I think we are too tall for these conditions

Has Jamarra touched it? Bring Maclean on asap

They are cleaner and always appear to have an extra player at every contest. Going to need a big lift to get back in this game.

The dumb bomb long into forward line in this wet conditons is not going to give us much goals
Tbose 2 early shots at the start of the quarter is going to be costly

Brucie just hasn't got backmaen's natural instincts. Needs to play the percentages in pressure situations.

Honestly I don’t think it’s been too bad. We’re winning clearance and have had just as good opportunities going i50 as they have. I don’t think there’s anything amazing in their structure moving the ball that we aren’t doing. Very much result over process.

Getting outworked. Absolutely nothing offered in the middle of the ground. I can't see us kicking winning score tonight.

It looks like one of those games doesn't it, so much Jekyll and Hyde to this team. Fortunately it's wet so we might be able to keep a score low and squeeze a win.

Not much to like so far. Out worked and we don't look threatening.

Not sure why we persisted with 3 talls in this weather.

Six if you count the three defenders which seems overkill.

Difficult conditions. Port adapting better and getting to the contest first. Some easy entries into the forward zone.
Need to change it up a bit.

He tried to take it with hands first then fluffed it.

I think he changed his mind just as the ball arrived so it hit his hands halfway between 'up' and 'chest'.

Their goals have come from us not manning up. It's effort once again. We are beating ourselves.

Bruce is the titanic in these conditions. We will be lucky to kick 6 goals the way we are going.

Re: WB Game Day V Port Adelaide R5 2022 Saturday April 15 7:50PM, Adelaide Oval

We're over-possessing it.
Simplify it, take territory. It's pissing down, stop the backwards handballs.

Re: WB Game Day V Port Adelaide R5 2022 Saturday April 15 7:50PM, Adelaide Oval

Libba very quiet which is surprising given the conditions. I thought he'd be licking his lips.

I felt we went ultra defensive when they controlled the territory which cost us with thin numbers up forward. Their work rate seemed better than ours as well.

If O’Brien kills that one ball over the boundary instead of selling Bruce down the river, and if Darcy Byrne-Jones kicks that ball the same way he kicks every other ball then this is one goal each.

I think Bruce needs to bleach his hair or something so the players don’t mistake him for Bont in split second situations.
