Game Day Port v Melbourne Round 18 2014

[powermacs]

On the bus, either there's some sort of nerdfest in town or Melbourne supporters dress really funny.

 

[I Dont Care]

Roos will want this. Bad. We have to dominate early, forwards have to lead, midfield have to run...tackles have to count

Time to get our contested footy working again. That was what we built our game on in the first half of the season and what has been lacking in the second half. No point having runners on the outside if you can't get them the footy.

Big games from Wines, Boak, Ebert, Hartlett and I want to see the good man Cassisi at the bottom of lots of packs digging the footy out to our boys.

C'mon Cassisi you ol dog. Show them how to win the hard footy today!!!

 

[Greasyrhys]

Must win today, NO excuses today!!!

 

[BIG MATTY WHITE]

We have been given a gift ....

A gift ...I feel a renew sense of optimism. ...

We can finish top 2.....cmon port liiiiift....we can do it boys

Wingard's kicked one goal in the last 4 games. Some of his best returns prior to that were in big games. Freo: 5 goals, the Crows : 4 goals (R2), Geelong : 3 goals and Hawthorn 3 goals.

We're missing his regular scoring contribution. He's spending more time in the midfield in recent games but I think that's because he's struggling a bit playing as a forward.

Hope he can re-capture some of his goal kicking form.

The first one.

Or possibly both.

I feel less nervous than the last few weeks but geez if we lose this I'm throwing a tantrum. Fingers crossed the boys can pull out a solid win and regain some confidence.

I noticed some people getting on a train in pyjamas..... Something weird going on...

The blue baggers and the aints have pushed the door ajar for our blokes to get back into the top 4.
It's now up to the players to kick that door down, and while I would love to be confident, the two aforementioned teams have proven that half arsed efforts seldom get the chocolates.

Dermit better not be commentating again..

 

[Seanybruz]

Sitting in a row next to Wayne Weidemann.. Not sure how to feel :/

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Have a good feeling about this game.

 

[Jim Dixon]

Dermit better not be commentating again..

Better him than the Basil and Hame show we had when Footscray came to town... or Brian "WOW WEE" Taylor.

When I die and go to hell, I'm going to be forced to watch repeats of BT calling Crows victories...

 

[smeagolem]

Those people betting against port will lose cash.

 

[BornPort]

Not sure how to feel about this game. We could win it by 75 or lose it.

 

[cj_09]

Must win game today, no excuses.

Hard, fast and attacking football.

Come on Port!!!

 

[RangaInTeal]

Newton Sub... Jeeeesuuuusssssssss

 

[Changaneen]

Cracked a Stout at 10:30am. My kids had just had breakfast. Do I have a problem?

No. People that think you have a problem have the problem.

 

[Rankor]

Cant wait for this game to start.

We are going to destroy them. This game will see our players go in so hard and fast that they won't know what happened till its too late.

Carn the PEAR!!!!

 

[BIG MATTY WHITE]

Newton Sub... Jeeeesuuuusssssssss

Punch him in the mullet. We'll all feel better.

The weed is a top bloke. Have dealt with him through work.

 

[stewie griffen]

Carn the pear.

Do it for Dom boys

Time to start winning the clearances again and get on top in contested ball. Hitting targets would also help
