I thought this may interest you lot. A young Port fan by the name of Caitlin Webb put this song together.

I've grown up supporting the Port Adelaide Football Club and I was inspired by their incredible turn around and their determination to overcome adversity, so much so that I created this song, centred around Port Adelaide's motto of never gi...ving up. I would love it if everyone could please watch my video and share it around to all your friends and family as I want to inspire people to never give up their dreams. Thank you xxx

Don't let those guys bother you. They're there to stir up controversy and generate traffic for the afl.com.au website. We won, they lost, that's all there is to it.

The only guys you need to pay serious attention to are club officials and players. Everything else is, at the end of the day, just so much talk.

He is, unfortunately, correct.

As long as they say the same thing of Fremantle. You know, the side that got flogged by the 16th placed team? Or Geelong, who just scraped through against GWS.
Both Fremantle and Geelong have been beaten by Port Powaz so defiantly (sic) not top 4. :rolleyes:

Geelong is winning and Freo had won the previous 8 games so the media will pass it off as an aberration. I hate Barrett as much as the next guy but our current form is woeful.

Who actually cares what that parasite Barrett has to say anyway?

That is 100% factual gentlemen. Some people get so carried away with fiction here that they forget about the facts.
FACT or FICTION : Port would be susceptible atm to a beating from most clubs in the AFL.

Geelong could right now arguably be the most fraudulent top 4 side in history. But they're, you know....Geelong.

Judge our top 4 aspirations when we have our two key defenders and Monfries back in the fold. If we could somehow get Butch kicking some goals we could actually win it I'd say, we are good enough, seen worse teams win it

Our last month has consisted of losses to Adelaide, Essendon and Richmond and a 3 point win at home against the Demons, what Barrett has said is not really unreasonable.
The media went way over the top with there bold predicitions that we could win the flag after only a few rounds this year, they are always quick to jump on board a team in form and are just as quick to jump off board when a team loses a few games in a row. It is what our club and players believe they are capable of internally that matters and i'm dead set sure they all still believe in their top 4 aspirations. I think our first 11 games this year suggests that you can underrate Port Adelaide at your own peril.

I've got no problem with people saying that our form is shocking, but what ****s me off is these so called analysts being paid to talk about the game and instead of saying "Well, Port has lost their two key defensive backs and they really didn't have a replacement for them, which along with a suspected heavier training load, limited their ability to run out of defense" we get a blanket statement of how we aren't a top four side.

We're more of a top four side than either Geelong or Fremantle are. And we'll prove it by beating Collingwood, Sydney, Gold Coast, Carlton and Fremantle.

8 games, 8 wins.
