Review Round 1, 2024 vs West Coast

[TazD]

WE'D BE TOP IF IT WASN'T FOR THIS OPENING ROUND WOKENESS

 

[Buget]

this game is ****ed, making up bullshit rules every year.
Why is this sub crap back?

Technically, they changed that “interpretation” for the 2023 season.

It’s like the “interpretation” of the dissent rules has changed again.

Sub-rule was because Clarkson complained to the AFL.

 

[MeltMan]

10 goal win. Should have been more.

No serious injuries. On to next week.

Hope the concussion isn't serious. Had venables flashbacks live, but maybe not that full on. Though none is always better

 

[240volt]

24 behinds sheesh!

Poor conversion rate, you’d want better from 40 scoring shots.
Has been a problem for a long time.

 

[PortPortPort]

Commentators said it's another record under Hinkley with the 24 behinds.

 

[Windy Cindy]

30* sunny afternoon, there’s you’re problem..

Who wants to be sitting in UV rays for 4hrs

Bailed early

Unbearable in the sun.. nice timing afl..

 

[OneGreatClub]

Ok we have a GREAT midfield

 

[afl2004]

Thank god i gave up my season ticket , scary season ahead if you have optimism

 

[portly]

It's scary kicking for goal. Too much anxiety.

 

[gtrxuone]

First game Eagles at home .Was a gift from the Afl draw.

 

[power09]

That was a rule from last year.

its all starting to blend together

 

[LittleLika]

Kenhog day

 

[Windy Cindy]

What does DBJ offer.

He kicks a nice set shot

 

[GremioPower]

Get Jay Schulz in as goal kicking coach ASAP

A proper review thread!

 

[WillemDaDrew]

24 behinds sheesh!

It’s humid….

McEntee jogged off the ground and looked alright. But I think he has had a couple of head knocks now and you never know how he will pull up.

Hopefully well.

But I think every Port supporter would have been calling for McEntee to be dropped for next week anyway - was having a mare.

 

[philreich]

34k is fair, but the mob from the swamp will mention “TARPS”

Go the Cats!!!

 

[TazD]

Agreed. Can't decide if it's Hinkley or AFL malaise. Leaning to Hinkley.

 

[Handsome_Jack]

It’s absolutely bizarre how this team can have you come away from a 60 odd point win feeling like a deflating 20 point loss.

 

[jackag24]

Ratugolea and BZT look shaky at times with ball in hand, but i do think their height adds more advantage to our defense. Less reliant on Aliir.

It didn't feel like any of their talls (especially Allen) could really get into the game

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Idk.

This pathetic goal kicking is a constant in Ken's time here.

Talent is not an issue.

Overall the backline was poor.

How do you let the bottom of the table score 70?

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Absolute wasted opportunity. Should have been 100+.

WC are still a rabble.

Missed a lot of sitters.

 

[Ant Bear]

New defence looked solid. Maggie, Sav and AA already look to have developed a good combination.
Butters, Rozee and Houston just continuing on from 2023. Soldo a big upgrade. JHF got to more contests, clearly fitter.
Umpiring horrendous, goalkicking worse.
