Review R3: Port v North Melbourne Review

[cuthbert30]

That my friends is better than sex.
Beating that pack of scumbags beats a mind blowing orgasm any day of the week...
Gotta go watch the recording all over again now ....Well done Boys!!!

You clearly either need to change your technique or dump your starfish for a firecracker

 

[SupportMe]

Well done Andrew Mack--... Jasper Pittard.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

North have Wood but I have wood.

 

[Changaneen]

That was Port Adelaide. Welcome to Port Paddy.........you're a gun. For me it was the Paddy and Jasper show. Jasper grew a leg tonight. He stuffed up at a crucial stage, but then chased down and got the ball back. Jasper, you are going to be a gun.

 

[tim cotrill]

are norf fans really arguing about the umps? how many goals did they get from them!

 

[*PAF]

This might be way off but if he had a finger caught in the jumper it could be the finger and not the wrist.
Seen it happen where you think wtf how?

 

[I Dont Care]

My dicks out so yeah it happened.

**** you Dingle...I laughed through my nose then

 

[philthy05]

Trying to be positive about Ollie's injury but how could you break your wrist by pushing off and opponent?

That's what I want to know. Swallow had him by the wrist. Whether ollie twisted it somehow or swallow grabbed it and twisted it , although if he had ollie probably would have reacted so I dunno ...

 

[Dylan8]

fractured wrist maybe.

Damn.

 

[Burningleviathan]

So do North cop shit for only getting 22,000 on a Saturday night against another top 4 side?

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Ken thinks Wines will be out for a long time.

 

[philthy05]

Actually in the replay swallow doesn't have his wrist but his arm. So ollie has twisted it somehow.

Nah...they can't afford tarps

 

[ibd77]

Relieved....that is all.

 

[Changaneen]

Lucky to get that win. Those wins when you play terrible are still wins! But a pretty hollow victory really. Especially seeing wines

Its not a hollow victory at all...........we rarely beat North. Ollie got injured doing things the Port way. As shit as it is, he'll come back stronger. I'm a proud man tonight. North threw everything at us, and this time we put the monkey to bed.

 

[Waspy79]

So that goal keeps Mitchell in the side??

Or was he Kornes replacement

If Ken is fairdinkum, Mitchell (and probably Polec) get dropped for Kornes and Lobbe.

Hope it's not a spiral

[DazzaTys]

Geeze those North supporters have short memories. Talking about being on the wrong end of the umpires. Hobart ring a bell.

But apart from that tremendous effort. Was honestly worried about selection today but the panel got it right.

 

[HaroldOliver]

Welcome back the Money Man: our Schulzie!!!!!

 

[Macca19]

I love Mitchell, measured response to come in the morning.

What happened to Ollie? Missed it live.

Hard to tell exactly what happened but looked like he's damaged a wrist whilst grappling with Swallow at a bounce down.

 

[Chrizzt]

Look I didn't love Mitchell's game, thought his skills were still below par when we needed him to execute a pass that he couldn't do, but Hinkley just said in the presser that he went to Gibson at half time who has 21 possies, and kept him to 6 or 7 in the last half. So gotta give him credit for the defensive work.
Plus, you know, that goal.

 

[Steve Dore]

Just want to check. We beat North Melbourne? In a close game? At Etihad?

It was just a dream Ford. You'll wake up in shortly.

 

[240volt]

Bobdownback did a great job tonight and has gone from a lump of slow moving lard to one of the best full backs in the comp. congratulations to Brad for a cracking 150th game.
