What is the point of having a goal review system?
Just instantly award the decision in favour of the home team and stop wasting time.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

I want Port to lose.

I want their bogan fans to feel the pain we felt ten fold.

Yes, by a point, with two seconds to go.

The hometown decisions are outrageous. That deliberate was a shocker.

Mind you, Eagles have had their chances in normal time. Typical of that downhill skier LeCras to not have the guts to pick up the ball, or at least hit it with conviction , rather than his anaemic effort. I once heard someone say that there are certain items that should not get on planes, like scissors, explosives and Mark LeCras.

The deliberate decision was a disgrace.

Why didn't they swap sides for the first ET?

OMG! Fitting. Absolutely cannot believe I was barracking for West Coast against shite hometown umpiring advantage.

Oh, the irony of it.

Looking forward to watching the Never Tear Us Aparts tear each other apart.

Well, that is good to see. A dodgy free to arm-lifting Luke Shuey silences the Power.

Jetta - game breaker. Blokes who can break the lines with pace and good delivery are gold.

Karma train now departing Adeaide Oval.

Port can now join the Dees as WCE's bitches

It's amazing what a difference good set shot kicking makes when the pressure is on.

We can only dream...

How appropriate that a club led by Koche embraces a song from a guy who died masturbating :D :D

How can a side with players like Travis Boak, Sam Gray, Chad Wingard, Ollie Wines, Charlie Dixon, Paddy Ryder and a really good youngster like Powell-Pepper lose a home final to the Eagles?
Shades of our 2011 final loss to the Swans tonight.

Same here. Probably Hutchings and Cripps playing for the Eagles had something to do with it in my case.

I've been saying it all year.
Port are s***.
And we are a poor man's Port.
Port play a s*** game style that results in lots of points and AR copies that s*** game style

They are a joke.

And we are a derivative of a joke.

A Xerox of a s*** team.
