Preview Finals 2014 Discussion: Port Adelaide v Richmond, 2.45pm, Sun Sept 7th, Adelaide Oval

[Mogwai]

Is it true Port have only beaten Carlton, Ablett-less Gold Coast, Melbourne (by 3) since Round 15?

 

[Tex200]

Did you watch the game? Swans were terrible in the first quarter then the next three they put the foot down.

And were the Crows tanking when we beat you? If the Tiges are as bad as you are alluding to then the Crows must be crap.

So you're saying Syd played with the same intensity today as they did last week?

Dude stop crying. Your team was just not good enough this year. So stop trying to tear our wins down and move on.

No, the last half they played with the high intensity of a home and away game.

Wow, that surprised me considering they are raging favourits.

The media believes Ports form from the start of the year is back, based on a flogging of Carlton. I watched only snippets of the game but there was no pressure.

 

[Righteo]

Port were very good last week I thought, you're a good chance but it's going to be no picnic Tiger fans.

Going to be some great attacking footy no doubt.

 

[TheKanga]

Think Port will win by 28pts

Terry Wallace last night on SEN gave his two cents, concluding that Ports home ground advantage will get them over the line in today's elimination final. Home ground advantage is no doubt a benefit. However, when you're about to compete against a team that doesn't give a flying **** where they play and who have consecutively displaced 9 teams, home and away, in the lead up to a final - not to mention, 7,000 Richmond faithful who will be at their most passionate, 'home ground advantage' becomes a misnomer.

Do you think all the travelling and the hard slog in Sydney will hurt you?
Port have just abit to much class at home i think.

Port had a tougher one traveling to Perth to play Freo.

And i dont get this "to much class" bit, exactly how have they got to much class?
