the appointment of Matthew Primus

Who knows?

Waste of time and money JOKE:thumbsdown:

Longdonkey why post if you don't know what is going on

LOL

Disagree Defence looks awful without Surjan, he seems to organise the backs

How the hell is Sal not out there Surj should be playing Rodan should be only playing as the sub WAY TO MANY PASSENGERS, TO MANY OVER RATED PLAYERS

I reckon his glute injury has been misdiagnosed

ROHDE must go too he is a huge problem

BOAK

Surjan = having to go back to the SANFL what are they thinking:(

5 - broaddy 4 - thomas 3 - hartlett 2 - brad ebert 1 - cornes 1 - surj (betts kicked 5 last week) Thanks bernie. Brain fade

People can squabble all they like about Brent Renouf and Brad Ebert forgetting there's one question that people need to ask themselves regarding these acquisitions. Do they improve the Port Adelaide Football Club team? In the short term yes in the long term that is yet to be determined. The...

Especially when Darling, Lycett, Karnezis and Watson were all available with our first pick in the 2010 draft. Peculiar list development I agree.

I don't agree with you. If Pettigrew occupies a position on the Port Adelaide list between say 37-40, then it's not an issue given there is 10-15 players ahead of him that the coaching staff would be looking to develop. Naturally, they are given preference in team selection. The only way Port...

Don't misrepresent this as I agree with Pettigrew having a contract offer, but he's a contingency player that will back up our tall stocks if any of them were to go down injured. Port Adelaide only has three tall defenders of note in Carlile, Chaplin and Trengove. Paul Stewart's injury and...

Port Adelaide's start up position and concessions put it in a position of power when the club first entered the AFL. Post 2004 Premiership two things happened 1. Mark Williams publicly alienated our biggest benefactor and 2. the appointment of Peter Rohde to a high ranking position within the...

Andrew Demetriou head hunted and installed Keith Thomas not the SANFL. Given Scott Watters contacted Port Adelaide and threw his hat into the ring unaided (a matter of fact that he's looking to improve his personal skills as a coach given he's helped coordinate a powerful and successful club...

So I can better understand where you're coming from is this your opinion Jonts? You're willing to part with assuming he returns to full fitness one of the best small defenders in the AFL and a 2nd round draft pick for a famous Port Adelaide name with many short comings in his game, most...

Congratulations to Travis and Jackson however that feels like a doctored result to reward and keep the young and promising Victorians happy in South Australia.

Without the grandiose attachment Milde29, I can confirm that a considerable amount of the assertions you have made are supportable. I am more than pleased Mark Haysman will not be involved in the running of the Port Adelaide Football Club. I'm sure at some point the internal damage and carnage...

I am rather embarrassed by the professional witch hunt and knee jerk reactionary vitriol directed at Keith Thomas in this thread. By all means argue about the process but he's a well credentialed businessman with key football contacts and political clout in South Australia. He's got a very good...

For posterity's sake Peter Rohde has managed to offend every senior player of note at Port Adelaide and during contract negotiations, put himself on the panel that reviewed the football operations at Port Adelaide (giving himself a glowing endorsement and the suggestion, [if rumour is to be...

Whilst I'm an advocate for bringing Spurr on board (we did bring in Phillips and Spurr is a considerably better player in my opinion) the rest of your comment lacks factual merit. Some people are forgetting how good a player's best is even more judging 3 players who all had limited or no...

There's far to much negativity around these boards at the moment so I'll just have to say I disagree with you from my observations at both AAMI, in the SANFL and from television broadcast. He's one of the few players who despite whatever limitations you believe he has appears to understand...

I'm not sure you understand the premise of a zone that well Dustholian. A positional problem or imbalance further up the ground becomes magnified for defenders and vice-versa. For instance, if a defender leaves his allocated zone to run and carry, it's assumed (it should be coached) the zone...

Re: Primus - is the gloss wearing off already I agree with most of what you've forwarded TonyBecht. Most astute Port Adelaide followers suggested these measures at the end of season 2010. As I've made mention before, I've been a passive contributor to the board critiquing the comments of...

Re: Primus - is the gloss wearing off already As Primus has repeatedly stated publicly Natman the buck stops with him. That means he's in charge. Primus has had over a season at the helm of Port Adelaide now across both caretaker and head coach platforms. We can make some conclusions about his...

It's a shame about Hartlett being out injured. On the other side of that this is the first time in months it looks like Port Adelaide has selected a side in the attempt to win a match. Very pleased to see Jonas make his AFL debut. Along with Surj, he would be our best performed SANFL player of...

Re: Port v Collingwood Gameday Thread You've addressed a myriad of reasons as to why Matthew Primus needs a mentor and better assistant coaches Lurk3r. I think you'll realize that after some reflection on your post. You make some prudent points, which is encouraging to read for a change.
