Lonergan under-rated, he does a lot of clever clearance work and body positioning. Hayes back to his best. Thompson faultless display.
Tsitas must be in the running for the MM. Always under the eyes of the umps.

Yesterday there were 3 in that category, which could have allowed 3 much younger community top up players to get SANFL experience. Oh yes, I forgot. They want some silverware for the cabinet. Its been a long, long time since the dusty cups had some companions.

I dont like Port at all, but the theory that they are recruiting older blokes to win the SANFL flag is fanciful, they actually don't care about the Magpies and the SANFL, other than development needs.

Sam Hayes would be one of the best ruckmen in the game at any level atm

I was sitting in the cricket club and the Zane Williams goal would have made Eddie Betts proud. Stengel's goal at the same end wasn't bad either .

It's very, very thin in the bottom 7 or 8, talent.


In good nick and ready to step in when he's called up
