Mmm, yeah.

Full credit to the Saints. But hard to swallow that loss.

First of all, does the coaching staff subscribe to the dyertribe school of Robert Harvey scepticism? Why no hard tag? Goodwin might have had the best of him in the last, but not for the first three quarters.

A few queries...

Welsh - missed two sitters at goal

Skipworth - also missed a couple, a specialist forward that struggles to make the distance from 50 is a liability

Thompson - so much for future captain, he was chief hothead out there tonight

McLeod - burnt the ball a bit going forward, and has become a perpetual offender in not kicking through the ball in running shots at goal

Doughty, Massie - unsighted

Perrie - I'm loath to criticise him as he was our best tonight, but it's frustrating when the only marks he puts down are when he's closest to goal

Our defence was good as usual. Rutten and Hentschel were great, Bassett too especially early.

We've been waiting ten weeks for our mediocre forward structure to get exposed. It did at the worst possible time.

On the plus side, we're not licked yet. We've got a home semi and are oncourse for a round 22 replay. And we have Ricciuto (and Bock) to come back into the side.
 
It doesn't really wind me up, but I find it amazing that the Port supporters are sprouting off BEFORE their elimination final.
 
this is a joke. U del my post just because u lost a final and look very silly to South Australia. I dont feel that it was fair.

Well that's really too bad, I'll delete any posts that only aim to antagonise. Same applies to any team board - DW

Top game that! What difference would RICCUITO have made to the result?
Probably huge but they had players out too - reckon the law of averages says we had to lose a game at some stage - but Harvey and DalSanto were the difference.

That missed goal by Scott Welsh in the 2nd 1/4 was crucial - would have put us 3 goals up.
 
I think Power Power fans should keep quiet. Adelaide won two grand finals in a row not choke in the two finals that would have taken them to a grand final

Pull your head in mate. Thats big coming from you as you would know about choking. Did your social security payment go on internet time so you could write all this dribble coming out your mouth.

We have a couple of finals up our sleeve before we stoop to the failure level of their club.

maybe welsh can be criticised as he missed some early, but perrie was great really. It was the massie, skippy, types as well as playing VB that limited us in the middle. And your right about harvey, NC was really poor tonight. Going wide in the wet is no good either. such a good opportunity too....
 
DW. i think that u must take the criticism for the peformance that was shown by the AFC. u held all the cards today. they had 5 first team players out and u had 2 yes one was ur skipper and the other was bock. but u should have flogged them i think u over achived during the regular season, and have been found wanting in FINALS
 
I recall going on the Port Power forum this year and having my posts removed because the truth was too hard to listen to. How about you Port supporters zip your mouth until tomorrow's result and see how you like other supporters posting on your forum.

Couple of tosspot swampies are about to be banned from the board of the team for all South Australians.

Yes Mods-please ban them if they are just going to come on here(it is our board after all) and rub salt into the wound-we really don't need it right now :(

If you wish to engage in constructive criticism about tonight's performance. Fine, then do so. But there's been precious little of that so far.

If you wish to engage in point scoring, then get lost. We're hurting right now and we're not going to cop this rubbish from a bunch of gloating children.

yes its ironic when if you even slightly criticise them on their board you're banned, not just the posts removed. Call them chokers on their board and you wont be posting too much more on there.
