Both those teams look very close to full strength and very very strong. This should be a super game, hopefully the conditions are good.
Yep Port starting to get there best side on the park and building nicely.
You can make a good case for a handful of fringe players but the Borough will only be missing Sam Dwyer, Luke Tynan & Mitch Golby. Great to see Scipione back!
Dwyer named bur surely can't be coming straight back into the ones! I'd expect at least 2 to 3 games at DL level.
Borough Tv earlier on in the week said that they are going to ease Dwyer back into the first team football hoping to get a half out of him this week and to play the majority of the game the following week. On a Port Melbourne facebook fans forum a club official confirmed that the plan is to get him into the development before playing firsts.
Quarter time. Port 2.0.12 trailing Williamstown 5.4.34
Tough conditions and the Seagulls looking good. Ports goals coming late in the quarter.
Extremely impressing Williamstown were today and deserved winners.

In the DL, Port performed well, notching up an important two point win against the old enemy. For Port there were a few regular names that have been consistent performers at that level and must be pushing for a Senior spot with the below par performance of the Senior side this week.

A couple more photos from today's game.
Another photo.
The playing surface was saturated ; a few more mm and it would have been a swamp.
In reply to The playing surface was by blackrocker
No...I couldn't believe that !!
Not at the BEST ground in the comp.
Early mail is that the game next week maybe elsewhere.
