Wright? Kelly? Doesn’t matter.



Now back to what you heard about that Paton wrecking, Battle poaching Roughead fella

I also would like to know about Roughhead, he's already done enough damage, don't tell me there's more. PM is fine if you don't want to besmirch his character publicly.

 

[jumperfan]

Err did you see why he left? Not a chance we'll get him.

Actually it reminds me of a story I heard about why Roughead left at the start of the year. Or rather, was booted out of the club.

I'd be interested in a PM too if possible.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Very interesting thanks for the pm.
No wonder he “left”.

 

[HeavenlySources]

so secretive?

 

[sauce_head]

Now I’m really curious!

 

[Miha]

Yoohoo pm me too

 

[wannabewinner]

everyone can Google the Collingwood CEO and what has been happening there….

Good question to wonder if Wright’s departure is linked?

He left because he was burnt out?

 

[wannabewinner]

He left because he was burnt out?

He was interim CEO and was replaced by Craig Kelly as the permanent replacement.

Soon after, he left for a holiday for the full 2024 season and resigned when he was due to come back.

Make of that what you will.

I make it that he took a sabbatical .. went overseas.... and decided not to come back

Sounds pretty normal

took time off mid season to go on "the block ".

Or he was persuaded by Kelly to take a "sabbatical" during which time Kelly effectively squeezed him out by reshaping the football department while he was away.

I don't think Kelly likes views that are different to his own.

Sucked in Collingwood

, Rozee off the back flank? Kenny's last game as coach perhaps? Jack Ginnivan's mouth, Jai Serong, Hokball (), the Wizard, Hawks with all the momentum. I feel a lot of people have already written off the Power.

Hawks to choke, Port Adelaide by 20.

 

[Plugger35]

Hoping for a Port win tonight, I'm getting sick of the Hokball hype with arrogant Hawks supporters coming out of the woodwork.

Dixon being a late out helps Port's chances, he was a liability last week against Geelong.

 

[SteeleSaints]

I cant stand watching Watson play, he is 4' 2" and ducks into tackles to draw free kicks. Hopefully someone takes his bloody head off at some stage to get him thinking about ducking into everything. Id knock him in to tomorrow....

 

[Linton Street Saint]

The umpires are already doing the Hawks dirty

 

[Sully111]

Hope Port smash them

There will be a day when someone gets knocked out doing it

 

[SteeleSaints]

Hawthorn are going to be the model defence of the future. Every one of there defenders are above average intercept markers. Add Battle & Barrass next year and they will be ridiculous.

 

[pebblesofsand]

Port Adelaide

Effort - A+

Skill - F

 

[sauce_head]

That was an awful quarter to watch.

 

[sauce_head]

When we tackle like that they call play on!

 

[Plugger35]

Hokball looking more like Carltankball, they are still goalless about 10 minutes into the 2nd quarter.

Port should be further in front but they have butchered some goal scoring chances.

Port not making the pay though.
