Q4
Back to s**t Byrne-Jones as a defender. Sorry, but while I love him up the ground, I can't abide him in defence. A defender who can't defend inside 50 with 6-6-6 is useless.
I hate defenders who zone off when there is heaps of space inside 50. Four Port Adelaide players and none of them could track Mihochek's run and move to drop into his space? Ridiculous.
LOL who was Wines handballing to? It's like he assumed that any player who was positioned with their front toward Port Adelaide's goal was going to be a Port Adelaide player. ******* stupid.
Byrne-Jones - ******* hack kick not from a stoppage, but from outside the stoppage = don't bother playing next week.
Wines is playing like a player who is passing to where he thinks players were instead of where they are going. Some games you'd just rather forget, where you try too ******* hard and don't let the game flow. This was Ollie.
If Bonner can't even get the ball deep inside 50 charging through the middle, exactly why is he in this team?
Byrne-Jones. Yep, you've just undid a great second quarter with such a lazy ******* punch across the face of the opposition goal. I mean, WHAT.THE.*.
And as if to say 'anything you can do...' Bonner takes a bounce inside defensive 50, purely so he can rack up a stat, and then kicks the ball out on the full.
Then Wines does his crap kick around the corner out of a stoppage that he's famous for that ends up in a Collingwood player's hands.
Disgustingly errant possessions by Westhoff.
Summary
A performance where one team was up for a game that established their top four credentials and the other rocked up thinking that it would be 'just another game'. By the time Port realised that there are certain games during the season where you need your A game, which was after quarter time, it was way too late. And it wasn't really skill level execution that was the issue, but the thirst for the contest and the desire to run and get the ball. I know these guys complain about the hardness of the surface at Docklands, and West Coast has complained about the hardness of the surface at Optus Stadium...but that's no ******* excuse. You have to play where you are told.
Replace Bonner with Jonas and Byrne-Jones with Garner and we'd be 100 times better. Oh, and bring Frampton in - the reason why Moore had such a great game was because he had no one he needed to feel responsible for. Absolute s**t coaching by Ken.
