The new era: changes v Port
- Thread starter BrisTiger24
- Start date
Miller and Pickett are named in the VFL team, so it looks like Macca will be the sub, and Mansell (AFL emergency), will travel to Adelaide just incase something goes amiss at the captain's run or pre-game warm-up before the game.

Back to changes against Pordadalayde. Woo hoo, another couple of debutants get a chance to strut their stuff at senior level. Just reward for a season of hard work in the magoos.
Obviously very grateful that we're playing away interstate for the final irrelevant game to close off a shitfull year of footy. Hopefully we don't get totally obliterated on Sunday and the squad at least give an honest accounting of themselves.
Will be closely watching all our young, inexperienced players and hoping they can have moments of impact on the game. Last thing I want to see is senior players going through the motions n simply looking forward to Mad Monday and their off season get away. Set a standard for the young blokes to follow, work hard n give the Pordadalayde bogans a proper dose of hurry up before the finals.

Out McIntosh and Pickett based on form,
looks a step in the right direction.
And very pleased to see Baker and Bauer back together with Brown and Trezise, who are to play their first, and
Miller back also.
Noah this week actually named in the forward line is a first and Dion managed.
Wouldn’t surprise if Dion does find his way back to the Gold Coast and McIntosh and Miller to the West Coast.

The term flogged comes to mind. I think it’s gunna be an ugly one.
I too think we're in for a heavy loss. It's a huge task in front of a rabid crowd against a top 4 team still with much to play for.
Just hope to see glimpses of talent from the new players.

If we can keep it under 5 goals we have done extremely well.
Pity they have scheduled the VFL game vs the Pies pretty close to the start of Port vs Tigers on Sunday.
So tossing up between going to watch the young boys play to make finals at Punt Road ( wife’s wish )
OR
Going to the local pub as I’ve cancelled Kayo and Foxtel ( crap footy shows ) to watch what MAY be like some have posted a Sydney Swans last round 2016 massacre…
I think the VFL wins! Points with the wife always helps with ‘negotiations” down the track!

Given the inexperience wouldn’t think we can win it but this will be the quickest team we have put in for most of the year.
Expect Mansell to come in for Rioli and a massive effort from the bounce.
If we do happen to win Mini a shoe in.

What a miserable way to finish a bloody lousy season.
Tiger supporter wishing over optimistically for a boil over win against Pordadalayde on their dunghill in front of their rabids. Realism tells me we'd be lucky to escape with an under ten goal hiding.
Just gunna hope that our seniors respect the colours and put in an honest performance right to the final siren and that our group of future youngsters all have those little moments of impact that stand them in good stead for pre season and promise for next year.

Result irrelevant.
All I want to see is the young boys attack the footy, tackle hard and show connection.

nothing to lose game for us, so much to learn from how our youngsters handle the heat
Funny thing is we lose about 1000 games experience from last week
We have gone from one of the oldest to one of the youngest teams in 7 days
Incredible

It arguably suits Port Adelaide better to lose against us than to win…….Win and they have to go to Brisbane to play the Lions who are extremely hard to beat up there…….Lose and, (assuming Melbourne wins and ends up on the same points as PA but higher percentage), they play the Pies at the MCG. Of course they won’t want to flirt with form as they say, but there are definitely reasons for Port not to beat us.
I was wondering the same. I wouldn’t want to be going to the Gabba at the moment.
