Alipate CARLILE

2016 Digest:   A key component of the back six as he takes the opposition’s monster forward. Has had an interrupted pre-season with getting his body right for another season but is in terrific shape at the moment and the rehab work he has done has held him in good stead.

2016 NAB Cup:   Saw good game time down back in the first and last games. Port can’t afford for him to miss extended periods this year.
