Interesting that Mark Fisher has stepped down from being port's Chief doctor.

Josh money resigns as a fraud ?

Ch 7 really should be held to account for this.

Toilet paper, single ply 80 grit

Josh Money is reporting that Sid Drapers camp has ordered a pallet of Crow logo toilet paper.

[BRL121]

Now that we've secured Cumming can anyone explain to me where he fits in our team and what he's good at?

7 games this year, basically no highlights videos, can't even find any draft videos from back in 2016, dropped mark late in their last attacking play this year. What's the thinking?

Go away.

 

[fossilllCrow]

What’s relief today has been, with the aggressive planning the club has mentioned imagine we have somone up our sleeves

I want Draper more now he’s come out and cleared that up.

 

[Shifty Crow]

All I care about the logo is that we see it again on the MCG on GF day

More likely for a free ticket to the Grand Final with everything layed on...

Part of his redundancy package?

Part of his redundancy package?

Wonder if another club might pick him up? I don’t mind him

[Kane McGoodwin]

I reckon they'd done it long before we heard about it. Their choice of announcement was bewildering. Was it bedwetting? possibly.

There is no positive way you can look at the club jumping the shark to reappoint Nicks.

Remember this says everything about how poor our key decision makers are at the club... which is the biggest reason why our club continues to not contend.

Another player that should been playing brodies position the past 2 years.

 

[Danger in Texas]

I know they have ample HB replacements for Houston, but it's surely gotta hurt if neither of Perryman or Cumming get there

 

[1990crow]

I know they have ample HB replacements for Houston, but it's surely gotta hurt if neither of Perryman or Cumming get there

If Houston leaves and they don't get a replacement, then yeah.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Bed wetters are the supporters who find a negative view of anything that happens, and get upset about things that haven't even happened yet.

Happy clappers are those who call in defending the boys, no matter how they've played or what they've done.

The club is a mix of mostly competent people trying to improve, and sometimes taking as many steps back as they do forward.

BigFooty is mostly a group of well informed posters and a place you can normally get accurate info, so it's pretty valuable - sometimes it just gets VERY emotional ...

I would strongly disagree that the club contains mostly competent people in the key roles.

Imo, we have a very weak board & senior management compared to successful clubs.

 

[Danger in Texas]

If Houston leaves and they don't get a replacement, then yeah.

Think they'll have to let Houston go to get Luko

 

[fuic08]

Maybe Port will throw a lifeline to Hamill

 

[Cromulant]

Maybe Port will throw a lifeline to Hamill

He's not Dan Houston, but he could fill a role.

Also, he'd be as close to a concussion related end as Todd Marshall sadly

 

[Runnin Blue]

I tried to warn people not to bite. Not to jump in the flames of the stoked fire.

How much difference 24 hours make.

 

[Shifty Crow]

If Houston leaves and they don't get a replacement, then yeah.

Houston - out
Solo - out
Lord - being chased by two vic clubs
Dixon - Retired
McKenzie - Retired
Marshall - concussion shakey ground
Boak - will struggle with another year

Both Perryman and Ted Richard’s likely to reject port.

There depth wasn’t great this year, next year it looks worse
