2nds Port Adelaide vs Sturt - Trial Match 3 @ Alberton

[VineValerian]

Bit disappointing.
Hardly knew most of the Sturt mob. Mainly kids?
Going to be a loooooong year for the Magpies.

 

[JUSTWORK]

End of 4th quarter: Down 92 to 61

We need to spend a lot more time practicing out goal kicking.

How’s Woodcock going please?

Been a bit stiff

I’m not sure, I certainly didn’t watch it but from what I can tell Sturt dominated at the end on the back of playing twice as many players and heavily rotating their team half way through.

For some reason Sturt (and Glenelg) are only playing two practice matches to every one else's three, so maybe that's why they were allowed to use so many players and it was originally going to be six terms.

But Sturt played last year, our seconds didn’t.

Did Jones do a hammy?

Who was impressive tonight ?

Liked what I saw from Georgiades, Jones (in the half he played), Woodcock, Hayes, Mayes, McKenzie, Lienert, Moore, Sareen, Sutcliffe and Wildman

Need more out of Garner and Lord.

 

[Byrons Firen]

Is Lord being fitted as a chop out for Hayes? Seems to play up the ground a bit.

Surman should ruck, but if Lord isn't getting the job done up forward, maybe throwing him in the middle sometimes can get him in the game.

 

[Byrons Firen]

Yep Lord's a talent I reckon, get him involved and he'll deliver.

It's possible that he only played 2 quarters so he can be an emergency sub if someone pulls out of the AFL side late.

Ollie gets outbodied which is to be expected. Joel was disappointing.

Unfortunately he did his hamstring. Looked great before that.

Did he do it do it?

Look like a tweak more than anything as they rubbed it for quite a while pre icing up


Didn't know you were there would've said gday

Provided a lot of run through the middle of the ground.

All good. We were in the members' stand. Hopefully it's low grade

 

[Us against the rest]

One of 3 things :

1) Over trained and run out of petrol tickets.
2) Poorly coached.
3) We over estimated our depth.

Very disappointing but still it's only a trial match.

You look like you run out of petrol when your opponent has run 7-8 kilometres less than you in the previous 60 minutes.
Coaching doesn’t fix fresh legs vs tired or less fresh legs.
Our next best 6 look right up to it regardless and that’s good depth.

I gather Williams didn't do much with the midfield time he got?

PAFC write up typically vague - talked up Jones's second quarter and then just mentioned him "being taken out of the game" at half time.

In a story about the AFL game this is mentioned at the end:

"On the injury front, Hinkley reported newly drafted defender Lachie Jones noted hamstring soreness during the first half of the SANFL trial."
