08.01.2022 R9 Match Report Port v Kingborough Port Women travelled to the Twin Ovals to take on the Kingborough Tigers in fine conditions on Sunday. From the first bounce Port were right on top with captain Michelle Cowen in the ruck giving her onballers first use who cleared the ball well and quickly moved the ball into the forward line, with 5 goals straight kicked for Port in the term.... The trend continued for the remainder of the game with Port dominating the play against a young undermanned Tigers team who fought out the game with great heart, slowing down Ports scoring efficiency as the game wore on. In a great display of sportsmanship Port dual permit players Sammy Kluga and Sophie Lovell selflessly offered to play for the Tigers for the day to even up the numbers and prevent a potential forfeit, both girls played solid games and their efforts were appreciated by Tigers stand in coach Harry Burrows. In another great team effort Stacey Fox was all class up forward taking many contested marks, kicking 8 goals and giving many more off. Georgia Jones was outstanding for Port with her speed to run and carry the ball forward, while Ellie Doyle was again unstoppable, using her strength to break tackles and clear the ball through the centre. Port ran out the game 105 point winners moving them up into 4th position on the SFLW ladder. The women now face Hobart at Cygnet on Saturday in their last roster match for the season. A win would likely ensure Port of a maiden finals berth Final score Port 16-11-107 Tigers 0-0-2 Goals Stacey Fox 8 Liarna Reid 1, Amy Sharp 1, Ellie Doyle 1, Abby Doyle 1, Brooke Griggs 1, Chiara Nyhuis 1, Hollie Hasell 1, Tayla Clifford 1 Best Stacey Fox, Georgia Jones, Ellie Doyle, Tayla Clifford, Liarna Reid, Jessica Oneill Incentive Awards went to Abby Doyle, Sophie Lovell and Sammy Kluga Port Women’s team would again like to thank our game day sponsors who kindly donate awards each week Huon Aquaculture EIS Property/Nyal Merdivenci Eaves Welding Brereton and Maher Builders Goat Property Services/Fred Webster Sharp’s Electrical Bec Munnings and Mandee Brasher Cygnet FC Bottom Pub Cygnet #supporttheport2020

05.01.2022 The Bell Family Tower As part of the infrastructure upgrades at the Cygnet Oval, the Club, with the assistance of the Huon Valley Council, also upgraded the T...imekeepers Box. The Box has been enlarged, reclad and lined internally, and will now be be know as The Bell Family Tower in honour of three generations of Bells who have controlled the stopwatch at Port games for many decades. Ivan took over the timekeepers role in 1958 from his Uncle Jack and before him was Ivans father Tom and grandfather Bob. Ivan was only 13 years old at the time and he is still sitting in the Box every home game some 62 years later. In recognition of their fine service to the Cygnet Football Club, Tom was awarded Life Membership in 1965 and Ivan was awarded his in 1976. What a fantastic family tradition and we hope Ivan has many more years in "The Tower".

05.01.2022 Well done to Port Womens Dana Van Andel who played for the Kingborough Tigers SFLW team vs Claremont as a permit player on Sunday. Dana, 21, is playing in her 2nd season of footy having made her debut for Port in 2019, and made an impact on the field with her height and athleticism. Its great for footy that we can help our neighbour clubs out when their numbers are low, we also thank Kingborough for helping us out with permit players for several games last season.

05.01.2022 PORT PLAYER PROFILE Sophie Lovell has made the transition to Port after a season at Huonville, having also played junior footy in the Southern Storm U17s. Soph is able to read the game really well and is versatile at either end of the ground with her reliable ball skills. She also shows great leadership on and off the field. Football is a big part of life for Sophie with her Dad coaching and younger brother playing in our Southern Storm colts team, which played a big part in her decision to come play for Cygnet. We love having Soph and her team spirit in our Port Womens team for 2020. #supporttheport

02.01.2022 R5 match report v Lindisfarne The Port Women faced ladder leader Lindisfarne at home under lights on a clear and chilly Friday night, Taylah Dillon lead out the team in her 50th game for her club. Port won early clearances with Tayla Clifford, Ellie Doyle and Hayley Kluga prominent. The majority of play was in Ports forward 50, but the defence of the Lady Blues held firm rebounding well to score the first goal until Stacey Fox kicked truly late in the quarter to get Port on ...the scoreboard. Port continued to work hard, with Abbey Reinmuth, Ashton Oates and Georgia Jones all involved in great passages of play, Ella Brereton and Liarna Reid were strong across half back, although Port were unable to find a way to goal and went into halftime 14 points down. The women lifted their intensity in the 3rd quarter, moving the ball well and playing with confidence, Bel Sharp, Dillon and Abby Doyle all solid in defence, clearing their area when needed. Port surged forward on many occasions without reward until Clifford launched a barrel from long range to clear the line and give her team momentum heading into the final term. With the game still up for grabs the women gave everything in the final term, attacking every contest and sticking their tackles. Amy Sharp threaded a great goal to close the gap to a single kick, only to see a quick reply. Ellie Doyle continued to put on a masterclass, breaking tackles and clearing the ball, racking up 38 disposals for the night. Fox nailed another goal with 5 minutes to go but the Lady Blues showed their class and experience to hold Port out and go home with a 12 point win. Port will take plenty of positives to out of the game and look forward to playing at home again next Saturday vs Brighton.
