Things that aged poorly

You could see the cockiness oozing from every pore when they were in front and every time they regained the lead.

Glum look on his face the last few minutes was priceless, definitely one of the absolute most arrogant front-running ****ers in the coaching fraternity.

That was Port Powers grand final. They rested players last week, had us at their home ground, got amped up for it… and still lost. Soul destroyer for their club

Pertinent point.

They took an L last week to try and win this game.

Elliot statue funding tomorrow. Absolute cold as ice.

Maybe an ice sculpture would suit

 

[stormskye]

I can’t believe we used to criticise the fact we contemplated taking Murphy over Stevo..

 

[kalex6251]

crisp starting to find the ball ..... building some form

 

[Pendles!]

Give him a chance. Delivery was terrible into F50 today.

I agree, was tough for the big men. He works hard.

 

[gerryg400]

Port have Adelaide and Cats coming up. Not sure where their next win is. I guess they’re a chance against GWS.

Nick was very good in that last quarter

In the commentary they said Drew went to De Goey in the last.

If true what a silly boy Kenny is.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

I'm just stunned we actually won the game. Jekyll and Hyde again, but l'm starting to think we just save our endurance for the last quarter, and run over teams. Not sure why l keep doubting us, as it's absolutely brilliant to watch....

I rarely post nowadays and almost never comment on umpiring. But the standard of it today was genuinely noteworthy.

Elliot statue funding tomorrow. Absolute cold as ice.

[manicpie]

This is for you Ken

Even Bobby deserves a pat on the back for reading the play and coming back to that centering ball from McCreery and then slotting the goal as cool as a cucumber, all after after having an absolute 'mare of a game up to that point.

Absolute ice in the veins from all of our forwards in the last quarter.

 

[Hong Kong Pie]

It was a grinding win against a strong team, and we had a bunch of players who did play great games, like Elliot, Sidey, Murphy and Crisp. Beau had some great moments too. And the belief and skill to finish from the Daicos' and Hill were priceless.

So much heart in this team; but wins like this are bad for MY heart!

 

[Angelus512]

Is Rioli gojng to get a week? Cos what a dog act.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

The old blokes won this today.

Pendles, Adams, Sidey were all brilliant tonight

Is Rioli gojng to get a week? Cos what a dog act.

I was thinking 2 at least

 

[WakeUpPies]

How does Jamie manage to even walk around with those massive balls?

That was a hard 4 quarter game so don’t think they had the luxury to save energy today. Carlton will be rubbing their hands together at the game we just played vs theirs.

Tay Adams:
25 disposals
11 contested possssions
9 clearances
5 tackles
1 goal


Last quarter:
9 disposals
4 clearances

Obviously really enjoyed being the #1 extractor

Think he's playing too well for Mitchell to be ahead of him in the square at the moment.

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

I came here to post 2 things.

1. This side is bad for my heart but good for my soul.
2. Some of the posters in the game day thread shouldn't have the face to post here after a game like this. If they can't keep their negativity and bile to themselves until the game has finished then GTFO; you're pea-hearted and fickle AF and have no place here.

Jamie Elliott for PM.

100% this.
Down by 17 at 3qt and it’s as if we were 10 goals down with the carry on.

 

[Kes1984]

Pendles, Adams, Sidey were all brilliant tonight

Elliot too! He’s old adjacent now lol

 

[Brodzingwood]

Great win. I think we are really well coached, we keep petrol tickets in the tank and will have at least one dominate qtr, we are a 4-5 goal better side at the G, im really confident
