From the match report on the NBs' website:
Two blokes doubling up is interesting and it would certainly disadvantage the side. Buckley was a very late withdrawal but someone else must have pulled out too.
Quote:Matthew Dick and Mark Whiley led the way for the Blues, finishing with 24 disposals apiece to be their side’s most prolific.
Kye Declase and Daman Aujla took their spots in the senior side after playing full games for the Development team earlier on.
Port Melbourne kicked away in the third term with a seven goal to two quarter, led by Jordan Lisle (three goals).
Liam Jones and Clem Smith both kicked their second goals of the game to give the Blues a small boost heading into the final quarter, but Port had all the momentum.
Northern fought hard in the last quarter but wastefulness cost them, kicking 2.6 in the final term to eventually go down by 44 points.
First-year Blue David Cuningham also got his fair share of the ball with 22 disposals, while Andrew Gallucci was impressive with 18 disposals and four inside 50s.
