Showdown 27

[Thiele]

Who will win . Hopefully the Crows

[hearts on fire]

I think the Power will stun the "Premiership Favourites".

last week, before the Crows played St.Kilda, all the Crows fans were saying they were going to win.

Don't know...hopefully Adelaide....

Anyone going, watch out for the fat bastard wearing a red Auskick jacket on the Oval at half time, I'll be out there making some divots....

Are you for real?

yes, infact, i am dead set.

Would take a pretty blinded supporter to have thought that ... Not sure how that equates to Premiership favouritism however

Slight difference between saying we will win one specific game compared to Premiership favourites..........

Its like all Power people saying we will make the top 4 before the start of the season

i don't remember that, i didn't hear any Power supporters say that. The critics did.

Pfft, just like your supporters thought you had the 2007 flag in the bag hey HOF?

I think you'll find most Crows supporters thought they were a chance last week, but I never heard anyone declare certain victory like you are suggesting. Nothing wrong with showing a bit of confidence in your team mate.

Which is why I am going to continue with that confidence and say that the Crows will do it easily Sunday - Crows have won 7 out of their last 8, with a few players pretty keen to right the wrongs of last week. Port coming off a loss to Melbourne and a 5 goal win to an injury ravaged ordinary Eagles outfit at home, not exactly stellar form.

Crows by 50+

[RoosterMarty]

Shocking troll attempt hof. That is a terrible effort.

Please show us all examples of where Crow fans stated they were premiership favourites?

[LBT]

the power will definavely win this game by 2 or 3 goals, they always lift more than adelaide for showdowns. I cant wait to see chad and treddy goose stepping and jumping up and down on the fence after the game.

[Hondo]

I don't know a single Crows fan who thought we would beat St Kilda, let alone be premiership favourites

I am not even sure we are top 4 material yet! In fact, I am sure we aren't.

[Sorry Dude]

I am not even sure we are top 4 material yet! In fact, I am sure we aren't.

we are not even guaranteed a final spot yet. still a lot of footy to be played. i am tipping the crows just, but it should be one of the best showdowns to date.

[Dutchy]

Was at the Port Luncheon today and it was billed as Josh Carr v Roo - the ramsgate revisited, but Josh wasnt there!

He has the flu and will not play anywhere this weekend....
