Port are sending their seconds side to Darwin!What a joke .Deserve to get done.
Its kind of ionic, given that the Port reserves would flog the TSL side that has been chosen for the state game.Can't blame them. All their best players have been chosen to play in the state squad in Darwin next week.
While just about all other clubs have had a week off at this stage, Port hasn't.
Shows the difference between the major leagues and the not so major leagues.
Absolutely.. I played in the match, and while we had some key players out (ilett, Vassel, roe, tapp and farrer), port obviously had even more out than us. Was a huge lift in intensity compared to neafl; their spread, skills, structures & overall fitness levels made us look second rate, particularly in the last 3 quarters (level at qtr time).
Certainly not the end of the world for us, just a real eye opener to the level we should aspire to get to, all credit to them they were very professional & the heat/travel factors seemed very minimal.
Anyone know how Tristan Francis has been going this year for port..?

Where's all the posters that bagged the SA sides for not entering or putting in weak sides now
Yeah, I was surprised how easy Port Melbourne did it, although if the Thunder weren't full strength then I could understand it. After they nearly knocked off East Perth last year I expected a little better.
Interesting that the 2 NEAFL teams left are currently sitting last and 2nd last in the Northern conference. Shame they're probably going to get fustigated in the next round. A full strength top NEAFL team could give a team from one of the big 3 leagues a scare, like NT did last year.
Agree totally, NEAFL northern (old qafl comp) is very underrated. Evident by mt gravatt/morningside sitting bottom.
QLD state side only lost by 5 points to WAFL in Mandurah last year.
I was at the game.
Whilst QLD did very well, WA buggerised around in the last quarter.
Yeah that's true, but it was a huge improvement on the 100+ losses in the past.
Also interesting to see that the NEAFL Northern beat Eastern by 25 goals yesterday. There's clearly a large gap between the 2. Queensland probably deserved to play Victoria yesterday ahead of Tasmania. They would have got smashed, but it might have been a little more competitive than than the 20 goal to 3 shellacking that Vic v Tas was.
Queensland beat Tassie two years ago.
One interesting in for Port will be Steven Salopek, who has just been cleared from Glenelg to play for the Magpies. Tomorrow will be Salopek's first game as a Port Magpie.Port should win tomorrows game by 200 if they put close to their best team on the park.Anyone got any idea what team they will choose?Who should TV spectators look out for as will prob watch the 1st half from my Gold Coast lounge room?
Morningside are the worst team in the qld comp atm, will be a blow out. Get on the 44 line!
