More disappointment for the Borough faithful. 

The Dolphins ran out comfortable winners 16.12.108 to 11.7.73

Again Port Melbourne moved the ball well in patches. 

Again winning centre clearances (and hit outs)

Again winning inside 50s although narrowly

Again free kicks significantly in favour of the opposition

It was great to watch the final minutes to watch the Northern Bullants hold on to win their first game, breaking a losing steak of 21 games.

Hopefully the club really gets to enjoy the win and can build on their firm for the renaming games this year. 

It's a funny old comp.. The Swans knock off Southport last week and then get beaten by the Bullants a week later! 

Had a great day at North Port Oval

saw last quarter of VFLW then was timekeeping the legends game and VFL Match.

Legends game was a bit of fun.

VFL Game Port Melbourne dominated the territory in first half with +16 inside 50 count but could not score. In the end Williamstown won by 17 points 14-5(89) to 11-6(72) despite Port having 61-43 inside 50s at games end.

Harvey Hooper won Frank Johnson. medal for Port’s best player today.

Good crowd in great conditions. 

I'm told that as of 2026 there will be a two-tier division for the VFL comprising stand-alone in 1 division and AFL/VFL aligned clubs in a second structure.  I haven't read or seen any further reporting either on TV or the print media.  Anyone enlighten me?

ST KILDA will field its own VFL side in 2026 after ending its alignment with the Sandringham Zebras.

Leading comfortably at half time only to be overrun by a dogged Coburg who deserved the win after we squandered opportunities in front of goal and at times had some horrid entries into the forward 50.

I'm pretty disappointed to come away with the loss this week. I felt it was a danger game coming into the game but after setting up the game in the first half, I feel like we aren't deserving of sneaking into the final 10.

Coburg have become something of a bogey side for Port in recent years.
