Port Adelaide 2013

[The Sleeping Giant]

I guess it depends on what effect hinkley has immediately. If they play a more attacking direct type of footy, Port could win 10 with no trouble.

Didn't think I would be bumping this so early.

They look miles ahead of my rabble

Shit, good call!! Whether you like them or not (if you're open minded enough) you have to take your hat off to what they've done and how they've played thus far!!

Jake Neade is my favourite player.

Long long way to go I would think your need 13 wins to get in the 8 this year and whilst were making huge in roads and obviously sitting 5 and 0 is a great start I think we'll give the 8 a shake next year if we were lucky enough to scrape in this year who knows what that experience could do to our young list for the year after

Well GWS, GCS, Melb, Bris, St Kilda, Adel are all gone and North have some work to do, so there's 6-7 out of the equation

Agree 13 wins will be required.

They have 5 to date, so need 8 more from the remaining 17 games.

Looking at the draw, I recon they've got 9 hard game (red), 4 50:50 games (blue), and 4 easy games (green).

So if they win 2 of the 4 50:50 games, win 3 of the 4 easy games (you'd expect a slip up at some stage), then they still need to find 3 wins of the 9 hard games. Certainly not an easy task.

Away and Home.

Much easier to play Carlton at Footy park than in Melbourne I would say was Traders thinking!

Might need that game for finals so stage fright could kick in

Well Betfair has the Roos as favourites at the moment, so do you think I should change it to red?

Sound familiar?

[wristwatcher]

Still haven't played anyone, soft draw, lucky, rub of the green....did I miss any of the haters excuses. This young squad is on the way up and great to watch. Loving their whole vibe. Really exciting stuff

[Hondo]

Everybody loves a winner .. On the small sample of 3 home games (including a Showdown) so far Port's average home attendance is 30,000 compared to 20,000 last year.

We still have those cold wet winter games to come so the average will drop but good signs that on field form is dragging people along to watch which will make a huge difference to their finances.
