vs Port

[VelvetSledge]

Okay boys,

I think it's a 70:30 game, in our favour. Why?

Well, we're in great form, and are full of heart, while Port look to be out of form and full of KFC.

Tredrea = Can't do it anymore
Ebert = Got 1 kick
Burgoynes = Soft as butter, can't dive into the packs
Cornes = Makes terrible decisions and turns it over.

Whereas us...

Hird = At 34 is still playing some of the best footy we've seen from him
Fletcher = Is arguably the best Full Back in the competition.
Michael = Is really starting to find form in the red and black
Slattery = This young fella is the best tackler in the competition.
McVeigh = Is finding the footy a lot more often then he has been in the past, and is setting up some damaging attacks.


There you have it, give us some thoughts

Cheers

In case you didn't notice our team sucked balls last year and they are far from ball suckers this year.

I mean when you consider the like of Lloyd, Michael, Winderlich, Davey did not play for us either at all or for significant periods of last season, then it really is not hard to see where the significant improvement in our team has come from.

Exactly, plus Port are so out of form it's not funny.

 

[J.Hetfield]

They are out of touch but if you dont think they will lift against us with all the press they are copping over here yor crazy...im confident in our ability but nervous about them..We need to put McPhee in the middle to cover Stants. Bring in Lonergan for run and grunt. The only change.

They were out of form last year too.

We actually went into the game as favourites.

We've got a very good chance of winning 3 interstate games in a row this year and you bring up results about last year!
We're a different side with the likes of Lloyd, Davey, Winders, Michael, Hird (in career best form... Almost) added to our team.
Not to mention the giant killer Bolts! Re-Sign him all ready
