One of our 3 rucks and a couple of the many half backs will surely be trade bait next year and improve our draft options. Lycett, Bonner, Lienert, Garner most likely candidates?

I just hope if we're close we don't screw ourselves long term trading Hayes or Ladhams, whilst keeping Lycett.

I'm just getting used to Motlop's twirling finger celebration without getting angry. If Fantasia dyes his hair blonde again it might be too much for me and I'll have to watch games in straight jacket, gimp mask and ball in mouth.
 
There are 3 possibilities here:

1. He will be like Betts was to the Cows - 300+ goals over 6 years, some so spectacular we will name a corner of the ground after him (except we won’t call it the Orazio pocket or corner- it will become the “Orazio Deli” in deference to his Italian heritage).

2. He will be an injured dud who never gets on the park; or

3. Something in between.

Assuming he's fit its going to mean that Cam Sutcliffe will spend the whole season in the SANFL so that can only be a good thing for us.
 
Wonder if Richo said to take the photo right there? I want black and white, a Magpie and Alberton in the same background. ;)

Hope he kicks a bag against Essendon at Marvel in front of their moronic fan base.

My experience at marvel a couple of yrs ago moved Essendon into equal 2nd hated club with Collingwood. Bunch of ****ing arrogant pricks who have nothing to be arrogant about.
They booed paddy all night I don't mind supporters booing ex players but after what they did to him with drug saga left a bad taste in my mouth.

want to get something out of your footy career?

come to Alberton!!!
 
Man, he looks like he has atrophied big time.

I question whether he was really even training much with Essendon. I feel like he just took the year off to get himself refreshed.
 
lol remember when the SA media nominated the Crows on behalf of Fantasia? The old "adelaide and essendon are now working on a deal to bring fantasia to west lakes"

Yeah that never happened.

After like two articles about it, it quietly shifted back to port being his nomination, then the "he isn't answering the crows calls anymore" did lol.

I was there. Moronic is too kind.
 
I know a few people weren't happy about CD saying we had an obligation to get the deal done, but it is part of the ethos at Port where they are really getting player buy in to the club and each other. We look after each other here. That's something you can't buy and was a big part of the success of the Port teams of the 1980s and 90s under John Cahill.

But he explained, he was sure he would get the move he was after, following conversations with Port’s list manager Jason Cripps, General Manager – Football, Chris Davies and coach Ken Hinkley.

“From the get go, Port guaranteed we were going to get it done,” he said during his first press conference in Power colours.

“They said ‘mate, once you’ve committed here, we’ll get it done for you’ so that instilled me with the confidence and the trust that they could get it done but towards the end I was getting nervous, but we got it done.
