Re: Let’s talk about cheating

Get a grip Yorkeys. There's no need to get on your high horse because I've got a different opinion than you regarding 'what cost us the game' You're not a better supporter of the club. You're not 'supporting our players' by thinking they got robbed. I'm relaying what the coach said and all of a sudd...

Re: Phillipou Close to Signing

When are we going to learn? It's not in Pou's interest or in our interest to play him week in week out. It's not helping the team, but most importantly he's developing bad habits and losing confidence There has to come a time that we wake up and stop making the same mistakes with talented youngsters...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024

Hill putting the team on his shoulders Worth his contact, from an individual perspective. Earns well over it from a team perspective. 2020 and 2021 I had my doubts. 2022 and 2023 he redeemed himself. Such a work horse but we rely on him too much. It means he's under pressure and subject to turning ...

Re: Crab watch

Billings does look comfortable at Melbourne. Looks exactly the same as he did with us. 15-20 disposals. Neat kicking and creative ball use. It's creative of you to think that Billings has creative ball use. Mediocre player 18 touches with 17 being uncontested and disposal efficiency of 61%....yeah ...

Re: Crab watch

Billings is not the type of player you need at your club when you're rebuilding. You need senior players to absorb heat and pressure....and with at least a little bit of a physical presence

We have enough outside runners in our team. Billings is surplus

I reckon we'll be doing well if we keep them under 135 points

Port beat North Melbourne last year by 70 points

It was played in Hobart at Blundstone Arena

Re: Team v Port

I don't think Hayes has shown that he's playing better than Sharman.

Would have been good for Hayes to get a game in his home State, but unfair on any of the current squad of medium talls or forwards to be dropped in my opinion.

Re: Crab watch

Billings 18 possessions 2 tackles Out of those 18 possessions only 1 was contested. So that's 17 disposals where Billings received the footy without a high level of pressure. What would you expect for his disposal efficiency? I'd expect 72% or better. That would be 13 out of 18 touches hitting the ...

Re: Team v Port

Just seems like we're unbalanced. We lack an experienced lock down small defender - can't wait for Jimmy and Ben to become available for senior selection. Too slow in the forward line (we'll probably see Sharman spend half his time on the wing or in defence). Not enough grunt in the middle. Too many...
