Not one of the classic matches.

North players seem content to kick it among themselves around the middle while Port fall back to fill the defensive 50. Scoring is optional.
 
This North side on paper should be slapping us.
Agree.
Waiting for us to capitulate in the second half.

But given we have 6 or more changes every week, it's no wonder there isn't much synchronicity between the players.
The top ups are playing above themselves. Most impressed.

Burgoyne looks classy and cool under pressure.
Hayes has dominated since the opening bounce. Killing Barns in taps and around the ground.
Lienert having a shocker. Dropped a few easy marks.
Aldridge looks ok.
Edwards chopping out Hayes in ruck and doing ok otherwise.
Frederick close to our best.

We are letting Moore get way too many easy uncontested disposals. Close him down with someone put on him and we win this game.

When Norf get into contested scraps and packs, they have too much muscle and get the clearances. But when we use our run and get into open transition, we look good.

A scappy nothing quarter so far this 15 minutes. Them kicking 6 pts has helped us. Pity Fredies kick for goal was touch off the boot. Thats all we have scored.
