Peter Jackson VFL 2017
Port Melbourne 2.5 5.9 8.11 12.15 (87)
Northern Blues 2.4 2.5 4.9 8.10 (58)
GOALS:
Port Melbourne: Lisle 7 Pearson Nahas Cain O'Sullivan Wooffindin
Northern Blues: Jaksch 2 Fisher 2 Gallucci Armfield Sumner McKay
BEST:
Port Melbourne: Mihocek O'Sullivan Sandilands Lisle Viojo-Rainbow Cain
Northern Blues: Graham Silvagni Polson Sheehan Wilson Stavrou
Something of a disappointment, considering the number of Carlton listed players available. I cannot gainsay the above comments: they saw the game and I didn't. However, it is the first time for the season that we have played this poorly. Even in our loss to Richmond a few weeks back there were good signs.
Gussy Sheehan will play senior footy this year, if he stays fit. He has the right attitude and strength. Injuries probably have hurt his pace: he was quicker than Tuohy.
The one we miss is the other Irishman, Ciaran Byrne. He has the PACE and the willingness to RUN out of defence. But it will be next year before he is really back to what we need.
