    Our medical staff are pretty conservative to begin with so I honestly think if they're ready then I'm ok with playing them and don't think it's a risk (as much as you can say that with soft tissue injuries).

    Of course it is a risk playing Keath on a cold and wet Friday night.

    His soft tissue injuries with us re-surfaced on a cold and wet Friday night at the G last year against Melbourne.

    I'm deadset against Keath playing this week.

    Yeah I'd hold off on Keath for another week, Power don't have Dixon so their talls aren't going to be particularly threatening.

    My stance is if the medicos say he's clear then I believe the risk has been mitigated enough for me to accept the decision as our guys are generally pretty conservative. I don't recall too many guys coming in too quickly with soft tissues and re-injuring.
    But I understand we maybe need to be doubly cautious with the A. P. E. T....

    5 to 6 metres? Players better swap their boots for flippers!

    Seriously though I'm not sure where you are getting that from? BOM predicts only a 10% chance of bugger all rain Friday night and only 1-4mm for all of Friday and "most likely in the morning".

    I have access to a forecasting tool from Jane Bunn In any case it is bugger all.

    I'd like to see Bevo put Bont back in the midfield for maximum minutes. Use his height and reach.

    We really need this one, hopefully we can just play to our best because on paper we really match up well against them.
    I love how you portray Port Adelaide, probably my favourite of your vast array of shit cannery because it's so niche.

    Like the drunk guy at the pub looking for a fight nobody wants to have (or similar) is something I recycle often when talking about people in the business world I come across!

    Re: Port Adelaide: Level of Vengeance

    Good thread - was thinking the same this morning. We have to have a bit of confidence having beaten them there the last few times.

    But - we are playing like sh&t right now and honestly could lose to anyone other than essendon or north.
