Game Day Tiges v Port

Considering we hardly went forward in the 1st or the last quarter it's a flattering result.
 
I see some valid excuses in the thread, but I thought we were smashed by a team with a system that puts huge pressure on us.

We rarely had play on our terms. Some players were exposed.

Rucks and clearances were a deadset liability.

Ross, Pickett, Egg, Rioli, are in the gun.

We were embarrassed today and I haven’t seen that for a while.

Good effort. Just missing too many players tonight at their home ground. Some players shown up.

This was Port's biggest game of the year and they set themselves for this! Let em have their little win tonight.
Will be a different story next time.

We need some clearance beasts. We have been destroyed in that area tonight. 39-21 overall and 21-5 in the centre. I'm actually surprised we won that many in the centre.

You're not winning games against good teams when you give them first use that much.

"We have still got to get past them in the finals."

*smile* off Dwayne. Ridiculous choice of commentators by Fox Footy today.

Can't help but wonder what it might have been with Prestia out there

And Edwards, Houli, Cotchin, Astbury and Nank

This was Port at their best, pretty much at full strength and playing at home! Not much more upside to them

Rest up, boys. Deserve a break.

Was always going to be a tough ask. Opposition were switched on and played four hard quarters in front of the home crowd. Need some senior bodies back, showed brittleness at times and missed a lot of crucial handballs (same as against GWS).
