Nothing worth discussing to be honest.

Port were worse than shit. It was an indictment on the playing group. Embarrassing. Disgusting. Unacceptable. We've dished up some shit over the years, no denying that, today was up with the worst of the worst.

Sums it all up.

I didn't see any of the game, but that must've been pretty goddamn bad to rank with some of the dark Primus days in 2010-2011, like the 160 point evisceration by Hawthorn at the MCG (Port's nadir IMHO).

Seems like such an 'effort' came out of nowhere. Hinkley now under the hammer?

Hinkley should be under the hammer. As I said 2 weeks ago they have been absolute rubbish when it counts for now 18 months for a team with their talent!

Reports in from Shanghai indicate that Power flags have been hung at half mast from several prominent land marks. In other news Chinese tarpaulin factories are said to be running at full capacity. :D

The problem with your theory is Freo are coached by Ross Lyon.

I really can't answer that right now. I just don't know.


before today's result i would have said port in a heartbeat, but i dont know.

Ross Lyon still a good coach so I would take them

Not sure how you rate coaches Benny.... But it is a lot different to me. No team that Ross Lyon coaches will ever be any good. A footy game is won by the team who kicks the highest score.... Every time. The shyte footy that Ross Lyon teams dish up is testament to that. The fact that Freo signed him again to a long term deal is baffling. Still, that's their problem.

Remember, if it wasn't for the unluckiest bounce in GF history & also the luckiest toe poke in GF history, he'd be a duel Premiership coach.

Bounce was the first gf...toe poke was that the replay. If so it's one premiership... Either way the score is still zero.

I finally understand those annoying port power ads .... You know those that say why port power exists but they never answer the question .. It's so we can all have a good chuckle :lol:

I don't specifically recall the toe poke. Just had a quick look though... St.Kilda scored 68 pts for the day... That's the problem with Lyon coached teams IMO

Was pretty wet all day .. Think the toe pick was in the middle of the ground (Scarlett to Ablett) which resulted in a Chappy goal.
