Oppo Camp The Non-North Footy Discussion & Matchday Chat Thread (NNFD&MCT) IX

[DarwinRoo]

Imagine if we could just give out acreage off the books to recruit superstars.

 

[Cyber_punk]

This is an extraodinary capitulation by Port.

 

[LB2Snake]

What happened to Butters?? I missed him going off. Injured clearly?

 

[The Talent Scout]

Other than missing a few shots on goal its been a fair domination.

A few? Geelong should be easily 90 odd points in front and I'm being generous, my goodness they have missed some goals, the Kenny's press conference and the port board will need some serious reading before I go to bed, and to think with Tom Stuart not playing and Scott not gambling on De Konning, professional football performance! While I don't like Geelong, give credit where its due, they have dismembered Port Power. One question, DO YOU LOVE TO SEE IT? WAIT, I THINK WE NEED TWO OF THESE!

 

[SpiderBurton22]

What happened to Butters?? I missed him going off. Injured clearly?

Sore ribs

 

[Makeshift Park]

What happened to Butters?? I missed him going off. Injured clearly?

Some unspecified soreness. It was a bit odd.

[Hydrurga]

As shit as we are at this moment in time, at least we aren't getting shat on in a final by 70+ points at home in which we were favourites to win.

There's always a silver lining, lads.

 

[Samsquanch]

Hojuman no Finals thread this year?

Think Hojuman was busy watching vs (we won, 50 - 12 in a canter).

 

[flojo]

Hope JHF has to fortitude to sit this rebuild out. Who knows he might see finals again in his 30s

 

[LB2Snake]

Sore ribs

Some unspecified soreness. It was a bit odd.

But he’s so brave and most courageous

 

[Roostorm]

50,000 disappointed ports fans……Kenny you magnificent b$$#%% l salute you.
Bring on the presser

 

[The Talent Scout]

Why didn’t the club just listen to me?

Yeah, fair credit to you roos, you were on him early!

 

[Makeshift Park]

But he’s so brave and most courageous

Its just such a terrible shame that Port are so reliant on their vaunted midfield firing in order to win games. Oh well.

 

[Makeshift Park]

C'mon cats, I'm staying up for a round 90 point victory, lets do this.

 

[Gasometer]

Never forget

 

[big_e]

Was playing reserves in WAFL they just said on telecast.

Just on this, Lawson Humphries played the last six games in the WAFL seniors. That's more games in the seniors than Daniel Curtin, for instance, and his Swans clubmate Riley Hardeman played round one before dropping back to the Colts for the rest of the year). He had a couple of 20+ possession games in the seniors, too, so it's not like they plucked him from nowhere.

He only went back to the reserves for finals because Swans finished seventh in the seniors and the reserves finished second (and went on to win the flag).

 

[Disco Dew]

Poortalol.

 

[The Talent Scout]

What happened to Butters?? I missed him going off. Injured clearly?

Rib injury!

 

[Hopper10]

Imagine having a developing forward waiting for your star forward to retire. Thought you just kept drafting HFF and Mids

Maybe we can chase Charlie Dixon

[roos_fanatic08]

This should be a lesson to North…without a decent spine and pressure small forwards (Port) your midfield counts for **** all!

 

[muttley45]

He had 10 touches in the 1st 3 quarters, he's getting junk time stats now.

And his first 2 disposals in the last Q were direct turnover's

 

[King Corey]

tazaa is right.

Geelong's cliffs are smaller than a 28yo Corio grandmother's heels on a night out.

Sydney and Hawthorn. Making a mockery of the AFL draft model this millennium. Every few years there they are again.

Meanwhile we're in an eternal cycle of slapping ourselves on the back for trying in a couple of tight losses each year.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Nobody took him in the MSD. Maybe if we got Barlow earlier then things would have been different.

But why? He was the most dominant VFL player in the first half of the year and so many draftable traits. Blows me away that more players like him aren’t given the opportunity.
