At the moment Port's ruck stocks are not high, but Trengove has got a ot of the ball as another on-baller. We must make sure that does not happen.
Phillips was OK last week, but not at his best. I hope he has the stamina to go against Port.
Otherwise we are down to Casboult and Rowe. That is a frightening thought.
Congratulations to Polson for getting his chance to impress.
Live Long and Prosper!

Ryder's suspension is done, he should be clear to return this week.
He had 48 hit outs against Sam Jacobs in Rnd 3, not that Hit Outs really mean much, but that is a fair performance against a non-spud ruckmen! :o

Kreuzer is a big out, he normally tears it up against PA.
2017-16th
2018-Wooden Spoon
2019-16th
2020-dare to dream? 11th is better than last I suppose
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot
2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time

Kreuzer is out unfortunately ,Phillips back in ,I am sure he will be adequate as a ruckman but is he fit enough .I suppose we have no choice as Gorringe also injured.
I don't think anyone hates Daisy. He's well liked and doing his best, just that, sadly, his best doesn't seem to be any better than an honest average these days.
Glad Crippa has come up.
Ripper that young Polson gets his initiation.
Hopefully 'Flip' can take a leaf out of the Tractor's book re second, third, fourth efforts...
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

we've certainly got some real speed on the park with SPS, Pickett, Polson, Williamson.
I reckon Pickett will have a break out game soon and kick 5 or so. hopefully tomorrow.
A very winnable game, even without Special K.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

I think the new 3rd man rule changes greatly improve Phillips chances against Ryder, they are both high jumpers and assuming Phillips is right to go he should be a reasonable match.

That's 8 out of our 11 draft picks from 2015 and 2016 playing this week, awesome result. Out of the three that aren't two are big Forwards that I expect will play in the future.

I hate Port, right up there with Essenscum... but not quite there yet 
I hope and have confidence that we will take it right up to them.
Something that hasn't been mentioned is our ability to score a little easier. We have a few avenues to goal and seem to be hitting the score board more often than last year.
So if our backline stands up and our midfield runs BOTH ways we should be thereabouts.
Oh did I say I hate Port?
Go Baby Blues!

Just saw this from Port supporters
"Taking into account PAFC's mental frailties when playing teams below us, this is anyone's game"
And were talking about how Dixon is their only key forward. LOL
