Review Round 10, 2023 vs Narrm

[Sleezy]

Watching Jonas closely as I did I was blown away by how lost he was out there. He's cooked. That was a terrible performance. Him and Evans a couple of the only lowlights in a phenomenonal performance.

And Bonner. He's just not a wet weather player.

 

[Poo Eckert]

Yeah look what an amazing game to watch. It was an amazing tough, tough game and I’ll keep saying till the Cows come home both teams have it. Little bit of nasty for fun. Win or lose footy like that is true football. But you would win more than you’d lose.

 

[TazD]

That pick up though.

Pretty sure we can't post pr0n

 

[Duck Farmer]

They're going hard on foxfooty to sign him now.
I don't get it?

"What more do they want to see before they sign him?"

How about making a fücking grand final for a start.

 

[TazD]

Rozee so casual he took a bounce before shooting.

Arrogant campaigner

 

[chiwigi]

Credit where it's due. Zak was massive but Rozee wasnt a bad second fiddle. Sheesh

Drew was also outstanding clean hands when everyone else was fumbling.

 

[nadsee]

hats off to lycett> very impressed....
butters, jhf, rozee...williams, drew,
block out the 3rd quarter, melbourne are a good side.
BUT GOODWIN may have been our best.

 

[all seeing eye]

Bit of resilence this group, great to see. What a midfield group, just getting better.

 

[Long live PAFC]

That was just a really enjoyable game of footy.

We killed them in the first half. They came at us in the third and it looked to be over. Then we stepped up and kept fighting. Thought it might be the old, port won everything but didn’t kick straight so lost on the scoreboard.

And with Boak subbed out and McKenzie off, no forward line and an out of form ruck.

Zak and Connor were huge. JHF stepped up. Dan was brilliant. Drew was very good. But it legitimately felt like the lads were all in. Lord, Lycett, Bonner, DBJ, Williams, SPP, Etc the effort was huge.

Was disappointed with some of the soft frees to the demons - ie the SPP block on Gawn - and the flopping and asking for frees nature of Oliver, Hunter and some offers but overall it was reasonably umpired and Melbourne were good.

 

[Adz2332]

The one touch pick ups and gathers by jhf butters rozze and houston was incredible

 

[JimmyBC]

Drew was also outstanding clean hands when everyone else was fumbling.

Drew's first half was as good as anyone's imo love how he sails under the radar.

 

[DaTBird187]

Aged well.

 

[Macca19]

Lets put the top guys to the side for a moment. I thought Drew played an absolute ripper match tonight. Thought it was his best game of AFL footy. Won so many crucial balls in tight. That was great.

Williams was awesome in the first half and was awesome again in the last 15 minutes. Super game and what a turn around in his career.

DBJ, another great turnaround. Keep him forward forever. That pressure, tackling, hunting the ball was awesome. Super game.

Farrells first half was very very good. As was Bonners. Lycett too (though thought he was shit after half time). Ollie Lords competitiveness was a highlight.

Now for the top guys. It may be recency bias, but I really can't remember a more dominant game from a Port midfielder in a tight game than that by Zac. I know Robbie, Francou, James et al had some great games, but that was next ****ing level. Absolute god tier game of footy that you tell your grandkids about.

Houston was a ****ing monster out there. Was an impenetrable wall across the middle of the ground. Rozee was just relentless as well, super performance.

I don't think Evans is up to it.

If you can't be up and about after a win like that with your forward line sitting in the stands then when can you? Well done Port. epic win.

I feel sorry for you. Butters just had the best game of the season and you were busy fixated on Jonas

 

[Sleezy]

Lol, the defence of hunter. "Perfect technique for contesting the ball".

It would help if he was actually going for the ball. Didn't even bend over to reach for it.

 

[bomberclifford]

Matthew Richardson is visibly disappointed after the game tonight

Our CEO?

in the team this year and 0-2 without him in the team. Thanks for your attention.

Matthew Richardson is visibly disappointed after the game tonight

Probably depressed as his home state of Tasmania doesn't want AFL any more.

 

[Vagabond0]

Your guess is as good as mine. It's the same coach that decided to give Petracca's midfield minutes to plodder-extraordinare Brayshaw for half the game – does some genuinely mind-boggling things sometimes.

I don't watch Melbourne often but thought Petracca was being managed.

Wasn't he in doubt, from an outsiders perspective looked look he was being kept as a last roll of the dice option.

Personally thought he stepped up in the 3rd after barely seeing a cente bounce in the first half.

 

[elbarton]

Just a public service announcement so it doesn't escape anyone's attention, we're 8-0 with Trent McKenzie in the team this year and 0-2 without him in the team. Thanks for your attention.

Do me ol’ gun

 

[Marmozet]

 

[Adz2332]

Mcentee or Evans? One spot hard to pick on tonight's effort. Would look better replacing both with Fanta and rioli

 

[ibd77]

PERCENTAGE WENT DOWN

If we bloody kick straight this season, our percentage would be up there with the other top 4 contenders.
