Quarter time

Pies 5.5.35, Port 4.3.27.

We wasted opportunities in the first half of the quarter, then Port lifted their work rate. Ball spent most of the quarter in our half of the ground, we should have done more with it.

[Crazypie]

Yeah because our AFL listed players keep turning the ball over/giving away free kicks/50m penalties... No one knocking the door down for AFL in that qtr.

McLarty has probably looked closest but not taking anyone out of the AFL side.

Murphy shows good signs looks like a player in a year or 2.

[stui magpie]

Scrappy contested footy around the middle of the ground, Port get it out, run and pass into the forward line,. set shot Goal.

35 to 33.

[stui magpie]

Intensity has gone up a notch, contested pack football, ball moving up and down the wing, ball squirts out to Galluci, goals on the run from outside 50.

Pies 41 to 33

Jpk in the centre, pass out to the wing, Heatherington running, pass to Fas. Set shot from a tight angle, behind.

[stui magpie]

Fas on the wing, low pass to Crocker who misses, Fas follows up, handpass out, then onto Galluci, snap Goal.

48 to 33

[MightyMagpie]

Sounds like Fas has been pretty lively?

[Crazypie]

[stui magpie]

Lot of contested footy, teams taking turns to break out of the packs and bang it long forward to almost empty forwardlines. It's UFC ping pong
