Tough game for the Power, generally play well against the Pies though......

50/50 game, but i reckon the Pies will get up in Melbourne.

Collingwood by 30 points.

Do think there will be a big name dropped from the Power

Certainly interesting but probably not surprising.

Has he played a good game for North Adelaide yet?

Sad to say but Josh Carr is finished.

Yes it is sad. I expect Port to win considering weve copped a bit of crap in the advertiser. Port 21-30.

Thurstons will be the travelling emergancy

If Port were Smart they wouldn't be playing players that are injured

ha ha... port smart

And if they were, because they'd got the licence Port were given, they'd now have a bigger supporter base than the Power...

not sure what logic your basing that on, but i guess that's something we'll never ever be able to prove.

No logic, I was teasing, gently because it is on the Power Board..
I was implying that not as many SANFL supporters hate Norwood as hate Port Adelaide, so there was more chance of a broader support base.
[Personally, I'd have gone for another composite team with no handicap from the past.]

I can't stand both sides, however I've got a vested interest on the Pies. I had 20 bucks on Carlton, Bulldogs, Bris, St Kilda and Colilngwood all over 15.5 pts. So dare I say it "go pies".

Seriously I thought Collingwood should win this but it really depends on which Port turns up. They're due (Port, to turn up that is) so I'm a bit concerned.

Collingwood took a half to get going & when they decided to get out of first gear & up the intensity thats when the going got to tough for Port, they were totally outclassed after half time the Power.
Definately not a top 8 side Port Power.

Just a joke!!! 9 goals in a row from collingwood (if im correct) what were we doing ???
Hanging out waiting for it to come to us.......usually we lay down in the 3rd qtr, getting earlier.......
Id rather lose knowing they busted their arses every qtr and all put in 100%
To lose like that is a kick in the guts.
Where to from here?

Port should start tanking.......
