Port Adelaide 2018

One of them is the President of the United States.

I can see the similarities between Trump and Kochie now you mentioned it!

Certainly not the hair.

Sounds like Hartlett has done a knee at training this morning.

[Booney]

Mike Smithson going hard for Channel 7. Wonder if he was told to do so?

Why did they send their most experienced reporter down there who doesn't cover footy? CH7 & PAFC relations at an all time low it sounds

Yep, their political reporter goes there to cover it. Interesting choice by C7, clearly wanted someone with more spine to ask the questions than the average sports journo.

Would like to be a fly on the wall in the next PAFC / C7 meeting.

Yep, heard the same thing.

What a fortnight

[Booney]

The young woman involved reportedly told the club she wanted "just a warning" given to SPP.

Tredrea tweeting the worst could be confirmed this afternoon.

[Dutchy]

To be fair Port have had a great run of injuries in the last 12+ months.

Can this presser be viewed anywhere online?

Will be on the PAFC social media platforms later today I'd expect.

What, the medical staff cant perform the Lachman test?

Not disputing that.

Comment was more referencing the fact that this just tops off what has been a horror 2-3 weeks.

I'd imagine they can and did, might just be letting the media department wrap up one thing before they deal with another.

Gotta love semantics.. even the phrase 5AA have used "lashes out" seems extreme but here's the press conference complete with Mike Smithson coming in off the long run.

Most enjoyable 20min all day, watching KT with the straight bat frustrating Smithson was delicious

Smithson "But, but...but"

( No pun )

[MW]

Sounds like you've got your own "rucci/crows" relationship in the media now

[The Bedge]

I could never be in a position like KT.. how you can sit there for 20min and listen to Mike Smithson and stay calm, cool and collected is beyond me
