Wow.

Dogs lived to fight another day.

Port Adelaide completely gutted, completely shattered.

It's a good word, proud.

There's some integrity in our performance, it was a bit messy and so to hang in there and after you've dropped four in a row you're almost learning how to win again.

What was that 30-quarter time huddle like with Faggs?

What was his messaging going down to you boys?

Then they made...

They did.

What am I doing at this end of the ground?

Yeah, well, there's some obviously stuff that we don't understand.

Tom, you've got more knowledge than most of us on the situation.

But if you said the key metrics was around defence, what are they, 14 points off 18th for points against in defence.

So that's not a great starting point for them.

But they're in a...

they're clearly in a development stage and they're clearly, everyone knows, I think, everyone involved with this and seems to know exactly where they are with their development.

And it's still quite a way away from being able to turn a lot of those things around that you're talking about.

The interesting one is the player development.

Player development is really hard to measure when you're in a poor club.

That's right.
