Season 2023 - Port Adelaide

I actually think they can be top 4.
Especially if JHF performs well enough to push Boak or Wines elsewhere.
Marshall has developed well next to Dixon and with Georgiades has lessened the reliance on Dixon’s goal scoring.
Their backline is solid.
They have a good home ground advantage.
It’s not a top 2 team though. So they could get bounced out in 2 games depending on who they draw in week 2.
So, I’d say they are somewhere between 4th and 10th.
I don’t think they have a worse year than last season.

Agree with this.
Can see them climbing into the 8.
I like their young emerging mids

There’s gonna be an almighty squeeze for the the 5-8th ladder spots this year.
Blues, Freo, Dogs, tigers, pies, port…maybe Sydney (likely higher), Good Coast…maybe St. Kilda (likely lower)
Good teams will miss out

Couldn’t squeeze Hardwick in?

Apparently Horne-Francis chucked a massive tantrum at the intraclub game today. Can anyone confirm? I’m gonna enjoy hate watching this guy.

Yup, a mate of mine saw it, this is what he texted me:

"I saw Ryan JHF at a grocery store in SA yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly".

and then drop him on his head.

Sounds like that has already happened.
Huge case of FIGJAM here. It was evident at Norf and is now full blown. Yes, he is talented, but that will only get him so far. I am hopeful that Hobbs surpasses him.

With Fabian Francis as a role model, it’s not surprising. Pond scum.

From Nth big footy board

Looks like JHF did exactly what he did at North last year at Port today.
A couple of flashes of brilliance but hanging his head when things didn’t go his way, giving away 50s for abusing the umpire.
FIGJAM attitude rearing its head early.

Am I the only person who doesn’t like the prison bars?

I think they look alright, but they really rile up Collingwood (and it’s supporters), so huge fan of them.

For a club that is always tooting it’s horn about history it’s strange how the original Blue and White guernsey or the all pink guernsey or the magenta and blue guernsey or the magenta, blue and yellow guernsey all get conveniently erased from the books whilst the Prison bar guernseys that only come in 30 odd years after they were founded has become “their” colours
