Anyone watch Dees lose to Power?

Only five minutes here, five minutes there. Not enough to form any definite opinions of either side.Originally Posted by Markwebbos
I watched a fair chunk of it. Port played a very quick game and beat Melbourne on the spread. Their debutantes were all very impressive. Gawn was targeted with some rough stuff early and really struggled to have his usual dominance.
Port's youngsters -Duursma, Butters , Rose and Marshall did well. Watts had a good game off half-back. Port ran on a lot of the time, except when leaving the back 50 later in the game. Everyone looked really tired by the third quarter. There was a fair bit of fumbling. I wish we had Justin Westhoff. It's interesting that the new rules haven't brought high scores this round. I don't think there was a hard tag on Viney and Oliver, but they were outclassed.
Baz, they run a little deeper than that. Sidebottom , adams , treloar de goey, GRUNDY, potential - Moore , Stephenson , COX

- The new rules are not producing the higher scoring projected by the AFL.
- The 2018 draft class is looking exceptional. I can't remember the last time so many rookies have played so well in debut games.
- The first round is always hard to predict. For punters, probably a good round to take all the underdogs. Hopefully not the under Dogs we play today.
- Clarko is worth 5 first round draft picks.
- Pressure and fitness still king.
- I can never remember the 1st game skill level from prior years, but skills look way down so far. Maybe dropping to 2 pre-season games has some impact.
As a Hawthorn hater, I'm not enjoying what the Crows are dishing up. Their forward half play has been woeful. Constantly missing targets and only three forward fifty tackles, by three-quarter time. Ugghh!
Great to see Port beat Melbourne. Just shows what an expert David King is with his statement that Melbourne will be undefeated this season, what an expert!!!
Brisbane are about to beat the Premiers.....
I suspected they might be a bit dangerous this year. Good start!
Post edit: Lions by 44 pts! Bloody hell!
14 goals to 2 after quarter time! Wowsers!!

Did he really say that? That's a shocking call. Goodwin is too poor a coach for that.
Richmond are the only favourite to win so far this round. Every other game has been an upset.....
Eagles were far worse than us. Very passive with no semblance of a fightback.Brisbane are about to beat the Premiers.....
