I never stop watching

Now I hope this website doesnt get bogged down with taunts about fair weather supporters blah blah blah


The fact is the first 2.5 quarters were pure shit

Then we got a sniff and bingo guys like Russell looked like completely different players

Amazing what a little confidence does doesnt it


Still plenty to work on

But a great win


Ports aspirations for a flag ended there tonight

They put the cue in the rack a tad early

We are allowed to be critical arnt we


Great win and i hope guys like Russell can gain some confidence in themselves to become more consistent players

Plenty of work still to be done.

None! I had collingwood supporters at my place cheering the navy blue on. Flower they must hate port. Must be because Port supporters are rivaling the fiths as the biggest ferrals in the comp. Or maybe because Port is taking Collingwood's crown of being almighty chockers!

I was far from pleased with the first three quarters, no denying that. But I always watch the full game and I'm so glad I did today. I'm still shaking!!!

I called a supporter in from outside having a smoke when we were 11 points down in the last quarter, so even though he gave up on us he came in from the cold and enjoyed watching the win.

After 70 years of barracking for us he probably deserved to see the win. :-D

I was at the Club and there were about 8 of us to start. Come the start of the 4th?....then there was me. When we kicked a couple in a row I shouted a bit and clapped a bit and before I knew it they were all back...

Great day!

Tractor Girl : Don't know why you want to keep watching it. You're getting pumped anyway.

Tractor Boy: Says nothing.

Tractor Girl: Guess i'm watching BB in the bedroom then.

Tractor Boy : Again nothing is said.

Meanwhile we win and Tractor Girls sits in the bedroom watching BB. And is welcomed back into the Lounge Room after the Song. :P

To stop watching at any statge is like getting up and leaving early...
I never leave early and i never switch off /Over...

Or maybe the filth supporters realised that Port would have been a greater threat in terms of finals' positions.

I was in an empty public bar with my wife and I went out to the smoking area to tell a Carlton supporter that we were down by 11 so he'd better come back and watch closely - instead of looking at the big screen from where he was... (You couldn't see the top of the screen there - so he knew we'd kicked goals, but didn't know the score)....


We thanked the bar man for not shutting the public bar when there were only 4 of us in there and he could have been used in the other bar....


The lesson of brotherhood - we'd never met - but he yelled out "go the blue boys" as soon as he saw the shirt - and said we were going to win... so we were in it together no matter what - and we shared a joyous hi 5 afterwards....

I watched the whole game, as usual, but I almost stopped recording it. Lucky I didn't, that way I got to watch again as those piss weak Port supporters left early.

:lol:

1 minute 30 left, they're 5 points down and out they go.

WTF?

It's not like traffic's a problem - what, they'd make it home to Elizabeth in four minutes rather than the normal 5?

SOFT LIKE THE CLUB THEY 'SUPPORT'
