A night game against Freo would be a big gamble for the AFL. My guess is a twilight game for TV marketing back west. Collingwood v Carlton and Saints v North are more likely candidates for the two Round 11 night games in Melbourne

I think people overlook the uniqueness of the three Western draftees, Jackson Pickett and Rivers debuting so quickly into the senior team. Until that time we became used to the revolving three or four players in and out. When the boys from the West arrived suddenly the team was more settled week to week. Will there be one that makes the team this year on a regular basis. Injuries aside I doubt it. There's little doubt that the Hunt/Hibberd/Smith spot is not settled but no one at VFL level seems to be in that mix. Can't see us adopting a squad like system simply because the players that one would obviously rest, Gawn May etc have no obvious replacements at VFL level

Article in the Age this morning about Carlton being rewarded for their good form with prime time games in the next fixture block. Oh Well.........

like this live ladder.. it also includes season projections and shows us 2 games clear on top at seasons end Noice....... https://www.liveladders.com/AFL/

BBB zero to half time except for two hit outs

big upset perhaps

Slightly related but I thought I would download the AFL app onto my Nvidia Shield so I could watch the VFL live stream on my TV. Notice comes up that The "Telstra" AFL app is not available for download to my device. So it looks like Telstra are forcing us onto phones and the like to watch the VFL etc. You have to love the media carve up !!

I can see Petty playing 2 games at Casey. He's been out for a fair while. Happy to leave the Weid/TMac choice to the experts. It isn't easy to say the least

Good to see. One player who has the skill to deliver a lot of upside. Needs to hit the scoreboard more often

To be outscored in this quarter is very disappointing to say the least

that hurt the percentage

Let's finish this off 3 goals to nil please

If we can keep Port relatively goalless in the final quarter this game will be good for our percentage despite our low score

need another two or three and then it's game over Let's go Dees

he'd only been on the ground 48% of the time so I expect he had an injury that he was trying to run out

Definitely adults only over on the Port Adelaide Big Footy board. Suffice to say most vitriol directed towards the coach rather than the players

yeah o yeah

been a while since we kicked straight

well well wasn't that exciting football

My new mantra..... Kick Straight and Prosper !

Found a post wondering if Ken Hinkley ever reviewed the 2021 Prelim loss. Not sure if that's a good or a bad omen.

speaking for your membership and sponsors not to mention post premiership merchandising I'm not sure Mr Pert would agree

Darcy Moore just signed a 6 year deal at Collingwood. Age 26 He has just come off a 2 year deal at around $850k. We paid Lever around $800k when he first came over as a 3rd/4th year player so you would have to think that the amount for a 2 year deal for Luke has to be around $800k per year. If that's correct weight it's not hard to see another club mentioning the magical $1M

3 interstate games out of the first 5. What did we do wrong

Have followed the Big Footy Port Adelaide board on and off for a few years. The Port followers are a lot like ourselves except while we used to bemoan being in the bottom four they bemoan finals performance
