I'm usually a later starter than most unless it's a finals bbq, even on cruises I kick off after lunch unlike most as I go too hard and fast. ;)

Also interesting that Geelong's players are on average 5kgs heavier than the Powers, despite being very close in height Not sure if this is an advantage or disadvantage for either side but that's a fair diff. Maybe it's just middle aged drift matching up with the age differential. ;)

Sorry Wedgie but
'' If the Cats are to win again on Thursday, they will need to overcome an underwhelming record in the first week of finals which has seen them lose six of their last seven such matches.''
Would have been all over Geelong but that utter pissweak performance v Richmond a few weeks ago would leave me very unconfident.
Will still whack $5 on a draw, hard to pick but that Richmond game ................

Don't be sorry mate, I'm not confident at all, just looking forward to going and seeing hopefully a good game which will have a great atmosphere thanks to it being a Port home game, very lucky to be going and most of Australia if not the world would be jealous. See ya Sunday mate, let it be known I tried to get Fish to get tix as close to the smokers areas as possible for you. ;)

Port to win tonight, picking that they will come out and have a blistering 1st 1/4 to set up a 7 goal win with Dixon to do a Hawkins and kick a bag :D
