Travis Wakeling

Solid win lads, nice to see some numbers on the board for the likes of Watkins, Mackinlay and a few other role players. Berry’s best game too. But let’s be honest, Bombers were awful. Can only beat the oppo in front of you, onwards and upwards 👊 #AFLPowerDons

Mead down back is a yes from me #AFLPowerDons

@PowerNationSEN year 3, lessgoooo! #AFLPowerDons

A few very handy efforts from Corey Durdin early - think he’s going to be a handy pick up #AFLPowerDons

Oh my. Those @melbournefc away jumpers. That’s 2nd team areas looking like that #AFLFreoDees

@AlbertonPower Yeah without their bonus cash it would be a hard sell but cash and (the golf courses 🤣) might turn his head

@TravisWakeling Georgiades would be a hard sell being a WA boy and I think Bergman's partner has moved over here ( I think ).

Add Dougie to these two and it’s exciting times ahead! Just gotta get the picks considering the AFL want to make it hard for us…

@AlbertonPower I have a pretty strong feeling that Tasmania will go hard at Bergman and Georgiades who fall out of contract next year. As much as I’d love it, I can’t see us keeping those two and Butters. Retaining 2 of them would be huge. But regardless I can see picks coming in for someone

@TravisWakeling It's going to be tough, either way. Keep Butters, find the picks. Lose Butters, get the picks.

@nickturner_11 I think actually if Butters signed we’d be a better chance to nab Bailey Dougie, Zemes & Louis will all be stars and all accessible if we do miss out on Butters - but they don’t have the selling power of “play alongside the best midfielder in the game”

@TravisWakeling Unfortunately I can’t see it either. Crows in a much, much better position than us.

I hope as a club we are putting some level of pressure on Zak for an answer because if he’s gone I’d love us to offer a godfather offer to Zac Bailey. Young ish, superstar and from SA + wouldn’t cost us any draft capital. If we lose Zak we would have huge amounts of $ to spend.

@jdonohoe12 Awesome JD! Congrats legend, go well!

Looking forward to adding a bit of TV footy calling to the resume this year, excited to do all the Tassie VFL home games on Ch7 Tassie and 7 Plus with Russell Robertson. 📺 Still plenty of AFL on radio too! Big year ahead! 🏉 Kicks off Sat v Coburg at 12:05pm! 💪🏻

@Goose19PAFC He certainly shot that down - yes they will have picks but nothing that will appeal to Port

@TravisWakeling He made Beveridge look stupid in this segment when he said they had ‘Picks Aplenty’ 🙄

Cal is spot on - 3 first round picks isn’t what it used to be. You never want to lose a player like Zak, but if you are - you want to know ASAP and you want to nail this moment, because it could set up the club for the next 10 years whether he stays or goes!

A lot of people bagging Sam Konstas for his run of starts this season. I’m the opposite. He’s doing the hard bit - seeing off the new ball on spicy green pitches. If he can lock in and work on his conversion then he will become ultra consistent #SheffieldShield

The @AusWomenCricket just completed an exciting multi-format series against India, could this be the way forward in mens cricket, when @CricketAus mens teams take on lower ranked nations? Dizzy and @TravisWakeling discuss 👇 #cricket #podcast #dizzygillespie #stillnotout

Phew 😮‍💨

@NimmyTash He’s not now, but he missed a chunk in Jan/Feb and Marshall overtook him. If Marshall misses next week I’d suggest he will come in rather than Ramm.

@TravisWakeling Is he injured? He's not on the list. That's why I'm confused.

I don’t think I’ve ever been this nervous for Rd 1. Excited to see the changes, concerned for the overreaction of a loss 😅 Love the selection ethics with Luko, Mead missing out. Good to see Sav playing over Ramm - you can’t go all in on the future from Rd 1. Lessgoooo 🍐

Let’s handball the majority of the incoming media pressure to St Kilda now #zipandtwo #alltalk #AFLDeesSaints

Alright now it’s time to calm the farm, it’s round one, new coach. Plenty to improve on. Take it out on the Bombers next week pls 🙏🍐 #AFLNorthPort

Toddy 😢🙏 #AFLNorthPort
