Just like last time.:cool: I think you need to have a brief watch of the last showdown.

Shut down the right players and Freo will be the 7th out of the last 11 teams, to beat port. It's not that difficult.
There are a few high profile pap players that go missing in tough contested footy, in other words most of them a flat track bullies with few tricks when it comes to tough hard grind footy. Thrashing a team that is preparing for next season is hardly a surprise. In the last two weeks by beating an injury ravaged Gold Coast and Carlton, all they have done is the equivalent of a school bully beating up on the small skinny class nerd. Next week when the real stuff starts again we will see how good they really are. If they beat Freo next week then they deserve every praise they can get, until then this is no better than the Crows win over Brisbane. Means nothing.

Hence why I said we'd need to rely on it being a wet day to nullify their run, much like the day of the last Showdown. On a sunny day I can't see us getting close. I mean, even another middle of the road side like West Coast smashed us at home on a sunny afternoon.

Oh, another thing on the game last night... there must have been a heap of Crows supporters dressed up as Port fans again last night because they're was a constant stream of black, white and teal leaving early from at least the 17 minute mark of the fourth quarter, particularly from the southern entrance of the Western Stand and the North-Eastern pocket. It's only us that have fans that leave early apparently:rolleyes:.

Port Adelaide answer their doubters with stellar performance after mid-season slump......

Rucci is such a ******* flog

The 'mid season slump' lasted almost half a season FFS.

Edit: I just found this gem : The Advertiser’s Chief Football writer Michelangelo Rucci will take up the Ice Bucket Challenge on Friday night at Adelaide Oval before the Port v Carlton clash.

I hope someone swapped out ice for bricks :)

Getting in early aye?

It isn't premiership or bust this year, port are still very young and learning.


Just wait till next year and beyond though........
Not getting in early at all, I'm just gouging the opinion of the port power board from the entire season.

You lot had blown your load all over the cup when you were 11 and 1 but now it's next year and beyond.

Was having dinner in town last night with a friend and as we were walking back towards the train station I wanted to hug all the Carlton supporters I saw with long faces.
