NORTH
North Adelaide has been hit by hamstring issues ahead of its clash with Port on Saturday.

Former captain Mitch Clisby and sharpshooting forward Keenan Ramsey both injured their hamstrings against Sturt in Round 10.

The return of premiership bigman Alex Barns will assist in the absence of Ramsey, with Barns overcoming a shoulder complaint.

Jared Deep has been included on the four-man extended interchange bench while Lee Minervini will play his first Statewide Super League game since Round 17 2017.

PORT
A very different Port Adelaide outfit will confront North Adelaide at Prospect on Saturday.

Since the Magpies’ win against Norwood on June 16, Charlie Dixon, Ollie Wines, Brad Ebert and Joel Garner have been called up for AFL duty.

This will ensure that Paddy Ryder makes his Statewide Super League debut while Justin Westhoff will play his first Statewide Super League game since lining up with original club Central District in Round 13 2010.

Midfielder Sam Powell-Pepper will play his first SANFL match for the Magpies since Round 18 last season.

Defender Jarrad Lienert has been joined in the 19-player list by SANFL-contracted quartet Sam Davidson, Matt Appleton, Tom Corcoran and Jack Strange.

Magpies captain Cam Sutcliffe, recruited from Fremantle, could play his first game for the Power after being called up to the extended squad in the AFL.

I expect Port to get up here by 5 goals.

I see that Brock Castree has left North to return to PAOC. Another loss that will further stretch the Roosters.

Power ressies by 10 goals.

Power by 70+ if its not too wet

North at this stage couldn't win a chook raffle - and that's saying something!!

The weather might produce a closer contest than if it were dry, but Port reserves easily.

Powerserves by 41pts.

North not even concerned with this year . Port easily.

Half time

Half Port Power 6.4

North 4.4

What's the record for most possessions? Rockliff with 40 at 3/4 time.

Westoff 37 and Powell-Pepper 32

Ridiculous numbers.
It’s why it’s a farce they are playing.

Might as well play the Power theme song.

Have to agree, he ended up with 57, back in the old days someone would have taken him out

57 touches for Rockliff, 37 and 3 goals for Westhoff.... absolutely ridiculous. It’s a farce they still call this team the “magpies”.

Rockliff, Ryder and Westhoff didn’t even know the team song.

SANFL = JOKE FARCE SHAM port magpies PFFFT Comp is a JOKE.

Can we stop trying to pretend the magpies are still a thing. Absolute disgrace. The quicker the power and the cows take their reserves out the better

Great effort by the mighty magpies!!

None of the AFL sides should be in the state leagues.

Crowd 1249. Is this the smallest at Prospect.

* Same post as the other game. AFL reserves and weather.

North's endeavour was there, they worked hard. They were never going to be within cooee of Port Power yesterday though.
