That's more like it.

So effectively your stating The Roos depth is bigger/better than Ports?

I'm more than happy to argue that point.

You are the one who keeps bringing up the Roos, but based on the last 2 years of top 4 finishes I would say yes.

One thing Port and the Roos do have in common is they along with the Hawks are the 3 clubs that do not leak players they want to keep and have locked away their young talent.

I must admit UKs figures from the paper confused me when I saw them too as I read it the same way and it seemed to contradict everything else that has been said/written. Have Port gone backwards 2.75 mill debtwise? And if so how do they claim they made a profit? Serious questions, no troll/stir intended. I work in IT, not accounts. Mind you my last sensible question got no response so I'm not holding my breath.

And Harlett at half back? Swap him with Pittard. I don't think Toumpas is in the best 22.

Jonas starts in defence as does Pittard.

Hartlett to play in midfield.

Ah Chee is probably now a first 18 starter, from all reports played well in internal trial game tonight, which included a speccy.

Seem to agree with you Boon. Lots of time spending thinking about the Power. Not sure what the obsession is but if your not a supporter im not sure its healthy.



Pfft Takes 10 seconds boys. Especially with port Adelaide they have a history of overstating their position. sorry to point out the reality of the situation :-)

Btw Did I say it was a bad thing ?? who knows port may have had a one off capital expense this season (doubtful but possible).

Quite the reaction to someone who simply stated Ports debt position. Which will help Valleys keep up with the conversation .

I wonder why Port fans seem so touchy on someone clarifying ports debt position :-)

INTERNAL TRIAL SCOREBOARD
Port Adelaide Black 6.2 9.7 10.16 14.17 (101)
Port Adelaide Teal 1.4 2.7 4.10 4.16 (40)

PORTADELAIDEFC.COM.AU’S BEST
Black: Wingard, Hartlett, Ebert, Boak, Howard, Amon, Pittard
Teal: Polec, R. Gray, Broadbent, White, Carlile

GOALS
Black: Wingard 3, Howard, Butcher, Cooper 2, Amon, Clurey, Ebert, Boak, Ah Chee
Teal: Johnson 2, R. Gray, Lobbe

CROWD
Approximately 5,100 at Alberton Oval

INFLUENTIAL Port Adelaide midfielder Jared Polec has shone in his return to competitive football, accumulating plenty of possessions in the Power's internal trial almost 10 months since he was sidelined with a stress fracture in his foot.

Polec fractured the navicular bone in his left foot early last year and failed to return to the field after round five.

Slimline Wines has an eye for Danger

He's since revealed the injury threatened to end his career, but the 23-year-old has recovered and was clearly his side's best on Friday night in front of around 4000 fans at Alberton Oval.

Polec ran hard and smoothly, covering the wings and then pushing back deep into defence to take kick-ins. His left foot didn't appear an issue at all.

Power coach Ken Hinkley was clearly pleased with the wingman's output but said the club would tread carefully with his training loads in the approach to round one.

"We were happy with the way he's been progressing but for him to go out and play three quarters of footy for us tonight (was great) and no doubt we missed him last year," Hinkley said.

"He got the ball a lot but he made some mistakes … he changes the ball for us a lot and we need that in our team.

"He just needs to get back amongst it a bit more. We've been putting him into quite a bit of training now for some time but there's no footy like contests.

"We've got to be very careful with the way we handle him now."

Polec is set to play two of Port's three NAB Challenge games and will likely rest before round one.

Chad Wingard (three goals) and Robbie Gray (one goal) were both impressive, as was Hamish Hartlett – but youngsters Dougal Howard (two goals) and Aidyn Johnson (two goals) both stood out as well.

Fresh from signing a new contract, Howard attacked the contest, pulled in some strong marks and slotted a great goal tight up against the boundary from 45m.

The 199cm 19-year-old was one of the most impressive players on the ground according to Hinkley, and almost certainly earned himself a place in the Power's opening NAB Challenge clash against the Sydney Swans on February 20.

Johnson sprung to life in the third term with two classy finishes in front of goal, but also showed the pace and tackling tenacity for which he was drafted last November with pick No.45.
Late in the game Johnson threw himself into a contest – a show of courage that delighted the entire coaching panel.

The game itself was one-sided, with the team in black far too good for the 'teals'.

However, while the black side included skipper Travis Boak, Hartlett and Wingard, neither team represented an indication of possible round one selections.

Polec played in a teal jumper, as did Ollie Wines, Matthew Lobbe and Gray.

Wines' shoulder looked strong as be broke through several contested situations with typical force and he finished the game without issue.


Pretty surprised that Brendan Ah Chee was not mentioned- I thought he was very close to best on for the black team last night. Looks to have grown in size and increased his aerobic capacity- was a beast around stoppages. Good to see us experiment with him up forward too, where he kicked a goal and provided a good lead up option.

Of course all the rage on social media surrounds Dougal Howard. He played a great game last night, but I also recall John Butcher kicking 5 in an internal, and Joey Wagner lighting it up last year, so i'll be keeping a lid on it until he lights it up with the Maggies. Lets hope for his sake that he does!

There has been many a dud perform well in internal trials. Until you get the pressure of a real game, real crowd, and real opposition it can be hard to ascertain a players resilience and ultimate potential for success.

I think the key for Dougal this season is to become consistently involved in the contest at SANFL level. Admittedly I hardly watch the Maggies due to my own footy committments, but those that do have all noted that he looked very much at sea at times last season.

The shift to the ruck during match simulation this pre-season, has no doubt helped his ability to stay involved in the contest from what I saw last night. Hopefully this translates to good SANFL form, giving us some depth if required, later in the season.

Had stress fractures (i think) for the first half of season 2015, but returned to play 12 SANFL games in the back half of the season.
