Rob fir Showdown medal. He may break the hitout and hitout to advantage records.
Just need to endure the defensive pressure they apply. They are good at it and can choke up good teams with it.
But it is not sustainable. Even their wins, the oppo have had late surge goals.
Get through that period with scores close and then expose Thilthy against their backline. Which is the worst in the league.
He could potentially kick 10 tonight.

Yeah but he is allowed to because of the inherent racism within the AFL industry.
I’m not sure what’s known as the most overrated stat in football is going to win him a showdown medal. Will need to do a fair bit around the ground. I know SFA about Visentini, could he have been brought in to largely concede hitouts but be better around the ground and hope that creates an overall advantage? Back the Port mids to rove to ROB or nullify the hitout advantage. Reality is ROB has a hitout advantage against most rucks, it’s just that ordinarily he is a statue until the next ball up or throw in.

It's like wanting threads to end on page 119
RoB beat DeKonning last week around the ground in general play.

It all comes down to midfield. If we’re able to get properly directed ball to our forward targets, they’ll win enough one on ones to put Port to the sword. If we’re talking about pressured bombs, then I reckon Ratagulea and Aliir will be better in the air overall than TT. Midfield and drive from backline is the key.

Hopefully he’s better at fixing a football game than fixing war, pestilence and famine
17 to 7 disposals, 359m gained to 98, 3 to 1 clearances, 1 to 0 marks. Seriously, by what metric was ROB more involved outside the stoppage?
My Port Power supporting friends giving away their tickets. Delicious.
I always thought you were more of an "eye test" guy over stats.
RoB beat DeKonning every time they were one on one. Have a look at Fog's first goal for a good example.
DeKonning got a lot of free ball when playing down back. Spent a lot of the game essentially being a defender.

We underestimated the Port Adelaide thug element to their game, we wont make that mistake again.

Im fine with that, especially if its a Rankine goal after the siren.
- Heartbreaking Loss, after they had hope, like every Finals series for them
- Gives Rankine redemption
- Keeps Kenny's position more tenable

My most one eyed friend i caught up with for a showdown lunch yesterday said something I have never ever heard out of his mouth... he actually thinks we will win.
Hope he right!
But he would never miss a game.

Ever since 1870
The one on one aspect only matters at stoppages. DeKonning contributed more than ROB around the ground, you can’t argue otherwise.
Are cheap disposals around the ball akin to raw hit out stats?
DeKonning had 17 disposals (11 uncontested at) at 47%. With 8 turnovers.
So only 8 decent disposals.
RoB had 7 dispsals at 100%.
RoB had 3 more score involvements. And a goal assist.
So yeah, statistically RoB was better.

At the game last week DeKonning was ridiculed for how easily RoB beat him.
He wants $1m a year....
