Geez WC beat GWS today. Draw looking ok if we could pinch this

Watching first Qtr of Port v Carlton game. Geez its hard to watch, the poor skills compared to yesterday's game.

Siren goes 1.1 us v 1.3 Carlton. That's all I will watch I think. Will flick to see the scores later on.

They won’t be much different

Gemma on the move. Word must've gotten back that people have been likening her to Charlie Bollard.

 

[Marmozet]

GEMMA HOUGHTON

Gemma's still got it. Best passage of play so far from Moloney/Houghton

 

[Coobk001]

Houghtons form is on a huge up turn the last couple games. Makes us look significantly better.

 

[RossFC]

That was special from Houghton. Strong contested mark and great goal.

Ports up 16-9 11 mins left in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Marmozet]

Amalie Borg just parted the seas beautifully

 

[Coobk001]

Scholz really needs a good teacher.

Knock that through girl. Don't try and mark.

 

[Marmozet]

Scholz huge mark

No front on contact to Gemma Houghton though

 

[Coobk001]

Front on contact to Houghton not paid.

Huge push on ODea not paid.

Far out

 

[EskimoPAFC]

That might have been the clearest in the back in AFL history

 

[Marmozet]

Ebony O’Dea actually got a free kick?!?!

 

[Marmozet]

Gemma Houghton is having some sort of game

 

[RossFC]

Houghton again big grab, and goal!

Ports up 23 to 11 14 seconds left in the 2nd quarter

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Who touched that kick by Saint? The ghost of Maradona?

Kade Simpson.

Looking at the table they put up earlier, have 4 of our first 5 games been against teams in the 8?

Richmond and North Melbourne away in quick succession too.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Gemma Houghton v Carlton

 

[Coobk001]

Really pleasing start.

Houghton BOG by a long way.
Brooksby is going to be one hell of a player. Borg having a good game. Germech has been good as well. O'Dea solid as always. Pope quiet but every touch has been a contest win. Goody, Moloney and Dowrick helping us move it.

Lots of good. Was a bit worrying at times when they got the ball on the outside and moving, but the pressure was good and the defence held up.

I really like Wendland. I think she just has it. Just needs to keep working and it'll flow for her.

Would like to see Saint get some form rolling. Had a couple nearly moments, but it's time for her to step up.

Yeah crazy start.

I say it all the time but there should have been divisions and we would be fighting for a div 2 title and promotion this year. Would give a bunch more purpose and excitement.

Agree. The gap between the established and new sides is so great, it is difficult to compete especially when you get them in quick succession.

Hammond drives me mad with the frees she gives away
