A rematch of last years epic semi-final. The Borough will be looking to bounce back after the horror match against Williamstown. Box Hill has a very good win against Essendon at home, however, it will be a different ball game against the Borough at TEAC oval. Batsanis is a big loss, however it is time to reset and take it up to Box Hill next week.

Port Melbourne by 7pts.

Port really can't afford to have any injuries if their got up to six injured
players from their seniors so I wish the best team to win . "GO STANGAS"

Port changes from last week. My opinion only.

INS: Burstin, Keddell, Martin, Burge, Suckling.
OUTS: Galea, Batsanis, McLaren, Henderson, Keely.

I think Malcolm Lynch and Matt Wall will fight for the last spot.

Cook would have to stay in the goal square and not move. Use his experience and hope the ball gets delived lace out like it used to from Christou, Ebeyer, Swan and company.

Its gonner be a big game on sunday for the boroughs

Have to make sure the box hill supportores will take no chance to ripp our banners

I went to training tonight and Gary took them into the rooms with all the players including injured players.

Gary said it in a firm way till they went out to training he said every player in this room if they say it is hard to train out of that borough ground , I will tell you to put your gear on and go home, He said that because to make the players really try unlike last week. If we do really try we can beat anyone but if we dont then we cant.

This is the same kind of game from last year it was one of the tuffest games ive ever watched the boroughs played in lets just keep doing this for the rest of the game and every quarter, TACKLE TACKLE TACKLE!!

Hopefully it will be a good game for the borough

How did the surface look Boroughforever? I'm guessing the surface won't have improved much with the amount of traffic on it in the last week.

Last years semi final is the best game of vfl footy i had seen in many years if not the greatest was pretty special to witness that.

"Silver" Schultz is a fantastic kid & a good player. It's great to see him getting a go & playing good footy.
However the real truth is that i'm afraid he would not be playing senior footy with the Roosters. In my opinion there is no way he would replace any of the small type players that the Roosters have at the moment.
Sad but true.
Station, whilst we are on small type ex Roosters, whats happened to Josh Free ???
