I'll tell you what, Port is giving Brisbane a good old fashioned thrashing.

The ar5e fell out of Brisbane. I actually thought they were gonna win easily. What the hell happened? Too confident?

I like the touch of booing the oposition when they are going for goal. I had heard how bad the Port suporters were, but thats pathetic.

Looked to me like Brisbane didn't want to win.They were standing around, not running.Tired or just couldnt give a stuff, it is only a pre season match.

Port had a HUGE win. Well done, First winner of an interstate Grand Final, all be it an Ansett Cup match.

With Mark Williams winning the cup it now means either Ayres or Drum will be the first coach sacked this year.

Well, Leigh spent all week telling everybody how unimportant this match was, so maybe his men took him to heart.

Hey, Jubbie.

I reckon Mark Williams is badly in need of a good speech writer. I know footy coaches are not generally known for their ability to articulate their cognitive meanderings ... but really, Choco is downright ordinary when it comes to the gab.

But at the end of the day [borrowed that line from Gary Ayres

] he won the cup.

I've seen that from Brisbane before. People say it's because they're soft or some rubbish like that, but I think it has more to do with a lack of a proper gameplan. Once they get into trouble, their whole structure seems to fall apart.

This doesn't bode well for the proper season. How are they going to be returning there in to weeks?

 

[old bear/new lion]

So if the game plan is shot.Why doesn't Matthews and his Brains trust fix it.
They have had a bad pre season. Looked like a disorganised rabble a lot of the time.
Kicked to the flanks, fart arsed around a lot.Although they have played a lot of younger players. Still its the coach who should be responsible for basic skill problems. Also the kick ins are woesful, the set plays predictable. As for this kicking behinds for England, pleeeeeease. Get the bloody forwards out and practice.
Fix it now or sack matthews, he has had a lot of years with a good list and still the same holes in the team occur.
