In my expert opinion, this will be the game of the round :-). Should be a cracker of a finale - certainly a lot closer than last year's debacle. It sounds obvious, but it could all come down to who kicks straighter on the day. It's been the deciding factor in several finals so far (Melbourne...

If your mother in law is visiting and you don't like her, tie her to a chair and make her watch the replay of that game. And if she complains, make her watch it again.

I'm just waiting for the next revolutionary rule change for next year, "This week, players from all 18 clubs can only kick with their left foot. Any attempt to kick with the right foot will be penalised with a free kick and 50 metre penalty."

Because the AFL invented a new timeslot, just because they could.

I'd say there's more chance of Donald Trump becoming the next pope!!!

Rounds 19 and 20 are exactly what Port needs, in the lead up to September. Both should be cracking contests.

I think Port has beaten the Cats about 3 times since 2007 - the definition of a bogey team!!! But this Port team is made of sterner stuff than previous years: I'll be disappointed if we let this one slip.

After last weekend, I'm taking nothing for granted - I'd be happy with a 1 point win.

I'm just wondering how the Bombers will go against North next week, coming off the bye.

Mods please thread ban this man :). Edit: joking mate.....

It might just be a coincidence that we haven't lost since Ken exited the coaches box, but I'd be surprised if Josh Carr hasn't played a pivotal role on game day. I'll be stoked if he takes over the role of senior coach next year.

Yeah our goal kicking is about as accurate as claims that Hinkley is a good coach.

I'm not convinced that Port are certainties here. The Bombers weren't too bad against Collingwood and Geelong, so we definitely won't be taking them lightly.

Let's revisit that view after the next month.

Well if neither team knows how to win close games, that points to a draw :).

If it's close late, Port has proven all season that they don't know how to get over the line - blowing countless set shots in 4th quarters. If it's close, I'm backing the Tigers.

His nickname is Minibus, because he's half a coach.

OK I'll admit our chances are higher than North Melbourne's.

I'd say there's more chance of Vladimir Putin winning this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

We seem to play the MCG pretty well - apart from the first half against Carlton. This one could go either way.

That's fair enough, but it's not the first time in 2018 where Port's defence has been under siege, and they've stood up admirably - similar scenario at the SCG in round 2, but the Swans only had 6 goals to half time.

Says something about how good Port's defence was last night - for Melbourne to have 68 inside 50's, but only score 9 goals is testament to how good our back 6 was. Maybe it also says something about the Melbourne forwards on the big stage: they go missing when it really matters.

Is clearly a member of the NAD: the National Dyslexia Association :-)

Really hoping for a classic decider like 2009 or 2012.

Mate I'm just relieved Chad survived Hodge's attempt to knock him into next week. THUG!!!

CEO Gillon McLaughlin has confirmed that the AFL has ordered two hundred thousand hotdogs for grand final day. This is due to the fact that there will be no Pies there :-)

Commiserations to Vickery, following his narrow loss to Collingwood :)

Well said. Great game of footy, and I struggled to hold back the tears after the game during the Walsh tribute.

I didn't trust Mr. Swan when he was Federal Treasurer, and I'm not sure I trust him now: 1 point will do me :-)

Hang on, let me pull you up there - Ken Hinkley has a lot of attributes, but one of them certainly isn't arrogance. He certainly has faith in his players, and isn't afraid to talk about it, but I don't see that as being arrogant. Right now, I reckon I'm right in saying that a lot of clubs would...
