There is another gentleman on this board who also wants to pump arseh*le on one of the lords holidays.

I don't see Port winning this one tbh. The crows tend to shellshock our squad and we shut down straight away. Who knows? Houston, JHF, Wines and Boak may just drag everyone into the game by the short and curlies.

 

[Handyandy]

Do we play a 2nd ruck

I would
Our midfield is so good they can kill the crows with a half decent effort in ruck
But if ROB gets on top of Sweet and gives them first use of the ball it’s going to be a very long night

Their fwd line is stacked with very high draft picks

 

[Long live PAFC]

Don’t rush Mitch. Make sure he is finals fit. Hopefully Bergs gets up - he is so crucial to our backline.

Find another way to beat them. Our mids should pump theirs. Sweet vs ROB should be a good contest. Our defence looks much more settled.

Burton as the third tall. Last chance mate.

Clurey in if Bergs doesn’t get up.

Lorenz and Narkle in, Evans to sub.

role this week.

Haven't won a Showdown since around this time, 2022. If this Port team is serious about challenging for a flag, they will show up and win on Saturday night.

Crazy to think that despite sitting 2nd on the ladder with 2 rounds to go, Port are yet to punch their ticket to the finals officially. A Showdown win ensures they can finish no lower than 6th on the ladder, and thus will earn at least 1 home final (not sure if that's a good or bad thing based on prior history). A loss however could drop Port out of the top 4 at the conclusion of next round, and they'd then be relying on other results to help them.

They got nothing else to play for
Haha

 

[Jello_B]

Burton or Williams as leading forwards if Mitch isn't right?

Burton sux

 

[Doctor Feel]

I'd be ok with never seeing Burton in a Port guernsey again. It's been great not seeing his pathetic bullshit 'efforts'.

HIs career is totally up to him from here. He has the ability but unless he finds some ****ing care, he can waste away his contract to delisting.

 

[Schulzenfest]

The 'cherry on top' of what? Finishing 15th?

 

[Jello_B]

Would rather switch Rozee to play the Marshall role and change up the midfield rotation then put Burton in.

Such lofty goals as they head into their early holidays

 

[davo999]

A game where we have to win the midfield battle and contested possession. Sweet will have to do well against ROB , their forward line is very good so we’ll have to guard the turnover well and match their hard run and intensity . Due for a good game from Rioli . Hopefully Georgiades comes back in , if not I’m not sure to tell the truth

 

[Rising Power]

Darcy Fogarty is playing the Ryan Burton role this week.

That's just as embarrassing as our players saying they hate the Crows.

Really nails what the Crows stand for and always have stood for though. "We play for personal glory and stop the Ports"

 

[Jello_B]

Bergman is a good match up for Walker I think. Can’t see us brining in Clurey. And didn’t Clurey (when he used to get regular games) normally get owned by Walker anyways.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

We haven’t won a showdown where we are in finals contention since 2021.

The last showdown we won was a dead rubber game.

 

[TeeKray]

If Georgiades doesn't play I reckon JHF forward is the way to go.

 

[Powerade 08]

Think McEntee will come in. Wouldn't mind Lorenz but I think they'll prefer AFL experience.

Should be a very different game - Normally go in expecting to get torched by their small forwards.

No corpse of Jonas, Burton or Williams this week. and Lachie is playing ok.

 

[JimmyBC]

Definitely an old Kennytester this one because this is the 2024 GF for the Camries and we generally roll into these games like an old man waddling down to the deli for a litre of milk.

A home final is a great thing (either way).

We need two of him
