Any team can beat any team on any day, but for you guys to write Geelong off you are CRAZY! they didnt win 15 in a row and dominate in such a close season as this one by fluke! Sysdney proved on the weekend that they are struggling for form, i dont think you can write any team off this year as it has been one of those years, but im sticking to my guns that Geelong will bring home the silver wear this year.
I think he meant Geelong are resting Ling and Selwood as they are more important in a finals campaign when it counts not in a minor round that we have already won the minor premiership in.
As for our forward line not being strong? what drugs are you on?!?!?!?!?! fark man we are the highest scoring team in the competition! You my friend are really a one eyed supporter arent you? you cant even give credit where credit is due! Just for arguements sake top 5 highest scoring teams:
Geelong: 2397
Port Adelaide: 2197
Fremantle: 2169
Essendon: 2060
Carlton: 2059
Wanna talk defence? Top 5 defence scores:
Geelong: 1561
Sydney Swans: 1629
Adelaide: 1637
Hawks: 1714
Brisbane Lions: 1740
Now tell me again how sh!t Geelong are? Look at the facts mate they are the best team getting around, and where beatin by a better team ON THE DAY.
i never said geelong were ****. im not a one eyes supporter at all.
as for scoring, would you call port adelaides forward line strong? i certainly wouldnt. but it's an all round scoring effort from midfielders also so going only on the basis of volume of points is completely incorrect.

27-08-07, 17:14 GMT+10#123 So in your opinion brisbane forward line is strong because it relies on 1 or 2 players to bag a heap?
Like brown 40+ goals last 6rounds and brenan 25+ goals last few rounds

28-08-07, 00:14 GMT+10#125 My favourite memory of Port Adelaide was round 1 in 1997 at the MCG in Port's first game where early in the first quarter Ian Downsborough (who they traded the #1 pick for) got knocked out and was never any good after.
Also liked how when they entered the comp they were bragging about giving Adelaide a six year head start and that they would win a flag before they did. Adelaide went on to win the flag that year and the next lol.

28-08-07, 16:24 GMT+10#127 lol, all you crows supporters - show us your good recruits. By far, the crows have the worst recruiters in the whole AFL. Didn't you pick Riley up before Judd or something stupid like that? No rising star nominations since 2001 as well.
Also my favourite memory of the crow was in 2005 when they finished top after the minor round, and then lost to st kilda in the 1st qualifying final. Then they lost to West Coast in the preliminary final. Yeah that was pretty funny. And then there was that time against West Coast last year when you lost another preliminary final to them. Dam you crows supporters sure must hate West Coast.

28-08-07, 16:52 GMT+10#128 Yeah we do hate em, every team has a team that they struggle against and West Coast is ours, anyway, play finals last year did you? Lol.......12th was it?
And whats wrong with Riley, he's become a ***n great player, almost 40 possessions last Sat night.....must be sh1t house huh?

28-08-07, 17:00 GMT+10#129 lol but still.... Riley over Judd? He's not bad but I seriously reckon Boak for the Power will develop into a better player than Riley. Yeah Port did finish 12th last year, so what we were rebuilding. Remember back to 2004, what did the Crows finish then? I think it was about 11th or 12th.
It will be an interesting game this Friday night, both the Crows and Collingwood battling it out for finals spots. I reckon Rocca was a bit lucky to get off, Eddie has been bribing the tribunal again... Unfortunately I don't think the crows can make it.

28-08-07, 17:13 GMT+10#131 Well thats not suprising coming from a port supporter is it....
Can you predict the future? FFS, who cares about Judd, who's to say he would have fit in at the Crows? Who knows man....
And my point about you finishing 12th was because you were very quick to point out we lost to WC in the PRELIMINARY FINAL....
I agree 100% Rocca was 'lucky' to get off, Eddie must be slippin someone something behind closed doors...
We'll see what happens Friday night, im confident they will win.

28-08-07, 18:01 GMT+10#133 lol, I'm not bagging everyone else, I've just grown to despise the crows, thats all. A bit of friendly banter about the footy never hurt anyone did it?!
Port aren't the benchmarks of the AFL, I never said that, I believe West Coast and now Geelong are. Port I think have suprised everyone this year, including myself.
I acknowlege that their are other decent teams in the AFL, I'm not a one-eyed supporter like some *cough*Collingwood*cough* supporters I know, who won't even acknowledge when another side is doing well.
I don't see how bagging everyone else is "typical" of a Port supporter, I think you'll find all die-hard footy followers supporting any team out there bag other teams.

Im the first to admit ill bag other teams but ill also give credit where credit is due. The only team i HATE is collingwood, due to them thinking they run the AFL as if Rocca got off! who's **** is eddie sucking??!!
