Dusty out is huge though. Big test for our boys interested to see if anyone stands up in his absence.
He hasn't had his best season so far and it will probably do the boys good mentally to go into battle without him, I'm pretty bloody happy it's against Port though.
I see he's off to visit his dad, I wonder if he sits out next week to make a 3 week break and come back fully refreshed?

Hasn't been as good as last year but he's still having a really good year. A lot of mid year AA teams have him around the mark.
Yeah interesting decision to let him fly that way especially with an injury. Perhaps he's been down a little not being able to see his dad for a while & club is letting him go for a week. Either way good test of depth & if he's out for to long it might see us drop right back to pack with our tough run coming up.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
Even without Martin I find it hard to make a decent case for Port this week. They just haven’t shown enough for long enough. After 2 fails on the road, I reckon Richmond will be primed for tomorrow night.

Port couldn't beat a half strength Geelong team at home. How the hell are they going to beat a 95% fit Richmond? Even the Power's win against the Crows was no major achievement. Have a look at the Cows form lately. Don't get me wrong, I like the Power (my 2nd fave team) but they are dead set ordinary.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Yep 100% agree with you there. Port are simply no good and poorly coached. Will still get done.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

I would've thought it would suit Port more as Richmond a bit more smoother.
Richmond have more scrappers in their side I reckon mate .. Think one of the knocks on Port this year (and in recent times) has been their lack of grit, not so with Richmond.
