surely Wines gets dropped, like for like with Rockliff?
He has had a putrid season, clearly someone like him who is so slow cant afford to miss any pre season, tonights conditions were made for him, Ken can not keep picking him

How many clubs drop their skipper regardless of how bad they are playing?

I wouldn't, he's in our best 22 and I'd rather him play

57 disposals in the B’s, could’ve done with them in the 1’s, conditions suited him.
Unfortunately we get used to this, world beaters one week then deliver that crud.

Just so we’ve got your prediction correct.... what sort of weather do you need for the power to win?

Yes but that was just a few down pours that didn't affect the skills or the ground, last night Port were terrible in the hard in close slog. More to do with effort though, now the rain has settled, to be honest and plus having our best wet weather footballers playing in the 2's didn't help

I’ve heard this trotted out a fair bit by Port fans. 57 touches is fantastic but it was against the worst team in the SANFL. No guarantee he would have had a blinder last night.

Of the 57 touches I’m not sure how many were contested anyway.
I watched the game and his teammates were obviously aware he was setting some sort of record as they looked for him when there were better options.

If you were a horse trainer and one of your stable had a history of wet track form you wouldn't scratch him if the track was downgraded to heavy
