2nds South Adelaide vs Port Adelaide - Round 15 @ Noarlunga

[Interstater]

Could put any or all of those 11 in the AFL side next week.

Hayes and Ladhams 41 disposals between them.
Marshall was 1 grabbing.
Dixon physically dominated.
Motlop looked slippery up forward.
Trengove looked back to early season form.
McKenzie must be close to Mageary medal form, one of our most consistent all year.
Atley and Mayes both solid the middle.
Frederick a good number of disposal at pace.

I wish we'd finished that game stronger, we need to start getting a percentage advantage over Sturt.
But at least we won.

 

[*PAF]

Motlop appears to be playing the role that I thought we got him in for. He is so much more dangerous close to goal than away from it. He is a natural crumber and can kick them from anywhere. If we bring him back in he should be anchored at the feet of whatever pseudo tall we are playing there.

Nah we're too tricky for that. It's Ebert's old midfield role for Motlop and Ebert or Boak as the small forward. Can't be too predictable now can we?

 

[MALTSY]

Dbj and Frederick are very similar players really. Both offer next to nothing in the air but attack the ball on the ground and are quick.

I haven't really liked dbjs year that much. He's established himself as a player but a 17-25 list kind of player. Burns the ball way too much for my liking.

I like Garner but he isn't what you would call pacy.

 

[MALTSY]

How was Marshalls overall game? Did he look engaged and alert?
Still think there is a place for him as a 2nd/3rd tall mobile forward.

 

[AwwThatsApples]

We need to win 2 of our last three games at least. I don't think we'll beat Sturt again, but as long as we can beat WWT and CD we should be fine for a top-four finish.

55 points up and we win by 28, that is the culture of this club absolutely no killer instinct, 3 goals in time on cost us 3rd spot !!!!!

Absolutely agree.

Sturt 54.26%, Port 54.08% after today.

You're right, but i'm just happy to take the win and a good showing by a proper forward line. Baby steps.

 

[AwwThatsApples]

Sturt 54.26%, Port 54.08% after today.

Dam, it's very close but it might come back to bite us. I don't want to see Sturt in a final with us.

 

[ozph1870]

I'm hoping he has been told to either play the kids or p**s off for that last game.

Absolutely pointless. The last game, a dead rubber / glorified trial.
Stay at the Maggies and prepare for the finals

Probably his best game I've seen live from him for a while

 

[Frank Hansen II]

Do we have a forwards coach at SANFL level?
We are so much better structured there.

Might be Cornes' job as part of FWD development.

 

[Tibbs]

Watching on the digital pass - camera is obviously mounted on back of a Ute parked on a slope

So you reckon it was mounted?

 

[Frank Hansen II]

s**t went out at half time for of an hour and miss us kicking 8 goals in the 3rd quarter. where did that come from.

Tall forwards largely; go figure.

Both the wind and the umpires had a lot to do with the final result.
We played well and I'm going to focus on that.

 

[Jonts]

I tell you what, as much as i hate his attitude, Motlop out of a forward pocket might be the best way to use him going forward

 

[Jonts]

Lol i left when south made it a 48ish pt margin just saw the final score

wowee

 

[OneGreatClub]

Terrific performance today so far. Chalk and cheese compared to yesterday.

Talls hey

Does that reflect the coach?

So in other words, he'll be crumbing at Sam Gray's feet - makes sense to me.......

 

[Jack Grange]

I think Howard and Ryder are likely to be replaced by Dixon and Ladhams.
Maybe Marshall might sneak in as well?
Good to see so much tall talent.

Howard back as our key tall and drop Jonas.

 

[raptalia]

I will take a 28 point win any day.
