And Hoskin just keeps on playing very cool, calm & collected footy,
we'll miss him big time when he retires.
Our best pick up from Port?
Maybe a tie with Kyle Robert Jenner.

Aren't they about our only two (apart from Des Drogemuller and Michael Wakelin)?

We had the bloke with the crook back,
also had North's coach?

Bowen Lockwood (?)
John Butcher (?)

Jacob Surjan the North coach but he was Port Power, mini draft to Centrals and then went to the Magpies?

Yep Butcher. Lockwood and Surjan were our mini draft picks that the Power took off us to play with the Port Magpies (when they were still the Magpies, pre takeover).

I heard Kenny pulled the SANFL boys in for match sim for his AFL lads on Saturday... no wonder the magpies didnt win

Astonishing if true.. would put any resistance to the thought the comp is massively compromised and devalued to bed once and for all. Not to mention 7 news making the point more than one that Lycett again was on managed minutes yesterday as well.. In other words getting him prepared for a potential AFL recall was more important than winning an elimination final.. (I haven’t seen the replay so unsure how factual that is) but again it just isn’t fair on players across all clubs (Port) included, who have sacrificed and bled for their guernseys for over a hundred years..

SANFL conditions of Ports entry.



Port Adelaide commits to ‘playing the line’ including:
- Not resting players

Which is completely rational and understandable from the Power's perspective... and just illustrates precisely why reserves teams do not belong in the SANFL.

Exactly right on both counts
