The difference today was intensity, at the opposition and the ball.

The change was purely and simply above the shoulders.

If it has anything to do with Hardwick then he should be sacked immediately as he has failed to produce it in his side when it counted.

I suspect it had more to do with the players being free of expectations that can drag down the mentally weak.

Can't handle being the hunted so they are happy to be the hunter. Pretty standard RFC practice when  finals are out of the equation

Port been playing beyond themselves and peaked halfway thru the season.
The transition to consistency was never gonna happen.

Will finish 8th.

I disagree, at the ground I thought he was out coached.

Port reshuffled at half-time and set up with Westhoff loose in the third term, Riewoldt was gesturing to the bench before the play started to get them to sort it and Vickery called the runner out to talk to him.

It still took 12 mins for our structure to change, in the meantime Port added multiple goals.

Great post.

Another thing is we played better whenever the game reverted to one-on-one .

Funnily enough, pretty much the same thing occured last night in the VFL side's win over Geelong.

Hopefully the club is finally learning the reason why they call one-on-one/contested football "finals football" and will take it into next year.

..oh and our midfield is so much better without Thomas in it.....and Hamspud's absence of course speaks for itself...

What an utter stuffing waste of two spots they are.

if gary ablett was at richmond and did his shoulder...

would dimma tell to keep playing or get the op?

dont forget the crowds...
how naieve, abletts doctors advice was to have the op or risk complications if he doesnt.
in other words miss 7 games this yr or at 30  risk what career you have left.
if their coach had any say in the decision id be totally  surprised. hardwick would follow doctors orders. when we get the daggers out we blame em for everything and anything.

 it would be impossible to get a balanced debate on anything hardwick on this site atm. seems atm hes not only the coach, but head recruiter, list manager  fitness guru club doctor and id not be surprised to hear someone blame him for poor boots or something.

if we blame him for everything and anything, the only thing that will happen is those who are responsible get away scott free.

So playing deledio cotchin Morris etc. with injury had zero percent of having a negative impact on their football life?

Coughlan comes to mind.

I certain hope you are right

The much clearer examples are Maric, King and Morris.

That's because GWS weren't first to the ball, they were scragging our players just waiting for them to take possession

If he gets his way again we'll have Ryan O'Keefe and Shaun Higgins on the list next year too. Whoever takes over from Hardwick in 2016 is going to inherit a whole bunch of old rejects from other clubs reserves. Gonna be a long road back
