Might be a good thing for us. If he played and dominated with 35 disposals and 4 goals, he might be selected 5 or 10 places higher.Jase Burgoyne will miss the sanfl u18s grand final this weekend with groin soreness.

Moves like dad.
Apologies if I'm intruding here, but a poster on the Collingwood board has made this claim regarding Kade Dittmar: "His old man Mark is a premiership player for Port in the SANFL." He may well have got that idea from reading this article. I used to chat to Mark every now and then at the club back when he was playing (he was a nice lad), but my memory says he mostly played seconds, with just the odd senior game, and I'd be very surprised if he was in a (senior) premiership team. Can anyone clear this up?Interesting that we have a few FS types up for this year's draft - albeit ineligible for FS picks to us
ie. Motlop, Bruer, Horne-Francis.
Also relatives of former Port players in Kade Dittmar and Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera.

Thanks a lot for the reply. It looks certain that Wally (who I think was the father of Mark and Michael) did, though I'm a bit surprised he only managed it once!: https://sanfl.com.au/league/news/celebrating-a-century-of-the-wirrulla-bombers/Yeah, Mark didn't play in a league premiership - maybe seconds. If this wiki page is correct, the only Dittmat to have played in a senior premiership for PAFC is Wally Dittmar, who played a sporadic 79 games between 1952-63 - given that Port won 8 flags in that period, including the famous six in a row 54-59, he had every chance! Oddly though, the linked article doesn't confirm it, so the wiki page might be wrong and none of them did.

Would be a real kick in the teeth if Jase did reject us as a FS. If he did, we’re left with some very average picks after 12. At least he gives us a shot at someone who would may be in that 30-40 range.
Thanks a lot for that. I think I always just had the idea that Mark and Michael were brothers, but it sounds like they weren't. Given that they were miles apart in terms of their size that seems reasonable!I thought that Wally was father to Mark, who is father to Kade.
Wally's brother Alan was father to Chris the squash player (cousin to Mark).
Another brother Michael snr played later (1969-70) was father to Michael jnr (cousin to Mark and Chris).
I think there was another brother (Les?) who was an Australian champion boxer.
Wally and Alan may(?) have been forwards, and played early 50's to early 60's around the time Rex Johns and Neil Hawke were our primary forwards.
Michael snr was certainly a FF and I remember he kicked 9 goals in one match.
Mark played a handful of games in the early 90's - maybe 1993? Smaller mid/hff type.
Michael jnr was a forward/ruck and played for a few years around then too, but then swapped to North where he played around 50 or so games.
Breuer will be a very good player, hopefully you take himInteresting that we have a few FS types up for this year's draft - albeit ineligible for FS picks to us
