Round 5 - Other Matches

Re: Round 5 - Other Matches

Can everyone please get off Port?
Yes they have beat Adelaide, but the other 4 are WCE, Melb, GC, and GWS. My kids u10s side would be 4 from 5 with that run.
Well done for heading in the right direction, but let's keep a lid on it a bit untill they play some decent teams.

Re: Round 5 - Other Matches

Sorry, I'm going to say it. I hope its a disaster and Brian has one of those games.

I'd like to see Brian's back become the official runway for Majak airlines.

Fair point but would you be asking our supporters to get off the Dogs if we claimed the same wins?

Ahh. Supporters are fine and they should be wrapped with the "heading in the right direction" point.
I'm directing the calm down to the media and general comments.

Yeah, I don't think the media are getting too far ahead with Port but from all accounts they are playing well and the coach has a good grip on the what he can get out of the players.

For an under resourced club, I'm tipping they are pleased with the way they are playing.

Re: Round 5 - Other Matches

I'm just not on board with the incredible run comments. And Remi posted a Ken Hinkley quote about being one of the best?
(I am aware that isn't Remi's opinion he just liked the quote) but some of this stuff is a little over the top.

That is a far better way to say it.

I've taken a gamble on this match and put Franklin as my Supercoach captain. I'm currently trailing by 8 points in one league, i've got 3 players and my Captain to count and he's got 4. He played safe and went with Ablett so I could have some egg on my face if it backfires.

I like the quote. Glad they're going well, and hope they go better than some of our fellow Vic clubs.

If you believe the reports Lake is also a lot fitter than previous years. If true is quite disappointing.

It doesn't always mean a lot, but he certainly looks a lot better.

They certainly are and the fans are particularly happy with the crows going well under their own expectations.

Perhaps Lake was advised to carry more bulk with us, and maybe the Hawks want him to play a more running role.

Re: Round 5 - Other Matches

How did Norf lose that?
Smashed them everywhere except on the scoreboard.
Cyril the big difference, and some poor decision making from a few Norf players in the end.
When needed, Hodge stands up.

I think you are being kind to him. He looked overweight for the majority of his career with us.
