Finals Week 2: the Keilor cafe games.

F*****g hell between Luke Darcy and Daisy Pearce, my eardrums are stuffed. Two of the most annoying voices in AFL commentary, behind only Kelli Underwood.

That’s pretty poor PT. he's a professional. And clearly loyal. You think Bob Skilton had a hollow experience playing one final in his career for a team that was lucky not to be Fitzroyed?,

Sure, hard to compare eras. Bob Skilton in a semi-professional era. Greene in the corporate era.

But even so, I think Skilton had a far more culturally enriching experience playing for an actual club with legacy and meaning.

It wasn’t necessarily a criticism of Greene at all. More just an observation of the strange situation he finds himself in.
 
Game on next week.

They kept saying Friday vs the Pies. Is that correct?

GWS were tiring or not exerting as PA had to make all the play to try and win.

Sealed by two goals in the end by Ricardooo & Captain Green.

Short break.

Port to Sydney to Melb.

Their motto has been “Anywhere Anytime” , but as much as I want, hope, wish they beat Maynard and the Pies, it’s going to be a tough ask.

But you have got to believe.

Briggs looked in a bit of trouble with his injury.

Go GWS & Kingsley.

Straight sets for another top 4 side in Port Adelaide.
 
I think we let the wrong coach leave FFS
It’s hard to believe we had both McCrae & Kingsley and lost both due to awful timing.

Not taking anything away from Kingsley, but he didn’t exactly inherit a terrible list.

Fair play to him for injecting some determination and drive into the playing group, which is what the senior coach is supposed to do.

sort of get where you are coming from but if he holds up the cup two Saturdays from now I’d say he would feel culturally enriched enough to last a lifetime.
(speaking of culture you can put in your two bobs worth when JR8 is doing his survey of Taasie)
 
What's Ports record in finals at the Adelaide oval??
Hinkley has a really shiit side.
Besides Rossee and Bulters the rest are hot dogs.
I'm Skinner then Rioli,
Horn francis isn't Dustys ass hole, more like a headless chook. I lost count how many times he booted the ball to buggery for GWS to intercept it.
Finalyson Burton and Farell are soft koks.
Durrsma is delist quality.
Burn Jones and Jones are nothing footballers.
I reckon they will finish bottom 6 next year

McRae also walked into a ready made list. As much as we dont give credit to the pies… they were a goal of the decade away from a flag in 18, a kick away from taking us on in 19, and a kick away from last years GF.
