Loving that two former crows players are making it difficult for them. Delicious!

socceroos are arse
glad I was in Brazil to witness tim Cahill do his thing. We suck these days

Rozee is such a heartless captain. The worst choice I think Port has ever made. The guy has yet to reach anywhere close to the potential he demonstrates and still downhill skiis.

As for the game, Port mids arent defending. Thats why Geelong are skating through the defence. If there is one consistency Port have had throughout Hinkleys coaching career is that his mids downhill ski more than they defend. More than any side.

Probably won’t be long before JHF becomes captain.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

They trying to hold JHF back each qtr to come in and impact or is he not fit.

It's a strange one.

Surely not fit if starting on the bench for the 1st 7 minutes of both quarters.

 

[BRL121]

Boak still has it, could easily play on again next season

He looked cooked a couple of years ago, but I don't remember him ever being as fast as he is tonight.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Been some beauty's from Geelong.

There was one out of defence where they intercepted and broke away and kicked a long, perfectly weighted kick to the wing

Wingman ran onto it, had an opponent on his tail but because he didn't have to break stride could play on.

Elite burst football.

I can hardly remember a Crow doing a kick like that. Tex 2015 elimination final probably.

 

[pjcrows]

At the moment Cats are playing September football. Port are playing July football.

That last goal was pretty important, and the first goal of the 3rd will be even more important.

Port will get a burst - it's a matter of what the margin is they're trailing by.

Been a real feature of their game tonight

 

[spenze]

We have standards for behaviour but not for football playing

Oh hell, isn't that the truth, moral compass of the league...

Reckon that’s kern trying to be clever.
If he gets off the chain in the second half port will win.
Hard to see him not leading them to a flag at some stage.

Port have a void of selfless leaders at the moment. They are all wannabe stars who struggle to do the team things. My pick would be Drew. Seems to be the only guy on the team who does everything and is easily there hardest working midfielder.

Hinge to Fog against Essendon at Marvel.

 

[FR0GGY]

Scott may be a campaigner but he’s a hell of a coach.

or coaching.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

oh my god
I didn’t realise how good Stengle’s field kicking was.

Imagine having that Stengle bloke... Charlie Cameron too... With Izak.

 

[latinoheat]

Can see the pear coming back in the second half

Nah, JHF has captain written all over him.

 

[relapse]

He definitely is still playing well enough to be aiming for 400 games

 

[Samcro24]

or coaching.

Or recruiting

 

[jackster83]

Or recruiting

Or list management.

 

[Tex Danger]

Nah, JHF has captain written all over him.

For sure
Just looks a genuine footy leader. A real come with me boys type

A bit in the style of Tex as captain or a Wayne Carey

 

[FR0GGY]

Or recruiting

Or merchandise

 

[Samcro24]

Or merchandise

We could play this game all night

Kern or JHF?

Sucks that Port were able to get him but good that there are a few SA guys around the league near the pointy end of the quality pyramid (JHF, Rankine, Dawson, Will Day)
