I heard last night he needed to pass a fitness test, with Saturday > Thursday I doubt he'd be up for Melbourne.

Might bring Sam Hayes in for his debut.

I can't see us beating Melbourne without him.

Booney, i'm disappointed.. that was a very positive review of a game that I thought played out horribly.

When your ruckman has the second most disposals on the ground for your side there is a problem.

Surprised they only lost the clearances by 10, seemed like STK smacked them hard.

By biggest issue Saturday was the lack of conversion from F50 entries and dominance, particularly the 3rd term - first half of the quarter was all PA and yet only registered I think 1.1? Seemed to revert back to old habits of just blazing in long towards Dixon and scrambling at ground level.

The decision to bring in Westhoff for McKenzie made little sense, and the perseverance of Ladhams in the ruck whilst getting smacked was strange.

Gray has hardly fired a shot this season, and Rozee has been poor for a fair few weeks now.

StK are travelling well and have a good balance across their list, but Ryder wasn't in the best 21 at PA last year, Houston traded end of year and they chopped Port to shreds Sat night.

I can't have the write up go forever, daisy wouldn't hang around. ;)

Whilst it was an awful game to watch and the umpiring completely mysterious the first 3 quarters I felt we were just a bit off and would finish off, then St Kilda smacked us in the middle. I agree, the part where I mentioned Amon, Duursma, etc not getting the ball is a worry and the inside mids need to lift to get them more of the ball.

Also could have thrown Dixon into the middle for a bit I thought, just to change things up.

Ryder is still capable, but it would have been irresponsible of Port to offer him the 2 years he wanted when Lycett, Ladhams and Hayes are on the list and are developing nicely.

If Jack Cahill just stands in the race at training with a picture of a 80's Port premiership team & drags Byrne-Jones to one side, shows him the pic & shaves that maxi pad off the back of his head the fella would win a Brownlow. Wouldn't hurt to drop the hyphen either, Port people would never allow a hyphenated name in the glory days they'd be thrashed like a red headed step child.

I understand, but, the ticket was probably paid for months ago and with max 6 or 7 homes games they'll work out to be about $70 a ticket if you've pledged the full amount. I wouldn't sell mine if I couldn't go, but that's me.

I was trying to get a couple of box tickets or be on standby incase of a pull out, the rep said his mate has tickets, he said I could grab two for $80 all up.

Any worse than high tier members being allocated absolutely garbage seats only to see other people sitting in their yearly seats?
I know of several Port folk who have rang the club to give them a spray and one of the folks at work won’t be going again unless he gets a better seat allocations.
Paying decent money to get shunted down to ground level and in amongst the Saints fans wasn’t his ideal night out

Ticketek assign the tickets, only 20,000 can go, pull your head in and enjoy the night out.

Did you say that too him?

Are memberships and tickets transferable?

Tickets must not be on-sold, any member caught re-selling their tickets will have their membership cancelled. If you are unable to attend you are permitted to forward your ticket to friends/family or notify Ticketek so your tickets can be reallocated to other members.

No. He has paid top dollar and was given shithouse seats only to find out later on that folks who had far cheaper memberships got his seats in the western stand. Is it hard for whoever is responsible to give people tickets close enough in standard to the ones they have paid for.
Your top tier members should always be looked after first and the plebs get the scraps that are left
