2nds Port Adelaide vs Sturt - Round 6 @ Alberton

[RossFC]

Sunday May 11th 2:10pm on Mothers Day (Academy at 11:25am)

Byrne-Jones, Hitchcock, Ah Chee in the mix to come back.

Also due to Hartlett and Carlile coming back in to the Power 2 more players will drop down to the Maggies.

Will be taking my Sturt supporting girlfriend down to Alberton for this one. Top of the table match!

 

[Powerstufff]

Will be good to see Hitchcock back. He has been busting his guts for an AFL recall.

 

[chiwigi]

Looking forward to this!

 

[RossFC]

Also forgot to mention it's 1st vs 2nd

Hopefully a few Port supporters make it along. These guys are playing some seriously exciting football.

kirkwood is in ripping form, magarey favourite along with summerton and mitchell. (rookie list him and get him back)

Anyone know if this is the televised match next weekend? I know that there is a televised match next Sunday, but it could also be Glenelg v Roosters. I think it can safely be said that nobody wants to see that.

Will be nice to see a sell out, 1 v 2

I m due back home next month for a visit and will make sure it is a home game to watch, hopefully the nephew will be back in play

Sadly probably 3,000. Sturt used to draw a few, question is if we can.

... hopefully the nephew will be back in play

For us, for them? And a hint of a name? Hopefully not an ex-Magpie.

Doesn't look like we'll be on TV for the Sturt game according to the club website fixture - but, who knows when this was last updated plus I see there are a number of our games that still show as TBC (to be confirmed) re if it will be a radio or TV broadcast - there are only 2 games currently showing in our remaining fixture that will be on ch 7 Mate and they are the game against Sturt at Unley on28 June and then our second Showdown against the cows at Alberton on 26 July - as for the SANFL website, they still have last weekend's games listed up running across the top of their home page (why am I not surprised!).

Bet they'd like to change that. Funny that after all these years Port v Sturt on TV might be a big game again.

Was thinking of putting a very similar comment in my post Powerstuff - we have played some almighty games with huge crowds against Sturt a few decades ago - maybe that's why they've left so many of our remaining games as TBC so they can decide as the season unfolds which ones will be telecast - I'll keep checking the SNAFL (misspelling intended) site because one would think surely they will soon put up next weekend's round of games which would show which game will be on TV.

Edit:- can't wait for Sunday at Alberton and of course the Power's huge Sat game against Freo - another big weekend of footy for many of us.

Managed to find a tv guide for the next week that specifies the match... it's Tigers v Roosters unfortunately.

Will no-one think of the children?

Watching Resurrection last night and Channel 7 were pumping up the Eagles as their telecast game. Looks and feels great to see SANFL coverage back on commercial TV!

Woops my mistake - it's Eagles v Glenelg.

Magpie player, on the injury list ( hand two weeks) named in the 15 contracted

 

[HaroldOliver]

I'm looking forward to seeing the Maggies in the flesh this weekend after missing out on the Clare game. It has been a long time since Port and Sturt have played each other as the top 2 teams.

Dad's first name starts with a 'K'? Dad probably as happy with a Port connection as Graham Cornes was?
