LMAO OX 

Who am I kidding.

I'm addicted to this rubbish up the arse.

Amusingly I believed I no longer gave an Edgar Brit.

Back up the dozer big man.

Everyone gives a Brad Pitt

Dimma's ok but Ken Hinkley is a gun. Port have based their game on gut running and ultra discliplined defense.  That's the way to achieve success in the AFL. We don't do that.
Did we get it right choosing Dimma ahead of Hinkley ?  I guess we weren't to know that defending wouldn't be a high priority under Dimma's gameplan ?

[gerkin greg]

I think Poort are a fairly crap defensive side

Their run keeps them in games

We schooled them easily last year on their home deck

"It's fraught with danger to look at one game and make assessment as to where we need to improve,"

True Gerk. I know it's only round 1 but we do leak goals in bursts. Happened all last year. Teams don't kick one or two before we respond. They kick  5, 6 or 7.
 I'm ok with Dimma for now but I love what Hinkley's been able to do. Port were an absolute basket case when he got there. They were getting beaten by 150+ points in some games under Primus. Was he that bad or is Hinkley that good ? They'll be a good side again this year. Top 8 certs I reckon. Maybe top 4 ?

[gerkin greg]

Primus was pretty bad and the club had become toxic, but Hinkley is good and he has inherited a talented crop and stable back room.

They should make the 8 again. They got swag.

[Coach]

Primus was worse than bad. Not his fault he was chosen as coach though. Port are in a bit of strife if Westhoff or Schulz go down. They'd still be a decent side but they need those two kicking about.

I reckon we should get Studley involved at Richmond. Give him a job.

FHO, sick of this idiot just sitting back letting th is happen every bloody year

Great call

If they'd have kicked straight different result.
While he sits back staring into space

Keep moaning while the rest of us celebrate a win, very impressive

[lamington]

Definitely let off the hook. They missed almost everything in front of goal. Definitely got outcoached in the 2nd half. Not to mention this is a Carlton squad with no Judd, Kruezer, and Walker. Would've went down in a horrible fashion had they been at full strength with the way we played tonight

[tony_montana]

Mick watches the game unfold, sees where they're losing it, plugs the holes and they work us over. We just stay in the same gear and hope to win. Dimma setup is and prepared better but got smashed in the coaches box on game day again.

[Judge Roughneck]

Hard wick doesn't often win the tactical battle

[Gigantor]

I don't think Dimma is to blame here .Not sure if Chocco is in the box with Dimma but if he is then Dimma has a shoulder to lean on who is very good in this area .so maybe the issue falls back on the players and what happens between their ears

[tony_montana]

Nah Choco isn't in the box, he's on the pine revving up the boys and sticking to his development coach role. Personally feel we are under utilising his talents, but he seems happy so who am I to judge?
