Have tipped Hawks too, have three good ins and surely respond. Melbourne never do well as favourites. Rest of games picked themselves, this one the only tough one.

Ironically I think the only dead certainty this week are the winless, bottom placed Swans.

Dead certainty? I give the Lions a real chance, but will give the Swannies one last chance.

Same. Picked Swans in all knockout comps. Deserve everything I get if they get rolled.

Always entertaining contests between WC and Port.
Stats say port is one of the best defensive teams this season, in saying that you wouldn't expect Brisbane,Carlton,Fremantle forwards to worry you all that much. The games Port have lost, Walker 4 goals, Patton 6 and against the Swans Franklin kicked 4, but Port still won well. WC don't lose to many games if Kennedy kicks 4+ goals, so huge match up for whoever gets him.
If Port use the ball by Bombing long to Dixon, McGovern and Barrass will have a field day, teams that have torched WC this season have used small forwards and kept the ball low, taking both of WC marking backmen out of the game(Richmond,Hawks and St Kilda to a point)
Both teams very good in close, Boak,Wines/Ebert v Priddis,Mitchell, Sheed but it's the showdown between Shuey/ Gaff vs Gray/Polec that will determine the match. Ryder should have Giles covered, but Giles has shown he is no pushover.
Should know pretty early if WC have come to play, if Port can hold them up and make them go down the line, they should be easy pickings for Port. If WC move the ball like they have before at Adelaide oval, Kennedy will become and issue and can win the match of his own boot.

The Demons will beat the Hawks I reckon. Jesse Hogan back straightens them up and being weak in the ruck division shouldn't be an issue against the Hawks, despite the West Coast result.

You've got a good record but that is with blokes like Lycett, Cox, Naitanui. This time you've got Giles. No pushover maybe but this time they don't have Lobbe they have Ryder. That tips the scales in favour of Port.

I do wonder about the standard of the VFL. If he's best on field in the magoos (and apparently he was), from what I've seen of him this year, that means the standard of the VFL is rrrrruuubbbbiisssshhh!
