Game Day Port v Richmond - Rd 11 2020

[Incarnate]

We can’t go in too cocksure, it will be a hard contest, Richmond will grab any chances they get and if we are even the slightest bit soft around the ball they will take it with both hands and devour us.

Reckon we win this. Something about our group this year - just taking it in their strides. Think Peps will have a huge game.

 

[Byrons Firen]

At least we’ll have Dixon and Georgiades to kick to this time instead of Dylan Grimes.

If 'effing' Grimes takes double digit marks again i'll throw up. Sheesh it was hard enough last year watching him marking unopposed time and time again.

Anyway enough about them, i'm hoping for big games from Ladhams and Woodcock because they've been shown no respect.

Slyce to do the grunt work Pistol to clean up around the ground.

Hope the boys lift for three milestones

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Are the tigers flying in today as we did same day (although much earlier) or were they able to yesterday?

 

[Shane_Mag]

Great opportunity to make a statement we are the real deal.

 

[Portmagpies36]

Second massive test this year, failed miserably against Brisbane let's hope this is not a repeat.

 

[gbear]

I've got a crazy feeling we are going to blow them out the water in the first quarter and make a real statement.

I wish I shared your optimism.

 

[Power Raid]

We will be prepared for this game...

When did Hopoate become the tiger's officer for morale and bonding?

 

[backtozero]

I had to read that twice. I thought you were referring to the scoreline and immediately concluded weather conditions must be extreme.

It would be painful to watch but I'd be happy with the 4 points.

I live not far from the Oval and it hasn't rained all day.

Got a ticket, thanks RussellEbertHandball , Eddie Dingle . Super excited to go to my first game this season.

With the shorter quarters, what's the average game time now? A couple of hours? I haven't really been paying attention on TV. I might get my wife to pick me up after the game. So 6pm ish, I think. Thoughts?

Edit: also, thanks GB47 for the offer!

Given they only gave SPP something like 40% game time last week recon they must have been saving him for this one.

I would allow an extra 15 minutes. Quarters still go into the late 20 minutes, breaks between quarters are a bit longer and it feels like more time from goal to ball up.

Normal games that start at 4.10 usually finish around 6.45. They are only saving about 6 minutes per quarter so 6.20ish.

I still have doubts about this team even though we are playing better footy. Too many years of hopes being deflated after showing early promise. This is the exact kind of test that will show whether we are a top 4 side or more middle of the road.

For me, this is just about the most anticipated game of the whole season.

 

[Mikey13G]

Are we contenders or pretenders? We will find out in a couple of hours! Let's go Port!!!

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Have we learnt from last year's disaster game against Richmond or are we still like Paul Kelly??

Tell her to collect you out the front of the Cathedral Hotel at 11

For those that buy the AFL Record, apparently this one is the same as the last games.

 

[GB47]

Anyone after a ticket, I have a spare.

 

[Janus]

Dixon has only played in 3 losses against Richmond. 1 was with Gold Coast, 1 was last year when he was coming back from injury, and the other was in 2017 when Robbie couldn’t buy a goal and missed like four in a row.

 

[Incarnate]

Looks like Richmond are going to be taking this game serious, chemist warehouse has a special on the after party necessities...

I remember Graham Cornes saying he used to have channel 7 on in the box while coaching the Crows.

No wonder he was so successful.
