I've just finished watching the replay. Amazing game of footy. Terrific pressure put on Collingwood with O'Keefe racking up 17 tackles and McKellar strong down back.

I thoughts Port's skill level was better than the Magpies, whose forward entries and ballo movement was more about quick movement long kicking that created some unpredictable entries. 

When Borg missed the goal from short range midway through the last, I thought the tide might have turned but full credit to her and the rest of the side that never let up. 

Hopefully next year the women's games bring in 'time on'.

I normally take a couple of photos at each game was obviously too caught up in the game and forgot!

For an old  VFA codger like me it was good to see an old style VFA type Sunday crowd at  North Port. Oval again.

It is a pity those days are well gone and in the past for the current VFL/ex VFA  teams,

Digs yes mate, you read my mind - I was thinking of this yesterday and I believe if Williamstown increases their premiership count by adding the 2 division 2 flags to their tally then we have every right to ad the women's premiership as well - so their you have it, it's 18 now !!!! 

It's not all good news though Digs my great pal, we have unfortunately run out of room in our trophy cabinet - I'm guessing you've got some for sale due to having no use for them ?

Yes was indeed a great time for North Melbourne football club. Probably gave them (false) hope of that success transitioning to their firsts.

We have been through that before Mega !

Seven North Melb rookies does not make it North Melbourne.

Two failed attempts from Port could not make it work previously.

Good to see it still burns in your guts to see a team of bush kids flog the great Bourough.

One you will never take from us.

Read it & weep.

Do yourself a favour and instead of talking about your vfa premierships trophies go give them a polish - all 3 of them !!!!

All in good fun Paul - I think Digs knows that ild never seriously have a go at another Port Melbourne supporter,
