Their forward line is a good mix, with wingard, s.gray, r.gray and power forward Dixon
All Australian Ryder.
Its their mids that really lack some class and poise. Good strong body mids with wines, powell-pepper and ebert.
These are all good trades to bring in these types. The question is will they be able to get more consistency from Motlop?
Watts is a waste of talent. Maybe Hinkley can change that around

Ryder might not be there next year as the courts don't take well to police assaults ( if true)
Surprised they didn't keep Trengove just in case.

They are certainly going for broke it would seem. It's probably a flag or bust isn't it.
The "premiership window" is turning out to be a furphy with the last two winners. Us and the tigers just took the chance when it popped up. The premiership window mentality is a trap. This year make the finals, hopefully win one. Next year a prelim, stuff that, make the finals and try win the flag seems the way to go. That's where list management is the key to always being there abouts like Sydney. You gotta be in it to win it. I think Port will be well placed with these moves to make a tilt for the flag next year.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

Good point.

Has he been accused of police assault? Story was that he was trying to break things up

Yep. Conversation in the stringer worth thread ongoing on it.

If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

I wouldn't think there is a lot of difference between he and Rockcliff so it's about on the money.
Now if they are just interested in Stringer and he with them it might get interesting.

Jake Niall quoting Paul Keating in saying Geelong have been struck in the arse by a rainbow .
