Port wins London Exhibition game

[neddie]

There is some full match videos on the AFL website, courtesy of Port Adelaide TV.
So it's a 1 camera, port commentator with a player job, pretty ordinary and biased but you can watch the entire game.

From what i've seen so far the game was pretty ordinary.

Fredi pretty muched summed it up perfectly.

* Howard was pretty oridnary once again. in the 2nd qtr he was running into an open goal to kick a soda from about 25 with no pressure, and he stubbed his toe or kicked it along the ground straight to the 1 port player standing on the line. Classic Howie

* Same poor delivery to tall targets
* Picken and Smith played like it was a regular season game, picken laying a nice bump that started a melee'
* Lots of kids in the side with Higgins the most experienced player out there and was easily the best.
* Koby Stevens was wearing number 16, looks a little like Griff with his tanned skin and hair colour, although he's a lot slower.

* Wasn't a big crowd, not sure what the ground holds, but probably just over half full.
* Apparently it was pretty cold, or so the commentator kept saying.

Dogs v Port

Best Players according to AustralianTimes.co.uk (dated 5/11) were Picken, Higgins, Veszpremi, Howard and Stevens. So much for your remark "classic Howie"!!!!!

I just watched the game on Bulldogs TV (3 quarters of it anyway).

How come not a single person has mentioned the 50 metre penalty against Skinner with 2 minutes to go (and us up by 11 points) that gifted Port a goal?

Because only 3 people bothered watching it?

Cold was an understatement.......freezing. definitely not typical London weather in early November. Going to be a long cold winter I think!

To be honest by that stage I was frozen, had drunk 7 or 8 pints and just wanted the game to end so that I could go to the Frog or Alex in Clapham and have a few pints to warm up!

Only one more sleep for this article to be replaced as the WOOF head article. It must have had a record run or I'm like a few others, impatient for the draft.
