Carn Port!

Brad Ebert has really come into his own after switching from the Eagles, is good to see as he was always good but struggled to get minutes in when we still had a decent midfield.

gently caress Ross Lyon so hard. The Crows and North played a way more exciting brand of footy today than this and it's a close game between two good sides.

I did laugh when the commentators said "it's now or never for these two sides". Port can go on with this list for the better part of a decade.

So it seems like this year's annoying catch phrase all the commentators are using is 'puts it to grass.'

I think Dwayne said that a player 'skied' a ball earlier in this game. Skied it.

We could have had Wines. Instead we took Toumpas :negative:

At the time of the draft it was "ummm why did GWS take Plowman over Toumpas". The Bulldogs passed on Wines too.

It's the same with Scully. He is poo poo. Real poo poo, i don't know how he is getting games for GWS anymore. But at the time he was clear #1

From memory it was that wines and Viney were too similar, we didn't go for the best player available

Nah gently caress that. Which team do I prefer watching? Port. Are they more likely to challenge us than Freo? Yes.

I just really hate the way Ross Lyon tries to put everyone to sleep.

Port vs Sydney will be interesting.

gently caress Ross. The loving commentary, it's like they're high on nitrous.

Brad Ebert had a monster night, 163 - 34 disposals, 7 tackles and a goal.

I only care about attractive football if it doesn't hurt us. I'll love watching port tear up the easy games but these 50/50 ones I'd prefer they lose.

The 3rd quarter of the Adelaide game was wicked. Hard, fast, aggressive as hell and good players were free to be good players. Matthews suggested it might be because the players werent match fit and it was opening it up a bit.

1 man interchange bench plz.

Pretty easily when it results in a win more often than not.

Same, a team that does what their loving coach tells them to do, and maintained pressure. Port were fumble-fingers, they made stupid mistakes.

The herald sun has a piece on a millionaire Essendon coterie group member who is bragging about getting Shane Charter to meet with Essendon lawyers, during which Charter briefed them on the position of ASADAs case, mysteriously "discovered" new documents in his Shanghai office, and started floating theories about how it maybe possibly wasn't TB-4 that he imported after all.

Of course being the James Hird appreciation society, the Hun seems to think this is just a guy going the extra mile for the club he supports rather than tampering with a loving witness.
