Which Forward line would you rather have, Crows or Port?
Last week there was a poll on the best forward lines in the AFL and laughed when i saw that Ports were up there and i got laughed at when i said the Crows forward line is much better and have more options.
Call be bias but i just cant see how Ports is better?

Crows:

HF: Keays Fogarty Neal-Bullen
F: Walker Thilthorpe Rachele/Rankine



Port:

HF: Powell-Pepper Lukocious Berry/Rozzee
F: Rioli Georgiadis Lord



Thoughts?

But Port has the better goal kicking mids to cover any deficiencies IMO

Whichever one has Rankine. Freak

Tore us a new one early last year. Nearly got you's over the line. Impossible to catch out of a stoppage

Only soft tissues injuries will stop him. He pulled his hammy in that game last year in the dying minutes too

I'd go the Crows but Port's would probably be

Port:

HF: Powell-Pepper Lukocious Berry/Rozzee
F: Resting Butters/ Hornet Georgiadis Rioli

Port's got a few of the best crumbing forwards, but only 1 decent tall forward. Similar to The Crows who only have 1 decent tall forward, too, Walker completely dropped off, he was the difference in 2023. Probably pick Port's just because their crumbers are real clutch players. See that Hawthorn game where their crumbers Rioli and Byrne-Jones snatch the win off Hawthorn with 23 seconds to go.

Crows comfortably.

Crows better KPFs, Port have the edge in the smalls if Rankine is meant to be playing midfield.
Rankine as a mid does make the goal kicking abiity of their midfields closer to even though.

Which probably should be neither for most of this year as he needs to be at least 75% mid

Ports gun midfield keeps them contending. Crows have them covered in ruck, defence and forward.

Fog, Fithy and Tex are decent

Fog, Fithy and Tex are decent

Tex was at his peak in 2023, he dropped off considerably in 2024. I would have picked The Crows just because of Tex if this were the start of last year. I was really impressed with Port's crumbers in 2024, they got Port over the line many times.

Imo Fogarty is at least as good as any of the Port KPFs, and id have Thilthorpe ahead of them all.
Forget Tex, I still would prefer the Crows KPFs
