Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Love how they have played Williams back from the first game of the year(obviously because he has a great preseason) and they are leaving him there. He is a confidence player and continuity is what he needs and it's showing early. He is a lock for round 1, well done to him.
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
I don't understand why we are playing Young forward
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Putting Cordy on Gray is a bit cruel.

I think looking at Round 1 a bit. Naughton being possibly out means we might go with another tall forward, if we go that way, Lewis is in.
If they both don't play, I think spot 22 goes to Roarke Smith at the moment. I can't believe I am saying that....
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Decent hit out. I think we have played well. 2nd quarter was the struggle.
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
One thing that is already annoying me is Dwayne and calling Hunter hunner the T is not silent
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Sure it's only presason, but dropping games in that fashion really, really bothers me.
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
The commentators called this from the studio, pretty weak really, but I guess a practise match Fox doesn't want to spend the money. Dwayne is so annoying

Vastly better 2nd half. He's in no danger

I have Roarke playing wing right now. Good luck to the kid, he's battled hard. Not sure it's a long term proposition but he's ahead of Hayes right now.
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Giving up the last 5 goals of the game and we also got smashed in the clearances in those last 15mins.
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
A lot to work on - we are far from a finished product which we knew.
Important to keep improving and tinkering. Talk of top 4 and premierships is nice and we need to aim high but we have ground to make up on those ahead of us.
Some interesting selections ahead for round one. Bring it on!

It's certainly looking that way. I'm not sure we won't just be happy with anyone relieving in the ruck though
Re: Marsh Cup 2020 Game 2 - Port vs Bulldogs
Perhaps we put the cue in the rack, hope that was the case. imo Dale, Wallis and McLean are no certainties for R1. He rest are I think. And Dwayne...…….duh.
