[Portmagpies36]

Thanks lads - a great service for humanity (you're my 2nd team)

PS - love the Kenny

PS - love the Kenny jigs

Those arrogant pricks need to learn how to grovel, they make Collingwood look humble!

 

[Powerade 08]

Butters 16 contested, 8 clearances
Drew 18 contested, 8 clearances
JHF 13 contested, 7 clearances

If JHF can keep playing this well rounded football, its just a perfectly balanced midfield group

 

[Windy Cindy]

these post-game interviews by the players jizzing on Ken are almost ruining this for me.

The only coach that it happens to

Even the fox commentators doing the same

 

[jackag24]

**** that was a nice performance.

The Hawk's and their fans continue to end up with egg on their face after they once again expected to waltz over us at our own ground.

The pure hubris and entitlement.

 

[Us against the rest]

Koch after the game - It takes the pressure off Ken.

Ken will see out the whole season, it's going to be a long year.

 

[JHF1870]

Rat played a solid game in defence.

 

[Coobk001]

I dont even think the umpiring was that bad. I mean most of the decisions weren't howlers. What was obvious though was the blatant ignoring if our frees. Watching Meek pull Sweets jumper, or have his arms over his shoulders for zilch. Several clear as day HTBs just blatantly ignored, etc. Just unbelievable that they can be allowed to operate in such a biased fashion.

Still had a few brain farts against Sicily.

WE HAVEN'T ACHIEVED ANYTHING KOCH YOU MOUTH BREATHER. 1 REGULAR SEASON GAME DOESNT CHANGE EVERYTHING!!!!

WhErE ArE ThE hInKlEY HaterZ now??

Rozee half back is just so ovbious, when he played midfield, his strengths were things away from stoppages, mostly transiition offense, perfect place to show his talents off of half back. and does not get exposed for being a soft player.

Oh God he didn't say this did he? Fckn hell this guy is a moron

 

[Windy Cindy]

If he was white and played for Hawthorn it would have been a good thing.

Any chance willie could get a free.. he plays to different rules.. scragged, dragged hung onto and zip.

Meek slightly touched and freekick

 

[ZeroGlass]

Another minor round game full of emotion.

 

[PowerBaz]

I think the huge start was entirely down to the Rozee switch throwing out all their planning

They would have gone in expecting to keep Rozee quiet, then suck Butters into some push and shove, JHF playing with a head of steam, etc.

and instead it was just a purely professional performance from the midfield with no passengers.

Rozee down back is where he played with Carr at North? Suits him well.

 

[Us against the rest]

Oh God he didn't say this did he? Fckn hell this guy is a moron

Yeah he did to BT.

 

[Coobk001]

Hawks couldn’t flipping miss in that second half…

This was the noticeable feature, we missed an array of gettable shots, which went the other way for them to not miss.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

Sicily is such an unlikeable dickhead

There was one on the members wing, the bloke was tackled and then a one handed handball and no free..

He is a good forward too ....

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

I know he was sub but Joe Berrys 1 kick 1 HB doesn’t do a lot for his confidence

 

[ibd77]

Another minor round game full of emotion.

Sydney are going to belt us next week.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Sicily is such an unlikeable dickhead

To watch him Mitchell Ginnivan and the rest of them get humiliated was rather enjoyable.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Sydney are going to belt us next week.

Can’t I just enjoy tonight for another couple of days!

 

[Long live PAFC]

Gotta enjoy it. Was expecting a belting the other way so a win and that first half were delicious.

Richards had a great first half. Was everywhere and had a supreme work rate. Mead too, just stepped up.

Rozee down back was smart. He seemed to set everyone up ahead of him and replaced Houston.

The loss of Bergs hurt and you could tell we were knackered in the second half. The effort was there though, which was lacking previously and we gave it everything. And the physicality was excellent.

Butters and JHF see the game differently and have talent to make things happen.

Don’t like to talk about the umpires. Will say that Sweet coughed up a number of frees and he needs to work on this. There was some inconsistency throughout and some mares (the non mark to Mitch and then Barrass). I’m also not sure how a side can drub the opposition so thoroughly and yet be smashed in the frees 2-1.
