Review Round 19, 2023 vs Collingwood

[DazzaTys]

Hard to understand how Mc gets a game before Narkle. He’s had a rubbish month. Whinge all you want about the rubbish umpiring but when every f$$king week our goal kicking is atrocious, as DD says, you get what you deserve.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Surely that late play was a mark. He had caught it before Sidebottom cannoned into him. Pies got some, let's say, nice decisions go their way.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

Darrell’s dropped mark too

 

[gbear]

Really can’t lose a game for the year now, if we do we’re relying on Brisbane also losing.

We deserve to play Brisbane at the Gabba!

 

[MALTSY]

An enjoyable game to watch and Port really stood up. In the end, we were beaten strategically...not by effort.
Murphy was a thorn in our side tonight.

 

[Port 2004]

Because we'll be lucky to win 2 more.

And sure live ladder might say that considering it's live and there's still 6 games to go?

In your opinion.

 

[PAFC66]

On a side note I hate kicking to the old scoreboard end in last quarters

I can't remember the last time in a big game we've won kicking to that end

 

[PAFC66]

In your opinion.

Other than the GWS and Rich game I can't see us winning any others .. maybe Freo? Have you seen Brisbane's draw?

 

[Smartys Power]

The umpires weren’t the reason we lost but did we get a free kick in the last quarter?

 

[drcollossimo]

It was clearly deliberate. Umpiring had no bearing on the result at all

Agree 100% yea couple decision were dodgy we got some too

Not winning a centre square clearance for the whole 4th quarter was why we lost

 

[Chrizzt]

Fantasia over Evans and we win by 3 goals

 

[Jimmy95]

It looked way more IN than I was expecting. Live I thought he had marked the ball in Perth.

It was clearly a mark on the slow mo vision.

 

[minno12]

the big one is pies v lions. i still have us finishing second. only have us getting beaten by cats.

 

[Jonts]

Not that annoyed tbh

Thought it was going to be a 6+ loss and then the season is gone cause mentally theyre shot
Very easy to keep in their minds that the flag is within reach

Evana for Fantasia is pretty much the change for best 22

Maybe Narkle for Williams as sub

Bergman was brilliant

They took more 50/50 chances
Drew did a brilliant job on Daicos

Weather didnt help us i know others will agree
Look at how much height we had up forward

Butters, Rozee and JHF is a sexy midfield

 

[Portmagpies36]

Anyone not bothered about the result tonight clearly haven’t seen Brisbane’s remaining matches compared to ours.

 

[TazD]

Was really looking forward to posting the George Bush Mission Accomplished image if we won.

 

[edgie]

Yeah ok, what does that make the rest of the comp then?

Daicos is generational. Sidebum and pendles are still performing at a high level. Elliot is ridiculously clutch.

Mate we know the rest of the comp is big average. All anyone talks about is how deplorable the standard of AFL is these days.

Collingwood are the best of a plain bunch this season, the wheel does not need to be reinvented to defeat them.

Elliot's kicking was exceptional and would be considered exceptional in any era. I'll give him that.

Not making the most of our dominance and putting a score on the board has cost us as usual

 

[gbear]

Disappointing, but not unexpected. We had them ripe for the kill all night and kept missing easy shots, goes the other end and they are fluking goals all over the shop

But that's the difference between belief and where we are.


We could be competitive GF day, but we won't win this year. We're likely to drop from 2nd to 3rd and looking at Hinkleys 4th prelim failure.

So a 100 point loss then. Hard pass if port will embarrass themselves. #sackhinkley ffs

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

I hate losing. But it’s not September yet. Good pressure and hunt around the ball.

We have 5 games to get it together.

Haha - we are on our way to loose 5 in a row

 

[Port 2004]

Other than the GWS and Rich game I can't see us winning any others .. maybe Freo? Have you seen Brisbane's draw?

Well a number of our so called supporters said we would get pumped tonight and that clearly didn’t happen. So I give us a fair chance to win a enough games to stay in second spot.

 

[Jack Grange]

We didn't s**t the bed at all. Collingwood have been doing that to everyone. It was impressive we actually wrestled back momentum. The scale of difficulty of some of those Elliot kicks was ridiculous. A little bit cleaner in front of goal and we win.

You need to be clean in front of goal when it matters, not in July.

This game gave me back a bit of faith after the Carlton pants pissing. We absolutely tanked that one.

Our goal conversion has been bloody average for years.

I was hoping for a change of the guard but even this squad seem to have no what I'll call 'kill switch'.

We just don't have the attitude of a premiership side this season. Having a chance to put away the top of the ladder should excite and motivate you. Why is there a mental block for our players? Do they not care for a premiership?

 

[sobrave]

Wow what a bunch of pants pissers.

Sucks to lose, but we've had our share of arsey wins against Essendon and Sydney so whatever.

We actually proved we HAVEN'T imploded tonight. That was the best we've looked since the bye. Yeah it didn't quite go out way, but Collingwood had to pull out some ridiculous shit to get over the line. That luck runs out at some point.

I'd much rather lose this than in September. Butters was seriously pissed after that loss. Our problem is the spread is too thin, our bottom 6 are killing us. If those players can lift just a few % we can still win this - butters and rozee are absolutely flag calibre and JHF looked the best he had in a while tonight.

I get we've all been burned by Hinkley, but FFS he's on the boundary conducting interviews. He's not in control. He won't be reappointed as head coach.

 

[snozulu]

only positive for me is i have all my tips correct so far in the round.
