Really excited about tonight's game & how it will turn out. 

You'd expect Port to bounce back, but hawks are pretty quick, frost is a loss but it's bruests 300th game which they'll be pumped for.

    9 times in the first 11 years, but just 2 in the past 14 (so far). Still, an amazing stat.

    Port better be on from the start.

    Let this Hawks team have a jump would be hard to wind back.

    I feel that because it's at home and the fact they won six in a row that Port can and will fight back.

    I know I previously sang the Hawks strengths prior in this thread but I don't think last week's thrashing has ruled Port out.

    Too much at stake and it's at their home ground.

    I guess it's a toss up. Sums up this year's season.

    Look at us ....we finished 14 th.

    Won three of the games we lost by less than a goal and we would have finished 7 the and the Hawks 8 th.

    It's tough.

    I hate Hawthorn but I hate Port supporters much more.

    Toothless mugs.

    Good money for sure.

    I'd check no chance of rain first.

    But yea if Hawks finally burst it could be a flood.

    How much did last week hurt port psychologically?

    What do we call a tenner...

    We have a lobster, pineapple and a watermelon ( I made that last one up but I'm sure I'm not alone.

    Is it simply a Tenner?

    Dixon out 

    And a little rain about. The latter probably favor Port.

    I'd say the former as well.  He's been in lousy form and will probably retire this year.

    Burton and Dixon....a few talls out.

    Burton one of ports best against Geelong.

    I reckon Port will win this. Could be a smashing but i’d predict a 4 goal win

    They have to come out firing after this disgraceful performance

    I hope the umps don't wreck this.

    Port fans are such nuffies. I do hope they lose.

    The fact is they finished second and got smashed at home. They should not be in this position.

    Either way can't see port or Hawks winning next week. One limping in and the other exhausted from travel.

    given Ports record in home finals you have to wonder why they haven't retired never tear us apart yet. Its a bad joke at this stage

  • Quote

    The booing from Port fans really makes me support the Hawks.

    I hope they tear them a new one.

    Well a second new one after the cats work.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
