Traditional rivals from many years ago.

"Historic Rivals" may be better discribed my good friend.

The legs are a far better side today.

[garygroundwork]

if the weather is fine predicting the biggest crowd of the year (for the minor round).

[RustyCage]

Looking forward to this one. Not expecting too much result wise, but great to see footy back

ANY Norwood/Port game, any time any where is always a 50/50 contest.

So what if the Magpies League side played against your Under 16's, would it still be 50/50?
Norwood will go in as red hot favourites, rightly so, but I think it will be a fairly close, entertanining contest.

Port should have a reasonable side this week. Probably Butcher, Brett Ebert, Surjan, Slattery, Hayes, Neade plus some usual suspects. Could be interesting, depending if they can gel.

Possibly stiffy johncock as well

Slattery and Surjan still a few weeks away from resuming back from injury.

Possibly stiffy johncock as well

Because he played for the Crows last week and Adelaide aren't playing this week, I don't think Graham can come back to the SANFL.

Correct.

Norwood easily ... should be a good crowd

[JK]

Port were pretty impressive against the reigning premier in Round 1 last season and the club seems to be going through a fairly optimistic period recently, a bit like SDK's sentiment I always consider them a threat and I reckon they are a decent chance.

Our boys have apparently trialled well to the standards wanted of them, so are hopefully in good nick .. Should make for a good clash.

Norwood's imminent bad news is sure to unsettle them, Port to win.

ANY Norwood/Port game, any time any where is always a 50/50 contest.

Probably could have said that 10/15 years ago, but not so much these days.

Norwood have had an edge over Port the last decade, in particular last 5 years.
