be bothered. It was obvious. All i wanted was a bit of improvement with structures, spread, some signs of things settling down.

Get the club some good peptides - its our only hope.

Im gonna be honest - i think he's gawn!

I was just on SEN!

He is a champion

So we clearly are making up the numbers - the players obviously think so.

Microwave and membership time - where is that bag of horse crap?

Sack everybody! Even sack VIney, Toumpas and Hogan so they can get to a side that tries...

I know two blokes that play at the same gold course as Watts. The suggestion was that heart isnt in it

there were a few positives. I didnt actually go to the game for one... I can safely say that Dean Kent, Terlich, Jetta and a few others will make the side next week. Dawes will be wondering why he didnt choose the dogs.

We were worse than most of last year.

Viney and Matt Jones (ex box hill) in our top 6

Let viney play alone. We'd be just as good.
