Over the journey - Lade, a classic IMO Heart & souls player (as is Wilbur). Heir apparent =JB but he needs to take the next step b4 the likes of Gray or Westy et al...steal my heart. Past - Primus (what a tank) & Wangas (speaks for itself) Former - Carr (Tom Harley close, but didn't really...

Yes - what is it like?:D

I reckon the most important 6 to our season from here are the bottom six ala Blighty. Who are they? Lonie & 5 youngsters. Our best? - IMO Chad, JB, SB, Lade & Brogan... & Tredders &/OR Rodan

GFS=Good For Soccer

Some kinda relation to Maurice?

I've always hoped the plan for Dimma was for him to cut his teeth elsewhere then come back to our coaching team. It's interesting how non Port people like Dimma seem to be ready made Port people - Fos being the greatest example of this. I think it's too early for a top up player of Solomons...

Given some of the weird stuff on bigfooty I thought a "reintroduction" appropriate. After a long story of lost password, lost printout of email with new passport & some evil trojan or something in our PCs I haven't posted for ages, combined with my "I've got better thing to do than stuff...

More on topic, I'm not worried - these guys take awhile to develop & we have Primus on the Job. (EDIT: & the correlation suggested in the thread title has been refuted) I tend towards the thinking that most ruckmen are made, not born that way. Size + attitude + development = servicable...

Definately a gap in the age profile of our ruck prospects, will be interesting to see how Choco manages this going fwd. A key to our Premiership was the way we filled the gaps in our list through trades (Wakelin, Pickett, Hardwick). Can't see why we can't try it again. Same shopping list...

Given the perennial speculation over JC in the AFL do you think any of those others you mention have AFL prospects (I'm an outta towner).

I loved Francou's intensity. The guy was heading for a Brownlow & a Premiership 'til the Gods intervened. I also hope we can "bottle" him through some involvement with the club.

Reynolds, Stewart, Bunton (I'm being master of the obvious!)

The Club is being consistent WRT rebuilding & their reasoning is sound. Not neccesarily a reflection on Woey IMO ('tho I'm not a fan, I do respect how he made a career out of nothing). Interestingly the Club seems to be addressing the age profile of the team. It almost seems they took...

Good call. Alternatively Wanganeen - burnt out in season 2005 & ready to retire, refreshed & eager for season 2006. But there is something very Port like about Tredders. Even the fact that so many other supporters don't like him:p & he has much to do with the spirit of 2004 so we are not...

A dishonest, at best gratuitous response. I think Frankston Rover & Blues Man have covered the detail. I sincerely encourage you to hang around Redlegs#5, try to avoid the dark side of Big Footy & become one of the many good contributers here (& I only consider myself an apprentice BTW)...

No you are not - but keep trying. & don't worry about us - we'll take care of our own, & if that doesn't work we can always ask the AFL to chip in a bit.:cool:

Job done - it is a generic term. Furthermore, what do these sports call the "object used for scoring"? WRT to AFL - football, footy, ball (the later within the context of the game). When I say "I want a new football for xmas" there is no confusion as to what I mean amongst my...

& a clear win to Hall IMO - loved when Gehrig dropped his gaze, game & set match to Hall

Barry Hall Cam Mooney Leigh Matthews

I think Matty's payout is a one off because they have brought it fwd from next year.

I wouldn't P*** on any of them if they were on fire. Complete waste of space. Boring. They prove the saying: "If you argue with fools ...etc". Unfortunately they keep the numbers up for the board so they will be tolerated. Thank heavens for the "Ignore" function - just need to extend...

You flatter yourself, you assume & you bore. & my Clubs History is better than your clubs history.........is too! Nah, nah na, nah nah :D

I actually think Collingwood has slipped in the hate/rivalry stakes. It really became obvious as long ago as 1990 when large numbers of non Essendon/Collingwood supporters wanted the pies to win the flag, that Collingwood weren't as hated as in the past. Now I sympathise with their...

Now who do you mean... ;) I'm starting to think Crows have the football supporters equivalent of penis envy - History Envy!!! :D

Better be careful 'cos we know what happens when you ASSUME ;)

"I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right tot say it" - Back at you snob.

Peter Daicos - & he starred with 28 touches (interestingly his first kick went out on the full, something I had forgotten!).

The sky is falling?

Makes sense...too much sense for the AFL. Do the AFLPA or Coaches Association have a name for their MVP (the awards that matters more than what a bunch of Umpires think IMO)? I hope they hear of this idea & pick it up & the Brownlow dies the death it deserves. Great read BTW TH, good...

He's an ex Aint himself......definately cultural!
