Only 1 club does the fake, tough guy stuff better than Port, and that's Norf.

Just goes to show how talented we are now. Some of our key players can have quiet nights, yet we're still 6 goal up. It's fantastic!

Great first half. We need to remember we are playing on their home turf, so they'll always have periods where they will get on top, but our defence has held firm and we've taken our chances. Special mention to Dom Tyson, who is having a wonderful second half of the season. 16 touches and 4 clearances so far, he's been terrific.

Big 5 minutes coming up. We look a little tired, can't let them get a sniff going in to half time.

Port just kicked one, it's Port 15 to us 52.

Absolutely doc, certainly wasn't taking anything away from us. We've been sensational. They have butchered the ball though and have made terrible errors going forward.

What a hit from Pedersen! Love it!

Port are bloody terrible.

See what Dixon did to Vince? Bunch of pretenders. Think they're tough but they're getting smashed by a team full of kids who want it more.

Horrible 50. We got a couple of shockers like that last week. It's such a costly 50. Well done to Frosty on kicking it, as we need to take all of our chances.

Has the most clearances on the ground as well. Gun.

We are clearly the better side. The only danger is allowing them to stay in the game and the crowd, and umpires, getting right behind them. If we stop that from happening we will win, and possibly win well.

Not really mate. Just a bit slippery.

Their new player, Palmer, gets a kick or too and they can't stop fawning over it. Brereton and Riccuito are terrible.

Yep, spot on. You would hope that our few games in the wet so far this year would prepare us pretty well for it.

I feel like we've got the midfield and the bigger bodies to thrive in the wet tonight. Plenty of players who will enjoy it.

Kenty! DEMONS! Loving this start!

We are playing well early. Port getting a few free kicks, but that's to be expected over there.

Every time I see your username I think of this: "Oh it's a scythe!" Not sure how many will get that, but it always makes me smile nonetheless!

I think we might need to be patient tonight. Port, on their home turf and after last weeks 'effort', will no doubt come out breathing fire and looking to kick a few early goals to get the crowd behind them. You can see the downhill skiers now - Wingard, Gray, Ebert, Dixon, Westhoff etc will all be up and about and I think it may take some time to weather that storm. If we can do that, and limit some of that potential early damage, then we can easily get on top and run all over them as the game wears on. So, if Port do kick the first couple, there is no need to go and jump off the Westgate Bridge.

Michael Jamison has also retired, WJ. Announced this week.

Tessaract are a pretty good band. Your posting, on the other hand... not so much. Nice troll though.

I've seen him kick that distance as well. However, he knows it's slightly outside that range and that's why he rarely kicks them from there. Half the time he looks as though he wants to pass it to someone else.

Veszpremi and Maric? I would hope that your footy nous has improved since then mate...

Yep, sounds like he will miss this week. With Hogan returning you could see that being the only change, and I actually like having Pedersen in our forward line. Gave us a real contest last week, and when he couldn't win it he was at least bringing the ball to ground for the mosquito fleet to pounce on it.
