Unfortunately due to this morning's Herald Sun exclusive, Stevie J has armed Port Adelaide with everything it needs to dismantle us.

"HOW TO BEAT HAWTHORN", far out. I know he doesn't like us much but it's not fair giving away all that inside info to dodgy clubs like Port and Sydney.

I was pretty horrified reading it all laid out in black and white in the cafe.

Hodge won't hesitate to hurt you. Roughead gives dirty knees in the back.
All Hawthorn's players are good.
Burgoyne's weak positions are better than other players anyway.
Breust is really good and will cut you up.
Hawthorn plays really well and everyone understands the game plan.
They understand risk and reward of different kicking options.
Mitchell and Lewis are really good.

So there you have it. Ken Hinkley will be jizzing in his cornflakes this morning with all that set out for the world to see.

Going to buy a copy on way home to read again.
I can't even begin to articulate how pleased I am that Geelong are finished.

I just think the final system is still a sorry a#sed failure.
Just under 50% of all teams in the comp surely are not worthy of a tilt at a premiership.
The last decade has shown that mostly anyone above 5th is just helping the AFL make a little more money.

Me to Swan friend: Who would you rather play in the Grand Final?
Swan friend: Does it matter?
Me: I thought your preference might be Port..
Swan friend: After last night I'm not sure that the Hawks nor Port are any match for what the Swans will bring next week.

Arrogance much?

I was going to say let him be arrogant, will be sweeter if they lose but he'll probably deny ever being arrogant if they lose.

Liverpool, Old Ivanhoe!
Sydney didn't even play that well last night, it was one of the all time worst Preliminary final performances I have seen.

North have a habbit of being putrid in preliminary finals, 2007 were smashed by 87 by the Power who then went on to embarrass themselves the following week after Geelong fell in against Collingwood, not suggesting we will beat Sydney by 100 points next week if we can make it through but lets not get carried away with Sydney's performances last night against the 6th best team in the competition who were shot to pieces.

How many articles has die-hard Essendon tragic and confirmed Hird-worshipper Rohan Connolly written with the express purpose of firing up our opposing team this year? Seems like an awful lot, and we can add another to the list.

Would have thought the john barker PF would burn deeper


Quite like connoly these days, at least hes a bit different and the 2000s essendon arrogance has been burned out of him what did he say after 2001 ? " brisbane would have murdered hawthorn"

He's also backed us to win the whole thing most of the year - not many in the press do that.
Yeah, he's tried using reverse psychology against us quite often this year. Hawthorn playing Carlton? Cool, I'll talk up how dominant the Hawks have been over them for ten years and maybe that'll fire up the Blues!

The bloke is as sly as they come, I like to think of him as Robbo with more hair and less stink of gin.

I didn't see the game at all. I took my mother to the ballet. No sign of the Swine and we had Ian Dicker in our row. A very nice evening was had by all.
Hope you saw Swan Lake. The dying swan act will hopefully be repeated next week.

Abba summed it up. "Money, Money, Money."
If $ydney win the premiership this year the AFL will be able to report: <MISSION ACCOMPLISHED>

However if we or Port win we might hear: :oops:!

Funny how Stevie J writes an article on how to beat Hawthorn in a big game, when the cats have struggled to do exactly that.

Kinda like a book of sex tips from a virgin.

Bit arrogant considering their last three games against us - one win this year is on par with the Syds, whom he purports to advise.

I was surprised at Johnson's article. It was quite good, complementary in fact. His advice was to Ports state of mind, rather than tactics. He basically said believe you belong and are the equal of your opponent.

More stunning insight from the little paper.

Post footy, a career as a intelligence analyst awaits Stevie J.
Steve Johnson & intelligence - now, THERE'S a contradiction in terms if ever I've heard one!
