Stone cold motherless after a fatefull night in May last year. However up to then we well and truly deserved to be last given our performances, certainly the Port 2008 version till June is better (IMO) than the 2007 till June version of the Bays (if that makes sense :oops: :oops: )


Yeah Im good with that mate :rolleyes: :-s :wink:

This run of form equals Port's worst start in its first 9 matches.

2002 also had 2 wins and 7 losses.

Not the end of the world though...

But before everyone says "ha ha", there are three teams in the past 25 years who have not recorded a single win in the first 9 matches of a season:

Sturt in 1993 & 1995
North in 2001

And then went on to not win any of the next 11 games either.

Based on the two games against the Dogs that i have seen them, they have been complete opposites.
In round 1, they looked like top 5 certanties only just losing in a very high intensity game in which they probably should of won, apart from a couple of classical defensive errors and one Ian Callinan.
and then
Only a few rounds ago they were awful in fact AMATUERISH, absolutly smashed by an understrength, youthful central side on the own home turf, there skill level was terrible, structure non exsistent and had no discipline whatso ever.
