Review Port defeat Carlton - Rd 5, 2021

[El_Scorcho]

That was a 12 goal win performance where we only won by 28 points for some reason.

We looked pretty composed, professional performance, hopefully the injuries aren't too serious.

 

[Buget]

They looked tired and sore.

Take the win, move onto next week.

 

[finbarr]

Happy with that. Massive game last week with players clearly feeling the pinch. Did what we had to do, set the win up just after half time and went into cruise mode. Good solid effort.

 

[Winganeen]

Could have been more ruthless, but given our injuries basically a good win in the G against steady opposition.

 

[snozulu]

They looked tired and sore.

Take the win, move onto next week.

I agree happy to win and the effort.

Injuries and pure exhaustion cost us 5 or 6 goals.

Take the win and be happy with the 4 quarter performance

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

I welcome Georgiades as our #1 forward, needs to put on some size but he's almost there, so nice to have someone who knows how to lead and position himself.

I thought Marshall played the Westhoff role well but he needs to clean some of his possessions.

And another one or two injured, just survival mode at this point.

 

[Macca19]

Terrible game of footy. Laughable at times. Walking wounded again. Just happy to take the win and move on.

Georgie is a gun. Robbie has been in lightning form to start the year. Amon was smooth as ever. Allir great down back. Marshall a real exciting performance. DBJ back to his best. Mayes good for his first game of the year. Woodcock as well made sure we didnt miss Butters too much. Drew good as the sub.

Was just a good honest win.

 

[El_Scorcho]

Lots of nice professional performances here. Even when the game was in the balance we played within ourselves, likely sore after last week.

The 3 genuine KPF setup worked an absolute treat. Marshall using his mobility to play the lead up role, they just couldn't go with him through the middle of the ground. Mitch playing closer to goal where he's so dangerous and getting the job done. Charlie having a great game.

I really liked Woodcock's first half, I think he looks harder this year and he did his job before fading out a bit.

Midfield good. Small forwards very good. Defence was great apart from Jonas who I think had an off night, losing a few contests he'd usually win easily.

Marshall and mitchy g are both great and have areas to work on.

Play them both , no more who's better then the other , love them both , carn ports

 

[Bars]

Thankfully we are the last game on next round. Looks like we will need every min to recover

Limp over the line with whoever's left stuff at the moment. We should account for the Saints, but unfortunately Brisbane getting mojo back just at the wrong time for us.

 

[backtozero]

Professional, gutsy win. You cannot discount winning with players on the bench and injured/sore on the ground.

 

[ElectricG]

Not unhappy with the margin in the end. Was relieved to see the boys taking the foot off the gas a bit to be honest.

 

[davesnothere]

Just bank it. Loved Lockies game, Marshall and Mitch terrific maybe we can get percentage up against the Hawks?

Yep, 19 disposals, 9 marks and a goal for Todd is a great compliment to Mitch G and Dixon. Outside injuries all 3 should play every game this year, they'll only get better playing as a group.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Imagine putting a hard tag on Boak who then puts the hard tag on your best midfielder whilst still getting 28 himself and effectively removing two players from the game.

You could see when we “stopped.” It was somewhat towards the end of Q3.

It wasn’t that we weren’t trying. We weren’t getting it right. We simply couldn’t play anymore. The bodies were no longer responding to the brains. So, we parked the bus to protect the win.

Due these circumstances, I’m ok with it.

 

[Long live PAFC]

Good to back up the last one and to guts it out with several knocks during the game.

Wines, Boak, Alir etc were great.

But that game by Amon - he has really become something. Well done to him for working so hard at his game to build into what he has become.

Burton was great behind the ball. The defence stepped up.

Tonight showed to me that it was system more than personnel, which was great.

We seem to hate Carlton and the blues don’t seem to like us either - is this a stevens hangover?

 

[DazzaTys]

Some basic skills such as continual handball to a contest but that was a good gutsy win. Another tough game next week with a side playing for some pride. I’d imagine Hayes, Rockcliff and SPP would be looking at a recall.

Stevens embarrassed both clubs.

for me is the most exciting thing to come out of tonight. That's the sort of game i've been craving from him. Go on with it son!!!

He really is wonderful isn't he

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

I mean we had two or three goals we probably would've gotten on the rebound if the forward literally wasn't an injured Hamish Hartlett
