    Surely I'm not the only one who can't stand Stevie J now?

    Lost a yard, so he's reduced to annoying little tricks along with flopping all over the place to win frees and getting in the face of the opposition.

    Seems like a bit of a flog.

      Never liked Stevie J.

      I know it's a close game and Port could well win this by 6 goals, but they really don't look like a side capable of challenging. Not sure what's changed since last season, but I can't see them beating the top 2-3 in finals - if they even get there.

        Some decent games this round. Freo should win but the others could all go either way
        If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

          I don't understand how he gets away with slapping players open handed in the face.

              Gee wish we had of won last week against Port but I have to tell myself we are a young team that is exciting but will have both ups and downs.

                Port have gone backwards ( although they have a losing record from mid last year)
                Geelong's back 6 had a field day here, with port bombing forward aimlessly .
                Port are another forward short, and their second tier isn't great either.
                They're an example of needing to take your chance like they got in last years finals series.
                Keep drafting

                  Their stars all fired last week ( bar Schulz ) this week bar Wingard they were average .
                  Their second tier can't hold up, and players are a shadow of themselves ( westoff)

                    Complete turn around compared to our game last week.

                    Port's back line got chopped up with ease, yet our forwards couldn't keep it in.

                          I think Chris Scott deserves a heap of credit for that performance. Managed to turn a first quarter shootout into a stoppage slugfest and the extra man in defense marked everything. Nice spread of goal kickers with Hawkins held and Clark out

                            Clubs have stymied ports transition as well. They no longer own the corridor
