At this point I am not expecting to see the game live, but I cannot confirm that. I can only hope that we perform as we did last week.

We lose with basically the last kick of the match.

I'm not going to enjoy the replay.

So near and yet so far.

We didn't get the 4 points, but we'll get plenty of respect and belief from that. We took it right up to the ladder leaders.

I am devastated by that. Hate the umps, hate Dal Santo!

That was an unfair ending. We deserved that win and I’m pissed off but we looked out on our feet at the end. We had to keep attacking, it was unfortunate we had crap attempts at marking at the end

You are not going to win them all.

But if you play like that often enough, you will win more than you lose.

It sucks, but i'll take that effort every week.

Absolutely. Couldn’t fault anyone today. Loved the spirit that’s developing. There was a weak act by a Port player in the second quarter and a few of our younger players took it right up to him. Bit of luck needed, but I guess they missed some sitters as well.

You'll enjoy the replay. Just turn it off when the final siren blows.

Also Harry gets a lot of free kicks paid against him in our F50 - why is that? It he all arms and legs like a giraffe or does he play in a dodgy manner?

Hate losing like that, but not for the first time this year.

We were in it from the start to the final 30 seconds.

Great 4q effort with few passengers. That's what's so pleasing.

One of the best games from Plowman. He found the confidence to be creative. Importantly at the right moments. Hope he can continue that work.

Walsh's best game for a while. His coverage and possessions favoured him.

Hopefully we'll get better at these close one's sooner rather than later. It's cost us 2 W's.

Disappointing end to a very entertaining competition.

4th game of ours this year decided by 3 points or less. - We are 2-2 in them.

Why didnt they maintain possession when the 1min board went up? Why kick to an uneven contest (Gibbons). Lack of awareness.The last 5 minutes felt like they were spent manufacturing a loss. That hurst more than a flgging IMO.
