Is everyone that rings up 5aa over 85?

I hope you're talking about their age, not their IQ.

Good to see Hawks imploding.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

didnt here lie about his address as a junior so he could play for centrals instead of port?

anyway here's one form 2003:

I didn’t know Stuart Dew played for collingwoond

 

[Shane_Mag]

I could see Clarkson as coach at Collingwood next season.

These two were never fans of the Magpies component of the Port Adelaide Football Club, but they did a nice job for the PAFC today in the coaching box.

Is Francou on the Crows staff or GWS staff? Either way good job.

Seems teams lose to us back up well the next week

Stop sooking Adam

Checks scores.
Great day of footy so far.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

I think Eddie is right- the Collingwood supporters are confused about Port’s Prison Bar guernsey, they forgot to go to the game today and support their team.

Bottom 6 all from Melbourne!

Crows could and should be 3-8 after 11 rounds - if it eventuates, does the heat increase on Nicks to keep his job? Personally, I think he should be allowed to keep doing what he's doing: it's providing endless joy for Port fans.

And Adelaide just above them.

Nicks is far more useful to Port in the position he now holds

It would be unfair on him because their list is diabolical. I can't imagine being a supporter and turning up to watch that spud farm.

That said, sacking coaches is in their DNA. They're no different to Carlton and St. Kilda in that regard. I think the pressure will start to mount on Nicks as the customers get restless.

 

[MrMeaner]

I missed the hilarity earlier but did anyone mention that pandas have been served with a Federal Court writ for passing off?

 

[Doctor Feel]

I think Nicks is fine. Their list is the issue.

 

[Visenfest]

Nicks is just there to get games in to the kids until:

1. They improve to a certain point which Nicks can't get them beyond, and they need a better coach to finish the work; or
2. The Crows realise the kids aren't good enough and they need another coach to start the rebuild process again.

Either way, he will have a short shelf life at the Crows.

Makes me think that only die hard Crows fans will turn up to the Showdown next week. The way their team is playing, many will be fearing the worst, and I hope they're right.

At least while he's there, he has no more hair to pull out .

I don't envy the decision that someone in his position has to make. Nail down a well paying job for a few years, but face the very real possibility that your future prospects working at that level will be irreparably tainted.

They're blaming the mid-field for the defeat saying they need bigger blokes with bigger bodies in there

Scorching Suns turn up the heat on misfiring Magpies

Gold Coast proves too strong for Collingwood at the MCG on Saturday afternoon

"Hugh Greenwood was monumental for the Suns with 26 disposals, 10 tackles and a goal"

Rowie jnr is struggling and starting to realise what AFL is really like and I couldn't be happier for the grandstanding showboating little runt

 

[DaTBird187]

Far out that was a shocking decision. Jack Steele caught dead to rights holding the ball, no call, then he gets a free kick for held.
