Captain Travis Boak says it’s time for some home truths about Port Adelaide’s wobbling AFL season.

Boak blasted Port’s work rate in Sunday’s loss to Brisbane as “non-existent” and challenged his teammates to examine their efforts.

“We need to have a good, hard look at ourselves … what we produced is nowhere near what we expect,” Boak told reporters on Monday after Port slipped to a three-four win-loss record.
