GWS Giants v Gold Coast Suns, 12:40pm at Mars Stadium

Lol is this the warm up game before the local footy?

[azabob]

Why do port insist on playing Todd Marshall?

[comrade]

Decent finish from Kozzy.

[DOG GOD]

Dees looking ok here. Good around the clearances and putting a score on the board while in control.

[bulldogtragic]

Port actually getting killed by the umps. For once actually.

[bulldogtragic]

This why I’d love to finish top and Port sneak into 4th.

[Mantis]

Melbourne back to their best tonight. Set the ground up so well and tough to play against when their best players are firing.

[DOG GOD]

The lever and May show continues.

Just so hard to score against when their defensive set up is so tight.

[angelopetraglia]

Melbourne winning is a bette result for us. Clear air to 5th position and also better for another Melbourne team to finish higher so if you have an away final for any reason it is in Melbourne.

[bulldogtragic]

Dees don’t need to handball tonight. I hope that standard applies to us too.

[Mantis]

The lever and May show continues.

Lever has had 1 mark and 2 handballs so not sure he’s having much effect… Petty & Salem on the other hand.

But in reality it’s Oliver & Petracca doing all the damage.

[comrade]

Melbourne are making it hard on them, but Port's entries have been woeful. Need to find that extra 20m kick to get closer to 50 before launching rather than kicking from about 80 out and going too shallow.

But in reality it’s Oliver & Petracca doing all the damage.

True, but it’s the leadership Lever gives to that backline that keeps them uniformed and in charge. Even with May, that defence would not hold up without Lever out there.
