Port in trouble?
Did Port Power have in effect two players on the ground in the last qtr last night that should not have been there?

That Connor Rozee though...
Maybe Amon could get in his ear on the way out and bring him along too

Re: Port in trouble?
Doubt it.
1. AFL pretty soft/lack conviction about its own rules & obligations.
2. Players Assoc will be quiet.
3. Port doctor will say no evidence of concussion at the time.
4. Press will accept black being described as white. With a knowing smile
5. Boys will be treated privately and may miss a game due to a corky or hamstring strain.

Re: Port in trouble?
If the AFL continues to leave opportunities for the rules to be bent then clubs will continue to do so (as they should).

Re: Port in trouble?
They have been exploiting the Sub Rule all year, so its about time their practices had the spot light shown on them. Hinkley was well prepared and quite emotive when questioned about it - so they know its coming. They are a club that have a history of bending the rules way before they even entered the AFL.

Re: Port in trouble?
Need independent Dr at games watching video like NRL which often pulls a player out of the game minutes after a clash for a concussion assessment.
The fact there was 10 minutes left in the game and they need to be off for 20 minutes is a pleasant convenience.
if they miss next week it will be soreness or rested

Re: Port in trouble?
I'm bloody delighted with Max and was from the day we drafted him but jeepers - Connor is just the shizz. What a jet he is. As is Butters (tough as too despite his size - just had a bad run with injury).
Go you red, black & white warriors

Agreed on all points. No regrets with Max... just think that Roz would look great in his homegrown colours

They mentioned it more than once, esp after his goal

Re: Port in trouble?
He had a lot of mates on both teams. Cold, dewy night at the G doesn't make for clean skills. I mean - the classiest player on the ground kicked 5 behindsolder saint wrote: ↑Fri 10 Jun 2022 2:42pmApart from the 1 goal I thought he butchered it a fair bit by foot last nightskeptic wrote: ↑Fri 10 Jun 2022 2:27pmAgreed on all points.

That being said - nothing to see here - move along!!

Re: Port in trouble?
Port showed their true disdain for the sub rule when they removed Georgiades from the Saints game in the wet, allegedly suffering from a leg injury , so they ( luckily for them ) could bring on a sub who was much better suited to the conditions. Georgiades miraculously recovered from his “injury “ and played the next week.

Re: Port in trouble?
This week, a port player supposedly had a calf injury.
Bet he will have a miraculous recovery, like all the others subbed out by the Port cheats in the 4th quarter.
Someone should keep a record and let the AFL know that their sub rule is being exploited..
