Could you provide a review of Ports match Boon?


The burn isn't fresh mate. Not for me anyways. Cool running water?

Yes please


All that luck with injuries gone in 15 minutes. Lever and Talia went down and game over. Looks like they risked an injured Jenkins ( Yes he was out there ) and it back fired. Jacobs beaten in the middle by two Neville Nobodys. Betts smothered by Smith. All very good news.

Jacobs didn't look right either. What was the extent of Rohan's injury?

Yeah, MW was a bit of a wanker last night, especially since we hadn't even played yet & we're never going to win

1 because they had $700k to spend so they may as well spend it on something decent ;-)

Yep, the Swans brought their top shelf pressure. And sheer physicality as well, players were throwing themselves into the contest with reckless abandon.

Isaac Heeney's bump which set up a goal late in the first quarter was great to watch, the stuff finals victories are made of.

After watching the game again dear I say it the Crows played very much a bruise free brand of footy. That will never stack up against Sydney and especially in a final.

On reflection Heeney was best on for mine.

Good observation, seems a few couldn't see it a couple of months ago.

That first quarter was absolutely manic. But I thought your pressure gradually waned as the game went on. Next week the Cats need to soak up the inevitable Swans burst, whenever it comes and not give up a rush of goals like we did at Cat Park and like the crows did last night. Geelong tend to finish games very well. With that six day break, Geelong need to minimise the scoreboard pressure whenever Sydney gets on top.

Thought Kennedy shaded him but a monster game from Heeney.

MW copping a hiding in this thread, not sure it's deserved. But he's doing himself no favours by going MIA. Take your medicine dude.
