I'm not arguing that, I am just stating that due to that start, they are in danger of falling out despite their form. If they lose to Hawks, Geelong and Us they probably don't deserve to be in the finals do they?

Geelong and GWS still have to play each other again though.
I have never - ever - understood the love for Rance. Commentators carry on as if he's won multiple matches for Richmond, or delivered them a flag, or at the very least made them a force in the AFL. Nope, nope and nope.
He's a shoe in ffor AA just because of the love. And with the number of AA's throughout his career he'll then be listed as one of the greatest full backs of all time... A position he doesn't really play...
So much in the AFL is just mythology. One of those myths is that Collingwood are the most popular club in the land, with hundreds of thousands and fans ... and somehow they never give up on their club.
Much like a myth of our little brother's.

Anyone know if Pendlebury is likely to play against us?
He had surgery on a broken finger either last week or this week. How long does it take to recover from something like that?

Membrey but no Montagna or probably Reiwoldt who is due to be rested. Their kids are running out of gas late in the year
Port will ski to a 12 goal win

SPP. Actually, scratch that. He's more of a hand comber than a hand runner.
What have you heard I heard it was a badly sprained ankle and he could miss st kilda.
I don't think he'll play next week also likely to be without Moore he's at the hospital getting scans on his neck, also varcoe down in the rooms getting assessed possible concussion
There should be no excuses for collingwood. ... they will be down at least those mentioned... no reason you would play pendles at this point in the season... they should be tanking hard... given bucks is all but gone... i would be resting brouch to fix his face... pkay galucci or polhoke.

If Port make the grand final they will be the single worst top four team of all time.
I mean, this isnt an occasionally brilliant team with inconsistent form. This isnt a good team struggling through injuries. This isnt even a steady and reliable, but lacking genuine top gear team.
This is a team without accomplishment. They've beaten noone of substance, they've lost at every significant challenge and all whilst having absolutely no injuries to speak of.
Port fans should be afraid. If this is the best they can do with the AFL having absolutely gifted it a dream draw two years in a row, imagine how much worse things to come could be.

Hmm. Is it just me or does he look fatter this year.... in the guts, he always has a fathead. Went from Mitch grigg mobile circa 2013 to Mitch grigg immobile 2016. Racks up numbers on talent but just seems to lost that explosiveness.

Collingwood at the end of last year brought in Mayne and Wells 4yr 2 mil and 3yr 1.8 mil. Has paid off in spades, hasn't it?
Tanking so he can get to us next year for a second rounder! I like his thinking
