Played terrible lost by 11 points, could have been a lot worse.

The boys sucked, we have St Kilda next week. Need to get up for it. Cant be any worse than we displayed tonight.

CC did not lose this for us. Our boys lost it with pathetic disposal against a team that does nothing else but stay in their opponents shorts.

Jeez, you blokes are crap!:o

Must be sarcasm surely because by Port standards we were excellent today. By everyone elses standards of course our skills sucked. Time for a serious look at who is teaching the lads to hit targets lol. Some of the decision making with proping, not giving to the first option, carrying the ball until tackled and which man to go to when the opposition has the ball is sadly lacking. Strangely the Crow throw continues to baffle umpires, how they continually miss it is beyond belief. While we would have won had we hit half targets the Crows did it was a gutsy win by the Crows, a very even performance. it was the fast start while our boys were still napping that was the difference in the end. Good effort by Grover on Proscuittio also, tough assignment considering the amount of ball that came his way. We are going to continue to struggle again the top flight teams however until we find a way to bring the ball into the forward 50 with speed, precision and purpose. Bombing and hoping for the best against a defence of Adelaides calibre is never going to work. Our forwards just arent the types that can stand under a bomb and mark it 50% of the time to make sure a tactic worthwhile.
 
Dont know whether Adelaide would be entirely happy with tonight.

Their clearly a top team but their skills were poor at times, probably our only saving grace was we reduced them to our level at times but not enough for us to scrap a goal.

Generally a rubbish display both sides but Cows better drilled and composed at the critical times whereas Freo ********ed around with the ball over and over-possessing the ball.

Should be happy enough. Third win on the road in four games! A win as underdogs.

The side has a lot of injuries, and is a bit travel weary, yet should have won by a lot more but kicked 16 points!

Perrie going down is the downer.

I wouldn't count your chickens just yet.

Last time your WC played Saints away, the margin was a lazy 100 points. Touch wood that we show more spine than that.

Firstly we need to start to at least break even at the centre clearances.

Secondly Pav, Elvis, Polly, Wiz & Longmuir need to know where each is going
especially when we are moving the ball from the back half.

Need more players " front and square" at packs inside 50.
