The Lions looming large. Regardless of how they go for the rest of this year they will be thereabouts next year with Coleman and the Ashcroft’s added to that team.

Port getting roundly beaten on their home deck.

Hinkley going to be chugging his Diet Cokes today, he’s going to be under a lot of pressure to turn around ports form - if this game keeps going the way it is

If Brisbane win they go two points clear of us win next week and we pass them again, and we are equal with Port on points in 6th, there percentage is taking a hit also.

Brisbane and Port also play next week, all teams will be on 14 games after this round.


So we don't necessarily pass Brisbane if they win again next week, and Port may still be four points ahead of us.

Lions = legit

Port = absolute pretenders

 

[Topiary]

Don't think there's anything in that Danger tackle.

However, it's pretty piss poor that the AFL continuously let Chris Scott give his bullshit justifications to get a player off. He should STFU and not comment.

That is the Scott way. Don’t forget they are smarter than the rest of us!

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Brisbane finding their form again. With Ashcroft back I think they'll be a lot better and hopefully destroy a few sides that we're competing with for 8th.

My dad bred it into me, as I've done to my son - who deadset despises them now. Moreso than me.

Same here. Hating Essendon was passed down from my dad and then onto my son.

My partner is Collingwood, we actually bonded over our hatred of Essendon! Helps ensure our kids continue with it.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Go for percentage Brisbane!

(well, kill port's)

 

[mustang]

Ports Percentage is getting a smashing they could be in the 90’s by the end of the game

 

[Bardo State]

What's the better result for us in Port v Bris? They're both competing with us for a finals spot.

It's hard to gauge. Some teams in the 8 feel incredibly soft. Some outside it are gaining a lot of momentum.

Right now, chasing 2.5 games against Port and chasing 1 game against Brissy feel about the same.

Lions, Dogs, Suns and Hawks all want in the 8. All are capable. It's tight af.

My boys too.

Went down to the local oval for a kick this morning. Women’s footy game was on, Mr 7 asks me “what teams are those ones playing, Dad?”

I say “not sure mate, I think one of them is the bombers”.

Without another word he yells over the fence “boooooo”.


Warmed my heart.

Ratugolea awful today

 

[RoughysMullet]

Ratugolea an absolute spud

 

[Kuuz]

Ratugolea awful today

Most awkward defender I've seen in a while. He's been atrocious.

 

[Bardo State]

Geelong, Essendon and Port are all pretenders. Incredibly frustrating that we lost to the latter two.

Could be on 36 points and in the top 4. Have to learn some lessons the hard way.

 

[grumbleguts]

"The most easiest of goals".

Thanks Kelli.

 

[Billyc]

Port looking very shaky in the 8. Hammer that percentage Brisbane

 

[Kuuz]

If Port stops scoring now, we will have shades of the '07 final - all in front of the '04 final players

 

[Billyc]

Might go poke my head into that Sack Hinkley #304 thread on the Port board. Always good for a chuckle

 

[Off The Couch]

Geez that’s a mighty boost for the lions % wise
Port on the other hand down 7% already

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

This makes me angry we lost to these bastards

 

[OnTheRocks]

This makes me angry we lost to these bastards

Nah, it's what we deserved. We took our punishment and look at us now

 

[The Golden Glenferrie]

Nah, it's what we deserved. We took our punishment and look at us now

Could say the loss we had to have

 

[I got the outside word]

I posted after our loss to Port that they should be more worried than us. Reckon this is the year some real talent could be squeezed out.

Edit: We do love a good Port player too.
