I'd back GWSs greatest side against that team! :shock:
(Or any Geelong side from 2007-2011)

and it appears the continual underrating of Port's dominance in the early 2000's continues.

Dominance is proven by premierships, multiple... Brisbane dominated the early 2000's.

Nah **** that. amber is a troll so can be forgiven, but Wedgie is trying to claim legitimacy.

Saying GWS have a better side despite not even coming close to what Port achieved from 2000-2004 is really ignorance beyond belief.

Correct mate.
But you'll get called a troll since the Power faithful don't agree with ya! ;)

Certainly did, but it doesn't mean there couldn't be another dominant side in the same era, we just didn't translate that into finals victories.

But to suggest winning 16 of 22 ( 2001 ) 18 of 22 ( 2002 ), 18 of 22 ( 2003 ) and 17 of 22 ( 2004 ) isn't dominating the competition is just anti-Port Adelaide jargon from regular Port bashers. Across 4 years to suggest winning 69 of 88 (nearly 80% win rate ) isn't "dominant" is just trolling. I'm used to it though, that's why it's great that there's a "friend" and "foe" function on here.

What it suggests is you choked when it mattered!
Do you get a medal for dominating the minor round these days?

Just my opinion, it's not that important. But I did use a SWARM graph to come to it.

The man who intruded onto the Adelaide Oval during Sunday's massive Showdown has been hit with a 12-month stadium ban.

Power fan Jeremy Cortvriend jumped the fence during the third quarter after downing a few beverages and made his way into the centre of the oval before being subdued by security staff.

Cortvriend's actions has forced stadium management to crack down on pitch invaders, increasing the minimum venue ban from three months to 12 months.

The 12-month stadium ban is in addition to any SAPOL bans and fines that may be issued.

On top of the year long stadium ban, Cortvriend will appear in court next month where he is facing a $5,000 fine for his antics.

Could make them fines 10x as much, like he'll pay any of them.

Never said Port weren't great, and this anti port or bashing as you put it... gee!
I just believe winning flags is a way of defining dominance... Going by that same process as you the swans have dominated for nearly a decade. I certainly don't think we have,

What part of medal didn't you get?

They finished minor premiers we know that but they didn't finish it off.

If Hawthorn weren't up and running at the same time as you guys, you would've been dominating.

I agree with Boonbag, anything over a 75% win ratio for a prolonged time is dominance in my eyes.

Geelong dominated in the early 90's but never won a flag.

Disagree mate.
West Coast dominated the early 90's and have 2 flags to prove it.
