It seems like coach and players didn't respect Port much at all.

Wasn't just Stanley that needed to extract a few digits in the first 2/3rds of the game.......

Scott and the boys need to watch that game in its entirety. Several times. Think there was an expectation that just turning up would win it.

Playing their hearts out in the latter part of the game that is.....

Did Jezza just twinge his groin?

Maybe they were thinking they didn't have to play footy to win this game....

He said they were out to ruin Hawkin's night, and he's played a reasonable game so far on Tommy.

So much effort is being expended just to try and stay in touch.

And Port reply with embarrassing ease.

Clark, Hawkins good then. Duncan misses 😡

Good grief. Ollie doesn't even scare the goals.

That's the sum of it.

Didn't BT say it'll take our biggest comeback ever on this ground to win from here?

Watching now. Looks like an AFL side against a high school team. Port are really hungry for this contest.

Wasn't that the same question last week?

Little opposition to make life hard for them.

Had to listen to the first quarter on radio So many Cat names not called......seems very few involved, or switched on, whereas Port have come to play. Hopefully Scott wakes them up at quarter time.

What are the sanctions, if any, the AFL can impose if clubs don't satisfy reporting requirements?

I don't gamble, and I don't know what Supercoach even is, but I'm still glad the AFL saw fit for the clubs to be honest with their supporters. The report terminology is simple - concussion, knee, ankle etc - and no detail is given beyond those terms. I don't see these classifications as being...

What does the result say about the Hawks and Dogs??

They're going to at least demand a haircut I reckon.

If so, why do it against Melbourne specifically? That would imply he sees them as one of the most dangerous threats come finals. Are they? He did appear passive, and I wonder if it was done deliberately to assess the players somehow, or is that short-changing Melbourne?? Maybe it was nothing...

Yep, it's natural to see commentary on both. A footy club will, at any time, see players slowly easing out the door as others ease in. Sometimes you can focus moreso on who's going than who's arriving, and sometimes vice versa, but hopefully the conversation finds a balance. A few of our old...

Seen by a few of us for a while now.

One of his worst for a good while at least. His trajectory of late hasn't been flash imo.

Needs to be looked at....falling away quickly imo.

This. We shouldn't review this as 'how close we were' but 'how lucky we were to be so close'. We were poor. Very poor. The Dees doubled their score in the last quarter. Much to consider.

I'm sure some of the stat nerds will give us some 'ifs' and 'buts' and there'll be those who continue to argue the concept of 'effort', but tonight was as blunt a counterargument as I've seen for a while.

No A goal then still saw us lose. The footy we dished up tonight, by all but a couple of players, has been abysmal. It's on the team. Very few can hold their heads up. The AFL world will be happy tonight. That we folded so easily will heighten their joy.

No-one. We've been as inept as can be tonight.....embarrassingly so. We got outdone by a better team who wanted the ball more.
