Opinion Non-Crows AFL 12: It's the confectionery with 1000 uses

[Shuestar13]

How long does the "lEts GeT uP and pLAYy for Kenny" strategy work for Poort?

A couple more weeks at least. Will win a few home games to keep the true believers happy but fail on the road.

Will hope they don’t pick up any more injuries, we’ve seen what happens when they do…

 

[Aaron929]

Yeah melborune have been horrible they just have no forward structure at all.

I think sydney knock them off in Adelaide next week tbh, should a bunch of players back.

if Port lose butters and bergman though they are in for nothing but pain next year.

10 years and counting

 

[The Karma Bus]

They also have their best players back. Today they were in trouble and put JHF into the midfield and the two key clearances he won then set up goals. He wins them alot of games and wrestles back momentum with big key moments.

They missed Butters early on as well.

It's more than that.
They were mentally not even close to being on AFL planet.
Didn't give two shits and that's why their supporters were so mad as well.

Port making finals from here requires both them to go on a massive winning streak AND a side currently in the eight to shit the bed to open up a spot.

They still have to make up a 2 win and percentage deficit just to make eighth over Fremantle. And they have just 10 matches to do that.

They'd basically have to go 8-2 from here while Fremantle, Gold Coast or GWS win no more than 5 of their remaining games

 

[Peter Doherty]

I honestly thought the Dees would get up today.

Like I said, Port's winning streak has begun and they'll make a charge towards the eight and possibly make it now.

I hope we play them in a final.

Please beat CarLOLton

Forwards kicking some big bags of goals this round

For some teams anyway

In perfect conditions.

 

[Redline]

I am not sure even putting aside his contract anyone would want Oliver. He is close to a list clogger now a days.

Petracca still has some impact but no where near the level his reputation suggests.

Melbourne need to part ways with Goodwin. Far too much baggage

 

[BRL121]

If that was us tackling, that'd have been a dangerous tackle

Nah. Nowhere near it.

Why don't you analyze the grounds and conditions?

Petracca looks like he is scared of getting hurt. Still skilled, but a few times went in soft.

 

[spenze]

Still three games out of the 8 for Port, very big gap to make up in the run home

 

[Shuestar13]

Please beat CarLOLton

A “mild” chance but wouldn’t get the hopes up too much

If there final chances are over by the time of the showdown wouldn't surprise me if they try and Injure as many of our players feral fks

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

The "Port will do something this year" bed-wetting has began.


They will win all three of this block of three games and that is it.

Just enough to take the heat off Ken in his celebration lap season.

I don't think they'll win the flag at all, but they have form of going on winning streaks when the pitchforks are out. 14 in a row in 2023, and six in a row to finish the H&A last season.

Hopefully we can be the ones to end their season in an Elimination Final should they get there.

This week is the exception but it usually works after they get pumped the week before.

Which is weird because it's like "You know Ken was your coach that week too?"

If anyone can shit the bed, it's Fremantle.

They won't beat geelong in geelong, they wont beat hawthorn in launceston where they are almost unbeatable and while i know showdowns are 50/50, with where we are at, i'd be shocked if they beat us in our home showdown. So realistically they'd have to win out on their other games and thats 13 wins at best and likely have to rebuild the % to overcome other 13 win sides. Its going to be a monumental task for them to make finals unless they pull of a shock v us/ geelong/hawks and thats assuming they have beaten brisbane in brisbane.

 

[imagifED]

Lol that Port vs Carlton in two weeks on the Thursday night will be marked as a clash between two "red hot finals contenders".

Thanks Derwayne

Jesus ****ing Christ, they won’t make the 8. Get off the drugs.

Correct, there are a number of bed wetters amongst our supporters.
