R19 - Port Adelaide v Richmond

Glad someone else saw the positives. Mansell, Bolton, Steely, Prestia, Rioli, Nank played well despite a few mistakes...and Ryan held an overhead mark! Those push-in-the- back frees that were missed continue to do my head in.
WOW one overhead mark, sign him up on a 7 year contract. FFS he is useless
 
Short one kick
Have to say the umps have let a lot of little soft ones go and the game has been heaps better.
they let a lot of other ones go also - terrible umpiring. In the back by Dixon on balta - nothing to see here…..goal. Not one throw was paid tonight yet both sides threw. I would prefer they pay ALL the free kicks that are there. It is the only way the game is fair. I think we only got 1 free kick in the last quarter - not sure how many they got but I’ll bet they got more than that.

For all that the final margin was large, I think we walk away calmer than Poort supporters would - get challenged by the 18th team at home for 3qtrs. commentators spruiking Charlie and Mitch and some red-headed guy….I wouldn’t feel confident.

Can’t work out which team will be first out of the finals this year: Poort, Cats, Blues, Dons (if they make it).
First two are *ankers but I would be happy if I was A Port supporter with the red headed guy. Mid season draft pick who has put a lot of our youngsters to shame with his performance tonight.
 
The whole backline got their pants pulled down. Miller, Broad and Balta were simply out pointed by their opponents.
To many errors which is something that occurs on a weekly basis.

Miller needs to get a bit of mongrel in him as he is to easily manoeuvred out in one on one contests.
Balta needs to play closer to his direct opponent as he didn't respect Dixon and Dixon easily beat him.

Yeah I wrote this about five to ten minutes into the third quarter. Then it began. Sorry to all on PRE.
 
Miller was 5 metres behind Georgiadis all night.
He isn't the answer.
Every week just back the forward to have a day on him.
He sure ain’t. Kidding ourselves. Way too slow, poor 1 on 1, no rebound ability and will continue to get killed by nimble forwards. Taking Trainor has to be an option
