Another Brownless, er , i mean Brainless comment by Not so Footy Smart.
FWIW i think the Power will surprise this week with a good showing and a win wouldn't surprise considering the Powers impeccable record against the Saints who along with Collingwood would have to be one of the most inconsistent and hard to follow teams in the AFL.

Don't worry, when the Cows blow their chance to make the finals, you 2 will go missing as well.

Gee, the second half of the side is thin - especially in terms of who would get a game at the top sides (which Port was last year).

He wasn't in the initial squad, the fine wouldn't be worth it.

I am rather hoping the Power can knock off St Kilda, and the team doesn't look bad considering.
I'm just a bit concerned about Kane Cornes at centre - I thought he was a wide receiver..
I'd have gone for Cassisi, Surjan, or Thomson there.

Justin Westhoff seemed to have one of the best games I have seen him play in a long while!

I didnt see the game but interested to hear how Mitch Farmer went? I have seen him play some great footy for the Double Blues and hope he carried that onto the big stage.

for a first gamer farmer did some great tackles and some great play - he started on the field which is an honour I think (usually start on the bench).
