North Port Oval not up to standard
August 04, 2016
From the Port Phillip Leader
This article appeared during the week detailing the continuing problems facing North Port Oval that have plagued the playing surface in recent weeks.
Hopefully the ground conditions improve and we have some drier weather in the lead up to September action or the VFL may consider moving games away from the ground.

WERRIBEE coach John Lamont referenced mosquitos and camels in a bid to inspire his team to victory in Sunday’s VFL clash against Northern Blues.
“Who’s been bitten by a mosquito? All of us, we all have been,” Lamont said to his players in the three-quarter-time huddle.
“Not many of us have been bitten by a camel, have we?
“It’s the little things that bite you.”
His words of wisdom had the desired effect as the Tigers booted 11 goals in the final half-hour and toppled the Blues by 63 points, 25.15 (165) to 15.12 (102), at Avalon Airport Oval.
Lamont’s address has since received plenty of attention on social media.
“It’s the little things that bite you — that was the crux of it,” he said today.
“As a coach you use things like that. It might resonate and stick in their head a bit more.
“They had a bit of a laugh and took the piss out of the coach a bit afterwards, but hopefully it sticks with them a little bit.
“I felt that we just made a few little errors that were costly.

Momentum continues to flow for the VFL Magpies who on Saturday won their ninth consecutive game with a 50-point victory over Geelong.
Five goals to one in the first term set an early pace which was maintained throughout the course of the match.
Collingwood added another five in the second term, before running out winners 13.14 (92) to 5.12 (42).
“It was a good performance by the boys,” returning forward Mason Coxtold Collingwood Media post game.
“We came out on top by quite a bit.”
Having an extra 211cm in the shape of Cox back in the team, the Magpies immediately looked dangerous up forward.
And the ball spent the majority of the first quarter in Collingwood’s forward line, with the midfielders winning the clearances 17-5 before the first break.
After playing 10 consecutive games in the AFL, Cox hasn’t taken the field at all in the last three weeks.
He was rested, then met the US Vice President, then was faced with the VFL bye before taking the field at Victoria Park.
