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

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.

So are we the real deal? Port pretenders? Our A game back? Or just another game between middle roaders.

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
