Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 18 - Suns v Port Sun July 14th 1:10pm AEST (People First)

[GC2015]

Gold Coast easily will win like Brisbane did against Port a few weeks back, especially since Kenny puts his nepotism ahead of Port's chances to win when he gifts cooked Charlie on crutches a game.

Plenty to play for. Port have the opportunity to really embed themselves inside the top 8 with a win, but a loss will see them fall into a very vulnerable position with a poor percentage. The Suns can surprisingly enter the top 8 with a win (at least temporarily) but a loss will put them in a very difficult situation in terms of keeping their season alive. Essentially, both teams need the win if they want September action this year.

I don't think Port will play well with bringing in a cooked forward they'll just lob the ball to for an easy interception.

The stakes just got raised due to Fremantle's loss. Port are officially playing for a spot in the top 4 tomorrow. Might not catch Geelong on percentage, but being equal 4th with 6 rounds to go is a very good position to be in. Suns still capable of jumping into the 8 tomorrow as well. Big game for both clubs.

Selecting Dixon does sound concerning, though. Definitely looks cooked and we've got several intercepting talls in Mac Andrew and Charlie Ballard who may have a field day with Dixon being the main target for Port.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Port can go from 7th to 2nd with a 130 point win

 

[PerthBoy86]

Surely GC has to break the hoodoo. I can't believe their only win against the Power was that long ago when they started out.

Port were already in the top 4 a few weeks back, and wasted their opportunities, they're just going to do it again. Will be an easy Gold Coast win with Port's poor selection and poor coaching. Mind boggling bringing in Dixon who is finished and last played weeks ago playing really bad in The SANFL.

I can. Lived thru every one of them including the games

 

[PerthBoy86]

Ah, I get why they played Dixon. Whichever side has Dixon wins...

 

[Hollow Knight]

That appears to be a very dismal crowd on a perfect Gold Coast day.

Grim.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Weeks. 2 at least, hate seeing that

 

[Plugger35]

Lachie Jones going off with a broken mullet.

Think the MRO will be having a look at that.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

2? At least 4 if Jones is concussed. Wouldn't surprise me if it was more.

 

[Mayes2Gray]

It'd be Hinkley's 3rd premiership as coach in 3 weeks.

So why exactly does port own real estate in your head?

 

[Taper]

Ken Hinkley is a great coach because Port don't bottom out.
Port haven't won less than 10 games in a season since 2012.

 

[Plugger35]

Now a melee at quarter time, there is a bit of spite in this one.

Probably 14k. Would be a record between the two here. Previously around 12k

I don’t remember criticising Hinkley n that comment.

I’m curious as to why an Eagle is so invested in what Port Adelaide is doing.

Well yeah. **** GCS.

Maybe he wants West Coast to poach Hinkley?

 

[Young_Guns]

lol Horne-Francis little bit of a major f*ckwit.

 

[Percel]

lol Horne-Francis little bit of a major f*ckwit.

And he’s getting a talking to from papa Hinkley

 

[CrowToon]

If Ken doesnt drag Horne Francis for that he is weak.

JHF can only do that whilst having 0 disposals if he feels bulletproof ajd invincible. Not captain material.

 

[janty]

Rozee isn't a captain's butt hole.

 

[Plugger35]

Port injuring their own players now.
