Game Day Port vs Carlton, Round 20, 2024 @ Marvel Stadium

[Manhattan Bronx]

Here we are again, another week another game. Will we capitalise on the outs for Carlton and play the true Port Adelaide way, or will we crumble under the slightest form of pressure?

Have a sneaky feeling we'll snag the win, but track record makes me think Carlton will beat us by 32.

Mitch to kick 3, Dixon to kick 4 behinds, Jones to cause 5+ turnovers.

 

[Marmozet]

Have a bad feeling we’re going to pull out a win tonight with Carlton’s outs

 

[davesnothere]

We should bolt in.

There's no excuse to drop this.

 

[jac147]

The baggers have struggled lately, even struggled last week against the Roos. A winnable game if there ever was one. I’m putting my head on the chopping block here, Port by 11 points.
Go the Power!

I'm just glad its on Friday so we can get it over with early

This has all the makings of a Ken special.

Go shorter in a big game only to cop and injury or two and get badly exposed

I actually think we are more dangerous shorter, we just need another Willie Rioli

Imagine if we beat GWS or GC

 

[Steve Dore]

Carlton by 21.

Hinkley to blame everyone but himself.

[Coobk001]

Haven't beaten a side that's finished top 4 away from home in many years.

Can't see that changing tonight.

Hawthorn at Etihad, 2015?

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Can't say I'm overly confident about winning tonight's prime time Blockbuster.

Blues by 19 points.

 

[powerfan07]

Can't wait to see Kenny DBJ and Ollie embrace after the full time siren. Not because we won because the boys backed the winner in the last race for the night.

Thought I'd seen hinkley at the shops this morning, turned out to be an old Chinese women

Port by 18000 points

 

[Andre]

It's going to be an unconvincing win, that ensures all pressure off Ken for the rest of the H&A season, whilst giving zero hope that we'll make any impact at all in finals. Woot!

Gee, what a great result that would be

Woohoo

Hawthorn at Etihad, 2015?

Yep.

Away against the top 4 our last win was Round 21, 2015. The Brandon Ahchee and Sam Gray breakout game......

Here's a breakdown:

2024: (0-?) Wont play Sydney or Bris away, Carlton is this week, If Freo hold their spot we play them in the last round.
2023: (0-3) Brisbane (48), Carlton (50) and Collingwood (71) - All 3 of our biggest losses, next 2 were to Adelaide.
2022: (0-3) Geelong (35), Melbourne (14 - TIO), Collingwood (6)
2021: (0-1) Brisbane (49)
2020: (0-2) Brisbane (37), Geelong (60)
2019: (0-3) Brisbane (17), Richmond (38), Collingwood (39)
2018: (0-3) West Coast (42), Collingwood (51), Hawks (3 - Tas)
2017: (0-3) Adelaide (84), GWS (31), Geelong (2)
2016: (0-2) Sydney (67), GWS (86)
2015: (1-2) Freo (7), Sydney (10), Hawks (22)

So since 2015, we are 0 W - 20 L - Averaging a Loss of 41.5 pts.

Good observation. Another reason why the 56% W/L is a smokescreen, masking our inability to compete with the top teams.

Wow, that's some serious blasting of piss

 

[Visenfest]

We won’t win this. Carlton by 6 goals.

 

[Contested Marx]

This will be great, a whole weekend for stickerman to get it up and out there

The longer it goes the closer we are to that win. So even in a loss its a positive.
