Two things could happen, Hawthorn come out livid and try and destroy the Power or Geelong mentally destroyed the Hawks last Friday night and they come out flat and only win by 10 goals.

Option three:
Hawks have Power's attitude of last week ("We're only play that Port rabble), try and play million dollar footy, and the Power bust their hump to prove they aren't totally useless, get the jump on the Hawks, and win the thing.

I think it's unlikely, but it could happen.

I have an unopened 2004 Premiership carton, I'm hoping it's worth more than the $34 I paid for it.

It isn't, but it is worth more than the club.

Sadly I think the coach was the least of the Power's problems - it all looks much as it did late in Mark Williams time.
From what I've seen on the televised matches, sometimes the players try and sometimes they don't.
(Sure there is also a manpower deficiency.)

A broader clean out than just the coach is required.

Agreed, but with draft set ups it is impossible to turn over a list in under 3-4 years, plus we clearly dont have the money to terminate contracts early and pay the players out.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Yeah you need to get these selections right and develop them to be AFL ready in 2 years. 2 seasons of footy and they should be more than competetive. Selections and development is what has killed you. Forget the game plan etc etc but if you cant kick and havent been taught in 2 years on a list you aint worth Jack and cant carry out any game plan.

No way did Geelong mentally destroy the Hawks. They came back from 51 points down and nearly stole it. They'll pound the Power.

I'm interested to know who the MOLE is at Alberton giving Rucci all his spot on info.
I'm thinking it has to be a board member.
Nothing worse hearing " THE KNOW IT ALL RUCCI " big noting himself.
