Very sad to hear the news of the death of Barry Round.
I still clearly remember him kicking a goal in the forward pocket for Willy at the Junction Oval, taking it out of the rock and kicking the goal in one motion. A VFA legend.

Recruiting spree has Port set to return to upper echelon

PORT MELBOURNE is back in town, or at the city limits at least judging by its stunning recruiting spree over the past month.
On Wednesday the Borough announced a quartet of quality signings, headed by former Essendon speedster Dylan Clarke and ex-Gold Coast Suns Joel Wilkinson and Mitch Riordan (from Sandringham), plus Oakleigh Chargers midfielder Angus Curry.
Their arrivals come on the back of last week’s coups of landing former Sydney ruckman Sam Naismith, prolific GWS GIANTS VFL midfielder Josh Green and Melbourne-listed Fraser Rosman, who would be a Casey Demons premiership player but for a hamstring injury suffered in the preliminary final win over the Brisbane Lions.
