Surely not :P  That will kill them off early! Port have been flying for weeks so I'd say no, but last two years!  :o

Tipping Wines and Wingard to gun ;)

haha, patton was the highest scoring forward rookie this round

#justsaying

nah, we'll dominate. GWS forwards are a cut above ports, our KPB above yours, our mids maybe even, our rucks smash yours.

Giants by 15 :p

really?

cause atm we're sitting 1 for none against them... our team is younger and subsequently has more potential to improve over one pre-season as well. Last year we lost to the swans by 60 points and 90 points... last week we lost by 30, in contrast port managed to beat the 16th ranked team last year. Congrats :P

Zip has a point...... GWS are bad, and if they lose to the Giants, the Power are still bad :P

Port will win for McCarthy.

That's fantastic that they are paying tribute to John but emotion won't win them the game. As is frequently said, emotion lasts about 10 minutes after the opening bounce. I still think port should win but they are no garuntee like they seem to think they are. I have never had anything against port but now I hope gws smash em to knock Noz off his high horse :P

[Ziplock]

hahahahahaha

I love how they've tried to pick the only game they think they can win :P

[Noz]

The only reason Giants beat us last season was because they were all up because of Sheedys 1000 game.

Port will not loose.

First Home Game Zip, do you think.

Here I thought it was because they scored more than you :P

mmmm, that is generally how it works....

I suppose the giants might not put their all into it if they feel really bad about mccarthy....

other than that, gg.

TO be fair, they didn't just beat the 16th ranked team, they mauled them ;)

Nope, I agree. Port will not loose, they could lose but they won't loose.

[Ziplock]

just saying- pretty sure port's the only team in the comp to have lost to both gc and gws :P

[Noz]

GWS and GC are the only teams in the AFL that's never played a final.  :P
