Match Report |
Today had to be the absolute "pits"
- to be beaten by Glenelg and to follow up with a loss at home against South is
deplorable. I couldn't complain about changes from last weeks side as all the ones I was looking for
happened.
So what then? -
The simple fact is that this current side is in my opinion the worst in 20 years. I have never known a Port side with so many who are either not up to the standard or not prepared to do the hard things.
As with the game last week we could have won
without ever looking capable of it. Two inexperienced
kids in ruck should have reminded a few of just how good they have had it with
Rhino - and caused them to increase their work rate accordingly.
Didn't happen!!!!!!.
I couldn't stay for the presentations but feel sure it would be the same as last week
- i.e no awards. I don't want to give best players but I liked a lot about Brett Eberts game. Matty Lokan kicked 4 and Tommy Carr gave us a bit of grunt when he went into the midfield in the second half.
Steven certainly tried many moves and at one stage it looked a bit like the old "forwards go back etc." I think we are at a real low point and the good news is that it can only be up from here
- particularly as players return (try fitting Rhino, Ackers,
Waite, Bamford, Ellen and McDowell into your side for
starters) but it won't just happen without a real change in attitude!!!
Enough of this -
what about the Ressies again!! 70 odd point winners and playing like a real cohesive unit IN SPITE of the
number of changes to the side every week. It surely is no coincidence that Leysey is out there with THAT voice and directing
traffic. Sort of reminds you of how it used to be with the seniors with the Ginevers, Steeds etc.
Anyway it is crunch time now
- no more excuses! We are either a top 4 side or a bottom 4 side. You the players must decide.
Until next week against West.........regards Lynton.
