You'd probably take Port over 39.5 as well. Our midfield will get crushed.

Hard to say. Yes we are missing Welsh, McVeigh and Reimers, arguably in our best 22.

But. Houli, Licha are back and big ins if they fire. throw in Lovett who is killing it at the moment and watson working his behind off at the clearances. I really think we can win enough footy to kick a score.

Lloydy looks in great nick, hopefully we see big Jay Neagle at it kicking a few sausage rolls.

Jimmy !!! how could you tip against your beloved bombers. Must have been a typo.
Or maybe he was trying to stir us up...
When we win on Sunday i would love to hear what his former team mates say to him.

I'm going with us simply on the hunch I have that we win more Round 1 games than what we lose (over the last 10-15 years)

Can't say that I'd be happy to be proven wrong but if someone has the time and the patience to go through archives of Round 1 matches, go right ahead :)
