Port easily. 2nd home prelim in a row they have lost.

I think the question is who are considered the biggest chokers of recent years - Brisbane or Port? 1 win from 6 home finals (including 1 prelim) or 2 home prelim losses in a row?

Port at least had a crack in the third quarter even though in the end the scoreboard result was 0.

Geelong turned a 5 goal half time deficit into a 13 goal 3 quarter time deficit. If not for the absurd umpiring in the QF they would've been on the end of two 10 goal losses this year.
 
Serious question:

Has this been the worst performance by a home team (that started as clear favourites) in a Preliminary Final?

I’m struggling to think of any worse than this.

Yeah, favourites have lost Prelims before when they’ve been expected to win (us in 1999 for example) but I can’t remember such an insipid performance by a favourite.
