She's a rookie umpire and can only be an emergency. She will only come on the field if an umpire is injured. That's my understanding anyway.

Could someone step on Nicholl's toe, accidentally of course.

No mention here of that special thing that is supposed to be happening pre-game that we need to be seated at 230 for??

 

[philreich]

I'm sure the boys will make it well worth the wait!!!

 

[philreich]

Tomorrow it'll be Sunday tomorrow - does that help?

 

[Doctor Feel]

Players all over social media expressing excitement. They can't wait.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Is a pity that this game ain't tomorrow, Easter Sunday games in Adelaide don't work.

Yrs ago the Qld Gov ran an ad campaign about Qld being "beautiful one day, perfect the next".
This bananabender says Sow fiz stray lee'ah what's it like? "So much more than 1/2 an hour behind" I told him, you wouldn't like it.

I went the Camries vs. GWS game on Easter Sunday in 2014 and I think there were 45,000 there. I see no reason why we won't have a similar figure at our game tomorrow. Hopefully more!

I'll be able to watch a PAFC game while wearing a PAFC guernsey for the very first time - courtesy of faquito!

As for the selection, I found it a bit strange that both Broadbent and Pittard would be on the bench as I am a fan of both, but I guess with the interchanges it doesn't matter that much?

I was hoping we would see a bit of Toumpas in the first round but the 22 look very solid and Broadbent-Pittard-White-Ah Chee look like the natural selection out of the previous extended bench.

Very much looking forward to a full game of Dixon and Wingard upfront, with Neade creating havoc with his running. That half-forward trio is my favorite part of the team at the moment without a shadow of a doubt!

Yea not sure why anyone thought Toump would walk into the side, nice to see he had good stats against Nord though

Generally, the side doesnt line up as named and there is no requirement that they do.

Its just a side that is released to the media, but clubs dont want to reveal too much to the opposition.

Thought this too, went into West Lakes to do some shopping and there were Port fans everywhere. Did not see one Crows flog

 

[Marmozet]

Tried to make a bet with a St Kilda bloke from work, but he said he only wants to make it 10 goals in for me to win the bet

They were watching the SANFL game or at Oakbank.

If all goes according to plan, I'll be watching at the new pub in Melbourne. I've been there a couple of times to suss it out and it looks the goods, I reckon it'll be better than Bells. Hope there's a big turnout of Port people and that the atmosphere is right up there.

 

[Adam Marrett23]

It's almost game day the long wait is almost over, I will be watching it at home with my daughter as per our round 1 tradition every year.

Am absolutely pumped for tomorrow haven't been so excited for a player debut for our club in Dixon for a long time. Ryder didn't excite me as much as Charlie does.

Let's hope we get a big win and start 2016 with a bang.
