Game Day Port vs Richmond - "Yep. Thank you. Have a good day."

[tribey]

Why are Richmond $2.18? Have I missed something?

• We’re at home.
• At night.
• Against an undermanned Richmond.

Just how we like it.

This could be the last hurrah of bombscares onto Dixon.

I’ll be there. If we win I'll be happy for the players and enjoy the game. If we lose I'll be disappointed for them but probably not shattered. I doubt very much whether Ken's future at the club is going to rest on the last couple of games, I reckon it’s already definitely decided one way or the other so I'd much rather the players finish the season well and have some confidence and optimism going into next year.

Exactly. This game will not decide whether we keep Ken or go after Clarkson or another coach. Hoping for a heavy loss is kind of redundant.

We can still win this. The list is good enough I think. They play for each other and they give 100%.

Team work makes the dream work!

Ahhhhhh the old 3 dead rubber season review

If Saints somehow beat Geelong (they won't but indulge me here) we could be officially out of the finals race half way through the last quarter.

I was assuming all other results would go our way which they wont

You guys have got this , Richmonds form says when we need a win - We Dont

plus the Port players will be playing to save Ken

I counter your when we need a win - We Don't

With, when we need a win - We Don't, especially at home

I disagree, but if we do get the choccys we’ll at least be able to say we win more than half our games at Adelaide Oval under lights for the first time since, idk, 2015ish?

This threads are getting closer and closer. The longer Ken is here, the closer they'll cut it. It will get to the GameDay thread not being started until the bounce.

This fixture is PTSD inducing and I will not enjoy it.

Sack Hinkley.

It’s a weird one.

We have the 2014 EF, R4 2021 with no one left on the bench etc.

They have the 2020 PF, Kane Cornes 300th, VFL team beating us in R4 2019 etc.

Hahaha, yeah when I think about how I'll judge Ports 2022, I often think to myself I will judge us on our performance in 3 dead rubbers against teams in the bottom half of the ladder.

I mean top 8, top 4, premierships, those things are nice, but I really want to see a team that wins when it doesn't count.

With the draw at the end of the Primus/Hocking era serving as the singularity from whence it all came

Wait is the game today?

 

[Power Raid]

A port win, lead by our youth would be perfect

Didn't Riewoldt win the Coleman that day? I remember thinking that's the only honour he'd finish his career with...

This made me laugh pretty hard, thanks.

This post is probably the best football related thing that will happen today.

Of all the words I can think of to describe this season, "frustrating" isn't one of them. That would imply significant factors out of our control, which is a long way from reality.

Yeah we've had injuries and covid at bad times, but who hasn't??

Indeed. As they were over the last three weeks.

Sure did, and for a further plot twist, Trent Cotchin got the 3 votes to ultimately tie with Sam Mitchell for the No-Jobe Brownlow

Honestly I reckon if you were to put our injuries in context, ie weighting outs by age and injury history, I think we have probably been one of the luckiest sides this year.

Georgiades and Mead playing SANFL. Expecting Bonner will be the sub. Clurey likely to have a week off.
