This game will be an interesting battle between the western suburbs rivals, with thr Bloods of course on the improve this year and the Maggies continuing what has been a poor year.

Westies would have to go in as favourites but Port Adelaide will be welcolming back Jeremy Clayton from suspension for this clash. I think the Bloods will be too strong for Port.

My tip - West by 5 goals

Hope you are right Phil

Also hope that Glenelg do the right thing and knock over Norths to get us within half a game.

Massive game in the context of the season for West, especially if North and/or Eagles go down, would expect them to be too strong for Port, but would also expect Port boys would take a bit of pleasure out of shaping the final 5........hard to pick......so maybe another draw at Richmond ;)

Would love to see Stevie Morris play on him. Could be some fun viewing. I know James Boyd didnt enjoy his company last week.

With Thomas (Susp) and Cassisi injured - will Ebert be back in a power jumper along with salopek?

You would think so, he was handy for the Maggies on the weekend without been brilliant. One of their better players.

I would expect him to play for the Power this week

It would be great to have Ebert and Clayton alonside each other this week though

Please explain. Also has any Westies supporter seen the replica jumper at all?

Westies playing for a hell of alot this week, a win should see them 1 point plus percentage behind North, unless North find a miracle from somewhere and beat the Bays, reckon that and the Cupido factor may well see Westies over the line in this one

The % will more than likely mean nothing for Westies and North fans. The draw we have will mean we are either infront or behind the Roosters on the ladder regardless of both sides %.

I would think the jumper would be similar to the one worn for the week that our hall of fame opened. Red and black horizontal stripes

He may have a point to prove, but the PAMFC was probably the worst club for him to be at because he was never going to get a good run in the League side with Meiklejohn ahead of him. West was always a good fit for him with inexperienced ruck stocks in their squad.

Given my AFL allegiance, i do hope he is BOG this week though.

The Hall of Fame jumper had red and black stripes, but in a shallow 'V' shape. the 1909 guernsey, I think, is with horizontal stripes, as you say.

I've got one of the Hall of Fame guernseys worn on the match day :)
