    Re: WB Game Day V Port Adelaide R13 2023 Fri 9/6, 7:50PM - Marvel Stadium

    Given the match is at Marvel, there won't be any rain to save Port's bacon tonight.

    I'm tipping 'Dogs by 5 points, or goals (not that fussy).

    BOG: Bailey Smith
    FG: Westy

      Why this Port Adelaide trio is the best high-end AFL draft haul in 18 years

      It has been almost 20 years since the Power won a flag, but a clever investment in the 2018 draft has put the club in its best position yet to rectify that, writes Cody Atkinson and Sean Lawson.


      Long interesting article worth a read

        Thanks for sharing. Great read. They definitely got some generational talent with two of those picks in Butters and Rozee. The consistent linear improvement of the journey of Butters is off the chart. He is some player.

        In the same draft. We took.

        #7 Bailey Smith
        #26 Rhylee West
        #37 Laitham Vandermeer
        #45 Ben Cavarra
        #78 Will Hayes

        With hindsight. Any players after Smith who would we have rather taken:

        #10 Blakey and #13 Quaynor were academy picks.

        #8 Thomas - no
        #9 Jones - no
        #11 Caldwell - no
        #12 Butters - YES

          Don't really want to go out tonight but i will. Lookin' forward to the Eagleton-Montgomery-Lade cup presentation if we win. If we lose i'll be well on my way to a cold, cold walk back to the car.

            Butters is from Darley too - credit to the Power recruiters.

                  Last week our kicking skills killed us, field and goal.
                  So this is my focus tonight..
                  Fix that, we win.

                    I just had a Willie Rioli or Junior Rioli premonition.

                      Using Lobb and Naughton as a two headed monster requires separation, separate leads not bombing it to both in a pack.

                            Why do AFL players drag it in when they're hot like that? It happens all the time. So stupid

                                Naughton FFS. What was attractive about that decision?
