We were preparing to take action if something WAS going to happen, luckily the SANFL backed down.

Anyway, I'm off to prepare a rumor about something that didn't happen, but I'll have it covered anyway.

Not at all, just find it amusing a side would "boycott" or rumor to "boycott" a final.

So if a guy who played 10 SANFL games was permitted to play your club would have forfeited 12 months work. :roll: :lol: Now I am all for rumour and innuendo on this site, the forum is built on it but let's draw the line at cosmic fantasy :lol:

OK can I try one....Early last year Boon came over my house to buy some drills. If our Mrs didn't have us on a time line we were going to clear the State of Bikies and use the drills to shut their club rooms and then enter and win Australia's next top models. I get it now, this is fun ;)

It actually happened in 1902.

http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/4875685

I know there is no one alive now who was born then, but I clearly remember 40 years ago oldtimers speaking incredulously of the time when Port did forfeit a whole year because of the fact that they wouldn't play under Umpire Kneebone.

Must be upsetting for the few Magpie fans clinging onto the notion that their club still exists to know that they care more about this result than the players, coaches or club.

Go Doggies.

That's good fishing. Hey, fishing! You've got plenty of time to do that now.

Enjoy your off season. :D

Yeah someone mentions its a rumour and you guys get all uppity. Think skinned even to the suggestion of a principled stance. Central Districts Football Club is the only club which is publically standing up and saying this current situation is not acceptable. It would not surprise me in the least if heated discussions were taking place over any bending of the rules for Port Power. Boycott, yeah a bit over the top, but who could blame them.

Tell me again about the Magpies existing to win premierships ethos, it makes me giggle.

Who have Port picked to prioritise development over winning this week?

If your picking Butcher you cant say your trying to win with a straight face.
