Port vs Carlton Team named 5 in's, 2 out

[Janus]

We are supporters. And as supporters, we want to see what is best for our team. This week's shocking selections are anything but.

Hey, P.Burgoyne and Salopek in is GREAT for my dream team! I've been carrying those two clowns for the last few weeks.

But as for structure - yeah, nah.

I think there will be a big drop off in members next year, it's not about the losing it's the direction the club is going.
The only way we can have a voice that will make a real difference is not to renew our Memberships next year, you may say that's harsh but it's the only way this club will get the message that we won't put up with 2 more years of this rubbish.

If you don't renew your memberships next year we may not have a Club to support the following one?
No matter what Andrew Demetriou says

 

[Peck]

salter obviously out for ebert.. not really as stupid as some are saying, it would either be him or westhoff. and personally i prefer westhoff.

although, i would much prefer salter to ebert..

try guessing who will be on the bench though.. wow

my bet is peter, sal, ebert, and stewart

I'm just trying to find an answer to all this, there's no way ill be putting my hand in my pocket for 2 more years of this crap, if we get belted every week i can handle that but this charade of selections each week is nonsense.
I would think Big Footy Port board would be a fair sample of how Members and supporters are feeling right now,people are fed up with this circus
When you sign up your supporting not only the club but also the Board and coaching staff because it's your money that is going towards there salary

Everyone on the board was 100% behind the selections of the past two weeks. There were no excuses. We played three tall forwards, Chad down back, no P.Burgoyne, Carr and Ebert who are usually blamed for our woes and we got smashed. I think we can safely say our problems aren't just at the selection table.

I'm against Salter being dropped as anyone. It's a shit selection. But come on, when someone asks you next year why you didn't sign up as a member, will you really be happy saying 'Because Nick Salter was dropped for the Round 20 game against Carlton'.

Choco is right, we are an average team.
We have above average players but the way they play makes us very average to below average. Sometimes we are miles below average.

Now if only Choco was to realise what his contribution to us being below average is.

 

[drcollossimo]

disgraceful that some of you people call yourself supporters

Really? Seriously if you want to mix with fans/members who blindly go along with the Coach and Club because the Coach and Club say it go support the Crows..

Dropping Nick Salter is disgraceful at the least, I mean we've only been screaming out for a natural successor to the Monolith, Salter is all that is in the cupboard so lets drop him for Brett 'Lollipop guild' Ebert who didn't exactly hit anyone’s 'Eruption button' with his two appearances for the Magpies..... Don't get me started on Burgoyne...

 

[Spadge]

So is Westhoff the holder of the new "Gold Card™"

Seriously he was non existent last week....

 

[i_love_the_hoff]

ha.
yeah right

Yep they've dropped the wrong forward ..the novelty of the Hoff is fast running out with me unfortunately

This is a long way past just being about Nick Salter, The Board should be shown the door for reappointing Williams for 2 more years, what are we to do? pay our money like good little Muppet's ? if this was a Business the shareholders would have thrown out these clowns long ago,nobody pumps money into bad stock unless they are total fools!

Head/sand?

 

[albyplus]

Nick (Salter) is on a one year contract up to the end of this season and is now ready to go to the Gold Coast after this week's omission.
I reckon that is disappoiniting for all concerned. What is going on? I just don't get it!

Do you know Nick personally?

 

[King_Tredrea]

Head/sand?

i'm talking specifically about the people still calling for Chocolate's head when he has just been appointed for 2 more years. Get the **** over it and support the coach/club. he knows more about this list of players than anyone else here. we aren't always gonna agree come selection night but comments like '**** you choco' etc. are just pathetic

The cows can still miss the finals. That's all you need to bother about.

 

[simba_]

Tiprat is going to the Lifeguards before Salter!

 

[Steve Dore]

According to Rucci in this am's 'Tiser Nick Salter is a defender and Paul Stewart is a forward.

 

[brogan2motlop]

Does anyone wonder what it would be like having Westoff dropped and Tredders and Salter in our forward line instead?

 

[PAUR]

+1 /\ /\

I'd like to see that but it ain't going to happen under Choco.

 

[brogan2motlop]

I dont know I aint blaming Westoff, but he really does seem to damage Tredder's game when he came back in the side...

Tredders was on fire when Westoff was out...

Not saying its Westhoff's fault just maybe he doesnt fit into the forward structure properly?

 

[Spadge]

ha.
yeah right

rose coloured glasses aside, Hoff has been very average and for him to totally avoid the axe reeks of gold pass syndrome when guys like Salter get dropped.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Does anyone wonder what it would be like having Westoff dropped and Tredders and Salter in our forward line instead?

I can tell you what it would be like. Imagine Tredders and Salter up on the wings, instead of Tredrea and Westhoff, while Robbie Gray is the sole marking target up forward (maybe try to imagine Ebert and Motlop there too, but no Salter).

Or imagine Salter loose in defence while his former direct opponent in defence charges unmolested 90m upfield kicking and setting up goals because a) he has no opponent, b) everyone else is protecting a patch of grass, c) the guy loose in defence has no real idea of what he's meant to be doing back there.

Or maybe even imagine Salter in ruck, Tredrea on the wing and Gray in the middle.

Look at football through the looking glass that is our forward line. Iron Maiden have a song titled Can I Play With Madness, well yes, apparently you can...
