Who’s the sub?

Burton

 

[Ported]

Actually had a good second half to that qtr, just butchered every shot at goal.

Frustrating watching players run in to goal and then swing to one side completely unnecessarily for a snap, inviting more pressure. Just kick a bloody drop punt.

 

[Young Gun #6]

Casboult 4 goals last week
J.Motlop 4 goals already

We're always susceptible to getting torn apart by someone we shouldn't be

Especially when Jonas is in the side.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

What are we going to do with Ollie Lord? His goal kicking is as bad as anything John Butcher

served up. And he's not that bad a kick, this is all nerves.

And Hugh Jackson should have been played ahead of Mead if they were going to try something different.

Anyway still only half time, everything the Blues have touched has turned to gold, you get games like that. Have to keep at it and see if the tide turns.

 

[Poo Eckert]

Difference to what? His set shots on goal is barely C grade amateur level. He has no future in professional football if you can't even score inside 50.

Correct, he’s supposed to be a professional footballer. You wouldnt see a player that poorly skilled in the top tier of many other sports plying their trade

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

Lord, Jonas, Mead and Marshall have been down right horrendous.

Finlayson as well, nothing in the ruck or forward from him

 

[chachi11]

Carrying too many spuds in this team

 

[davesnothere]

Casboult 4 goals last week
J.Motlop 4 goals already

Motlop was always an ambush.

 

[Del165198]

Who’s the sub?

Burton. They need to sub Tommy BONE-ARSE off too. Shame we can't sub both of them

 

[Handyandy]

Lord has a disability and should be allowed to kick from the edge of the goal square. Clearly some form of ******ation

 

[Schulzenfest]

Hopefully we can delist and rookie Mead as he isn’t main list material

I like this post except for the 'and rookie' bit.

 

[Rozee2Butters]

Wouldn’t be surprised if we win it from here tbh, but regardless this should be Jonas’ last game in a port jumper

I reckon Lord has a negative 4 or 5 player rating points with his simple shots on goal and kicking on the full.

Has he been going to the Johnny Butcher school of goal kicking???

 

[Windy Cindy]

Putrid footy

Great selection of mead.. just delist the muppett

 

[NickFlips]

Hard to not laugh at this.

Jonas, Mead, Duursma, Lord, Burgoyne, Lycett have all come in and are practically our worst six players.

Duurs gets a pass. Long injury lay off, even with a couple weeks in the 2nds. The rest have been putrid.

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

Why select Mead if you are going to put him in a forward pocket the whole game. At least pick a player with some forward craft like an Evans.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

It’s always the small forwards that cause us issues, weightman, Pickett etc. how Motlop has 4 goals is a joke

 

[Windy Cindy]

Burton

Just put him on..

Couple of blokes have played themselves out of a final

 

[Waspy79]

The insipid game of Jones going under the radar here. Pretty sure he was meant to be manning up Motlop during his game changing onslaught

 

[PJ Power]

Lord has been infuriating

Yep. Butcher’s career was terminated because of kicking that was much better than this. Alas, Marshall and Finlayson not much better.

We kick two of the five that Marshall and Lord missed, and it’s a remotely hopeful situation.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Mead 1 disposal
SPP 3 disposals
Jonas 4 disposals
Marshall 4 disposals
Jedi 4 disposals
Finlayson 6 disposals
Lord 6 disposals

The way Lord is kicking I'd almost rather he keeps his disposals down.

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

If Lord could kick straight he would be keeping us in the game. It's not all bad but the kicking is unacceptable.

 

[MrMeaner]

As much as I would like to keep the streak going and set ourselves up for the finals, I kind of hope we don't come back. We can't reward fart huffing like this.

Bergman too. Early on Silvagni and then maybe once on Martin.
