This will be an interesting final.
Port at home should have the advantage but go into the final series with having only won 2 games against top 8 sides.
Eagles won the Adelaide Oval clash whilst Power won the Domain Stadium clash. So 1 all and both winning away.
Adelaide Oval will hold no fears for the Eagles then. Eagles stumbled into the 8.
Hard to predict but maybe a slight learning to the Weagles and Priddis playing last games of career,
Reckon Port may just get over the line.
Port in a blowout
Port have never beaten us at AO
You just feel like that streak is going to be broken :'(
We've been extremely polarizing this year - I just hope the good version of us comes out to play today because if it does, then we've got a game and we're every chance

Port in a blowout
This is my fear though
We've never beaten the Iggs at AO, so why should that change today?
We aren't good enough, although I really hope we find a way.
Just read today is the 5th Anniversary of the Death of John McCarthy as well so maybe will spur Power on.
Ryder to dominate, Port to win in a close one.
Round 7

I love this, lost every stat but contested possessions, never behind all day haha
I feel like this is the only way we can win again today :P
I think Ryder should be investigated for match-fixing. He looks like he's trying to help West Coast win :P

Can we retroactively award Sauce the AA ruck spot?
Wow Wee extra time :o
Finally got a decent final. ;)
Told yas it'd be a blowout
And the umpires decide the game. Like they should
Off the scales, unbelievable, carn the wiggles #wagon 8)

Shocker

Need a Bex and lie down. :-\
All out of adrenaline...so wrecked right now...zzzzzzz
Getting p...ed off with the Shuey free kick. Live motion it looked there. Slow motion and the interpretation of the "new law, probably not". We had our chances of winning the the game well before that. Congrats to the Eagles, and you get a beat up Giants as well.

The free kick definitely wasn't there, but when you kick 10.16 (to 12.6) including 2.4 (to 3.0) in extra time you most likely don't deserve to win. Port definitely lost it more than umpiring/ducking did. If it's any consolation, you get slightly better draft picks (as does Brisbane of course!).

Tackle the hips and Port win the game. All you need to do is learn how to properly tackle and you'd be playing this week!
Regardless I think GWS will thump us and would have done the same to Port

Certainly hope you're right mate! Would love a dig at the Tiggies in a prelim :P
Does this take the lead for game of the season now? Any other year it probably does but there's been so many good ones it probably doesn't this year hahaha
Feels good knowing I was one of only 41k (Yes, ONLY 41k where were you Port fans??) that were there live.
Result sucked but the players will be better because of it. Hinkley had the option to play guys like Trengove and Broadbent and decided youth in Bonner, Howard, Marshall was the way to go. I respect that call 100%.
I think we would've taken it to the Giants, I think WC will do the same but whoever gets through that game, PLEASE BEAT THE TIGERS! Hopefully for Eagles fans Chris Donlon umpires again ;) (#notevensalty)

I'd post some of carlton's losses this year, but doesn't FF cap your posts at so many characters?
Actually, one of the good things about such a close season is you can really talk shower about any club. Crows lost to North, Tigers choked a few times on the trot, Cats and Giants bombed in their PFs, etc. Good fun all around.

What are you on about? Just posting the game of the season, the fact that Essendon was on the receiving end after you were up on your high horse was purely coincidental ;)
Great game, great season
