returning to the AFL side could mean Ollie Lord drops back down here. Lycett (back) and Pasini (corked thigh) to be assessed.

Note: This game is the day before the AFL game so the sub (EG: Evans) won't play, and perhaps another player might be held back.

After our first win of the season, we stay in 9th spot.

Lycett injured or needs a rest?

Got to get Lord and Hayes out of the 50 metre arc. Lord plays further up the ground Hayes rotates off the bench with Dante doing most of the ruck (we've obviously given up on Hayes) leave the inside 50 to Scully.

I know it is extremely unlikely but I'd like either Moore or Weidemann on our AFL list as the midseason pick.
Reward for effort.

What about Montgomery

With our growing injury list these guys including Monty are getting a chance to strut their stuff. Is it making the Maggies stronger?

 

[Sir Watchalot]

What about Montgomery

Monte will do no such thing!

 

[Interstater]

What about Montgomery

Have not seen him play.

 

[Albertonarmy]

Have not seen him play.

Seemed to go OK yesterday, plays as a small defender

I dont think Weed has a chance really at AFL level, but I'd love to see Moore get given a go.

 

[PortVic]

From small sample I’ve watched of the Maggie’s side on the AFL app. I have been impressed with Barkla, probably not getting enough of it. But when he gets it seems clean and a smooth mover.

Do agree, very clean, smooth mover, nice skillset, definitely one to watch for the future.

So Lycett is fit and still not being picked for AFL.

Don't question it just enjoy it.

The times they are a changing

Visentini named 1st ruck on Port website

 

[tribey]

Why are Norwood so bad? Saving their pennies for the 20th license?

9th v 10th

What a derby!

For a 1st game of league footy last week i thought Short was great keen to see more of him.

Named in the centre for today's game.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Norwood without a win this year, the umpires would be loading the catapult to shoot us into the sun.

 

[1954]

I just hope the blokes representing the Maggies are switched on for today's game as I have seen much better Port teams pushed to the limit by some fairly ordinary nord teams at Alberton in past decades.

Regardless of form or respective ladder positions their players would often lift for games against us, and they have given us some absolute smackings in night games at the parade in the last 10 years or so.

We will get done today one way or another
