Was at the game. The defensive negative game Buckley coaches is deplorable. Make no mistake, we will lose so many more than we win with this kick sideways, don’t get hurt on the rebound, negative shit. Take out the forest 10 minutes and really, they controlled the game.

Going off "Half Cocked" is just utter garbage. We kicked 5 of our goals in 9 minutes of footy. First 3 goals came in the first 7 minutes and our last 2 came in a 2 minute flurry. Another 110 minutes elapsed and we kicked 3. We are coached to play crap like passing sideways, backwards and every other which other than FORWARD. DeGoey took mark early in the last on the wing and McCreery was streaming goanward in the forward line and DeGoey kicked sideways ,we lost the ball and Port scored.Most of ports goals came from our mistakes and just about every team in the league springboard OUT of our forward line and it has been like this for years. If Josh Thomas is the inspiration on keeping the ball in our forward line then I must not be able to see it.This was the same guy who let Daniel Rich get 16 last qtr kicks against the Lions and deliver the final kick that saw us sunk by a point again. I say BOLLOCKS!!! |

Really crappy decision by match committee. And how is it that other clubs can find smart, skillful, quick and daring indigenous players like Cameron, Rioli, Pickett and the rest and we have not one. |
Completely agree regarding Coxy. He would've at least kept Alir occupied! As you say, then creates space for the other forwards to operate in.
Forward line was so congested, especially with the Brown brothers clogging it up with no benefit.  |
Cox must come in, i rate him over Cameron, and he does take two defenders, he would have kept Allir very busy today, and Cox can be accurate in front of goals. Sooner Jamie Elliott is back the better too, hes missed bigtime up forward. |
Absolutely Piesnchess. I know Mason can drop marks, but with the addition of McCreery, there's a smaller player who could gobble up the ball from the ground.
Browns and JT out and Bianco, Coxy and Murphy in. |

Whatever, one lousy point is bugger all, Port are a top team, both sides had players out. Howd u like to be a saints fan, what would you say bout a 111 point loss like the saints had ?? Jeez, some fans here whinge like buggery, one point loss tells me we were right in it.

I still blame his fresh air kick off ground in goal square, in 2019PF, as instigating that loss which cost us a GF gig.
Most of these players will never get another opportunity for the remainder of their careers now; not at this club anyhoo. |
He did it again in the first qtr today.Ball fell into his lap in the square and he was clear and missed the ball. He then got the ball later in the game ran into an open goal and from 25 mtrs out, passed to Miochec who had 2 gorillas hanging off him , rather than kick. certain goal..Another easy Port clearance followed.

F#ck off Buckley with that game style.
I'm not going to another match, nor signing up again as a member if we continue with these muppet coaches.
So we as members don't have voting rights you say? Then get used to 15k crowds at the G. People are already voting with their feet. Even Brereton was tearing his hair out with our negative slow play.
Yeh I'm p#ssed. F#uck off with the corporatisation of our club, with Buckley's corporate-style spin, with outright lying about injuries and the shameless way they try to make you re-sign.
The place needs a clean out from the bottom up, and the rebuild must be true to the club's grass roots identity.
Enough of this bullsh#t. |

Sentiment was the same at the ground. Walking to the train, in the presidents, in the seat. Buckley kills this team. If we play positive footy we win that game. We won the stats with of a good indicator you’re in the game. Then why did we lose? Can only be the method.

What utter garbage. The game and port were there for the taking and we fluffed it as we do week in week out and will continue to do while we're still coached by an idiot who thinks that going backwards and sideways is the way forward.
Nathan buckley is responsible for everything that's wrong with this team. Any coach with half a brain would have called his players to take the game on and attack, attack, attack. But not nathan. He says go slow, go back, go sideways and hope that it miraculously ends up in the fwd line. Nothing will change until we dispose of our delusional narcissist coach and his merry yes men. This is their mess. |

| Glad that Tay made it through the game. I was worried that he'd come back too soon at one stage when he left the ground and went down into the rooms. His ferocity is great to see. Next team captain for sure. |

I would add Wilson onto the pluses. He was much much improved today ( which wasnt a big ask ) Interesting they stuck with him over Keane.
He’s not overly agile but he did most things right for a second gamer. |

Yeah thats the way.You must be sick of eating sand. Just a win would do and just play football like every other team can. We are poorly coached and the entire coaching staff need to be let go. We've kicked 13goals in 2 full games of football and 12 of them have come in less than 20 minutes of 240 minutes of football.Get your head out of the sand pit and let that sink in for a while and then you can give some thought to our "Small Forwards" in Thomas and Brown and count the goals they've kicked this year. 3 is the answer and that's between them and McCreery has tripled his tally of both of them. I may not be a genius but I seem to be brighter than you it would seem.
