Almost blew what? We won by the same margin we always beat Carlton by. See you next week!And Tiggers almost blew it against Carlton let's reserve our judgements of teams until they've played more than one game
Im not his biggest fan but that wasn't fair on today-Amon is a spud - doesn't have the skill level required for AFL level
AFL live has Port with 43 behinds - surely that can't be right
On the pressure on him alone he's doing great.I mean, I'm not unhappy that he did well - but it's not like it wasn't his own behaviour that lead to all the criticism.
I've always felt bad for the s**t he got for on-field, especially with the way he was thrown to the wolves to start his career, but I certainly don't think his 'story' is anything remarkable, especially with the performance of 4 debutants today.
That's true and we saw when WC tied up Gawn, it hurt them big time in marking contests. Lose Hogan and that's a fair bit of marking power lost.They still don't seem to have an answer when their "bomb it in quickly and score" tactics don't work.
Dees comfortably. Should be fun listening to Lyon and Roos barracking
Nice salary cap dumpDid Hawthorn seriously give up Burton and the chance to pick Butters for Wingard, a guy who is over the hill?
lol.

Port guy mate....After all the hype about fitness 5 years ago with that Liverpool guy, it looks like they are back to that.
You know that the impact of a longer preseason is a myth.Adelaide teams have had a lot of time training in the extreme heat and have had a longer preseason. This was Melbournes first finals, so probably some adjustment.
You can just hear the disappointment in Paul Roo's voice.
