I know it was only a trial match, but Errol Gulden's numbers were elite. 45 and 3 goals. Kids a jet

Sydney have a very good batch of younger blokes

Gulden, Warner, Campbell etc

They have a premiership in them once Buddy retires.

We don't get to play Port every week. Crows have improved alot and they'll easily finish above Port. 9-12 for them.

I just read this stat- the last player to record 45 disposals and kick three goals in an AFL match was Josh P Kennedy in round 19, 2016 against Fremantle.

No way. A team of midgets with a Dinosaur ruckman. They will run out of gas nothing surer. No way Port finish below the Blackbirds.

Nah I reckon Port finish more like 12 -14 and Adelaide will be in that 9-12 range.

Doesn't matter much except North will end up with another top 4 pick.

We all know you can take trial games with a pinch of salt but hey it's fun to discuss them. What did we learn from the last trial games:

-Kangaroos, West Coast and Essendon are rubbish. as expected,.
-Crows look like a side who will improve......how much is the question but they're not finishing below the above two and a few others.
-Grawndy are going to stretch teams this year.
-Brisbane/Port is going to be a cracker first up.
-Have we ever had a top four from four different states.....could be a chance this year with Brisbane, Sydney, Freo and a wealth of Melbourne teams.

Add to the list and then watch how wrong we got it by round 10.

I likened it to getting caught speeding 12 times in a couple of years but not losing your license.

Surely his cumulative fines have to result in a suspension?

Approximately one leader per 4 persons, not quite Holden's level but up there.
Whoops, there goes another year. Whoops, there goes another pint of beer.
