Which high school aged intern did they get to do the voice over for this? Sounds like the Krusty Burger employee from the Simpsons.

I guess since we don't have Keith Thomas supplying it during family day, Robbie can have this one.

Would have been 8 if dopey Ladhams, Marshall and co actually was on the line shepherding. Charlie had run off to the bench after passing the ball to Robbie.


None of our guys inside the goal square looking to help the ball thru. We let Henry sit there by himself.





On line and about 1 foot short of perfection. A bloody under 10 error by our forwards.

Wasn't sure if this is Gray's player thread or not but I guess I can post it here!

The clutch king: Match-winning Robbie strikes again

A last-minute behind from Robbie Gray propelled Port Adelaide to victory over the Saints in round seven, but it's not the first time he's saved the day

While kicking five goals in a quarter against Adelaide and four in a (3rd) quarter against Fremantle (in an away Semi Final in 2014) in come-from-behind wins are noteworthy, it's his goal kicking in close matches that sets Gray apart.

Here's a look at four memorable goals across his 259-game career that have lifted Port Adelaide to victory.

Round seven, 2020 v Carlton
Round 19, 2017 v St Kilda
Round four, 2021 v Richmond
Round 23, 2021 v Western Bulldogs

Edit
Rd 1 2914 v Carlton Port won 18.12 v 12.15, but Port were down by a goal at 3/4 time and his two goals early in the last quarter put Port in front.

15 possessions, 2.2 goals (a third of our score), 4 marks, 8 score involvements and the winning score as a pure small forward on a day where conditions were a ****ing shambles. Write him off at your own peril while he wins us another game (although sadly a loss might have been better for the club).

Given he's slowed down I'd say the conditions were perfect for him. A dry day where his opponent can more easily run off him or close on him is where he's no longer as good.

Like against Carlton? No rain, 17 degrees.

• 13 disposals, 3.1 goals, 6 score involvements, 3 marks (2 inside 50) and 3 tackles.

In 3.5 games he has kicked 6 goals at an average of 1.7 which is equal top with Todd.. I'm not sure how many of those games he played fully fit either.

I acknowledge he is slowing down. Yes as you get older you have to play injured more often, or simply miss more matches injured. However Marshall et. al. are not the only ones who benefit from playing in a more open, structured forward line. It helps Robbie to have time and space to work in instead of playing in a cluster**** of a forward line where the best option for the last couple of seasons is to rove at the ants nest under Dixon's feet.

 

[Powerade 08]

Looking back, its another game where he probably should have got the 10 votes. Its going to be very hard to kick a goal without him next year.

They can only dream of what might have been.

Given they won 4 premierships to 0 over the course of his amazing career, I'm not sure it would be Geelong dreaming of what might have been

Imagine how many more they would have won!

Gray & Ablett Jnr. would've been ridiculous together at least another two flags.. now never mention it again.

talking with Tom Mitchell, about when he was down and out in 2019 - his third year in the system and playing poorly in the VFL, thought about quitting, and he stayed up to 3am or 4 am watching highlights of Robbie Gray

Not seeing Robbie in a granny will haunt me to my grave, wonder if Kenny ever thinks about these sorts of things
