Game Day AFL Finals 2024 - Match discussion party thread

[Redline]

Not really sure what to think of Hinkley at the end.

In some ways who cares he won say what you like.

At the same time he's never going to be able to say he doesn't care about what the opposition say pre game.

 

[The Karma Bus]

Not really, hawks player talked the talk this week and tonight port walked the walk. Winners are grinners

You don't act like that in your opponents face after the game and in a loss like that. Classless bullshit.
But hey, that's the Port Adelaide way for so long.

As Lewis said, it's embarrassing for Hinkley.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Hard to tell. Could be cramp

He wasn't worried at all. Must be cramp.

 

[Moonwatcher]

The carry on suggests Port think they've just won their grand final

Sydney by 60

You got to enjoy winning a tight final.

 

[pjcrows]

That was just an old fashioned messy Semi Final. They often are. Port brought pressure early, Hawthorn didn't. In the end the Hawks probably pinch that more often than not, but Port are very good in close games.

 

[Scorpus]

You'd probably not want to carry on if you win thanks to a guy hitting the post instead of kicking what would have been the winning goal

 

[Magma]

plus surely the move now if for ginnivan to get a ticket to the sydney game

Mitchell's press conference is absolute wish Nicks would show half of this emotion and balls

 

[mr.sheen]

pretty weird for a 57 year old man who often falls back on mental health and kindness whenever he is feeling the heat from the media, to mouth off to a 21 year old who already has a premiership in the first three years of their career versus...well you know

overall credit to port for bringing the pressure though, hawks couldn't withstand it and forced into poor errors but thats a young team playing finals football for you. I feel sydney are a far better team and should overrun port quite easily (who have limped to the finish line here and you feel have used up their tickets); then again, sydney also seem to have limped into the finals. Can Heeney save them again?

What was he saying!

 

[pjcrows]

Say what you want, but imagine having a coach and leaders that defends their players to the hilt.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Sydney or Port should arrange a ticket for him

 

[aabp1978]

Keep bouncing back and forward here. Think because of the teams that are left Port could win it all…very much hope not because that isnt a world worth living in

 

[STrAng3C1oUdZ]

What was he saying!

Wasn't happy about Kenny, called him out for talking shit reporter went on and shut him down.

Also the way he is talking about not being good enough and getting better

He is a gun coach!

Yep, lots of cope in this thread right now

 

[Scorpus]

Mitchell is elite. Remember him having a go at Essendon for drug cheating when he was a player? Nothing gets past him

 

[Geoffa32]

I don't understand how he has so many allies, the bloke is a bitter little goblin.

Well liked ex Geelong player and Cos Cardone/David Koch are key players in the media.

You want a job in the JamTV/Crocmedia/C7 world don't say bad things about Ken.

 

[jackster83]

Their midfield lacks star power outside of Day who was a massive loss

Newcombe is pretty good, but agree the likes of Worpel and Ward are pretty ordinary. The latter was a pick 7 too.

 

[ams4crows]

We all got on?


Personally felt Hawthorn have been up for so long they were due a loss. Port always respond after a heavy loss.

Port Boys lift for their coach when he cops it.


$2.33, can't go past that.

Yes I got on, but more of a hopefully if I bet on them then they'll lose.

 

[Geoffa32]

Dixon back next week?

 

[Scorpus]

Newcombe is a grunt not a game winner. Didn't think he had much impact today at all

 

[Magma]

get him in behind or next to the port bench

 

[STrAng3C1oUdZ]

I tend to believe that playing groups take on a bit of the persona of their and he definitely has some mongrel in him and not scared to give it out.
