A bit easier when they're 67 years old and don't work on Monday.

Watched the Port/GWS game yesterday, when will they realise Dixon is just a role player? nothing more, he will never be the "man" like many power forwards in the league. Same when he goes into the ruck.

Hinkley on SEN this morning "after 1.4 time we matched them on the scoreboard so we take a bit out of that" :lol: Seriously.

The way the commentators talk about him you'd think he was Johnathon Brown out there. His stats don't even rival his predecessor Schultz.

To busy sooking it when not paid a free kick. As some commentators say, just play and leave the sooking to the supporters.

Agree but lacks focus. Crashing packs and yelling at people is much more fun than getting an effective disposal.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

How would Port have liked Aaron Young back in the side. Was it a mistake to let him go and instead chase some high paid recruits + Thomas?

Stats are crap. Mcglynn and Garlett had near identical stats to Cyril.

Have definitely lost some depth in bringing in the new recruits. Young especially would of been handy in the side at this stage instead of S.Gray or Thomas

Port are the 13th highest scoring team in the league

Only Freo w/bulldogs Carlton saints and suns have scored less.


C’mon mate you know Sunday is a bad time slot for Port fans ;)



Im sure we will see some lame excuse. It's what PAFC does well.


Why do we need an excuse? 34,693. Fourth best crowd of the weekend, but it ain't no 1500 at Elizabeth. No reserves in the SANFL you might break 1800 @ My Money



$ 18 million salary cap compared to $400k. Is your crowd 45 times larger ??

Dogs use to get 3000 a home game pre afl assholes playing in our Comp. Now we get 2000. 33% drop off for $50k a year.

Thanks Olsen Thomas Trigg Davies Tripodi etc....

Genuine question for Port fans. What would they consider to be a successful season this year.

I'm presume it would be more than just making finals. Would it be winning 1 final? Making a prelim? Premiership or bust?
