Round 5: Port v Sturt - Sunday 7 May @ Alberton Oval

Port v Sturt
Sunday 7 May
Alberton Oval

Reserves: 11:25am
League: 2:10pm

It's one of the form teams of the competition against a premiership side yet to get on the board in 2017. Will this be the week for Sturt, or will Port inflict more misery on Sturt.

Since being beaten by the terrific Tigers in round 1, Port have been impressive. Helped by a lack of injuries in the AFL team, the Power reserves are fielding almost an entire team of AFL listed players.
Sturt have had some big losses, including to the bustling Bays and are looking a shadow of last years team.

Port by lots

Ditto, Port by lots. I hope Sturt win though.

Yep I agree
Sturt goal kicking doesn't help with their woes of injuries ect

have Sturt got anyone due to come off the injury list this week ?

i thought Sturt weren't that bad against the Eagles & may pose some problems for the Power reserves, however i can't see them getting it done, the Power reserves by 11 points

Hard to go against Port, especially at home, but I have a bit of faith in Sturt so will go for them in an upset by 4 points.

Port will be too good.

Congratulations to Steven Summerton on 200 games. Will be the last player ever to play 200 games for the magpies I'd suggest.

Never in doubt, it was like watching men versus boys......has the dimensions of Alberton changed a bit? Sitting in the outer I thought the boundary line was in about 2 metres on previous years

Yes, it has.

Thanks Phil, I'll presume it has something to do with being the same or as close as possible to the Adelaide oval dimensions, thanks again my friend

Not much gets past Bayman.

that's because of my size

Does anyone have an official attendance for this game?
