They are a ordinary side who have been riding a wave of emotion.

No Nic Nat since half time paying a side who haven’t won against them at the G for over 20 years, getting a run from the Umps and still can’t get it done.

I literally have no idea who the leadeing contender is to play Richmond in the big dance.

Collingwood have a tough run home, can see them only winning 2-3 max and could even miss finals still

If West Coast or Port finish top 2 they should get through to the GF. Still Richmond’s to lose though

Doing well for a side with so many key players injured, exceeding expectation really

The licence afforded to Franklin to take on tacklers & simply drop the ball is laughable.

Surely Trengove is a far better option than Amon.
Amon’s just not up to AFL standard.
A little bit of Neade and Toumpas about him.

Is there a worse team in the AFL than Port by foot? I doubt it.

Port dominating the play but putting nothing on the board.
Ports disposals once again are DISGRACEFUL
Kicks and handballs consistently missing the target
They are a million miles away from a Flag

Been hammering the point for years

Are they in denial or are they actually trying to improve in this area at training?

Just deplorable at times :oops:

Yep Carlton, though we aren't AFL standard so your original comment may still be correct...
