The Chol shank 25 metres out very costly, him and Georgie both exponents of the most horrendous clanger kicks at the club.

Try 15 metres out. Top of the goalsquare and missed everything.

Aside from Griffs, our other tall forwards were useless today. Chol and Moore might as well not have turned up. Ivan as we know is finishing up. Hampson back to grabbing thin air in the last quarter. They were a liability today and Port Melbourne just ran it out of our forward line at will.

That's why we play smalls around Jack at AFL level.

In any case, we were sloppy all day. Explains why most of our more experienced AFL listed players at this level are playing VFL. If we were cleaner and showed more composure going inside F50 and for some effort inside F50 as well as not shanking set shots then we would've should've could've won.

Port wanted it more and deserved the win  Their resilience is incredible.

In the end I think they were cleaner with their skills.

Griffiths is still a big mummy's girl he really should be playing soccer.

Lennon was useless most of the game although our forward entries were rubbish compared to Port.

I think our players should be disappointed in that they are full time professional players and lost to a bunch of part timers that had the heart to win at all costs and never give up.

The club that keeps giving.

This was a game for Miles to step up he was missing big time considering he may have a chance to come in.

Love the development of Bolton, Garthwaite and Stengle. Even Moore has come a long way.
Another preseason and they will be better.

I heard that they will re-rookie Child.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.
