I hope Boak and Robbie are the ones to chair him off on Saturday as the three of them were all drafted together back in 2006 and are remarkably all still playing together today.

Gray taken at 55 and Westhoff taken at 71 to boot. I hope some recruiter got a bonus for their work that year.

Gray and Westhoff debuted in the same game too. Westhoff has played 50 more games than Gray lol.

Westhoff has been elite since Ken came to the club and recognised that his greatest strength is his ability to get up and down the ground.

We drafted entire plays around that ability - who could forget the “W” sign players would make which meant “Westhoff back”?

The only thing stopping him from reaching 300+ games is his desire to play. He could play 400 if he wanted to.

I'd say only since last year or the year before he's been truly elite.. he had cameos in the years before.

Saw him on the news tonight and he said Port has lost every one of his milestone matches.
 
So what we're saying is that if we win this week, we'll win the flag?

Sounds like a plan to me :)

Fun fact: Justin Westhoff is already our 6th oldest player in the AFL era (after Lade, Wakelin, Paxman, Wanganeen and Brogan) and if he lines up in Round 1 next season he will become the outright oldest.

Which just highlights how poor we’ve been at having players continue past 30. A largely overlooked consequence of having such an underfunded / poor fitness department for so many years (thanks SNAFL).
 
I remember how every year for about 10 years the tiser would run an article on McLeod and how his knee was bone on bone and he couldn't go on much longer while they investigated all sorts of miracle cures.

Meanwhile at Port, we hear Roger James's knee is a bit sore. Next thing you know, he's retiring.

May have made it if he started at 18 years old. I reckon he'll break Kanes AFL games record and might get close to 350 depending in injuries and a few finals thrown in.
 
I'd love him to get to 300. I think there is no chance he gets to 350.

That would mean he's going to play in 6 grand finals in a row, starting from this year...and then play two games in 2025 as a 38 year old.

2019 - 25 games (273) (32 years old)
2020 - 25 games (298) (33 years old)
2021 - 25 games (323) (34 years old)
2022 - 25 games (348) (35 years old)
2023 - 25 games (373) (36 years old)
2024 - 25 games (398) (37 years old)
2025 - 2 games (400) (38 years old)

I'd be happy with that :D
 
Why stop when the 'most decomposed cadaver to pull on a guernsey' award is there for the snatching from Dustin Fletcher?

He can't retire until he presents a guernsey to a son and then runs out and plays for Port with him.
