The worst part of that game is we all knew it was coming. We knew Essendon would be fired up and would be coming at us with everything they had and once again we couldn’t handle being hunted and absolutely went to water early in the game. Some credit to the team for a fightback and they didn’t...

Thought a thread appropriate, as it's a fairly significant period of time. White to miss at least 12 weeks Given the significant run and carry he brings to our team, and with Polly still recovering and getting back into it, this could be a pretty significant blow. I'm probably leaning more to...

Ken better swing the axe. Mitchell out. I don't care that he "tries hard", I try hard in the amateurs, doesn't mean I can cut it at AFL level. Wines in. O'shea out. No penetration in his kicking, defensive work only ok. Carlisle in. No point dropping Westhoff just stop playing him at...

Gray signs multi-year deal to remain at Alberton until at least 2018 ROBBIE Gray will be 30 years old when his contract next comes up for renewal after penning a new multi-year deal to keep him at Alberton until at least the end of 2018. The All-Australian's three-year contract extension will...

Link Link Great stuff from the two youngsters. Guess Colquhoun was never really in doubt but great to have another non-SA lad re-signing, especially one without a 'guaranteed' first 22 spot.

SANFL Report: Logan continues to push SANFL Report: Logan continues to push Good to see Logan keep plugging away, and a really good return from pretty much all our AFL listed players. Looks like Impey has secured Tommy's old spot, but I'd imagine we'd be looking to rest Impey for a week or...

Injury Update: Carlile, Hartlett free to play Injury Update: Carlile, Hartlett free to play Cam Hitchcock out for 6-8 with a similar shin problem that plagued Heath during his pre-season. Feel for the little fella, I reckon this could be the end of his AFL career as he probably needed to show...

Colquhoun to miss season following surgery Colquhoun to miss season following surgery

OK, not sure if this needs it's own thread, but I'm positive that at the ground the board said we won by 55 points, however the Port site and the AFL site (as well as a lot of media pieces) have said our final score was 19.13 - 127. Was there a miss count on the day that has since been...

Former Melbourne coach and Adelaide assistant Dean Bailey dies after cancer battle aged 47 RIP.

Link Link A good time to come in to form with finals selections coming around. I'll admit I still don't think he's up to scratch to cut it in a final, but worth the risk? Good to see Shaw hit some form, even if it's only in the ressies.

So it's a bit of a nitpicky thread, but the latest AFLCA votes are up for the Saints v Port game: Link Link And a quick look through of the numbers would show that Westhoff and Steven would have been given 5 and 1 each, with the other votes being as given. This means that Westy and Steven...

Link Link Great news for a great servant of the club.

Link Link Good job from Benny, great to see him stating his case for a consistent league spot. Thomas and Stewart pulling out some decent games too by report, but not a heck of a lot else to get excited about. Need to see Butch put in a four quarter effort, same with Stevenson. A guy in his...

Sat May 4th, 2.10pm Blundstone Arena, Tas Ladder 2. Port W5 L0 13. NM W1 L4 Head to Head Port 8, NM 19 Last 5: WLLLW Team Form: After capitalising on their draw last year, North Melbourne secured 8th position, 2 games clear of 9th, but were throttled by West Coast in the first round and...

Ladder 2. Port W4 L0 12. WCE W1 L3 Head to Head Port 15, WCE 9 Last 5: WWLLL Team Form: Top 4, and even premiership favourites at the start of the year, West Coast are now looking in danger of not making the top 8 by years end. This has largely been due to their mounting injury list, headed...

Ladder 2. Port W3 L0 13. GC W1 L2 Head to Head Port 1, GC 1 Last 5: ---LW Team Form: Gold Coast have looked to have improved significantly over the pre-season, with their raft of young talent starting to resemble a team of men with determination, rather than skinny kids with potential. A...

I remember hearing some stats a while back about how many games are played on average by players who were drafted in each round of the draft, hearing something like only 10% of players drafted outside the first round play more than 20 games. Does anyone have, or know where to look for...

Article a few weeks old, but interesting to see the odds: Prior to the AFL's rookie draft, betting exchange punters could find the Power at $1000 to win the 2012 flag. The odds were slashed to $300 when a club sponsor publicly announced its desire for Port chiefs to recruit out-of-favour...

I have no doubt some here will smash this, but I only got to 33 before I gave up. Bit of fun during the off season... http://www.sporcle.com/games/DJDaForce/PortPower50Gamers

I guess this could come under a draftee/trades thread, but what do people think is our major deficiency at the moment? On the general forum this thread has the scores and accuracies per team: http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=823818 Port are 13th for total scores, and 1st for...

http://www.portadelaidefc.com.au/ptv/tabid/11037/contentid/352190/default.aspx#playvideo Just watched this on PTV, obviously not a major media outlet, so the players won't think too much about it, but just concerned about Boak's body language through the vid, then right at the end saying "we...
