This game will make or break my confidence for the season. Port has been cooking us of late. Would love to get the win!

Port has almost exclusively cooked us in the middle and especially with their spread from the midfield with quick midfielders, has been our cryptonite over the years. Not this year though, with Richards, Freijah & Kennedy (not quick but good defensively) changing things up in there hopefully it’s not as big an issue.

Sweet embarrassed English last time too, absolutely cooked him in the middle - but I suspect with English’s new found intent to take front position and actually contest in the ruck, I think he’ll get one back over Sweet this time around. I wouldn’t be surprised if English got a rocket a few weeks ago and was told he wasn’t far off being dropped etc because the shift in his mindset has been quite obvious
