Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Funny how Riewoldt gets frees for the slightest of pushes but Tredrea gets r*ped eby 3 guys and still gets nothing.

I think is because Riewoldt can be thrown around like a ragdoll, whereas Tredders is highly proficient at keeping his ground, due to his strong lower body. Make sense doesn't it... if your a weakling you get more free kicks.

Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Half time. We were lucky in those last 10 minutes. Another classic Francou clanger when we were trying to hold onto the ball. As Dwayne Russell said about Port's keepings off style. "I've watche them do this in the past......and they're not very good at it." Spot on.

Gotta go to work. See you folks. Lets hope we can outscore them by a goal or two with the breeze. We surely wouldn't lose from there would we?

Why has Primus not been kept at FF. He was causing problems?

Cochrane....GET THE PEST COMPANY AND FIX THE PROBLEM!

Like the little bits I've seen of Thomson.

Brogan ...going well. Ditto Lade.

Midfield must keep up the intensity. Would be nice if Francou and Senior could eliminate their errors.

Go Port!
 
Port are playing well, but they still arent confident within themselves, you can see that if St kilda get a run on that Port could capitulate. I hope not for our sakes.
 
Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Francou is the only port player to look scared and hesitant. Although he always has a scared expression on his face....Still, he's played poorly with a couple of highlights. And i'm sure Williams will make note of them. Is it just me, or does anyone else notice he often has no sense of the players around him. Perhaps he has undiagnosed tunnel vision.


Also, worst umpiring i've seen for the year. Even the frees that have gone our way (9-15) have been ridiculous. That 'push in the back' from Kane was hilariously bad.
 
Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Kingsley has had 13 touches, Chad 11 and 5 marks, Cassisi 13 touches, Shaun 17 and 4 marks off half back (gee how weve missed him), Peter 14 touches, Francou 12 touches and 6 marks, Monty 8 marks, Wakelin 9 touches and 4 marks and Tredders 4 marks and 2 goals.

Bloody Riewoldt. He milks those free kicks for all its worth, he can never keep his feet.

I thought Francou handballed it!
He did but Gram was too close. You could justify the 50 for that or for playing on but should've just come back to Josh imo.

Do we know why choppy isn't playing? Injury I'm guessing?
Roach only flew down there this morning and Choppy's in the box so I guess it's an injury from training yesterday
 
Half time wrap

Playing well, but St Kilda are shocking, some bad signs too though, and the game is not over by a long way.

Points

* Shattock is playing really well, might be up for two weeks though

* Brookes must of thought he was a Port boy again :D

* Umpires have made some big clangers for both sides, lucky 50m and goal to Francou

* First goal to Saints, Peter holding the ball, think he gave a blast to Chad and rightly so for no shepard and lack of talking

* Walsh very quiet, has he been on the ground much?

* Tredrea has got his kicking boot on

* Still mucking around with short passes, gee we look good when we go long

* Thank god Dew kicking long from full back, from the very start and not waiting till the last quarter when the game is over

* Great start by Kingsley

* Peter Burgoyne playing well, Francou getting into the game

* Winning the rucks and a tall dropping back in front of Fraser

* Chad, Monty and Wakes doing well in defence.

Comon Port go on with it!

Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Get these umpires off!!!!! Bloody disgraceful stuff!! Wasn't much in Wanganeens report but will most probably get a week.
Port are going to lose this if their not careful :( Pretty weak right now.
 
Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

The free to Shattock after he handpassed the ball through for a St.Kilda point was a load of crap.

The free kick was there but it worked in St.Kilda's favour as we had to kick the ball out basically from right on the fence, surely it would have been better for the umpire just give us the kick from the kick out. We turned it over and it resulted in a goal, very average umpiring.
 
Re: Pickett replaced by Cochrane!!!

Only 34 points now after being close to 50 up.

Riewoldt marks inside 50 on the boundary line. Weve lost the plot the last 10 minutes. Powell miles on his own 30 out in front. Wonky kick

P 15.4
S 9.8

We need to lift now. Theyve raised the bar now we have to go with them and get a goal back otherwise its gonna get too close.

Gehrig goals now. ********ING LIFT PORT!!!

Pred said:
Anyone, please?

I can't remember too much of it now.

Basically they asked Thomas whether he got stuck into the boys at half time and he replied with no. He just advised that he wasn't happy with the physical intensity from the Saints and that Luke Ball would come on at the start of the thrid quarter.

It was probably more of what he didn't say that made it funny.
