I absolutely hate them but geez Carlton are ridiculously red hot at the moment.

Why do you hate them TDK?

I just can't stand them, hate the continuous hype around them over the years (mostly somewhat recent years) despite being a very mediocre team/club on and off field in my footy watching lifetime. Can't keep sacking coaches and expect everything else to suddenly get better, that's just poor management.

Why do you hate them TDK? there's nothing there. It's like the massive cringe of ambays thinking there's some sort of rivalry between an A grade club and a bunch of one cupboard buffet's. Poor bloke, probably still thinks Mother & Son is still cool.
I absolutely despise the scum but have to admit they are playing pretty good footy currently.
Hopefully a meteorite strikes earth this year before a Collingwood v Carlton GF though :)


Carlton v Collingwood GF
I’m getting a stiffy just thinking about it!

Interesting for them at the moment. They beaten the 2 best sides in the last few weeks.

Interesting that a few Collingwood and Carlton supporters I know who sing this tune, weren't denying Port Districts history last night at the 150 year celebrations. You know, change of name, colours, oval, merger and all that. :lol:

Swans will stay in the 8 this weekend. Pretty decent turn around. Massive game in Adelaide next week

I just did a ladder predictor and was surprised that Geelong will finish 6th and the Crows 7th if all the favs wiin. Even though that's unlikely to happen the result amazed me.it had 4 pts difference between 6th and 10th.
Crucial games are Port v GWS, if Port win they will get 2nd and Crows v Swans with the winner likely to be in the finals.

Swans have been quietly sneaking up the ladder with 5 wins on the trot.

Yep huge game for Port this Wedgie with second spot still up for grabs (but Brisbane and Melbourne have a superior percentage).

Hope everyone on here is enjoying the Power celebrate their own heritage with the Tri-Bolt guernsey today (with the original styled numbers) during their turn for retro week. I loved the guernsey when I was a kid.
Both the Port and GWS coaches played in the guernsey too. ;)

Just good to see Port wear their own retro guernsey unlike the prison bars

Yeah, at the time I always said that was there best guernsey, their home and away tops were awful.
Good to see the Power celebrating their formation years.

Didn't take long for the old Prison Bars to be mentioned haha but I tend to agree with you because I get tired of the PB's debate and no debate can be made about them wearing this guernsey.

Port Adelaide wear 1870 on our guernsey because the AFL, the governing body of Australian Rules Football, acknowledges the Port Adelaide Football Club competing in the AFL was formed then.

If you don't believe that's it's because you're an idiot and you're wrong.
