From the papers

The Age

"Port Adelaide's "annoyance campaign" to influence the AFL top eight kicked off in ruthless fashion on Saturday night when it derailed West Coast's finals hopes.

On a wet and slippery night at Subiaco Oval, lowly Port Adelaide staged a thrilling comeback to post 13 goals to three in the second half on its way to a historic first victory over the 1990s powerhouse.

Irate Eagles coach Ken Judge labelled the 16.11 to 10.11 loss an "embarrassment" for the club and raised doubts about its ability to play finals football."
