The lead is down to one thanks to Paul Saints picking six winners. Yours truly leads by one with 65 winners from Paul Saints who is on 64 winners and two tips ahead of Parry who has 62 winners. There is a mad scramble just behind the trio with Port diehard Bobby Borough on 61 winners just ahead of old Mustangs fan Glen 'Bombre' Barnard with Kain 'Casey'

Pollard and bomber fan Vaughan each on 60 winners. I'll submit on Friday when I will send a VFL Tips reminder George 65, Paul Saints 64, Parry 62, Bobby Borough 61, Glen 60, Kain

 (Casey) 60, Vaughan 60

FOOTYMAN ONLY TIPSTER TO PICK SEVEN WINNERS

Brad 'Footyman' Jamison was the only tipster to pick all seven winners therefore he collects $60. Brad is a past winner of the vfl tipping comp. Another $30 goes to the tipster who picks all seven winners. If more than one tipster picks all seven, the tipster nearest the aggregate score for the Port v Bendigo clash will collect. If no tipster pick seven winners, the prizemoney will jackpot to the following week.

AGGREGATE SCORE MATCH THIS WEEK

The aggregate score match this week will be between Port Melbourne v Bendigo which will be played at Teac Oval. The tipster nearest the aggregate score will collect $40. Former West Coast Eagles player this week signed up with the Borough and will most likely be running around for the borough sometime in August.

Cousins moves to relaunch AFL career

BEN COUSINS has taken a major step towards rekindling his AFL career by registering with Port Melbourne in the Victorian Football League.

Cousins, who was last year sacked by West Coast and suspended by the AFL for one year for bringing the game into disrepute amid his battle with drug addiction, had to nominate with the VFL by Monday to be able to play in that competition this year.

Although he currently has no plans to play in the second-tier competition, training with a VFL club will help Cousins maintain his physical condition if he decides to re-launch his AFL career by nominating for this year\'s national draft.

The VFL approved Cousins\' application, and Port welcomed the 2005 Brownlow Medallist into the fold.

THE Port Melbourne playing group would benefit greatly from having Ben Cousins at the club, says star midfielder David Pitt.

Pitt, who booted four goals to guide Port to a 51-point win against the Northern Bullants at Preston City Oval yesterday, said the Borough players were "excited" about the chance the Brownlow medallist will join them.

Cousins has indicated he will train and possibly play with Port to regain fitness for an AFL return next year.

"Gee he would be fantastic, we are pretty excited," Pitt said.

"I think he would help a lot of the young guys. Half our side is under 21, so if those guys can see how he trains, he\'s one of the best trainers in the AFL, those guys can see how much effort is involved to play AFL footy."

Roosters crow for coach Fitzgerald\'s 200th game

NORTH Ballarat celebrated coach Gerard Fitzgerald's 200th game in the best possible style yesterday, beating top side Williamstown by 48 points to remain unbeaten at home this season.

The Roosters jumped the league leader early, kicking 5.4 to just two behinds in the first quarter. North Ballarat continued to control the game barring a 15-minute lapse in the third quarter when it was outscored by the top side, who looked briefly as though it may pull off the most unlikely of comebacks.

However, the Roosters' stranglehold would prove too much for the Seagulls with prime movers Brett Johnson and Ben Jolley given little peace by Myles Sewell and Ed Lower. Dean Chester, Blake Grima and Stephen Clifton were consistent for the home side with the Roosters finding numbers in attack for the second week running with 10 different goal kickers.
