Opinion Non-Crows AFL 12: It's the confectionery with 1000 uses

[cleanhands]

Desperation of a club that we are supposedly Professionally Jealous of

Absolutely desperation

 

[Bearded Clam]

There is a lot of wishful thinking around here thinking port could upset geelong..

Think the best we can hope for is an under 50 point win to geelong..

Just remember.. the more losses port have the worse the price they end up having paid for Luko and Atkins!..

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

No Rozee, no Bergmann

Could Port also soon own the minor round biggest losing margin record?

No chance. Swans might have a sneaky chance though

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

A dismal St Kilda loss here please, which sends a deflated Nasiah into our arms

No one is expecting a win, a 50 point loss would be wishful thinking

We’ve got West Coast and North

West Coast should be a solid win but North at Marvel won’t be that easy, I would be happy with a 30 point win.

Geelong have the Pear Twos today at home, Essendon Thirds at home next week, Sydney (who fell in against the Essendon Thirds yesterday) and finish with Richmond at the MCG. They currently have four players on their injury list and they will all be available next week.

We need to focus on two things

1) Beat Collingwood in two weeks time.

2) Get everyone fit and ready for the first week of the finals.

Rozee out, shouldn’t have played last week

Nothing to do with the hand, it’s an ‘illness’.

Have you watched North today? We will flog them

You never know with the Pies but beating them for the first time will be a great mental hoodoo for our team to overcome, they wouldn’t fear them and Pies would be nervous

I don’t think belief against the Pies is a problem. Yes, we have t beaten them recently, but it’s been a cracking game even when we were bad.

In Port we trust tomorrow. They're not too bad at picking off the Cats.

5 minutes in and they’re acquitting themselves ok. Just need to hold on for a moderate loss. I had this pegged as 90+ for cats. Go Port (unashamedly)

 

[1970crow]

Top 9 record against each other now sits as this,

Brisbane 7-4
Geelong 6-4
Freo 6-2
Adelaide 5-5
Collingwood 5-5
GC 5-5
GWS 5-5
Hawthorn 3-6
Bulldogs 2-8

Freo are weirdos.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

My god if we manage to get NWM....

 

[Crow till I die]

Wouldn't shock me if port supporters are secretly hoping geelong belt them by a massive margin so they close in on our % and it might be problematic for our top 2 chances (lose to collingwood and geelong might end up above us on % at seasons end)

 

[1990crow]

Port are going to let Geelong lose by 20 goals here to spite us percentage wise.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Carr is going down this path.

If you are a bad team as long as you put in effort with tackling and pressure, its rare to then still lose by 80+

Not surprising. He's decent.

Go you good things Port

I don’t think Port are ‘letting’……they are just a rabble.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Is Aliir cooked? I know he's been carrying an injury but his hands and his skills are not great atm.

 

[footy4ever]

Being able to sit back and watch Poort get a total prison shower down at Geelong this afternoon, perfect weather today too....

Absolutely!!

However, I know, I know, and I'm feeling unwashed and dirty, but I'm barracking hard for the filth.

Go the PEAR!!!

I reckon teams like Port at this stage perform better when you drop the stars that have checked out, and instead play guys who are playing for their contract or career

Port have been forced into it by injury but often you can get an uptick in effort
