Port practice match report

That's why it should be a public poll, so all the names are listed.

Fair enough, will see what others feel.

Much appreciated Liz,

Vogels alternated between forward and back, looking far more valuable in attack than defence. Yet the absence of White from the squad suggests that Vogels is a probable for the West Coast game.

I thought I read somewhere that everyone who had already played 3 preseasons games were dropped for this encounter? However, I still don't think that means White will be playing in round one.

Great report Liz, it was tops, well done.

Have you ever thought of sports journalism as a job ?

Surely all your previous history in the game will help ?

There would have been plenty more sitting out if that was the case.

Roos said earlier in the week that it would pretty much be the final squad to take on the Eagles - obviously with a couple of top-ups since the bench was bigger - and that no-one who didn't play in this game would come into consideration for round 1. He later identified Kennelly as the one possible exception to this when there was doubt over his shoulder recovering in time.

Am I right to assume that Spida didn't play? Are the team lists for the game somewhere online?

Didn't play the last quarter due to "hamstring tightness" according to one report.

Leo was good. He couldn't do much due to the good delivery from ports midfield but one thing im really concerned about is that he's most likely gonna give up front position most times. There were a few times he was caught for chopping the arms of Ebert and i reckon he may be caught alot more times this year.
