Been to a few trainings thanks Cash and have enjoyed it. Been great with the lads and a few dobs of the footy. That explains why Lockwood has been working the late shift at least. Living with bubba love as well would be a drain on him and about time he lost him to concentrate on his footy. Bubba would be a very ordinary house mate and not much good can come from it. :D


I'm surprised that he's still in decent shape considering the Christmas break they had. Not sure many blokes could keep up with Bubba; will be interesting to see what shape he's (Bubba) in come round 1.



Can think of one or two really good reasons why Dylan is in shape at the moment. Does not matter if he gets a kick this year, or even turns up as he is clearly best on ground every game and the players should respect that he has to preserve his energy. Bubba is playing at the Port District feeder club down at Largs North this year and can imagine he will be in ordinary shape after seeing him last week

Every club on the peninsula is a feeder club to the Port Magpies or Port District. Young players go off and try and play league footy with the Magpies and the good ones, or the ones who want to play good amateur football on the peninsula then head back to Largs, when they have had enough or can not make it at Alberton. They always have and always will. The :"others" just filter out to all the other clubs on the peninsula. Been going on for years and all the good players end up at Largs. Simple really and just fact.

Agreed with this statement somewhat because it's true and it does happen. The feeder club directly to the Magpies over the past years has been districts, young blokes from the peninsula who are on the Magpies list who can't always get a game and can't quite cut it or fall off the pace have been encouraged to move to Districts because of playing in a higher division, same thing happened at Salisbury North and other clubs over time. It's how the Magpies look after their own in a way, so they can 'keep an eye on them'.

This sort of thing has caused many guys my age for example and perhaps older guys I don't know, who have been at Districts their whole life to leave the club after unfortunately having there spots taken by a guy from another club encouraged to move there because of Districts playing in a higher division. I know clubs try to do whatever possible to become successful fair enough, but it can be very cruel to the guys who love and who have been faithful to their club in a way.

Just shows how thin the talent is on the peninsula with the port magpies becoming a rabble everyone knows the best footballers come from the northern suburbs

The Port Adelaide footy club, do not encourage players to play at any particular club. They have a list of all clubs in the area with contact names,which they give to players looking for a club. In the past Districts have been in a higher grade than Portland, Rosewater, North Haven etc, so players have chosen to play in the highest grade possible. I would think Districts would also pay the most money to players from that list of clubs, which also makes them an attractive option.

It may not encourage a particular club but if a player from Port Adelaide went to play Div 5 at Haven or Rosewater I can guarantee they wouldn't be getting a call up to come back to the Magpies

Completely 100 % entirely untrue.

I have no problem with Port's sending players who don't have a club to Districts they are the highest ranked club but they send players who come from North Haven to Districts. Anyone who says that isn't true is deluded or lying.

It is true for one player in the past 3 years I believe but youd have to agree they are sent their because of the grade of football and nothing against the club. Anyhow that player had his choice where to play for the coming 2012 year and has chased some CASH in the country so goodluck to him.

I cant comment about the first 2, but i can guarantee you, there was no influence from Port Adelaide on Betteridge and Hales going to Districts. If they told your club there was, they are not telling the truth. I know Jared was offered some money at Districts, and i know Betteridge wanted to go an play as high a grade as possible.
