Well done on a great season Port, I was sh*ting myself going into this game tonight. I'm sure you're bitterly disappointed for the moment but I think it's important to remember how lucky we were to face you with quite a few of your best 23 not out there tonight and us having the sheer fortune of a healthy list at the pointy end of the season. You'll be up there amongst it again next year, I am certain.

My Mum (who only tolerates the footy) just pointed that Horse Longmire wasn’t smiling after the game.
Compare that to Donuts.

Well done on a great season. Commiserations to you all.
I was genuinely more impressed by Hawthorn and Geelong.
Felt like we could have won every midfield possession we wanted but we don't have the structure or gameplan to do anything with it.
Nope we will crash + burn in the 2025 finals

Really as poorly as that game could've possibly gone. We never really threatened to win but it didn't get coach-sacking level embarrassing either. Worst case scenario.
Kicking to leading forwards just isn't working for us anymore, need to switch it up and try bombing it in long once in a while.

Side isn't good enough. It's that simple.
Too many average players who have zero impact on the game.
As well as the team it's bleeding obvious that every single time Ken wants to win a game tactically we get smashed. Unless, of course, we are playing bottom 4 sides, then their skill level isn't good enough to beat the master of tactics.
All night (as we did against Geelong) it was zone as soon as they get the ball. Forwards just running back to defense, at times not even watching the ball/play, hurrying to get in to position. Sydney just calmy moved the ball around our zone and went end to end with a minimum of fuss. This is always the way when we play good sides and Ken wants his ego on display.
A team that has talent but it's last 6 players are very poor. A coach that really is a country league guy that is still standing on the back of being nice and paternal to those that matter the most. A chairman that is more interested in his ego than the club and a football committee that is as poor as any. Throw in the worst assistants in the league and yeah, lots to do.
We sit comfortably in the 6-10 range of rankings. Depends on the draw, a little luck, injuries, suspensions etc but we're nowhere near a top 4 side despite what the ladder showed.

the only take out I have is that there must be 100,000 hawthorn supporters wondering how the hell they lost against us last week
we would have been pulverised next week

We were never in the game. Our players lacked the know-how to halt the momentum against them. With Ratugea, Evans, Byrne-Jones, Narkle and Dixon we probably had one average player too many in the forward line. The better team won, we just made it easy for them. Shame.

I got bored and put in as much effort as the club does
