PORT Adelaide's senior players have warned their first-year teammates to be ready for the most physical game of their career as the club today began plotting for the the Showdown.
The warning comes as Justin Westhoff, who has been in career-best form in the Power's first two matches, also cautioned a slow start like the one Port dished up against Greater Western Sydney could be disastrous against Adelaide on Sunday.
Port's newcomers include the eye-catching Ollie Wines and Jake Neade, who have come to terms to living in a two-team town but are yet to play in a local derby.
"It'll probably be today and at training Thursday that we put a focus on the Crows,'' Westhoff said. "It's obviously a big game for us; we've lost the last three against them.
"I want to be able to walk down the street next week not getting heckled and I'm sure the supporters feel the same way.

"It probably means a little more than the four points this week.
"I think they (the rookies) have come to grips with the two-team town thing already and they'll look at past game when it's been pretty tough.
"It'll be a big game, physical. We expect nothing less.''
