R8: Eagles v Port - Saturday 14 May @ Woodville Oval

[goddy11]

The umpire over seeing the Dougal Howard report was so far out of his depth. He was about to let Howard take the kick, despite having reported him moments earlier, if not for the experienced umpire it would have been farcical.

Howard offered a one match ban, a $200 fine and reprimand for an early guilty plea.

Me, I say give them the $200 and get away before they change their minds!

Agreed. $200 fine is peanuts for AFL list players. He's probably on more than the entire WWT team salary cap.

Maybe he should give that money back or the entire team should lol

Eags looked a lot better in the second half today and if not for poor finishing would have won by 10 goals.
Gafney continues to impress, Goldsworthy's best game for the year as was Hall and Petrenko would have picked up votes again.
The Power reserves, reserves were totally uncompetitive, beaten by 120 points. Is there a point to having them?

No point..........much like the so called league side!!

What do Port players of yesteryear think of this pathetic team/club?

They'd be very proud that they have an AFL team I'd think.
Any Port player pre-afl would be very proud of Port's SANFL record and very proud that they achieved AFL status.
Those who played post-afl, at a guess, aren't as likely to see the SANFL side in the same way.

As for the Reserves reserves. There is always an argument that by playing better opposition it helps you to raise your own game and this would be one reason for wanting the AFL Reserves in the SANFL league.
But if I don't see any value in having a team that gets belted week after week, if anything, I'd argue that it would have the opposite effect particularly on younger players,

Maybe it might be fairer all round if Crow Reserves and Port Reserves automatically received bans and not fines being as the level of the fine means so much less to them than it does to their SANFL counterparts.

103, yet only 100 would have been counted.
Hence the count would have been reduced.
Are we going slow enough for you mate?

Booney is not an accountant or a (w)banker. He is a port supporter which means he is a criminal. Very simple, use small words for our wharfie friend.

No need to thank me Boon, just stick to the wharf my friend and ill stick to my lattes

You're accusing me of criminal activity because I'm a Port supporter? Oh, I see, how many handbags adorn your walk in robe?

Nothing changes the count, it is what it is. The crowd however does change. Two different things.

Just for you, I'll make sure I use plenty of emoticons in future. That should help you to recognise humour.
In the meantime will you please stop stalking me. You are making yourself look a bit foolish.........mate.

[Booney]

Stalking.

Count means they've been counted Booney, so if you reckon there's a 103 people actually in the ground, and 100 of them have been counted....
