I definetely think we can and will win. Will be enjoying a schnitty somewhere before the game and some light refreshments. Some of the supporter groups have organised a function at the Strathmore so that might be a goer...

Adelaide Oval, Broges, avoid wooden-spoon.
Plenty of motivation.
But can we back up from last week?
Young teams are generally wildly inconsistent...

Yep, it sure did.
Anyway, like our chances here. We had more than a sniff on Sunday and the Dee's struggled to chake off a tired GC team full of kids.
We might just give the timber cuttlery to them this weekend. Fingers crossed.

History in the making at adelaide oval. The first afl game in history at the venue, something ill be able to tell the kids... "i was there"
Anyhoo......ive waited for this game for a while.....season 2011 finally closes for port adelaide and the quicker we can focus on 2012 the better.
We should win this. Melb have a bloody poor record in adelaide, and last week we showed in patches we can play some really good footy, im just hoping we can close out the game this week if we are in the same circumstance.
Please port, rid yourselves of the spoon this sunday, sign my man crush butcher and it will be a happy ending to a horrible season.
CARN THE POWER!

c'mon port give your supporters 4 quarters like the 3 good ones you gave us against the bombers. great to see footy at adelaide oval i think the power should play all there game on the hallowed turf from now on. with the crowds we get to our home games it would be a much better game day atmosphere!
go the power!

Geez, if I didn't just get smashed by bills, I'd be over for the game.
Hope we get a big crowd for our "Grand Final".
What's Adelaide Oval's capacity at the moment?

Would get nearly 40,000 in, I would think?
Obviously not going to get that but I'm expecting high 20k's.

Happy that the Power won today, but fair dinkum, if they couldn't win that game well then there's no hope for them.
Unfortunately, from what i've seen, the Power will be fighting it for the spoon next year again.

Yesssssss!
Atmosphere looked and sounded electric on TV.
Quite enjoyed Special Bruce getting all nostalgic and reminiscing about the old SANFL days in his commentary.
Even with a reduced capacity during construction, gotta play some more games over the next two years.
Maybe against teams we traditionally don't get big crowds with...

Atmosphere was great, but it was the first game there.
On the Hill in the sunshine, perfect for it.

One of my better performances for the year.
Got a little tired of the Super Dry, but I battled on as all good players do.
