2nds Port Adelaide vs Norwood - Round 21 @ Alberton

[PepeSilvia]

an elite junior all his life, every club president at some point will be asking their recruiters 'what didn't we like about him?'. Will debut for Power in 2017.

Wasn't always 'elite'. Riley Bonner always played up a grade at Goodwood (and often at West Adelaide), Snelling never did.

Wassa score?

F@%k, I laughed...

 

[Magpiespower]

Point!

They finally kicked a point...

If the Power have a good year in 2017, he will be highly sought after as a head coach. His Essendon role impacted on his development.

 

[PepeSilvia]

Arch with a huuuuuuge grab.

Certainly has hops.

I'm sorry but anyone who calls Bonner an upgrade on Pittard hasn't watched much of Bonner. Bonner's field kicking in the SANFL has been extremely shaky this year. The kid can play and hopefully has a BIG future, but he is far from an upgrade yet and his disposal is currently very over rated. That's not to say he wont work on and improve it but right now he still has a fair way to go. Pittard's last 5 weeks have been pathetic but he's still an top line player with some elite evasiveness and kicking skills.

 

[Far Kern]

Whats his disposal like? Ive only seen him play twice and it seemed quite good.

If I've picked up anything it would be that he doesn't have a lot of length on his kick. He's mostly doing the hard work inside but he distributes well in open play. He's a little mini-Ollie.

It kind of annoys me that Ah Chee dominates SANFL with ease, finished 2015 in a very positive note and in 2016 doesn't do s**t in most his AFL games. On pure talent and physical attributes he'd be one of the higher tiers on our list.

Yep he's athletically amazing, but then again Matt Thomas athletically also was outstanding.

I would have hoped any Pittard critics disappeared a good 2 years ago, a great player.

47 points.. C'mon, kick more goals! At least leave it to chance next week instead of not winning by enough.

Fair call, he is only 5'9 tho

 

[simmo_bc]

Can we keep Mitchell as a rookie again?

 

[El Zorro]

Last quarter is Ports AFL standard.

 

[CrystalFissure]

F*ck sake. Another goal to Norwood.

Port - 15.7 97
Norwood - 9.4 58

Thomas didn't have the football skills that Ah Chee has even though he worked harder and is better at finding the ball.

 

[Coobk001]

Geez at this rate the game isn't over yet.

 

[PepeSilvia]

We've gone to water but I reckon 6 or 7 of their goals have come from free kicks + 25m/50m penalties.

 

[manureid]

Boys probably be happy to be out of finals contention. Early end for both teams season.

[CrystalFissure]

Every single score in the last quarter has been from Norwood. Ugh.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

So should we keep Hewett and Houston on the rookie list?

 

[OneGreatClub]

Where is that psychologist?

 

[simmo_bc]

Both locks for me.
