AFL ROUND 8
PORT ADELAIDE vs RICHMOND
Sunday, May 24 @ Adelaide Oval
Start time: 4:10 pm CST
----------------------------------------------------------
10. REMEMBRANCE DAY:
The Tigers are going back to the scene of the carnage next Sunday and the result surely won’t be like their last trip to Adelaide Oval. That was the elimination final and the Tigers were routed in embarrassing fashion. They have their snarl back, the Tigers, and Port are back in the pack, so this one should be a beauty. Let’s hope it isn’t windy and Trent Cotchin wins the toss.

We will get our arses well and truly handed to us

Port have been criticized by their coach and now the media. Not a good time to cop them at the Portress.

Will probably be their turnaround match à la Geelong 2007....

Match preview: Power v Tigers
Harry Thring
afl.com.au
May 19, 2015
SUMMARY
Richmond managed to silence its critics last weekend with a hard-fought win over Collingwood in which captain Trent Cotchin played one of the best games of his career. Conversely, Port Adelaide slumped to its worst loss under coach Ken Hinlkey. The Power's players have been slammed for their lack of intent, and with club veteran Kane Cornes to retire after his 300th game, they have everything to play for. The Tigers, too, will be out to prove they're capable of consistent football, but do scars from last year's disastrous elimination final at Adelaide Oval linger?
WHERE AND WHEN: Adelaide Oval, Sunday May 24, 4.10pm ACST
LAST FIVE TIMES
1EF, 2014, Port Adelaide 20.12 (132) d Richmond 11.9 (75) at Adelaide Oval
R17, 2014, Richmond 19.12 (126) d Port Adelaide 16.10 (106) at Etihad Stadium
R7, 2013, Richmond 18.6 (114) d Port Adelaide 10.13 (73) at AAMI Stadium
R23, 2012, Richmond 16.10 (106) drew Port Adelaide 16.10 (106) at the MCG
R6, 2012, Richmond 13.13 (91) d Port Adelaide 8.6 (54) at AAMI Stadium
THE SIX POINTS
1. Port Adelaide thrashed Richmond the last time these sides met – 100-79 marks, 32-20 scoring shots and 14 goals to three in the first half. Skipper Travis Boak starred with 34 disposals.
2. The Power have struggled to finish games in 2015 and have won only one final quarter while the Tigers have won six of seven last terms.
3. The Tigers have been favoured by the umpires in 2015 and lead the competition for free kicks with an average of 25 a game; Trent Cotchin is equal third for free kicks awarded with 20.
4. Port Adelaide’s scoring is down in 2015 compared to last season. The Power are ranked 11th this season averaging 81.7 points a game, while in 2014 they were second at 100 points a game.
5. This is the 26th meeting between the sides and Port Adelaide holds a clear advantage, winning 15 games to nine and one draw. However the Power’s final win in 2014 was their first over Richmond since 2011.
6. Trent Cotchin and Brett Deledio might be Richmond's biggest stars, but it's Shane Edwards who is the club's highest ranked player according to Official AFL Player Ratings. Edwards (No. 44) is almost 30 places higher than Cotchin (No. 72) and is 31 higher than Deledio (75).
IT'S A BIG WEEK FOR …
Kane Cornes will end his remarkable career on Sunday after notching his 300th senior game for the Power. The incredibly durable midfielder has won a record four best and fairest awards and will go down as one of the club's greatest players.
PREDICTION:Port Adelaide by 26 points

If Port win they will be called the real deal and they're back on track. But what if Richmond win. No one will be saying we're the real deal our A game is back. Yet both are average teams this year. Port partly due to injury. Richmond partly due to form.
-
No one will say Port is on track if they win today. No one will say we are either.
I'd say we'd get more favourable press if we win.
Unless they smash our heads in

Then its not an 8 point game, its a nothing game between two more than likely also ran sides

Our first quarters have been crap this year. About time we started a game well, especially after what happened last year in the first 15 mins.
Cotch won the toss again. No breeze apparently :snidegrin.

That'll work ;D

All Port so far. Have we hit a target yet? :P

Jack marks on 50. Goes long and Griffs has 3 bites but isn't paid the mark. Ball-up. Cornes kicks it OOTF. Morris with the free but snaps it across the face.

It would be nice if we got paid a free kick, umpires ::).

Great spoil by Rance. Free to Miles. Up the wing to B.Ellis but it's spoiled. Morris gets the free. Finds Lids on 50. Got under it and it's rushed through.

Grimes to Grigg in the centre. Goes long to Jack but can't hold it. Ball-up and then throw-in 30m out. Dusty snaps but doesn't make the distance.
Port clearing kick is marked by B.Ellis outside 50. Across to Rance in the centre. Short to Hunt to Miles on the wing. Throw-in and the ball-up at HF. Free to Cotch. Inside 50 and Jack marks on the lead. Important kick against the run of play this qtr. Goal :gotigers

Gerard Healy and Dunstall very disappointed with our goal
-
Monies goal out of his colon.
Fox footy commentators really pushing for the Port comeback. Really pushing
I've noticed that whenever we are winning they are always willing a come back, while when the opposition is on top it's always how good they are.
Just like that orgasm they just had over gray's goal compared to dusty's.
-
Gerard Healy and Dunstall very disappointed with our goal
Dunstall? He's not commentating on Fox
Ben Griffiths needs to extract the digit been very disappointing so far
-
They are using the third-man up at ball-ups to get the ball going their way.
-
Jack grab by the arm
Flap the arms play on
-
Lmao soft 50.
-
Silly by Vlaustin
No need to try and throw it, he lost in the tackle was going to be play on
-
Vickery's injury and hobbling afterwards looked like a classic medial meniscus.
8 weeks to a season people
-
Ump goal :banghead.
Miss our free then pay them one and give them 50 :banghead.
LOL thanks Sarge. What a miss from 12m out! :lol
-

Subbed out fairly quickly afterwards. Wouldn't be surprised if it's worse than that.

Fox footy not much better.
-
i was expecting the ABC to be horrendous as they use locals but they arnt too bad
-
Truely believe that if we get a good win today we can get some confidence and beat port and Essendon, but probably lose to freo leaving us 5-5 going Into the bye. Really important game.
Now im not saying that we are going to win, but confidence can go a long way.

Listening to Browny on 3aw.
-
Who is umpiring our forward line? Clear free to Grigg. Robbed again :banghead
-
Port turn over straight to Chaplin. Lines up for a shot but it falls 20m short and goes out of bounds for a throw-in. Port clear.
-
What was Lids thinking ?
-
Why don't you kick it for him ump ::).
47 - 26
-
Silly by Grimes no need for that gifted a free
And how did no one managed to touch that over the line
Poor defence
-
Grimes must have thought the umpire in our forward line was making the decision. That guy sees nothing.
-
Need to stand up and get one against the run, Tiges.
-
One thing can you say about Taylor Hunt and that is he certainly can tackle
-
Wtf McIntosh tackled without the footy
-
We can't get it out of our back-half.
-
Razor wants a review.
And it's touched by Ivan :phew.
47 - 34
-
Struth we need a goal
A F50 would do right now
-
Why wasn't that free to Griff?
-
Feel like tigers ticking all boxes but umps want a closer game :shh
-
Why wasn't that free to Griff?
It's a joke. One set of rules for us in our forward line and another for them in theirs.
-
Feel like tigers ticking all boxes but umps want a closer game :shh
New rule at Adelaide oval, you only need to be near the ball to get tackled.
-
On the full?
-
Backwards bloody handballs :scream.
-
One bad handball turn over :banghead
-
Thanks Ray :snidegrin.
-
Morris can you find a teammate.

Thats hard defending football at its best. :clapping They can just jump into the back of us & the umpires are all for them

I cannot even see the forward setup but I'm pretty sure there isn't one.

Harsh Willy, he's of limited ability.

watch the game properly both teams are pushing back hard. There aint anyone up forward for both side. ;D
-
Is it just me or is there a hint of umpiring rubbish going on tonight?
They are all Port
-
The lack of rotations is hurting us. We've already used our sub with Vickery going down early and Houli was off for 8 minutes with a wrist in that qtr.
-

Actually disagree
They threw everything at us for just one goal

Who gets the 3 votes today ? Cant figure it out
Big Ivan by a long way
Basically been a one man show after Ty went down
He's lead as he always does from the front
reckon jack might steal em.

This will forever known as the "Dooks Revenge" match.
Worried now that the Blues maybe targeting Dimma ;D

Awesome win

Fantastic effort Tigers
90k for Deamtime

Jack was great he'd get my 2 votes but Ivvy was something special today
-
Who gets the 3 votes today ? Cant figure it out
My top 3:
Miles .... set up the game early on that gave us the 3-4 goal gap we held for most of the game.
Ivan
Jack
Dusty stood up in the middle in the last and created 2-3 goals through smart play.
-
Time for dinner and nice celebratory beer me thinks

Losing vickers had an effect........
-
Dare I say it but Hardwick & co have out coached Himkley & co
This. It was written everywhere over the field.
We beat Collingwood on effort. Beat Port on tactics AND effort.
What has happened in the last two weeks? This kind of performance beats teams like Geelong, Melbourne and maybe Footscray.
-
Votes for me:
3 - Jack: the difference in front of goal that both sides needed tonight, and was everywhere. Backline, mid, wing and forward. Huge work rate!
2 - Maric: carried the ruck load after Vickery went down (who had been a solid backup btw). Pity he didn't jag a goal - would have got my 3 votes if he nailed one of those but probably kicking tired and the occasion didn't call for a sympathetic nervous system response.
1 - Martin: gave us the kind of drive forward in the last quarter that we so desperately needed in the 3rd. Was a big contributor in the crunch.
Very disappointed with Cotchin again, which is a shame after a couple of huge performances. Bloke was completely nullified by a retiring fossil, albeit a great run-with player. Wanted to see Cotchin break the tag or at least go deep and turn Cornes into a defender.

its telling us all that the players are learning to play together & rely on each other :thumbsup

We applied a lot of pressure and it was probably our best game of the year but to be fair..
Port played no where near their best and were horrible missing easy kicks and set shots they would always kick.
cant take anything away from the boys though as it was a great effort.

Yes, but if we played like that we'd be calling for Hardwick head and saying the players are all duds.

after 1/4 time against the pies we nearly eliminated pressure causing forward handballs to stationary players
i listened on the radio today so i cant say for sure, but we had 205 kicks to 143 h/b . Compare that to the north game where we had 178 of each
-
I thought it was an exceptional performance. I love footy the way we played tonight. It wasn't pretty or fancy, it was just professional and tough, Port were never really in with a chance of winning I didn't think, lots of great performances today but special mention to the kid Menadue, kicked a clutch goal from 55 out and basically killed any Port Adelaide momentum that could have started. The defenders were terrific as well led by Rance again. Well done to them all and well done to Hardwick who clearly outcoached Hinkley tonight. Credit where credit is due :clapping
-
We never allowed Port to play their own game right from the start. l bet there are alot of very sore bodies from both teams after that. That was one of the hardest games l seen for along time. To stop a power scoring team like Port on their home ground & the crowd against us. This was a super effort by everyone. Hinkley had no answer. Gray & a few others stood out for them also but they were exhausted so much that they missed goals from being so fatigued. l'm so rapped for the team tonight. & to lose Vickery made no difference. Everyone worked hard. They all done their job to perfection. Well done lads :clapping :clapping :clapping

How did we think big Griff went tonight?
I think the bare minimum last week for Tyrone was 3 goals and 6 inside 50's.
I remember seeing his opponent Hombsch a few times??
Anyway that snap pass to Jack in the last quarter was Champagne football. :shh
Great win today. :gotigers

Played a good role. seen him limping at one stage maybe a knock to the knee but heard nothing yet. Anyone else see him limping during the game. Houli was also off for sometime but came back on & played well.

Alex Rance keeping Jay Schulz goalless was PRICELESS :snidegrin
-
So are we the real deal? Port pretenders? Our A game back? Or just another game between middle roaders.
-
:pillowfight
-
Not a game for the highlights reel.
But probably one of our best wins in a while. Up there with beating Sydney last year.
Absorbed so much pressure in that third quarter.
Big Ivan played his best game in ages - was magnificent .
-
Yep mat073. UnRichmond like in that we were so disciplined and stuck to the game plan. Where was this the three weeks prior to last week.
Need to back it up next two weeks on the big national stage. :thumbsup

Thought he was ok actually.
11 disposals, 7 of them contested, 5 marks, 3 inside 50's, 5 tackles and a goal. More contested possessions and tackles in one game than TV has had all year
anyhow, great win.. there was a hard edge about us today, laid 87 tackles, hoping its a sign of things to come :cheers

Tone, you cannot be serious! His opponent had 17 kicks, 5 handballs, 12 marks and 4 tackles. And IMO was their best player.
Without Jack our forwardline is stuffed. He is the only guy that kicks goals and most of the time he is helping out on the wings. We need guys that can hit the scoreboard and Griff just isn't the answer. TV is a lot of things but what he does do is hit the scoreboard.
How many times last night did we come out of our back line with nothing to kick to, Griff needs to be that guy but he was nowhere to be seen.
A few on here think Morris falls over all the time, take a look at Griff, he spends more time on the ground than he does standing. And it's not because he is moving to top speed it's because it's an easy option.
For a first round pick, in his 6th year, surely we can expect more from him?

So are we the real deal? Port pretenders? Our A game back? Or just another game between middle roaders.
The last bit. Good win between 2 6-10th spot teams

I think you'll find that he wasn't on that particular player all of the time as he was in the ruck giving Maric a chop out.
Hombsch got better after Vickery went off because Griff had to go into the ruck to cover him. I actually thought it was the first time that Griff and Tyrone worked well together. Pity Tyrone missed that goal that was set up with a great tap from Griff. Even though I bag Tyrone, he has stepped up in the last two weeks and just as the chemistry between the two was starting to blossom poor old Tyrone got that knee injury.

I liked when Hardwick shook hands & embraced Cornes after the match and Bobblehead Hudson on Fox Footy said "Hardwick was the in the (Port) box as an assistant in 2004" ...

Granted Griff wasn't on Hombsch when he was in the ruck. What did you think of his game saying all that?
I hope McBean can come in and play a roll this week. We simply need more goals from our key forwards.
4 from Jack, 2 from Griff, 2 from TV/McBean and 6 odd between the mids and HF and we win more games than we lose.

I thought Griff did his part for the team but no more than that. He needs to run harder into space and lose his man a bit more. Just a pass for the game. I still think Tyrone and Ben will play better together than on their own. Having said that, I'd like Reece McKenzie to eventually get a few games this year but he isn't getting regular stints in the twos for some reason so that may be unlikely. He has more upside than than many of our forwards. Liam McBean needs to hit the scoreboard. It is hard for forwards these days. Look at the number 1 pick, million dollar man Tom Boyd. How many goals has he kicked this year evenwhen the doggies have been playing well?

Watching smart replay, the first goal we got from Batchelor, McIntosh hits Morris on the lead and Pittard runs over the mark by about 20 metres!!!

But I didn't notice Dusty at all - apparently 2nd BOG

Not sure if covered here but on Facebook there is mention of Kane Cornes ignoring Choco when being congratulated on ground after the game by Hardwick and Lade, does anyone have some background to this?
-
No issue - they hugged before the guard of honour.

Personally I sneaked him in for 1 vote in my 3-2-1, behind Jack and Maric I think it was.
Definitely up there though. His efforts to drive the team forward into the attacking 50m in the 4th quarter were the difference.
