Well Lions worry me TBH - at home, saying fairwell to the last of their three-peat generation, we're missing our two best on-ballers. But if we're disciplined tight and play to our strengths we should still get the W.
As for Port, they're building nicely and will be red hot to knock us off in two weeks, they get Trengrove this week, one of their most important players - they'll get back to their confident fast attacking best this week at home vs Carlton with Monfries back in too, then come over to us chomping at the bit knowing they'll have every chance for our 4th spot coming off and extra 2 days break while we will be on 6 day turnaround and the longest flight in AFL ... I'm not saying we can't beat them, but I think we're going to have to pull off something special to get it done.
Still, back to cliches: A week is a long time in footy - lets just see how it pans out.
We had them for 3 quarters at their home ground, when they were playing their best footy of the year. Got run over in the 4th sure, but that was with an injury to Hill and they've had a lot more football since then.
That said, Barlow, Fyfe and 6 day break evens it up for mind.
