Has the investigation finished? Did they say it was just BS that she made up or was there actually something to it?

Nothing to see here. Play on

 

[Thetrader15]

The scary thing is a few of the Port supporters are planning on doing that.
Which has the potential to end his career early as he may start to believe he can do what wants to.

Which will it be:
A) Tough childhood
B) Country boy coming to terms with the big time
C) Was just out for a quiet beer and people throwing themselves over him
D) Other (please offer your suggestions)

If you honestly think that a pissed up 20 year old may or may not have pinched a girl on the arse deserves to be the lead story on the 6 o clock news for 3 days straight, you really shouldn't leave the house.

Happens all the time regardless of whether is wrong or right. He's a footballer in this 2 team state, off course its going to make headlines.
You should be questioning what a F##k head SPP is for being in that state.

Elspeth, despite not being a sport or football journalist, consistently seems to be the reporter leading the charge in any negative Port Adelaide story. Her paid association with the Adelaide Football club does put into question her motives.

And? happens all the time. Did you read that Jonathan Brown referred to Lever as soft.

Hey I know I'm going to be howled down with faux outrage about "sexual assault" and Rucci/Kornes blah blah. There are even posters on here who think Stephen Rowe is pro Port these days. Stephen Rowe! Perspective is often lost when it comes to football teams.

Not even sure what point you are trying to make with this meaningless statement.

Now that you have shown your displeasure with what you've posted what do you think of some of the comments made on your Port board that have been posted here.
It really takes special kind of people to post some of that vile crap that appears on your board. Its utterly disgraceful.

Whats even more baffling is that your Mods allowed this to be posted and remain on your board.

Farking embarrassing.

Haha Saints locking in the youngsters early before they realise what a lost cause the Aints are.

I thought you said their list is better than people think? Or does that say more about what people think about the list?

Ummm..Daniel Norton?

I think it's kind of funny that they think reporters can just report whatever the hell they want on the news. SHE'S GONE ROGUE!

Pretty harrowing Open Mike with Merv Keane. Double family tragedy leading up to the grand final last year. I had no idea.

Just about my favourite season of footy ever was as a little tacker in 1988 when he was coach of Sturt. Halfway through the season we were nowhere like always but we flicked the switch and went on a giant killing run. Stormed into finals. Came back from 5 goals down in the last quarter at Prospect to win by 3 points. Jarmans were amazing. Ian Willmott took a hanger in the goal square to win the game. All my friends at school were North Adelaide fans and we were at the game together. Was off kicking the footy with them behind the terraces as we slid towards another loss but dad came and grabbed me. You better come and watch this...

Also beat Port by 1 point at Footy Park in front of 38,000 people. Minor round game - amazing. It's on YouTube somewhere.

Was too young to appreciate the politics at the time but he got the arse at the end of that season... and we then won 7 wooden spoons in a row.

Huge missed opportunity at Sturt and a massive f-up at that time. I was at a Presidents Lunch At Sturt a few years ago when Merv was a guest speaker. Seemed like a really interesting bloke and gave some good insights to the workings of Essendon at the time.

or easy money and pay rises because they know they can get more than their worth right now because StKilda are so desperate

I was at Unley Oval when Rick Davies kicked that bag of 15.

83/84 was Halbert so 85

 

[Shoota Welsh]

Agree totally. Never give up, never give in.

Does anyone think Sydney thought this way when they were 0-6 last year and lost to Carlton of all sides?

As a member I would be seriously pissed off if you gave up a season? That is for losers!

thankyouuuu. yes we were mediocre for years. but our management is better now. our drafting throughout those years was great tho which allowed us to be mediocre with poor management/coaching. literally within 2 years of fagan and roo etc taking over we went to a GF. this is what sydney do. they do not bottom out. obviously its complete BS they have all those academy kids and got the extra salary cap but still. same with hawthorn. although they only culled their list when everyone was literally like 33

Davies kicked 6 more goals than the Crows did on Friday night.

 

[crowsup]

After so many years watching cellar dwellers plunder the draft, if our season is shot before the end of the minor games because of injuries and despite the best efforts of all players and coaches involved, I think we can risk playing the game to maximise our draft chances this year, if everyone inside the club is on the same page (without any writing, of course) about what's going on. Maybe it might be the difference between drafting a Rankine and/or Rozee and not.

Are you crazy? The last time a team "DID NOT TANK", our club lost a coach for 6 months. Can you imagine what would happen to our club if we gave the Victorians fuel to blame us for Tanking?

Were not stupid to write it down that we are tanking? Correct?

I saw him kick 15 v Westies at Footy Park.

The vitriol on the Port board is amusing. Have they ever left mummy's house?

Why pollute your mind with such rubbish?

 

[PrideOf]

They’re truly pathetic with their constant victim mentality and cult like thinking.

The Port Adelaide of the 1950s and 1960s would be ashamed of the Port Adelaide of the 2010s.

How brave he is to be able to speak about it only 6 months later.
