He'll stoop as low as he can to try and make us look bad.

To quote Mr Boon "since then name a player that has left Port and become a better player at their next club?"

What year did Burgyone leave Port ? ?

Barnaby French 'French was traded to the Carlton Football Club in exchange for a second-round draft selection (#16 overall). There, he took the position of number one ruckman, and proved weekly to be one of Carlton's most important players"


Will Snelling "Snelling who played 1 game at Port in 3 season moved to the bombers where he has established himself in Essendon’s best side in 2020, playing every game and finishing ninth in the club Best and Fairest."


Cain ackland "Played 12 games in 4 years at PAFC and averaged 4 disposals per game, Ackland played 62 games in the next 4 years at Carlton and St Kilda averaging 9.6 disposals per game"




Seems they all improved after leaving as mentioned previously

French 2002
Ackland 2001

Yay for comprehension!

Snelling ??

Surely you'd need to play a couple of games to even be rated? 9th in B&F @ Essendon where they finished 13th?

I reckon since 2008 we've got Snelling has improved and Howard and Impey are to be confirmed.

Apologies for me over looking Snelling, I'm still reeling from his loss.

Got me mate, got me good.

Working in reverse who has come to Port and been better?

Dixon maybe
Rockcliff would a be NO

Fire away

Dixon, Ryder, Monfries, Polec, McKenzie, Burton, without thinking too hard I'd say played their best footy at Port.

Schulz, certainly.

Always so committed to getting the last word in on a Port debate that you're even responding to yourself

Ryder and Monfries went alright at Essendon.
Line ball maybe.

What about Wanganeen?
Better at port or Essendon?

Wanganeen was a gun from the day he started to the day he finished.

Ryder did, I think he had his best years with us, Monfries probably line ball as agreed, he was serviceable at Essendon.

Damien Hardwick. Better at Essendon
Pickett. Line ball maybe
Montgomery. Definitely better at Port

Matthew Bode was better at the Crows IMO.

Billy Frampton is as well!

Hodges was better at the Crows than Power.

Brad Symes was better after leaving Port
