, absolute superstar. Came back from a knee and cancer and still up there with the best when he was on.

One of my favourite players to watch, natural footballer which are more and more scarce in today's game.

Port Power by 72

I was confident until the boys starting going on about the hate for the crows... Now I expect the crows to come out and smash us. 1 more good performance by Robbie is all I ask for... I don't care about anything else.

What our players have said prior to the match will have absolutely no bearing on the result whatsoever. This idea that because we’ve talked smack means we are going to lose is just stupid. It won’t suddenly turn the crows into a good team. Far out.

If we lose it’s because we are s**t not because of what the players said in the lead up.

Will be a rollercoaster day

I thought Nicks was a bit of a crybaby sook saying we’ve crossed the line.

I like the players just saying it how it is. More honesty in this world is a good thing pointing out entitlement.

Our club cracked the sooks over a sticker. It's completely hypocritical to call a club arrogant and entitled with donuts and Kock around.

 

[PowerBaz]

Keen for the kids to see a decent crowd tonight, keen to listen to the crowd banter, keen to see Robbie do some tricks, keen to see watch the Ken jibes from the crowd, assume we might win but that feels like the least of the excitement. Bass is right, it’s a nothing game in the context of ‘chasing greatness’.

But it's all faux nonsense

 

[Capital Power]

Anyone care enough to start the GD thread?

Kenny's game is not good in the wet.
The crows keep scores low and close.
We talked stupid.
Must win game.

All set up for a disappointing result.

It's awful when it's dry too.

It’s not looking like it will rain at all during the game. Plus I thought our record in the wet is actually not too bad?

It's our record at AO at night I'd be more concerned about.

Hmm ... yeah it is a strange one because we don't look like we play well in it.

Not so sure about that. Quiet often the difference between teams on a given day is their attitude and psychology in the moment.
