Game Day Round 11 2017: Port Adelaide v Hawthorn @ Adelaide Oval

[Off The Couch]

How many ****ups from the spiritual one tonight

 

[Hawthorn United]

Brand has made some Zac Dawson like clangers tonight

 

[Crankyhawk]

meh, rather the two adelaide sides do well rather than the cats...

That was Brand holding onto the ankle.

 

[The Lemon]

Better Hawks. Fight this out

 

[Off The Couch]

Junk time Luke

 

[Hawks1994]

Liked Cousins' efforts there. Too bad his teammates couldn't match his endeavour.

Certainly a positive. Love the way he makes the tackle stick everytime. Definitely has enough to work with

 

[The A Team Van]

What has happened to Jack Gunston? Most mind boggling regression to shit player ever. He was poised to become our next superstar and now I'm sitting here wondering if he'd benefit from a run in the magoos to build confidence.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

8 goals in 2 mins
We can do it

 

[Dixie Flatline]

This late flurry makes the first quarter all the more appalling. Junk time stuff Hawthorn.

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Junk time stuff Hawthorn.

It's good to see something though.

 

[Dragz]

Gunno ever had 6 touches for us in a game? This would be lowest! For some reason I keep visualizing him in an Essendon jumper.

<Shrug> if we want to get a top round pick, have to trade someone. might as well be the guy that is a gun forward that we try and have play like Riewoldt. Maybe to Carlton? I couldn't cope with giving someone that has ability to Essendon.

 

[Hodgey09]

Liked Cousins' efforts there. Too bad his teammates couldn't match his endeavour.

So much love for this kid. I'm bewildered as to how the hell he got in the rookie draft. Would've considered it a first rounder well spent if we'd taken him with one.

 

[SA HAWK]

Nice to see Rough find some form.

 

[tige19]

Cousins 2nd leading tackler, well done kid

I like him but he's lacked composure all night and fumbled nearly every time he's had the ball. Plus he's confused the rest of the defence a fair bit.

The camera cut away but earlier in the last, Rough was having a pretty fair old go at him for being in the wrong position.

I'm sorry Oh spiritual one

Him and our forwards rely on the midfield giving them good service.

Our midfield are made up of good ordinary footballers at the moment, so the service isn't there.

 

[Nugett]

Least we showing some fight, which we Werner doing earlier in the year.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

It's good to see something though.

Port flick the switch and Brand is lucky not to gice a free away on Ryder within range. Matters little as Ryder kicks a goal anyway.

Port dropped their intensity for a few minutes and we kicked a couple of junk time goals. When the whips were cracking we weren't close.

 

[Noneedforaname]

I wonder when this experiment of slimming players down will end.

Bring back the big bodies. I want to see fat Hodge and Lewis crunching people again, not a bunch of twigs who can't stick a tackle.

If Hodge was carrying that weight, he wouldn't have made it to 250. He would've been cooked years ago

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Settle down ryder, you tosser.

 

[The Lemon]

****

 

[Samurai Hawk]

this is ports worst second half in their history

Will never be a number back. He's a 3 at best. Back line biggest worry for next 5 years. Worse than midfield and that's saying something. There's literally no one coming through.
