The key factor is that Dale didn’t want it to go further and Dogs supported that. If they were outraged and wanted blood, Rioli would have been sanctioned in some way.

That should be irrelevant
Ok I’ve bought tickets. At crows games I’m in western stand. This week level 5 Eastern stand. Looking forward to it

A bigger deal out west.

Yup, but that's no different from usual. Even the worst midfield units in the league will have a field day against you if you don't put them under decent pressure.
If it's that kind of game, sure, though flying the flag/biffo probably works in Ports favour more than ours. We are the favorites after all, and they can be a rather emotional team, whereas we're a group that has a history of being awful at handling the emotional aspect of football.
This is one to Crowbot.

Max is the ideal match up I’d have thought.

No Keane best matchup for Georgiades as need a bigger size.
Worrell could do the job, but prefer him to help out double teaming instead.
Not really, the vehemence and outcome requested of the complainant carries a lot of weight. Just thinking though, seeing Taryn Thomas mentioned, I don’t reckon he was suspended after his first transgressions coming out.

Brownlow Medallist
What if he sends his mates after him tho
If you're contemplating going I would suggest you get your tickets in a hurry. They're expecting 250k+ Port members to fly in from Shanghai.
My predictions: Crows by 12 points. Rankine to win the showdown medal. Rioli in handcuffs by cob Thursday.

Port will surely come out breathing fire. It'll be all bravado huff and puff. Crows will match it no probs. It's a showdown.
Then we will ****ing smash the campaigners.

Has been no hint of aged being rested. Would be a huge surprise if he was
One change only - Hinge for Nank, probably Berry sub again

They are wearing the prison bars.. no better time to to completely crush them and humiliate them if we can
I have changed my mind. Despite Brodie Smith playing better than anyone could have expected, he will miss out.
To maintain the best structure, we have to play our best available 7 defenders.
In - Hinge. Out - Smith
The second step is to select our best inside midfielder rotations. That means Soligo, Rankine Dawson and Peatling with a little help from Taylor, Berry and Rachele.
The third area is outside mids/wingmen. Cumming will be one but sadly Nank played himself out of this spot.The options are Sholl, Jones, Dowling and Curtin. I would go Curtin and bring Berry into the 22.
That just leaves the Sub. So…..
In - Draper. Out- Nankervis.
Sid is as likely as anyone to have an impact as the Sub and it would be great to give him his first taste of a Showdown.
In reality, I would not be surprised if one of the following are named in the 23. Smith, Nankervis, Jones, Pedlar, Murphy or Cook. I would be surprised, but not disappointed if Edwards, Bond or Ryan are named in the 23.

If I was a crows player I would absolutely be saying stuff like "can't wait to see what you text me after the game" or "hey did you need my phone number so you contact me directly" or "you know email is probably a better option to contact me"
Imagine if they are wearing the prison bars, you could really sledge Silly Willy

They're wearing PB's this week
Not today.
Had them weeks ago
I think this works against them TBH. Constantly bleating about the old SANFL Port Adelaide, when they should be focussed on creating a real AFL history / dynasty. I reckon it's dividing them rather than uniting them.

Hinge for Nank - probably the most straightforward changes this year assuming everyone else fit?
That did make me smile, he must have Crouch confused with someone else.
Showdowns can get a little ugly in the crowd sometimes, and this one already has a bit of a sour smell about it. I’m glad they’re not having the players beat up the ‘hatred’ this week, it could go sideways easily enough.
Hoping for a super hard fought game without nastiness on or off the field.
