Kid Crows beat near full strength Poort Power side

[xamol]

Just for laffs, we should have a poll. Who is better, Dangerfield or Ebert.

 

[Team DJ]

Sam Jacobs board. Scott Thompson board.

The difference is that your mate is saying your reject is better then Patty D.

Jacobs is comfortably the best ruck in the state, and nearly the best in the league.
Thompson has been SAs premier midfielder for a number of years, and a top AFL mid for just as many as well.

 

[Sekaj]

I don't know which Crow player 'ignored member' is talking about, but wow, 5 tackles! That player must be nearly as good as Matt Thomas!

Or Domenic Cassisi, AFL's best ever captain because he had plenty of tackles.

Speaking of tackles, he also averaged 4.4 more tackles than VB, which is more than double. Nice work from your fearless leader to average only 3.4 tackles a game

One minute he rates tackles, nek minnit, not so much ...

So you're saying that other clubs' 'unwanted players' can turn out nicely, just like Ebert has? Good. 4 of the best footballers in this state right now came from other clubs.

 

[Gray Day]

Just like you didnt develop Primus, Fitzroy did.

Lade and Brogan?

 

[SwampRat]

It's shit throwing like this that made me leave SA.

That and the warrants.

Your history of developing young Mids says differently about Eberts Prospects.....

 

[Team DJ]

Lade and Brogan?

If Carlton developed Jacobs as youre saying we developed Griffen and Maric

 

[Mattrox]

Jacobs was a good player at Carlton, you 'developed' Griffin and Maric into spuds.

Maric wasn't a spud. He was a developing player and got too good to be a backup. ....

I know your not thick, so why pretend?

 

[Team DJ]

Jacobs was a good player at Carlton, you 'developed' Griffin and Maric into spuds.

Maric was a good player at the Crows as well. Why does it work for one and not the other?

 

[Geoffa32]

Because Maric wasn't a good player at the Crows. If he was, you would've never thrown so much money at Jacobs in the first place.

Nope Jacobs was just better.

Maric was ok as a Ruckman with us, on par with anything Port have, but Jacobs is elite. Hence after the Power (Choco) rejected Jacobs because you have no forsight and had Brogan, we snapped him up quicksmart.

 

[Geoffa32]

OK, so you guys have spent the last couple of years telling us that all our rucks are spuds and we have the worst ruck division in the competition, and now you tell us that Maric was a decent player because he was 'on par with anything Port have?'

Yes, Maric is on par with Redden, whom I do rate now it looks as if he is finally becoming fitter. Perhaps Maric is slightly ahead, but Redden is a year or two from prime.

Note I used the term have, not had. Not the first time you have had an issue with tense.

The rest of Lobbe, Renouf, Westhoff and Trengove are pretty much rubbish as Ruckman.

 

[Geoffa32]

Renouf is a good ruckman, he's just shit at every other facet of football.

No good for the modern game.

Hawthorn did well unloading him, knowing about his knee and that his effective AFL career is over.

Sauce slops

 

[Mattrox]

Sauce slops

Worst assumption posted in the Bay today.

Poor PAPs not to even comprehend that "slops" comments about players/coach that are amongst the highest on list in terms of ability and performance make them look like the most un-knowledgeable supporter base on the bay. With a case of sour grapes too.

 

[Team DJ]

Because Maric wasn't a good player at the Crows. If he was, you would've never thrown so much money at Jacobs in the first place.

Clubs cant look to improve themselves?
Now i know why Port have been stuck down the bottom using that philosophy.

Jacobs was a 4th stringer at the Blues, after one season we developed him into an elite ruck.

How is your Hawthorn 1st stringer Renouf going?

Neither of those statements are correct, so I won't answer your post

 

[Team DJ]

Neither of those statements are correct, so I won't answer your post

Jacobs was third at best at Carlton.
Renouf was at worst Hawthorns second

 

[John Hart Jnr]

Prepared to stand corrected but Thompson alone almost got more votes than you whole team !

You're embarrassing yourself over this.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/mor...o-afl-prospectus/story-e6frf9jf-1226567303294

Football's annual statistical bible, compiled by Champion Data, rates the Power as having the second-worst list in the competition, ahead of only GWS.
Its defence is rated a lowly 18th and forwardline 17th in the league, and Port is one of only two clubs without a player considered "elite" - in the top 10 per cent according to their position on the ground.​

​

Thompson hey???

Is that blurry brown stuff in your crystal ball the same shit that is between your ears?

You're embarrassing yourself over this.

 

[Asgardian]

You'd take Sam Shaw and Petrenko ahead of Carlile and Wingard? Dear God.

I would take Shaw first out of those 4. Petrenko & Wingard would battle out my next pick but Carlile would be 4th by a long long way.

Wow, what a superior judge of young talent ...

 

[xamol]

Terrible bump.

Some players improve faster then others.

This time next year, Wines will be tieing Crouch's shoelaces

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Wow, what a superior judge of young talent ...

One good year and you think your club is full of superstars lol.

Congratulations on playing in the finals for the first time in 6 years! Unfortunately for you, 1 semi final appearance does not cancel out 1 grand final humiliation followed by 5 consecutive years of being unbelievably uncompetitive & finishing 10th or worse.

But good on you for finally making the finals. Now let's see if you can do it again! You're not going to have it as easy this year though. Elimination final at best IMO.

 

[Asgardian]

Terrible bump.

Who would you prefer?

Petrenko or Wingard?

This time next year, Wines will be tieing Crouch's shoelaces

Does he have a learning impediment along with being a squib?

Surely Captain Dud can teach him how to tie his shoelaces, after all, what else could Captain Dud be good for?

[Drakescoffeecake]

After 2013? Wingard. Whether he's a one year wonder yet remains to be seen.

When the prediction was made, Petrenko was in front of Wingard. That is totally different now.

Crouch will spank Wines next year!

Wager?
