I am inclined to agree.

With Jars gone and White just about finished, we look really slow on the outside.

Port Power have a great ghost writer at the club.

Smart business, cashing in on the contrast to the Lever situation.

Right in the feels :(

Best of luck, Jars. A terrific lad, who like many, showed early promise and failed to take that next step.

A life changing year for him filled with heartbreak, turmoil and struggles. Hopefully a press of the re-set button does him the world of good.

Will always be welcome through the doors.

Good luck to Impey. I really rate him. I don’t think he will but I hope he doesn’t hurt me as much as the other indigenous footballer who went to the hawks from port.

Ghost writer or not, the way the Trengove/Impey departures have been handled by Port has been extremely good, and a stark contrast to the Crows the way they've handled players leaving - Lever/Dangerfield/Tippett etc.

Port have openly celebrated the efforts of those players with their little video montages/highlights and publically wishing them well, as well as the players penning their letters to the fans (or ghost writer), where as the Crows have just been well total spoilt brats about it.

Crows are always in the thoughts of Port supporters.

Just comparing the two situations and how differently they've been handled.

The way impey, Cameron and Lever went about their exits from their clubs is fine by me... 2 out of 3 of those were handled well by the respective clubs.

Even in the Nick Stevens saga Port didn't stoop as low as the Crows have. Yes they played hard ball but act like petulant 10 year old girls no.
