Any news on the sub and interchange??

This will be a great test without Roey, lets hope for a good effort and get as close as we can.

Would be lovely to see paddy and Hugh pick up where they left off.
Got a feeling Bruce will have a good game today

Grrrr Kicking skills again. Sounds like Port is getting free too easily.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

Pressure game, frantic playing on by Port....

Just need to stay in touch while it is so hot.

Westhoff...why does that shitpot always smash us..

Hmm. Hickey drops a chest mark forward. He needs to be strong with marking to have 2 rucks playing.

why have umpires being paying free kicks for tackles that don't provide prior opportunity but allow other tackles to be completed for 180 to 360 rotations without any penalty? Weird!

It might have been the whack across the chin from the defender with his back to the ball.

But he could have been stronger in other contests.

Panicky dumb fumbling football Saints...players spoiling each other in marking contests. Port just sitting off marking duels.waiting for ball to be spoilt forward. Mids need to lift, ruckman in each others road. Terrible start hopefully things will improve?

Gee Bruce has hit a rough patch in form. First touch was still without a disposal!
