Other than Salopek,Chaplin,Pettigrew,Pearce,Ebert,Thompson is there any other young blokes Choko could fit in mate?

Dont look to the coaches box at Alberton when you are digging up reasons for our sudden downfall.

I dont think Ezards up to it (at this stage anyway). De Luca certainly needs to play a game soon. Willitts is another who needs to be fast tracked. Thomas has shown promise although obviously cant play yet until more SANFL experience, should hopefully get a few games towards the end of the year. Same for Lower if he shows the promise from pre season trials in the SANFL with Norwood, once he resumes form injury. Symes is a must to play this week, obvious replacement for Wilson.

Actually Booney

I think I will look to the coaches box.....

Port should of started to blood some of these young guys last year, Ebert won a Magarey Medal as a Midfielder and where did they play him last year, off the bech and across HF.... that was when he actually got a game

Some of the other guys you mentioned Salopek,Chaplin and Pettigrew, some of these guys should of got more game time last year, instead the coach continued with senior players that were not performing

Now, these guys are not ready and are a long away from being ready......

Poor list management + Poor Transition Planning = poor 2006 season

The mail I got is that SYMES is likely to play this week.

PORT are too old and too slow.

Dry days and they are struggling, might improve
when its a bit wetter.

One loss, after beating the reigning premiers (admittedly down on form) interstate. Sure, Port are going to have a dip, but everyone is quick to have a crack with all care and no responsibility.

It's bigger than that Mac. Yep, Port have plenty of haters but even Power tragics like Booney wouldn't hold high hopes for this season. You can't lose all of your mongrels and most of your engine room on top of having injured players and expect to be competitive.
