So, second round pick - Jonas, Ah Chee
Third round - O'Shea, Clurey. Colquhoun
So you don't think Hartlett will come under fire end of year?
Also with some of those players, other clubs might also view them as being far more valuable than what Port do - might get some decent deals out of it..
No, I personally think all the talk about Hartlett is bullshit. He's been average this year, sometimes average at best, but he's a keeper. Plus nobody would be prepared to take his contract on, not the money, but the length.

Wouldn't that suggest you're happy with average?
He's much more capable than he's shown, but surely you'd at least test the waters to if there's an interest and what it could potentially bring in?

Hope Clurey comes in not Paul Stewart. If Stewart comes in on Jack= Game over. Tigers win

Just a number. Brent Harvey is nearly 40 and only a midget, Westie still has plenty of value IMO. Keep him!
Yeah, but Brent Harvey plays 5 minutes of football every 3 weeks now so.....
Westhoff has ZERO trade value.

Not one bit am I happy with average. However, if you can mount a case for someone to replace him who will offer us more at this point in time I'm all ears. Needless to say, that's the problem with the depth in our list.

Whilst in theory I agree I think we still win.
Saying that I think we win big or lose nothing in between if you get what I mean. Hoff due for his monthly good game, Hartlett simply must perform, Broadbent won't have to worry about anyone so he'll play well. Ollie simply must show last years form, I reckon Gray and Chad might get a handful each, Ebert should only be allowed to Handball wish he could like he can run.
Boak and Charlie still dealt with harshly for mine.
Surely it's a case of shutting down Jack and Dusty and it's game over?? Let Cotchin have his 35 Kane Cornes touches they don't hurt anyone.

I'll do it for him.
Crowd predication tonight? I cant see it being more than sub 30,000.
I was thinking 35ish
Will get over 40k i reckon. Richmond draw ok crowds here, port should win, Friday night and the weather not bad.

I will happily wipe the egg off my face. Mitchell was super tonight, Ran with Cotch and toweled him up even helped himself to about 25 touches himself but his pressure was awesome. Ports tackling as a whole was awesome (conditions helped) but to win the tackles by nearly 50 and win the game by 6 goals is a good sign.
Boak was awesome, Ollie and Gray were good in fact most blokes except O'Shea were..
Really tough month coming up I guess the only thing we can hang our hat on is the fact over the last few years we match up well against the good sides it's the sides we should beat that we don't!

I can't mate, was talking about potentially shopping him (or moreso finding out what clubs would give up for him)
