I expect Tredrea to kick a few . Port by 17 points .


I dunno about that Tommy. Choco is Craigs beeatch and Port's forward line is a basket case at the moment. Westoff LOL.

Why is it pathetic?
Since the Powder entered the comp the Crows have won twice as many flags than Port and yet despite that the Powder have won more showdowns! A pretty good record in my book.
Victorians non success in the last few years? Show me a non Victorian side that dominated the awards and record as much as Geelong did last year despite not getting one final at their home ground where non Victorian teams do get that advantage. Add to that the fact that 'recent'can be relative.

Anyway, who cares! Im personally looking forward to Ford Super Showdown 203 this weekend when the Cats should win. ;)

I don't want Doughty and Shirley in the same team... Doughty has the runs on the board this season to keep him, Shirley can go play for Woodville.

Yep, had a giggle when apparantley he's only played one full game in the backlines he's going to be an All Australian.
Matty Scarlett, Egan, Hunt, Harley, etc might as well as not bothering playing this year if the Advertiser is anything to go by, of course its only the Victorian media that is pathetic though! :roll: :lol:

Hunt Harley and scarlett are not CHB. and I still think hunt is a hack. i still get a giggle when i see that vision of him laughing when he marks straight in front and misses and they lose. and for Bock he has got the runs in the first two weeks and will be the CHB they are talking about in the first all australian meeting. and arent geelong worried that egan might not be back til round 15

ACtually it would. When one team is playing that poorly it would be a surpirse if they win.
