SA Footy

Ammi Stadium Sunday 2.40pm

Which Port Side will turn up?

I'am tipping Carlton

Hopefully Carlton show up before 3 qtr time. Last game against Port at AAMI scared the crap out of me. Last qtr was brilliant though.
Very hard to tip a winner for this one. Port should come out firing after the embarrassment of last week and the Blues haven't travelled well this year. Hope fully there's no skeletons from our drubbing at the hands of the Cows earlier this year.
All that said, I'll be very dissapointed if we don't get up by a couple of goals. GO YOU BLUES!!!!!!!!!!

Carlton have good record against the Power to Lose!
My tip is the Blues to break they YOYO cycle. 11-20

Carlton to win by 50+ points.

I hope Port get flogged, they do not deserve to win and do not deserve to make the finals.

What a ridiculously stupid comment.
Please explain WHY they don't deserve to win and WHY they don't deserve to make the finals if they happen to win more games than 8 other sides.

because they are an absolute rabble, sick of seeing them lose to other useless teams.

I beat if Port make the finals, more records will be broken, not good records either......

Way to go, HOF. You are just the kind of supporter Port needs at the moment.... NOT! If you want to be negative and fickle about your club(s), there's another team in town that deserves supporters like you.

Does not change the fact that if they play better than Carlton on the weekend then they deserve to win.

Most of Ports embarrassing losses have been interstate. Other then the second showdown and the saints game, ports home form has been pretty good.

I'm tipping them to win this one.

Unfortunately, can see the "good" Port coming out this week and firing up and beating the Blue Boys.

But having said that I'll hedge my bets and say if the "good" Carlton come and play we'll beat Port and comfortably too.....

No change

Apparently Cloke rocked up in his Northern Bullants gear for the VFL game today but was pulled at the last minute. May be a late change for Carlton if that's the case. Unsure who he would be replacing though

Stupid comment Ruben........

Final Score

Port 9.13.67
Blues 18.13.121

Port raise the white flag again
Embarrassing effort. A few blokes must be gone again after what they dished up today.
Brogan for one needs to worry more about his clangers than trying to be the tough guy.. seeing him give Judd an earful was laughable! I'm sure Chris would be happy to compare records with Dean.

Spot on, you can put a few more on that list of blokes that are good on the lip but aren't as diligent in backing it up with a bit of action.

Embarrassing actually.

Yes i saw that & thought exactly the same thing, what was even better was Judd showed no emotion what so ever as though it went in one ear & straight out the other. Its that laughable the big Thunder Head just embarrasses himself time & time again.
