Now you just made that up didn't you, there's no way that could be true.

I was most impressed with his tackling, he made a couple really stick last night, which is great to see in any young player

It's pretty surprising that we don't already have one. But if we do get one I hop that it isn't the likes of Dunstall or Brian Taylor, they've done a bit of work for a few of the Vic teams and it seems to have done them no good, Jarryd Roughhead stands out to me as a guy whose been so...

Forget the "laziness", to me the problem wasn't the amount of ground he was covering in defence. The problem was his commitment to chase and tackle and make tackles stick. If you re-watch the fist 4 games of the season you'll see that Walker's tackling resembles that of a zombie, he just bumps...

OK all you managed to do here is highlight the fact that they are playing completely different roles. A guy like two-time Brownlow Medalist Adam Goodes wouldn't average any where near as many disposals or tackles as someone like Kane Cornes, but it doesn't mean that Cornes is the better...

The topic of next AFC captain is certainly an interesting one. For mine I don't think Dangerfield should really be considered, this is basically because I think that it will hinder his development as a player more than anything, and the fact that there are other good options in the team...

I never used to mind him but he's annoyed me this year. Normally I just ignore the commentators because I don't really like most of them but his crap about the Edwards - Mcleod saga was infuriating. And in the game against St. Kilda where every time Nick Dal Santo touched the ball or did...

You'd be exactly right I imagine. Also nowadays players don't focus so much on lifting weights to get big and strong, I can remember when Patty Dangerfield was drafted and was spending his first season in Vic the Crows fitness staff made him limit the amount of time he was spending in the gym as...

From Adelaide: Michael Doughty David Mackay Andrew McLeod Simon Goodwin Tyson Edwards Trent Hentschel Brett Burton Richard Douglas Scott Thompson Patrick Dangerfield Ben Rutten Nathan Bock (apparently enjoys surfing) Chris Knights I bolded the guys that I think we can't afford to lose. And...

Has Salopek from Port re-signed yet. One of the guys from AFL teams on fox said that he knows that Salopek had purchased a house on the GC and made the conclusion that he has or is about to sign. Not that you could beleive anything from BT and his possy of ass clowns.

Without a doubt he deserves a pass tonight. I honestly believe that we should persevere with him on the list over the next couple years so long as he keeps improving, because while he still looked pretty timid around the ground he will be (hopefully) even better with another preseason under his...

Good post. I think he will be serviceable player in the future. When he first got in the team his decision making and awareness was quite good and he has a really nice handball, which is pretty uncommon nowadays. I think he could do with some time in the SANFL though

This is absolute crap. Would the armchair coaches with absolutely no knowledge of modern football tactics please stop attacking the zone / gameplan. If you've ever seen St. Kilda play they use a 18 man zone, and they flood back more than any team in the comp, against Port at several defensive...

Yeah try watching an Adelaide game when BT and the gang from Foxsports call it. Van Berlo, Moran, Mackay, Vince and just about any other blonde on the team are apparently the one player. In the Fremantly game this year BT called Mackay, passes to ...Mackay. It's truly horrendous stuff and its...

Seems quite the tool, between him and his management I can't figure out who thought that this personal website would do any good for his image or reputation. re not preparing for the AFL. The european rugby season finishes within the next couple of weeks, his team Biaritz just won the...

Yeah not to happy with the fact that Walker has been left out because I'm a fan and McKernan hasn't made the emergency list over Griffin. It will be good to see Jaensch though, as I'm yet to see him play and from all reports he's a talented lad. I think that this week we've picked the team...

I wouldn't have thought so, isn't Symes named in the leadership group (I might be wrong), but I wouldn't think he would have a gauranteed spot in the team every week (although he would be great to have in now).

I like Hamish Hartlett, he's so classy, sure to be one of the best players in the league in a few years. Jobe Watson. And I love Adam Cooney (yeah I know he is a big name).

I think we should start playing with two ruckmen again. I seem to remember us playing with two rucks for a lot of our best footy last year. I was also very happy with how we we're playing when we had Maric and Moran as the ruck duo. The only problem with this is that the only viable rucks we...

I swear the people who post on this site don't actually pay attention to the games. In the third quarter Maric was played up forward for extended period to give some contest in the forward, because Tippett sure as hell wasn't giving anything at all. Scott Thompson was also moved forward but...

Re: Who coaches next? Why is everyone always banging on about no god damn plan B, I'm certainly not saying that I think Craig is doing a good job atm, but that's why he threw Walker into midfield, to use his long kick and big body to win the ball and get it going long and direct. It didn't...

"The Window" = a load of c***, Craigy has said this already in interviews before the season started. And I'm fairly sure that Macca, Goodwin, Edwards and Burton are the only players over thirty and overall the list is actually still pretty young. And importantly all the starters along the...

This is the correct technique in league, and by high its meant to be around the shoulders not head high. This technique is now being used in union aswell because of the new laws at the breakdown.

To bad we already de-listed Luke "The Mad Dog" Jericho :D

We'd have to consider ourselves very lucky to finish in the 8 judging by how we've gone after three rounds, and still waiting a few weeks before we get something that resembles a full strength 22. Hopefully when we get some more players back and a bit of match fitness we can go on a decent win...

No. Our great game has countless tough guys to appreciate, Judd, Kirk, Jude Bolton, Luke Hodge, etc. I think someone has a guy crush.

Nah they don't, Brisbane Broncos have a pretty good following, Gold Coast have a decent following (I dont think it would be as good as many if any of the AFL clubs though (including Port)). And the FNQ Cowboys have a very, very small following, my guess is worse than Port, despite being a one...

I think you'd be suprised. I'm a uni student and there are heaps and heaps of students with tatts. And that's only based on the ones that you can see (ie. arms or legs where you can easily see them), I'd imagine there's even more students who have tatts and you just can't see them.

How old would you have been though at the time. Levi can't be blamed for the drinking incident, he's only 19 and probaby just trying to fit in with his new team mates. Where's the leadership from the older players to let that happen.

Being a member of the leadership group is really just a title. Some players like Doughty have been seen to increase their commitment and onfield performance but having the oldies in the leadership group won't hinder the development of the younger guys leadership skills. And I think we've already...
