    I give us a huge chance next week if we get through tomorrow night.

    You can make the arguement tomorrow night is the hardest one.

    Agree. Hawks are the team I wanted to avoid. But I think our best still beats their best.

    The losses of Houston and Farrel have maybe not been emphasised enough. It would be like that one time we played them without Jones and had a totally dysfunctional backline.

    They just looked a bit clueless and without clean ball from half back, it had a real flow on effect on their ball usage going forward.

    Likely no Butters next week too. Last time around he had 33 at 85% (23 contested), kicked a goal, had 7 clearances, and 8 score involvements).

    It?s as good a time to get them as any.

    The good news is MJP is like bloody nostradamus at the moment with his tips, and he tipped the Cats and Dogs so.... There's that.

    The media is seriously on the Showtime Hawks at the moment. Let's make them Showtime by smashing them in the presence of 90K people tomorrow night.

    I've not wanted to put a side away like I have this week for a long while.

    I usually don?t watch much of the other games but I found this one fascinating. The millimetre perfect positioning, kicking and handball by Geelong had to be seen to be believed. An edited hour of that would be the best training aid the Dogs could have.

    Give every player a copy and insist that they watch it twice a day, with food, for three months.

    It was against witches hats though. Port had no defensive element to their game. It was literally Geelong gets goal side in defence, Geelong gets goal side in attack. Port stand still.

    Couldn't agree more. The decision just might spell the end of Ken Hinckley's time at Port.

    Ok Straight Sets Hinkley on the ropes.

    Scott (as much as I hate to say it) is an incredible coach. The Cats have what I’d call a middling list but are coached so well and execute the plan against specific opposition. We can beat them. But they’re an incredible side.

    Jee knows, he's responding to a comment saying we missed him in the ND.

    Once we missed him in the MSD the only way to get him in the ND after his big finals would have been to trade up after Croft was picked.

    I looked up cracking under pressure in the dictionary and it had the last 5 years of Port Adelaide team photos.
