Northern Bullants v Port Melbourne

Fantastic outing down at Crammer Street yesterday. Thought Baird was tremendous down back, even floating further up the ground at times. Great set of hands. Dominated them for the first half, and it was really only a 15 minute period in the 3rd where they looked liked they would over run Port, but obviously that never happened. Interesting listening to the forward line huddle at 3/4 time, just giving themselves a rev up and reminding each other what needed to be done, and then to see the ball go straight down the middle and down Dukes throat. Really responded to what needed to be done. Unfortunately the shots at goal were not all that good. Robin played another good game, and seemed to be playing a far deeper role than he had been leading up to this game, giving some run out of the back line in the last. Good to see Port finish all over Northern. Would have been a shattering loss, but thankful never happened. In great form at the moment. Roll on next week!

Hopefully Milly's injury won't keep him out for long. Will David Fanning come straight back in? I didn't think Bloomfield did too much wrong, and Bona has been terrific around the ground. Luke Livingston must be one of the names mentioned at tonights Big V selection meeting alongside Bairdy as key defenders. Next week at TEAC Oval should be a beauty.. The Roosters will be stinging after such a heavy defeat, and Kangaroo David Trotter will probably miss after reportedly injuring his hamstring.

Really hoping Milly's ok. Thought he was bouncing back nicely after what i thought was an ordinary game the week before. Fanning would not dislodge Bona from the side, so if he was to come back in for a tall, it would probably be Bloomfield who would consider himself unlucky. Of course not knowing what's wrong with Fanning makes it hard. Looking forward to this weeks game.

Evan Murray – Northern Bullants (Reserves) Guilty of Striking – 1 Match Suspension that is a joke he should have got 10 weeks

I wondered if the camera didn't get footage due to the angle. It was mounted right at the back of the stand. That's not even 1 quarter of a suspension per punch thrown! :) Good to see a bit of biffo* (comments may not necessarily be politically correct).
