Age is catching up with him, he is no where near as clinical in front of goals as he once was.

Still a valuable player but on the down hill slope and rightfully so.

Richmond had 4 players under 24 and Port had 10

Understandable considering where both clubs are coming from the last few years.


Another way of looking at it is:

Richmond had 12 premiership players, Port had 1.


Port had 2- Lycett and Rioli 2018

Seen him a few times in our VFL this year and very surprised he was picked up.
Was fumbly and terribly soft. Wasn’t impressed at all by him at that level

Narkle gets on the park at least.
I don’t see who’s spot he takes in that Port side though

I apologise if this isn't the correct place to post this , but i just wanted to say the Jeremy Finlayson's wife being cleared of cancer is the best story of the year.

So happy for all involved.

What a credit Finlayson has been to the club in his short time at Alberton.

Jonas playing in the SANFL and it's not because he's returning from injury, purely on form.

Chad Cornes basically said this would happen at the press conference he did yesterday. Said nobody in the back lines deserved to be dropped for Jonas. Jonas looks shot as an AFL player, just too slow these days. Good on the club for making tough call.

Finally, needed to happen as his spot in the back six can't be justified at the moment.

Has played as a key defender at 188cm and 90kg for 211 games using his body to break packs apart for 13 years, his body has taken a battering and can't play that role any longer, his body won't allow it.

That's not the case, she's still got a fight on her hands :

Kellie Finlayson has described her “traumatic” week following a TV interview positive health update on Monday, releasing a personal statement in her own words to confirm she still has terminal cancer.

On Monday night, Kellie shared some “pretty incredible results” on The Project, telling how she recently had a restaging scan which showed extremely positive signs that her chemotherapy treatment was working “unbelievably well”.

While her diagnosis remains terminal, Kellie will be rescanned again in another three months – which will give her a better idea of her long-term prognosis.

“The Project presented my story so beautifully and I am very grateful for their sensitivity and care,” Kellie said in the statement.

Unfortunately, some media outlets chose to share another narrative off the back of this interview, taking the best snippets of information and making it sound as if I was miraculously cured and cancer-free. This is absolutely not the case.

“As you can imagine, upon seeing these stories I was inundated with friends and family calling to celebrate ‘my miracle’.

“I have had to tell each and every one of them that my prognosis has not changed. I still have stage 4 colorectal cancer and I am not cancer-free.

“This has been so incredibly traumatic for me, telling people over and over again that I still have terminal cancer.”

Unusual for the media to report something not totally correct, :shock: :roll: hopefully all works out for the best with Kellie
