Review Round 24, 2024 vs Fremantle

[philreich]

Awww yes Bounce is on!

I'd almost rather watch Farmer Wants a Wife.

 

[Black 18]

That was a gutsy win, no question.

Didn't think we really hit any great heights at any stage. Seemed to me that we had many passengers right throughout the game but the true leaders of this club showed great courage and want to get the job done.

We're being tested a lot at the moment on so many front and that's usually when the real PAFC come to play.

Might only be extreme wishful thinking but this side feels different.

Can't wait for the next chapter.

 

[ShowdownDomination]

Brilliant performance.

Have we ever finished off a home and away season as well as this one ?

 

[gbear]

Reminded a bit of last week’s showdown. Close in the first 3 quarters then Port put the foot down

They seem to have the extra gear in the fourth, unlike last seasons.

 

[yepits2020]

Jordan Sweet our best player by a long way. About time a ruck was our best player. It has been a long time since that has happened.

I do wonder if having a good back up in the ruck helped.

Wines was up there as well.

As much as JHF impacts the game, I don’t think he deserves the three Brownlow votes.

 

[pastmyprimus]

Thought DBJ was good when he went down back

 

[HBF]

****ing thank you LEGENDS!

Mate sent me this.

The final 8 if Port didn't steal that game from Hawthorn

1. Sydney 17-0-6 126.7%
2. Hawthorn 15-0-8 119.0%
3. Port Adelaide 15-0-8 114.4%
4. Geelong 15-0-8 112.2%
5. GWS 15-0-8 109.1%
6. Brisbane Lions 14-1-8 121.9%
7. Western Bulldogs 14-0-9 125.1%
8. Carlton 13-0-10 110.2%

Hawthorn vs Bulldogs, going to be cracker but the Vic's are going to hate the fact that one of these form teams will be out.

 

[True__Believer]

When will they release the fixture for week 1?

Sent this to my lad because I've been off Ports since 2021 he came back with "thank F*** Mcentee tackled Amon"

And the Vics can all suck a massive fat one.

Geelong week 1

Again

Hawkins greasing up already

 

[Jojay]

Our conditioning is top notch this year. Gotta give it to the high performance guys. We run out games as good as any

 

[jdeezy]

I think if we beat Geelong week 1
We definitely get to the GF

 

[Scodges]

I bloody well hope Farrell comes up ok.

When will they release the fixture for week 1?

8am tomorrow is what they were saying in the broadcast of the Carlton game. For whatever reason they are expecting our game on the Saturday which seems like bullshit but they'll do anything to get Carlton in primetime so I believe it

Edit: maybe not, Tom Morris now saying we'll be Thursday.

 

[The Flying Doormat]

Congrats Power fans. Thanks for the favour, we didn't deserve it but graciously accept.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

The week bye might be perfect for us, few sore boys out there. Hopefully Farrell is just a minor hammy

 

[chiwigi]

Will add

It was nice to see Ryan Burton play like he actually cared.

DBJ was his AA self in the second half controlling the backline

DBJ is twice the half back he is a forward pocket.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Pumped we got the win.
Thought we were cooked at 1/2 time with injuries to Farrell & Alir.
We’ve all seen this motion picture before though.
So let’s see how it ends this time around.

 

[Thrawn]

Cheers Port!

Hope you guys win the flag if it's not us!

 

[Us against the rest]

A very good win considering no Houston, Farrell & the carbon rod Dixon.

 

[MrMeaner]

I missed big parts of the game due to a weekend of drama with a family member. I caught the end though and it really seems like there is suddenly a bit of metal to our game. It might not always be pretty but it seems to stand up when the opposition throws everything at us (at the moment, at least).

Hopefully, they now have some belief in being able to withstand finals pressure. Hopefully, no one does anything silly to undermine that confidence.

 

[chiwigi]

We’ve shown the last two weeks we can play finals footy!

Let’s hope it’s true!

 

[Izzy01]

How good was that, a hard at it high pressure win. Great team effort.
Special mention to Sweet, Logan Evans, Bergman and DBJ.
