port are quick our skills need to be on or they will hurt us on the rebound.
port players to watch
Tredrea still probably underdone but needs to be checked, presti for me

-lade will ruck most of the game I think that will suit us as he is more dangerous in front of goal as we have not got much height there. The battle with fraser will be an epic it will be a good test for richards if he can cut it josh can push foward.

-chad cornes he will run off from half back maybe his opponet must drag him back to the sqaure who ever plays on him will have to be discipline and creative at the same time.

-s burgoyne is aclass midfielder licca will get first go at him if he quells him he will be a hero on this site again.

Interesting stat we have only one 4 qtrs from 12 qtrs in saying that maybe we have not played our best footy yet but west coast game was close so that stat could be closer.

It will be a good test this one. We better not underestimate these clowns!

Brendon Lade won't play. You heard it from me first!

(based on the fact that I was out at the airport today picking up my sister and the port team arrived at the same time minus Lade.... obviouslly he could of caught an earlier plane but i'm hoping he didn't!)

A win by any margin will sufice for me. Ugly or pretty. Just need to keep bagging 4 point, while some better players are out. This will be a game to determine where we sit IMO. Cos we've only just beaten two sides that will probably be in the bottom 4. Port will be fighting for a possie in the 8 like us. Which makes it nearly an 8 point game.

Although We look like we'll have Didak, Johno, and Clem back this week for the loss of Medders and Wakes. It will take Dids at least 4 weeks to get near his best and 12 weeks to get his fitness near 100%.

Pies by 15 points. I hope!

This one may go right down to the wire. We tend to go up and down the corridor when we play Port for some reason, and they tend to go wide. If we are within 18 points at half time - we may well smack them. However if we are 24-30 points down at half time it may be us who are smacked.

Hey! Anyone know what the link is for the AFL radio as none are available as yet and are always late too.... I listen to the radio but it cuts off because of the AFL that doesn't even have link for the same broadcast hmmm.....
Canga!!

Hard to predict at this stage in the season. We could win by 50 or lose by 50. Judging by Richmond's performance last night, beating them may not have been such a big achievement, but as melliot said, this is a very important game. Will give us a better idea as to where we are at.
