The harsh reality facing us is that our rebuild has been a failure.
If all of the players on our list were available and we dropped the players from tonight's side who are not up to final 8 standard, we would have trouble fielding a side.
Port Adelaide have recruited skilled ball players, just like the Hawthorn power sides of recent years. What were our selectors thinking?
With this current list we are destined to be amongst the "also rans" for the forseeable future.

9.14 feck me! I was out so I only watched bits and pieces of the 1st and 2nd qtr on my phone. All I saw was us bust a boiler to get in I50 only to kick a behind and they went I50 and kicked a goal. Nothings changed in that regard Id say.

Another oh so familiar performance. Port took the foot off the throat in the last, the umpires decided to even up the stat sheet and paid us free kicks like they were going out of business and they still cruised in by 5 goals.
So many 'B' graders in this side. Not smart enough or good enough. Brisbane will give us a football lesson next week.
