As opposed to the highly successful "stick with a clearly failing plan" tactic? Plenty of blokes point to being dropped at a particular point in their careers as a major turning point for just them as individuals. But I'm not talking about that big a deal, just the other blokes around lifting a fraction.

The only minnows in the AFL are your pathetic excuse for a club.

Possibly true, but we won't be "winning" the spoon

Must have been watching a different game.
Cant believe a team could win (let alone by 45 points) after making so many clangers.
Melbourne were deplorable especially with their pathetic kicking for goal that kept Port in the game.
Port arnt within Cooeeee of being a finals contender and anyone that thinks otherwise are illusional !!!!

I think you mean delusional.
Maybe I am deluded because I think they are within cooooeee of being a finals contender. Check the ladder, we are one win and % off 8th spot with 12 games remaining. And we will play our best footy (like last year) in the second half of the year. And you're a Port Supporter? :?

Only room for one Adelaide side IMO, the Crows draw looks a little easier from here, could all come down to the Showdown in round 22
