AFLW Port Adelaide vs Brisbane - Round 2 @ Alberton

[RossFC]

 

[Marmozet]

Adelaide and Brisbane was an absolutely ridiculous start to the season for us.

I hope to see more improvement next week but as far as I’m concerned, our season starts the week after against St Kilda.

I have to admit to only watching the Power v tingles AFLW game very briefly and I assume this may have already been mentioned in the game thread, but the back of the Port guernsey looks like it could have been designed by a member of the sturt cheer squad.

I can understand the need for a difference from the jumpers used in the men's comp, but a contrasting number panel would have to look better than that very bland white numbers on a light blue background.

Um like this contrasting number panel?

I could say I'm glad someone spotted my deliberate error , but even though I only watched very briefly I have to admit I must have had a senior's moment and somehow missed the `contrasting panel,' and the black numbers as well, but I did lose interest very quickly and flicked channels after no more than a minute or two and then just checked the scores occasionally.

That aside I'm staying with the `designed by a member of the sturt cheer squad' bit, but I will add they must still be going to primary school as that design is in my opinion absolutely dreadful, and I doubt I'm the only one who thinks the same, but someone had to put it out there and take the heat.

The number panel looks crap on the womens kits.

I thought the women's jumpers looked great. Don't see the problem. Come at me.

It could maybe use a black border around the white but its fine, they do look good overall

They looked fine to me too

I have no idea how Hammond keeps getting games. Easily the worst player in that 21

Brisbane got done by Richmond last week who got utterly belted by the Crows last night, could we be a sneaky chance here, or will Brisbane have a point to prove?

Our pre-season form looks good and our draw opens up after this one, but it would be good to put up a good fight here and set up a day of wins against Brisbane.

 

[PepeSilvia]

Very excited for this one - I think we’re a silly chance.

Scholz to be BOG.

 

[Amarula]

Like last week, there will be times when we’re dominating possessions and i50s. We need to put it on the scoreboard at these times.

Is this why Ewings is named at FF?

 

[StuMan]

That Brisbane kit is pretty mint.

 

[tribey]

That might’ve been the most egregious display of scarf-swaying in the history of Port Adelaide pregames.

 

[Coobk001]

Geez that was bad. That final piece from Foley, just letting the girl go. Far out .

Love the old Bears colours.

 

[JimmyBC]

That Brisbane kit is pretty mint.

Brisbane Bears kit

 

[Coobk001]

Lol at Hammond scared of the ball.

Lots of early chasing, but leaving outside players loose. Far too many trying to win it at the coal face.

 

[TazD]

Imagine calling your kid Bell Doors

 

[Coobk001]

Geez, this looks far worse than I ever imagined.

 

[Coobk001]

****in Dowrick wins the centre clearance free, goes sideways and backwards. Biggest kick in the teams and wasting it like that.
