In the past there has only been a food truck open.
For a bar to be open, it would most likely have to be a gated event depending on the liquor licence.

Best to grab something on the way to the ground, there is a servo and Woolies nearby.

Food truck only if its free entry.

No bars open.

It will be an alcohol free event and no alcohol brought in.

Amazing tho it still Vic park so i have Vic park and beer drinking going hand in hand so im not sure.

Theres a lot of bars on Johnson street anyway.

Fortuitous free kick just before half time - Port defender walked the ball over the goal under no pressure - and Pies 5.4.34 lead Port 1.0.6.

Good first half by the Pies, working hard around the packs and some good delivery into the forward 50.

Need to keep it up in the 2nd half as Port are a quick running side and like last week against North, the Pies are succeptable on quick transition.

Pies kept scoreless in the 3rd qtr, lucky to be still in front as Port did all the attacking that quarter.

Port running harder and getting the ball, Pies were unable to get the ball into their forward 50.

Pies 5.4.34 lead Port 3.3.21

I was at the match.

Great first half must say was there best first quater that i can remember this season.

Pretty much set up the match.

Fell asleep in the third quarter.

Brought it home in the final quarter.

Must say the weather was windy and was blowing right towards the yarra falls end and was around a 4 goal advantage.

Very hard kicking to the Sheerin or city end.

At half time the rain set in and made it very wet and slippery.

must say this helped our lead be that a 4 goal to zero to port in quarter 3.

The weather fined up in the last quater where the pies kicked away.

Was proabably the Pies best game this season.

Had a good kicking game going and nice run off half back and nulitfyed ports forwards.

Pies play essendon at Vic park in a premlim for a place in the GF.
1 PM kick off.

Was hoping that we earnt a week off but its next weekend dont get it.

Thought port play carlton in an elim and collingwood get a week off.

Anyway we are in it.

Potential for a collingwood v carlton gf.

The winner of pies and essendon get a home gf to be played at Vic park if pies win.
