Well done chooks, has put a spanner in the works for prefered Grand Final. In saying that, Port will take some beating now at there Home Patch. They looked good today.

Given where the ground was said to be at a few weeks back I suppose credit is due to the groundspeople but it was a long way from the standard expected at this level. No grass in the centre and several large bare patches particularly at the scoreboard end. Crowd size was excellent. Easily the biggest I have seen as a visitor to North Ballarat. Umpiring was often mystifying both ways. Some really poor calls.

So did you get over 500? Lets see how many turn up at Port in two weeks time before you start blowing your bugle! A Port flag by about 50 points will do me.

I don't think anyone would have been blowing their bugle about the crowd today at Port vs Weribee - would have been lucky to been 1,500. Pretty disappointing for a game in which the minor premiers hosted a home final against a Club just 30 minutes down the freeway.

[quote="Dale61"]Of the players that played today, how many will be ineligible next week, seeing as though the Kangas are done?[/quote Corey Jones is the only one that cannot play in 2 weeks that played today. I think only two can come back, Ed Lower and Gavin Urqhuart will be back for the Roosters Prelim. Not sure about Werribee.

The seated area at North was full and plenty of people viewing from in the social club and around the ground. Five hundred easily topped.
