SA Footy

north beat port by 74 points
glenelg beat north by 48 points (& took the foot of the pedal)

so with that recent form i ask how bad is port ?

port are shit at the moment but they will come out firing after the week off.
look out sturt.................

Yeah, Port handled the bye woefully this week.

(but seriously, good to see a number of Port boys down at the Bay today)

Central beat North by 35 points, and Sturt beat Central by 7. So I make them 164 points worse than Sturt. Sounds like a bath this week!

boys, stop giving port ammo to use on sturt this week.

get fired up sturt, port will be hungry for a win.

Just imagine if Chocco makes the following changes this week, although i doubt they will.

Out
Wilson - should've come back through the magpies anyway
Tredrea - carrying more kg's than a contestant on the biggest loser at the moment
Krakouer -
Ebert -
Peter Burgoyne - his form hasn;t been great

Pearcey has been crap too

Can't believe we haven't managed to fill this thread with anti-Port vitriol. How times have changed - are they not worth the energy any more?

Who?

With no Waterhouse, I can't see Port getting up this weekend. How bad are they? Well, I'm still not quite sure where they'll finish at the end of the season... If I was forced to make a prediction - 7th in front of Glenelg and West.

Oh, c'mon DW, you know - our second AFL franchise.

Actually, I shouldn't be so rude about Port. They do have two grand finals up on us.

And it looks like that's not going to chnage anytime soon

Yes, we are completely pathetic at the moment.

But the one good thing other clubs have, it's the out most respect for Port Adelaide. They may hate us, but they respect us.

No matter how bad we get, no team ever underestimates us.

I dunno at the moment I feel more pity for you, than respect, for what you have become since 2000

But given my lot have done naff all since your dastardly plot to cripple us (the Bays) in 1990 by forcing the formation of the Crows I'm no in position to really criticise anyone elses team.....

Reakon that's a myth a lot of Port supporters like to perpetuate.

I don't buy it...

Agree that it is myth now but back in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's it may have been true.

I really think that the forming of port power has attributed to the demise of port adelaide in the SANFL.

It must hurt that port power have taken over alberton oval it would have been better for all if they had shared AAMI with the crows and built their Allan Scott facility next to AAMI, after all they officially belong to the SANFL don't they?

Officially yes....

Mentally, I think it might be the other way around.
