Not listed on the PAFC website as working for Ports so probably work experience angling for a job with News Limited.

Totally disagree with your comment on Austin and Bonner. Austin was solid and played like a general in the back half. His direction and voice was impressive. Bonner bar one shank kick in the 2nd qtr was excellent, used the very well and took multiple intercept marks. Didn't notice Palmer all that much. Snelling was outstanding, his quick hands around packs reminds me of Sam Mitchell.Bonner, Austin and Palmer were meh. Don't think Krak played. Impey was good in the first half, Monfries terrific in the 2nd half.
I'd say Impey and Monfries would be knocking on the door if changes are made.

If has got the goods - which it seems he does, then I reckon it will make him hungrier, and work and try harder. And when he gets his shot, which he will do, I reckon he will keep it, ala Caleb Daniel.Having all of Drew, SPP and Atley in the squad will make Snelling's life very difficult this year.
Definitely think Snelling will make it.If has got the goods - which it seems he does, then I reckon it will make him hungrier, and work and try harder. And when he gets his shot, which he will do, I reckon he will keep it, ala Caleb Daniel.
Great to finally have this depth, and if the likes of Toumpas, Ah Chee, and Palmer et al, follow that example, we will have a strong team in 2017, and surprise quite a few out there!
Cream always rises to the top. Honestly it's just good to have some good young talent again.Having all of Drew, SPP and Atley in the squad will make Snelling's life very difficult this year.

Ken's love affair with Sammy Gray is a bigger threat imo. Will wasn't even given a chance in the JLT !Having all of Drew, SPP and Atley in the squad will make Snelling's life very difficult this year.
Boak you mean.Ken's love affair with Sammy Gray is a bigger threat imo.
If he keeps playing well he will get picked. Kenny picks on form remember.Having all of Drew, SPP and Atley in the squad will make Snelling's life very difficult this year.
I agree with you that snelling is a top talent, and future player. I do think that after a good preseason, and good performances in the JLT, Sam is in front of him though. Would have been nice to see Snelling get a run though the JLT, but they must have reasons. SPP & Atley are his big competition though, not Sammy IMO.Ken's love affair with Sammy Gray is a bigger threat imo. Will wasn't even given a chance in the JLT !
Was Ken scared Will would do well? My post Yesterday at 9:19 PM was really a pointer to this.
In fairness to Sammy he has beefed up and has been better but if your genuinely looking to find your best players
would it hurt to TRIAL them and at least treat them equally. TJ is a case in point. A 3yr contract based on what?
He was ordinary v St Kilda and Richmond yet gets a spot for the Hawthorn game.
A coach's belief in players is fine but it needs to be objective and based on form not favouritism.
He played 15 games for West Adelaide in 2015.I would love to be as sure of winning x-lotto as I am that Snelling will be on Port's senior list next season.
The 2015 gf was I believe his first game of senior footy, and he was looking like a clearance machine for the Maggies last season, before missing a heap of games through injury.

Was it Bonner who played his first senior game in the 2015 gf?
Was it Hugh Haysman who debuted in week 1 or 2 of the finals and might be who 1954 was thinking of. Or did he debut before the finals?No - Bonner played one league game for the premiership-winning Bloods before injuring his foot and missing the club’s finals campaign.
