Nothing that Scrobolak does
"I'm wondering if that's the same with Nash Holmes.. We would have polled votes in the JJ Liston at the start of the season, but it's mysteriously now onlt listed as an emergency after being dropped following the loss to the Seagulls. "
Nothing that Scrobolak does would surprise me. He did some very strange and arse about things things in his time at Frankston.
In reply to It's the hardest thing for me by Bearsman
As I understand it Freeman fell out of favour with the senior playing group due to a number of factors. I was told the leadership group demanded buy in to doing things the team way.
While I don't know all the details of this situation by any stretch, in general terms it's best not to have someone at the club who isn't a genuine part of the group, no matter how talented they are. Culture is king. A tight-knit group will perform above themselves, a divided group the opposite.
Just finished watching the replay. The Borough will rue the slow start and missed opportunities in front of goal.
Anastasia's shot at goal as the siren sounded was a very tough chance and Port should have made more of earlier chances.
Naismith again proved a pivotal player for Port and aiming that we lose him to the mid season draft, I think our chances of playing finals footy might go with him.
A good crowd in attendance, especially considering the low supporter base of GWS.
