A massive game for both teams. The Borough want a good win after a shakey couple of weeks, and the Dolphins will be desperate to notch up a win and always seem to find something in these standalone clashes against the Borough.

Very interesting about Lucas Cook....A very high draft pick for Melbourne who struggled at Casey before coming back to North Ballarat. Played a few senior games but really struggled at the level.
Good fellow who deserves a change of luck & good to see him going well at Port.
Any of the first year players from Frankston that stood out ?
Cook has been fantastic this season.
A side from him being a high draft pick I can't recall seeing him play in the VFL previously but he's been a huge suprise. Reads the ball in the air really well much like Sam Pleming did and has the confidence and good hands to take a grab. Super smart player.. Wouldn't be the first player who had there development stunted at Melbourne.
Probably the big news for Frankston was young Jason Pongracic being best on. He missed almost all of 2014 but is a tough hard player and a leader who can make a big impact in future years. Apparently he had 18 tackles!
I agree with Pauls analysis of the Port side and unfortunately if We put in the same performance we did yesterday I think that we will most likely go down v essendon.
That's taking nothing away from Frankston who were competitive all day and if they keep up that performance they are sure to make life hard for some teams.
Off field this was the one club I enjoyed the most. The staff there were very friendly and came across as very appreciative of our patronage and purchases. The Frankston fans were great as well making us feel welcome in the rooms afterwards and having a chat with us. Activities at half time were great to see.
I think the club has the right idea and it is a ground I will be very happy in attending again. Excellent stuff.
The blokes on the hill, while witty at times, are a dead-set embarrassment to the club and the town in my opinion. The sledging usually starts off playfully enough, but as the alcohol takes effect during the day, it gets far too personal, is often racist and the language is awful. I take my 15yo son to games, and I completely understand why not many others take their kids. I'd love to see it be more of a family-friendly atmosphere, but these clowns kill that chance off, and undoubtedly cost the club quite a few family memberships.
Fortunately from the grand stand side you could not hear any of those comments. The impression that I had was that they were loud and passionate but obviously from the other side we were not able to hear individual comments otherwise my opinion may of been different.
I would think most clubs have similar supporters and their will always be bad eggs. The club like the world itself would have a variety of supporters both good and bad however having them all hang around together they will be more inclined to behave badly as they try and outdo one another with sering who can attract the most attention.
Most clubs would have the same issues. I don't like it when I see it however I try just ignore and accept it as their is limited things that I can do other than choose to not participate.

Toecutter, it was not 'the blokes on the hill' Bearsman was talking about. I stood with the regulars quite a bit last year and while I'm sure they haven't lived sin free lives, they didn't cross the line once that I heard.

The standout has been Daniel Capiron.Has played as 23rd man a few times and is a good chance to be drafted this year. Unlucky to miss out last year after being a bit inconsistent.
Another would be Kyle Gray.Emerging defender who should go on. Ive been really impressed with big Kalem Post. Workhorse ruckman who chases, tackles and kicks the odd goal. Has a great leap at centre bounces and often jumps over the top of taller opponents. Needs some work on his marking but a real asset this year.

I dont have a problem with the regular guys on the hill either. They're loud and passionate and are great supporters of the club. My problem was with the blow ins screaming at an umpire that he wouldnt effen get out of here alive, and if you do we know where you and your kids live you c**t.
Just one of the many examples of the crap that came from these morons on Sunday.
