That Shoulder injury is perhaps way worse than expected. I thought he was easily in their best 22. Get nothing for him now which I think will hurt.


He might (I say might) be in our best 22 right now but he's not in the best 22 of a side that would see itself as a genuine contender. One of the players who should be 28-30th on our list and one of the reasons we've been stagnating in the middle of the ladder. If we're serious about improving our list then the likes of Sam Gray are moved on and we try the next in line, Farrell, for mine.

Only leaves Ebert and Lycett on Port's list who are Port Adelaide from their junior days.

For all of you who are interested in the PAFC's China Strategy I suggest taking the time to read this article.

I know you will, you all comment on the matter regularly. :D

- Port have employed a full time diplomat ( he was the NSW Commissioner of Trade and Investment ) in Shanghai. He attracted billions of dollars of investment into NSW from China
- 2019 returned around $500,000 to Port's coffers from China Strategy, that has gone towards employing the full time commercially orientated role above
- 2017 and 2018 were break even, a shift in strategy returned 2019 to profit
- Shanghai CRED ( China Strategy Major Partner ) was a seven figure 3 year deal, it's been extended to 5 years with another similar deal set to be announced in the new year

Probably the main points to take from it.

Under no circumstances should our country be called China.
I would ask that you refer to our official name “People’s Republic of China” or it can also be referred to as “THE PRC”
