R22: Port v Carlton review

[TheFVK]

Been telling anyone who'll listen we'll do some damage.

Few more games to go yet but we're on our way. When we play well we look frightening

 

[El_Scorcho]

We absolutely caught fire tonight. The ball movement was pinpoint and lightning fast so our forwards who have had a tough time of it were finally able to cash in.

The teal curtain down back was as brilliant as ever.

Every player seemed to get back into some great form. I wasn't convinced after the GC game but any doubts that we are back can now well and truly be put to bed. We are an absolute freight train in that sort of form.

As much as I love the Crows I gotta say you guys played a great game tonight. I hope we can pulloff a win to make it a great weekend for the state.

 

[Port81]

Less sulking Wingard, no need for that s**t when we are 14 goals up!

 

[LFC2010]

oh, and muppet moment of the season was when Menzel tried grabbing a piece of the artificial grass and throw in the air Matthew Lloyd style

 

[Edgepower]

Oh and LOL the Carlton trainer - white Earkle

 

[Moo87]

Well, looks like we're hitting form at the right time of year.

I was worried we may have been fatigued following a slog in the wet, but we looked fresh as anything - I think we may be now seeing some of the benefits of the bye round (post virus that is), with players who were fading coming back into form in emphatic fashion. Particularly noticing all the boys who sustained an ankle/foot injury earlier, than went quiet for a patch are coming back to their best - think Polec, Hartlett, Wingard et al.

Seeing us really get back to that instinctive running style, and our forwards all getting amongst it was absolutely perfect.

Fantastic team effort tonight - gives us a decent shot at the 4

I was on the big screen winning a heritage guernsey before the game and we won by 103 points.

WTF? You had the platform to wax lyrical about the need for a third tall forward and you didn't grab the opportunity.

 

[Andre]

I love Neade in the forward line. It's so good to finally have a genuine crumber up forward. I can only salivate at the thought of him being at the feet of a 3 tall foward line in 2015.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

I turn up Port win.

There's your review bitches.

 

[Powerstufff]

Boo! I could not f*****g move tonight. Oh for the days of 13,000 people at a game where I could ride my bicycle around the outer should I need a beer or a visit to the toilet. And my hands hurt from high fives and my throat is hoarse. Boo!

They didn't give me a microphone! The camera came up to me and as it started to go back down the presenter chick came up and gave me the guernsey and shook my hand. I even had the duct tape for my mouth and a "free th KPFs" tshirt prepared but no opportunity!

If they are trying to placate me the win was plenty but the guernsey is a nice cherry on top!

 

[Edgepower]

Quote of the night W.Carey asked what he would ask NotmyFaulthouse as the first question in the presser. " how have you enjoyed your first experience at Adelaide Oval Mick"

 

[philreich]

Port at quarter time: 5:6 (36)

Carlton at full time: 5:7 (37).

Says it all really.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

A couple of weeks back the Advertiser was telling us we were just making up the numbers. Wonder what they think now?

 

[ozph1870]

....but but but, we only had a 6 day break, in extremely heavy conditions......

 

[Noobz0r]

Farrrr out, if we are peaking going into finals just imagine.

Losing thread was 6 pages by now last week.

Nothing has changed: just wait until Port plays a decent opponent.

Yeah but no one told the players Ssshhh!

Carlton were supposed to be a decent opponent. What we did to them was indecent.

Looked pretty decent to me

 

[Balance]

Ahh, dry weather football.

 

[philreich]

Yeah but they were missing 10 of their starting 18, and next week when we beat Freo, it'll be because they were missing Fyfe, Barlow and McPharlin.......

And we've only played in 37 minutes of rain. cRowie said so.
