Your mob is playing great footy today. I'll call it the way I see it, I tipped Port today along with Richmond, I may get them both wrong but who cares. Both are giving a good account of themselves and are playing honest football.



Go the Power!!!! I hope you guy's win, if you do, will make a serious tilt for a top 4 berth, if not more.


It's all about heart and determination, and the Power are displaying that.

And if they give up a 36 point lead and lose?

There fitness is not up to scratch. They went all out in the first half and then played survival footy in the second half. Not sure what the boys were doing in the pre-season but it has failed miserably.

Lose to Lions after being +40 Points up, giving up a big lead against the eagles, +30 points lead against the Hawks.

These fade outs are killing us.

Well that loss puts them down with the also run, might just make the eight.

That's what I was thinking. Twice now they have given up big leads. It can't be because of skill or they would not have got the lead.
Mental or fitness or both.
I do think the Hawks are the fittest team in the comp though.

It was poor tactics that hurt us in the end. When Hawthorn got a run on in the last quarter, we dropped too many players back in defence. You can argue that it was the rucks and midfields fault but they're hardly going to be desperate to win it when theres a 2 on 5 situation to look forward to. Dissapointing in the end seeing as our structure was fantastic in the first but Hawthorn are a quality side and worked out the matchups very quickly and effectively.

Good to see Pearce and Westhoff hit some great form as well and Ebert was handy too.
