Ports first quarter I was confused whether arrogance or just dumb - constant turn overs out of D50, so many hacked kicks around the corner, trying to hit the corridor every time.. no composure


Dixon has been toast for 18 months


You’re generous.

The coaching staff have to wear it mate. You can’t put up with the same stuff at this time of the year for 10 years and keep blaming players. Ken has the biggest game of his power career next week and if I was a Power fan I’d be dead set furious right now. Geelong saw them coming a mile away and all they had to do was ride out the wave at the beginning. Bombing it to packs your forward line is not winning you games of footy against the best.


The players are mentally weak.
Aliir went missing, Rozee had no impact, Rioli went missing, Esava didn’t touch the ball, Jones shat the bed, Bergman fumble, the list goes on
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

Port hierarchy have a very difficult decision this week … do they extend Ken for another 2, 3 or 5 years?
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

ended up being +74, that's embarrassing

That is just plain old fashion lack of want for the contest.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Some interesting post match stats … Port have lost their last 4 finals by an average of 56 points, and this was the largest losing margin in a final outside of Melbourne.

Creating history this mob. :lol:
