Epstein?

Dressing up as a sex trafficker would hardly warrant a ban. Hitler maybe...

Diddy?

Maybe if it was blackface.
People literally dress up as bad people all the time, Halloween is full of serial killer costumes... Gonna have to hear some pretty heinous sh*t for there to be justification for suspensions

Dress up as Staalin though and nobody bats an eyelid

Diddy and Biebs

 

[GameofSloanes]

To improve our 22, I would take Bergman, Aliir, Rozee, rioli, georgiades, Sweet, Butters and Horne (maybe Farrell). Less than 50% of a team.

They've got a very good top end in Butters, Rozee, Horne and Bergman. 4 elite players. Unfortunately for them if falls away pretty quickly.

Houston was also elite. Ooops....

 

[WetCrow1991]

Diddy?

Drake.

Port board is in total meltdown over this deal. I should post over there.... don't worry Port cousins at least you've still got Hinkley. I'd be banned for a month though so I won't.

just do it

Power completely rogered:

• less than hoped for Houston with pick 13 (will become 15-17) and then speccy picks
• more than they wanted to give up for Luko (first rounder)
• getting RAT is the funniest thing
• taking 1.6m of committed salary
• and to top it off they can’t get rid of Soldo

This is the worst trading day for a decade for Power if this materialises. Losing on EVERY front

Get home and am treated to one of the greatest trade dumps of all time. Just too good.

First Power poster I read said:

Sewer de Lance​

Premiership Player​

• Today at 5:45 PM
• 
  
• #4,341

• 119 GF loss
• Annihilated at home by the Hawks in Russell Ebert tribute game
• Rolled over in a pathetic display against the Dogs in a home PF
• Tarred & feathered by Geelong in this years QF
• Single handedly launched Collingwood into Premiership contention while strengthening our bottom 6 chances with one of the worse trades of the modern era.

Seriously, **** this loser club & the shit stains who have run it into the ground.

 

[119others]

Pt Adelaide finishes bottom in the SANFL .....have already traded in list cloggers in 2023 .....now they're adding more cloggers onto a list lacking quality depth

Chances of making the 8 next year is tough .....have any abnormal injury run, and PORT have no coverage

You don't trade out an AA in Houston, if you believe you're in the premiership window ......they're a mess !!

View attachment 2142822

Can’t wait to hear and see Kanes reaction. This is truly embarrassing for Power. We would burn down HQ if we came up with this shit

 

[Crowbling]

I actually don’t mind now watching Houston’s goal after the siren against Essendon.

Great kick. Well done to him.

 

[119others]

For once justin reid doing shit all feels better this time around lol.

Your opinions are a complete joke and utter waste of time

 

[Alwaysacrow]

This shocking Power trade will be nothing compared to when Butters asks for a trade out of that s**t show next year....lol.

 

[Brett Cummings]

Your opinions are a complete joke and utter waste of time

Happy clap clap.

Port are in the rare position of having a bunch of useless depth AND a bunch of guys that have never played AFL. Usually you get one or the other and somehow Port have managed both

Useless depth: Atkins, Narkle, Evans, McEntee, Soldo, Lord, Finlayson, Clurey, Ratugolea?, Richards?

Guys that haven't played: Charleson, Anastasoploulos, Scully, Jackson, Marshall, Walsh, Lorenz (2 games)

That's a whopping 17 players, of which maybe one or two if they are lucky will develop into best 22 AFL quality players

Well, a Collingwood fan got greeted with this after criticising Port fans for attacking Atkins.

"Chow down on a syphilitic chode you sanctimonious cumfunnel."

Who the hell are any of those second players? Charleson, Scully, Walsh? You're making them up.

I'm gobsmacked that Clurey is still on their list. One game in the last two seasons.

Tell them you know how it feels, we’ve got Nicks and Hamish

Surely he will be delisted. I saw him at the Parade and the poor bugger clearly didn’t want to be there as the Mighty legs flogged them

I think Richards is a good get for them, and Evans and Narkle (and maybe Scully) will be delisted, but on the flip side they’ll be adding even more ‘haven’t played’ guys to their list

Definitely an iffy spot to be in

Seriously. After 12 years the list is Hinkley’s, so they’re right to want him out. But he’s maximising what he has, they’re dreaming if they think someone is gonna come in and do better with their current list.
