The more i listen to Bucks talking, the more I really like. Didn't really like him as a player but as a human and a speaker, I've really liked it. He doesn't get sucked into some of the more sensationalism that gets thrown around.
Yes but they didn’t Port has won every close game this year against Freo, Hawks,Saints,Bombers, Cats and Demons that’s the difference Hawks are on the rise I love the way they play and coached
So true Hawthorn laughing all the way to the finals with the Lloyd Meek deal. If Fyfe fumbling around next year I for one will not be watching it is embarrassing.
I think Geelong should tag JHF if anyone. Not only does he have major impact in games throughout the midfield and forward line but he doesn't have the patience to be tagged. Saw it against the suns where he had little to no impact, you could visibly see the frustration on his face. I think hes still abit premature for the games mental aspects which Geelong could pounce on.
@@alexerwin3262 Nah, I'd reckon throw either atkins or o'connor on him, theyve both shut down neale before, so they have more experience tagging than mullin
They’re too slow and don’t work hard enough. He’ll eat them up. Every game he’s learning still, more patient too. Finals fever for him which he’s made for. Good luck with that.
problem is you do that and Butters runs absolutely riot, 40 disposals and a massive amount of clearances. There midfields a Hydra, wines, rozee, butters, JHF, drew. tag one, another one runs riot. Butters has been tagged most of the year and wasn't in the showdown, a goal and 43 disposals. add on there midfield is good for about 5 goals a game or more now and mead is emerging, sweets looking really good, scary beast of a midfield
I’m not sure if it’s the coach or the match committee at Fremantle who’ve made poor team choices all year but whichever one it is needs to go. They’ve selected injured players over multiple games, used the top team to let players get back into form instead of playing in the reserves, and allowed aging players to hold spots in the team while leaving obvious in-form players out. When they do bring better players in they play them for a game or two before dropping them so they don’t get enough time at that level to acclimatise.
Bucks and Kane Malthouse tried that with Jason Cloke in grand final when Rocca was suspended in preliminary final against Port Adelaide he lined up at CHF against Lions when Molloy ex Lion misses out was a CHF it messed up team chemistry and structure when young Cloke was our 7th defender i bet Malthouse regrets that plan to this day Play the player in role he knows
Carlton "have bought into high end pressure." The Blues have won 2 out of their last 8 games with wins against North and Eagles. Made the finals due to the inability of Fremantle, Essendon and Dees 2 from 7, 1 from 7 and 1 from 6 respectively at the business end of the season. The Pies is the form team that would have been capable of knocking off the Lions at the Gabba.
Kano if you see this message - do watch the geelong west coast game - tom stewart sat on tim kelly (yes their best midfielder) the whole game before he went off injured
I will judge Ken Hinkley and Port Adelaide after the finals. We always do well in home and away but we haven't won a grand final Port Adelaide season starts now
Absolutely but from what I’ve seen of them the last 9 weeks is their game has changed and now they look more desperate and their intensity has definitely risen, they seem to have a never give up attitude now which I haven’t seen in them before
@@neilwales7543 lol, referring to a game from 16 years ago where I don’t believe anybody is still around at those clubs just shows the jealousy in you.
Here's a thought... Carlton make the 8 on percentage over Collingwood, the first club since 1981 to miss the finals with 52 points. Behind Collingwood, on 50 points, but a higher percentage than Carlton, is Fremantle. Collingwood had 2 draws, one of them was against Fremantle (round 11) In the last quarter of that round 11 game, Fremantle goaled from a contentious free, and a Freemantle player kicked a behind with the last score of the match. If NOTHING else changes anywhere in the competition, but one or the other of those events, what happens? Either Frementle is NOT paid that contentious free, and therefore does score, Collingwood win, and make the 8 by half a game over Carlton... or Jeremy Sharp kicks a goal (rather than a behind), Fremantle win, and make the 8 by percentage over Carlton. EVERY round is important!!
These two have a big omelet hanging off their face. Shame as they had strong connections to the PAFC. Asking Buckley "Can Port win the Premiership" borders on cringe worthy. The long pause before Buckley answered and the awkward look on both of their faces tells it all. Cornes and Bucks had written Port off a month ago on this very venue. Enjoy the omelet fella's.
First comment hawks win cup! Thats a first for all the people who thought we were tanking and a mess! The club attacked from allegations! 2nd youngest list doing this how good will they be with big trades next few years??🧡💛💪🏆🏆🏆🏆
@@paulmatters2641you're a fool if you think anyone takes those allegations seriously. If actual systematic racism happened, that club would be dragged through the coals and probably part with premiership points, money, sponsors, players, supporters etc. The fact is, no one is taking the allegations seriously and see it as a misunderstanding at best, money grab at worst.
The win by Footscray was not as good as many may think, GWS had no Bedford, Daniels, etc.. I think the hierarchy at GWS didn't mind losing this one, they have no fear of the Swans in Sydney. That's my conspiracy theory, that GWS are not worried at all losing to the Dogs and are now going against the Swans with Daniels and Beford rested. Speed is the key to winning this year, and Daniels and Bedford are key to the ball going fwd fast, the Swans are slower than the GWS at their best. I actually think that GWS could beat the Swannies in the first week of the finals. The Doggies could've won it anyway, even if GWS had fielded their best twenty-two. I think that match worked out very nicely for both teams. :)
it is pretty amazing that it's not that long since the supporters booed them off ...I think they were looking like missing finals at that stage and now they have finished second ..I'm a crows supporter and very envious ..I think as long as they win one final he's safe and even out in straight sets they look like a success story compared to our rabble of a club
If Ken wins just 1 final his job is safe, Port supporters need to have a good hard think about whether they’d prefer to have a coach like Ken that has one of the best win loss records out there and has been consistent with being competitive or would they prefer to take a chance on a new coach and risk becoming just like the Crows.
Man, I dont think either Geelong or Port will be that woried about taking on the winner of the EF, we beat em both previously Kane.....serious give it a rest, I wasn't there, so didn't boo, but it kicked the club up arse and its no coincidence in my mind it was a cry for help from the fans and it helped the players pull their heads out. Its you thats looking atupid, and the more you whinge the worse you look. The fans are the club, give them some respect, they paid for your big house mate.
Its because Geelong are one of the teams that have a true home ground advantage, Same thing happens every year. Geelong and interstate teams always finish high on the ladder, but when they play a good team in finals away from home, they crash out finals.
Hawthorn can be stopped. Their two recent losses were GWS who ran over them and erased a 5 goal defecit, and Geelong who demolished them by 10 goals. They will be found out by better quality sides. They are not getting past GWS/Swans in Sydney or Port in Adelaide. It's a tall order even getting past the bulldogs.
Already beaten gws and the bulldogs this year. And the 10 goal belting was at the God awful ground that is gmhba and without our best defender. (Not an excuse but is a big factor, would have been around 5 goal I think). We have showed that we can smash port in Adelaide (yes we chocked in the last quarter) but we were 40 points up so it's completely doable
@NoahBartlett-bo9px that only shows you cannot withstand top end opposition. You are beyond delusional. Port will play winner of gws vs Sydney in GF... the only outsider maybe is bulldogs. No one else is getting within miles.
@@LaVieDeReine86 How is that delusion? and how does that show we cant withstand top end opposition? We've beaten GWS, Brisbane and the Dogs already. GWS and Port beat us by 2 points and 1 point (port being bs because they didn't blow for time on). Geelong is always a close game and then sydney are really the only ones that i would say we cant beat. You can doubt if you want but dont be surprised if we go far into september.
Take Bucks’ comments about the character of Bont, the quality of his football and the way he carries himself, then replace Bonts name with Heeney and everything he said would still be entirely valid. His ineligibility for Brownlow is disgraceful, and I am desperately hoping he still polls top votes purely to have the AFL squirm with discomfort at their dreadful year of MRO decisions, perplexing let offs, and rubbish suspensions.
As a Swans fan I totally agree and hope you are right regarding Heeney's vote count. However I cant begrudge the Bont anything, the guy is super impressive on all fronts and would be a very deserving winner of the Brownlow just ahead of Paddy Cripps for me.
That Carlton game was a horrible game to watch IMO, worst of Sunday. They just kept kicking down the boundary line to a pack. No creativity. Port had one of the toughest runs home and won every game, let's go Power!!!
The way Port has played lately only validates the criticism from those Port fans 9 weeks ago. They was correct. Lol. Finally he created a plan b . So your comments are incorrect Kane. Lets get them comments from those port fans out 9 weeks ago. They stated clearly that they had faith in the Port group and stated they could win the flag. Contrary to Ken Hinkleys post match comments when asked if his team was good enough and his response was he will know by the end of the season. In other words he was to coward to be accountable with a yes or no. That's documented. So the port fans had more knowledge and confidence than Ken at that time and thats why they wasn't happy with him. Get your facts right Kane. .Now bucks has swung around too. Your both loosing credibility.
I think most of the problem with Ports form earlier this year was from the players and after the fans booed Ken it seem to wake most of the players up as they finally realised they are playing for Ken’s future. No doubt their game has changed since that even and they look more determined and have gained a never give up attitude. The only criticism I think Ken was deserving of is that he fails to be able to get the best from his players in big games but things look different now. True test is coming against Geelong
@@knight2425 good points you make could be true but I think he should have demonstrated skin in the game and in his team by having answered post match questions with responses showing knowledge and accountability. Both of which he failed with open ended answers like hel know how good his team is by the end of the year. That showed someone going for a ride and someone avoiding accountability not wanting to ever have something to be measured against. If they lose its the group if they win its all him. Lol anyone who's ever done anything can see straight thru that rubbish talk
@@ajaxcatch I don’t see that in him, you rarely see him speak bad about his team or his opponents. When you’re asked a question like that you have to be stupid to come out and say something like were a top 4 team because if you make it then you look cocky and if you don’t you look stupid. I think he speaks quite humble most of the times but we will see in the coming weeks what he and the team are made of
@@knight2425 that's right it's called having no.idea. hoping rather than calculating. No confidence to forecast in fear of looking stupid. He might get lucky now lol afl is a laughing stock
Agree with you, kane Booing was way over the top, considering he actually mot playing the game. He's the coach Yes The Players were the problems . Now seem to have straightened themselves up lets hope for Ken they dont f up and go out in straight sets 😅
They finished 5th mate, 5th plays 8th at home so thats a no brainer. I am a Carlton supporter and have no drama with that. We own them for last year and back in 2009. Third time lucky.
They ended up fifth on the ladder after the home and away season, so they'll play Carlton, who came eighth. They get to host the elimination final because they ranked higher than the Blues. How is that corrupt? That's just how it's always been done.
The more i listen to Bucks talking, the more I really like. Didn't really like him as a player but as a human and a speaker, I've really liked it. He doesn't get sucked into some of the more sensationalism that gets thrown around.
wow 3.5 mins on Port Adelaide this week. well done gents big improvement
Where are all the Flagmantle supporters complaining that Melb radio have ignored them all year - your ladder position answers your question btw
Crazy that if the Hawks had won one of those close games (that they should've won) against GWS/Port they would've finished 2nd.
Not true. If they beat port then yes, but they had beat just the giants, they'd have finished 3rd behind port.
Yes but they didn’t Port has won every close game this year against Freo, Hawks,Saints,Bombers, Cats and Demons that’s the difference Hawks are on the rise I love the way they play and coached
Not if they just beat GWS, they’d be 4 points short of port still
could say that about a lot of teams
Every team has games they "should've won"
Freo need to thank them for their contributions and move past Walters, Fyfe and Omera.
So true Hawthorn laughing all the way to the finals with the Lloyd Meek deal. If Fyfe fumbling around next year I for one will not be watching it is embarrassing.
