Byrne-Jones comes straight back into the side, no doubt.

Cockers or Berry have to make way.
Yep agreed, I hope they give Cochrane another game, he's a little green but he's got something I like, he reminds me of a real Port player.
When the scuffles broke out, he didn't shy away.

I'd probably go with Cockers at the moment.

He gives off more of a third forward type of vibe which we really don't have.

If Berry gets dropped, he'll be back some time.
 
36 McCallum
53 Tom Scully
59 Kyle Marshall

All off to the glue factory.

The second round miss hurts kinda. The others were late.

It was the year we paid up for the Hornet.
Yea may as well have sat out the draft there's little excuse for not finding a second rounder that's at least decent enough to hang around the list for 4 or 5 years.
 
Would be nice for us to back up a really strong performance for once.

It's a good time to face Sydney, we really should be winning this game based on who they've got out.

If we don't , the media will be all over the emotional rollercoaster team narrative, and rightly so.
 
I know nothing about this kid. What is he like? What type of player int eh current AFL does his game best mirror? If he is any good, who would he replace in our current 23?

Basically a less experienced Jackson Mead. Wing/Half Forward, averaged 20 disposals in the SANFL last year and occasionally hits the scoreboard. If he gets going he could push one of Moraes, Berry, Cochrane or Mead out of the side.

Probably a more talented player than Moraes but will find it harder to get a good run of games as a center mid v winger.

He did play 2 AFL games in his first year though.

Agreed, I think he helps our structure.

If we're set on two talls for now, we need a medium marking target. JHF has played that role at times, but he'll be needed more in the middle with Rozee to halfback. SPP has found himself doing it too, but more so out of necessity.
 
I just heard Hinkley use the word accountable.

It had nothing to do with football, it was to do with racism and the Law but it is nice to know it is in his vocabulary.
Did he use it in the right context? I daresay he'd have no clue what it means and was reading from cue cards.

We have also been missing Melican, McDonald, McInerney and Fox which makes 10 of last year's best 23, so we are limping into this one. After watching what you did to Hawthorn I just hope we can put up a fight.
I don't care how Port gets the job done, as long as they do and I don't have to listen to that nauseating bastardisation of the Queenscliff theme song.
 
Man that's a pretty bleak outcome no matter where the picks were in the draft. Nice job.
Well that depends. When you look at it, do you include the players we spent our 2022 draft resources on.

I mean, we had spent our first rounder in 2022 (plus more) to get a pretty good player in his second year.

And technically we have a 2022 draftee on our list. We just weren't the ones to draft him originally (Joe Richards).

I'd love to see Lukosius in a forward line where Lord is playing well. Reckon that split of Georgiades, Lord, Lukosius could work very nicely.
 
Better than Georgiades and Rioli?
Yep, nobody in the team had more goals + goal assists than DBJ last season. He had a good share of both as well.
