I did very much like the drive-by on Travis Boak, who was yet another Port player (Hartlett, Rozee) to go to ground holding his head in his hands when he appeared to get shoulder contact.

Marlion and Boak went for a ground ball and Boak was left on the ground clutching his head and Marlion went off with the ball. Boak is an excellent contested ball player.

Just showed him on the news with strapping round the right calf.
If he gets up will be playing 2nd GF in a total of 20 games.
Amazing.
Hope it's only a precaution.

Was just a compression bandage so more about aiding recovery I would think.

Story on Ch7 stating that he nearly ‘pulled out ‘ before the finals...

Anyone know what this story is about?

Had 4 kids already and was sick of looking after a 5th in Sydney Stack, all good once he left ;)

Cheers waiting, when you say "was missing his family", are his wife and kids not with him in the hub?

Cant be easy for him. Second year in the system, with a large young family and on a reduced rookie wage - to go along with all the other abnormalities of the season.

I'm tipping an almost repeat of last years heroics. Hoping like hell he's not injured of course. Like most, I think he's done it tougher than most
this year, and his on field form has reflected this. He can play, he runs all game, and is just itching for another chance at a medallion.

Need to trade the bloke for everyone’s sake. Hopefully someone in WA offers a decent contract and he can reunite with his entire family. Win win for all especially if goes well on Sat night

His kids and wife are up at the hub.

He considered going back because there was a death in the family and his father is in and out of hospital.

This hub has helped him financially I imagine. All living expenses for the entire family paid for by the AFL/Club.
