Murph was BOG for us tonight by far! |
Surely that has been buried for the best part of 12 months? Has been best 22 all season at least.. |
There were still calls for Frampton to come in at his expense this week. No disrespect to Peter.

Winning is getting to be a habit, no matter who we play.
Elliott...what a genius |
He was probably the difference in the end. Any other player in his place, and we lose. Some Port kid fluffed a mark 2 mins from the end after Jamie had taken the mark and iced a toigh set shot.
All that, and … that handball to Taylor Adams in the square. That was almost moving. It is what greatness looks like. |

Murph is a lock in our backline. He's getting better and better and is getting taught the game by Moore and Howe. He played an excellent game tonight.

Don’t give him air time mate. Support the team your own way. |
Freedom of speech! Clearly you don’t understand the Second Amendment! Why do some supporters on this site worry so much about what others say? I find the so called negative posters the most constructive, honest , passionate, and committed fans. The rose coloured glasses types are boring ! They drive me to the drink 🍺. I pay my taxes and I’ll have my opinion! I pay my memberships and I’ll say what I like . "perceptive fellow" are obviously jealous of fans who criticise the Team when the players need it to motivate them! |
Clearly you don’t understand that Freedom of Speech is the First Amendment, and is not recognised in Australia, as it’s not our Constitution. Good try though. |

Dude, if we had a like button you’d have 1000 likes. |
Yet I’m the one with two yellow cards. Pathetic, that the same crap goes on every week in the game day thread. |
I went there once, never again. It should be called the clueless corner. |
Yea, I think I’m going to have to ban myself. Luckily the rest of our games are in Melbourne so I’ll be there instead of the game day thread. |

As you say freedom of speech . . .
It works both ways. |

They threw the kitchen sink at us. Butters, Rozee and Houston couldn’t have played much better. JDG was affected by illness, Naicos was quelled to some degree. Defence was huge especially Murphy, Steele BOG, Elliott clutch and Pendles great again.
I reckon we beat these guys comfortably at the MCG in September.

I'm in awe of this team. The never say die attitude is at GOAT levels.
This is a significant win away from home in hostile territory against a fellow premiership contender. It was far from perfect and Port gave us a tough game, but we also showed that we're capable of absorbing extreme pressure and turning the game on its head within a short space of time.
Murphy was the rock of our defence. Saved us multiple times through the second and third quarters when we were under siege by Port's attacking players. He was BOG for mine.
Elliott is the ICEMAN! A player who can kick a goal from anywhere in the most clutch moment of the game and do it on a regular basis shows it's no fluke. What a player he's been for the club.
Brilliant 200th by Tay Adams, and a wonderful selfless act by Jamie to give him an easy open goal and enjoy the spotlight for a brief moment.
I've never seen anything like it. I'm still in awe as to how this team keeps producing this so frequently. We've been blessed as supporters since Fly became our coach.
Onto the arch-enemy next Friday night

We just “tore them apart”…
Port Pidgeons just lost their grand final.
Rested 7 players last week 🤣🤣🤣🤭🤣
Maybe should’ve rested all 22 ya Pidgeons.
Magpies win running at 75%!!!
Go Pies!!

12 out of the last 16 when trailing at 3QT. I reckon it’s in most teams heads now and while it’s not good for us supporters, the players are at ease when we are behind and within 5 goals at the final break.

Huh?
Lotta posts 'bout it here. And talk on TV. Daisy Thomas reckons 1 week. |
Kath whatshername, with Ben Dixon and Brad Johnson. “It was just a slap” said with the others grinning, insinuating nothing in it. Geezus, anyone who’s been slapped across the ear knows how hard it hits you. Intent is everything, regardless of the other player getting hurt or not. Either the MRO is fair dinkum about protecting the head, or they’re full of shit.
