2016 Non-Crows AFL Discussion - Cont. in Part 2 (link in OP)

[GreyCrow]

His explanation defies logic, If he just said the umpire couldn't see the fake handball and didn't think he had prior I would be fine with it. But this such a bullshit excuse. Nat asks why it's not prior and he just moves on to "making a genuine attempt" before he's even tackled.

I also heard something on 5aa. They played a grab of Mark Evans and he praised the umpire '' for knowing the stage of the game'' . Pardon? So a free is paid or not paid according to the time of the game and not if a free was there?

Odd

He raised the national profile of Port due to his celebrity and his business and financial acumen made them a strong financial club while at the same time Hinkley made them a force on the field. For a while the stars aligned. But he has lost perspective. Winning the premiership was never a realistic goal when he took office. His goal was getting the best fan engagement possible and boosting Ports national profile. But when they seemingly thought they reached the level of national identity they were ever going to achieve backed by ever increasing membership, instead of focusing on the football department and exploring whether its operating properly they further took the eye off the ball and went globe trotting. Now Port are struggling, Kochie has the nerve to publicly blame his players. Sorry Kochie this is the end result of a negligent president.

What BS…so the stage of the game was vastly different 30 seconds earlier (which I reckon was also a free but wtf is consistency )

Oh, now I understand, Hawks were behind at that point (and also with the soft holding free, Lynch's mark, Tex watching the ball and called the exact opposite)…but once the Hawks were in front……….whoa, we gotta understand the stage of the game boys VFL

 

[TheLeftFist8]

Bass quickly on the front foot…blaming the mids and not his defenders or set-up behind the ball!

 

[GreyCrow]

Their whole team is half back flankers

Some are just flankers

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I think 97. Hurts more!

Imagine if Libba junior thought he had kicked the winning goal.

And Mark Evans previous employment was?

Wow Bass, very clear what you think about Kochie's input

Seems like quite the blame game going on down there

The bare facts are that for the AFC to win the premiership we will need to be at least a 5 goal better side than any opposition we face at the MCG on GF day…tough ask in a corrupt, inequitable competition…but I'm proud we are giving it a red hot crack since 2015.

2 games for elbowing a prone player in the back of their head? piss off

Bass says it's not about talent but how we execute under pressure

So maybe you need some players talented enough to do that??

Or well-coached enough??

Your choice

Skill = Technique + Pressure

 

[Bay62]

What did he say?

They asked him what he thought of it

He avoided it entirely and said Koch had done a good job with KT turning the club around

Clearly avoided it and did not want to be seen giving his real opinion

Wouldnt have a job tomorrow if he had.

Rowie asked Bassett whether the melee got Geelong to pull their finger out and get fired up.
Bassett's response was that actually scores were pretty unchanged for the first 15 minutes of that quarter so really didn't change any momentum Port had.
Rowie gobsmacked.

That was a pretty unimpressive interview by bass

They are in real strife

I only listened to the interview but has Rowie been praising the interview saying how he answered all the hard questions?

Bassett is typically one to say what he thinks but obviously isn't at the moment. You can't blame him, he's new in his role and doesn't want to ruffle feathers.

 

[Bay62]

Agreed

They are talking in circles. Everything is just about the players not executing but look they can do it for a little while so we just have to do it for longer

As I've said previously, describing the problem is not the same as diagnosing the problem

 

[Bay62]

Wouldnt have a job tomorrow if he had.

Yes. Clearly they are not happy with it

Good work Kochie, you're making a real difference

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Patience Freddy... climb the ladder

It'll hurt him to have to hold back.

A joke really. But what would we expect from the AFL?
