Good call...so if Eade and Cameron drop out of the race, is wallet the next cab off the rank ?
We are slowly building a better definition of "Slops"

Not interested in direct quotes from anyone apart from Thomas and Eade. Collingwood assistant coaches aren't permitted to present for senior coaching jobs while the season is still on, if I was Eade that's what I'd be telling Gary Pert whether it was true or not, and if I was Gary Pert that's what I'd be telling the media whether it was true or not.
After being widely reported for a while now, Eade has now publicly said he was never interested in the job.
Looks like Cameron might now get an opportunity at a coaching gig after being overlooked by the Bulldogs last year.
Slops worked ok for you guys, we may as well give it a shot
Interesting timing from Eade. Refused to give a definite no for months, and then just hours after the Port board exploded with people who know people saying that the job is Cameron's if he wants it, he finally gives a no.
Did we pick Cameron because Eade gave a no or did Eade gave a no because we picked Cameron? Nobody will ever know for sure but KT and Eade. Seems very odd that he waited until now to give a definite no if he was never interested though.
How would you know whats going on in the real world? sitting behind a keyboard 24/7 typing 35,062 posts of shite!Shouldn't have expected anything different. Crow flogs have an incredible record of pretending to know things that they couldn't possibly know. More often than not, they've been wrong.
I wasn't sure which of the above options was the truth before, but given how confidently you've spoken about it being one of them, I'm now pretty sure it was the other.

Option A: Believe that Rodney Eade decided he didn't want the job a while back despite his refusal to give a direct 'no' despite umpteen opportunities to do so until a few hours after the Internet went wild with people who would know saying we've picked Cameron, and despite the fact that a few days ago Thomas did say that Ratten had said no but didn't say that Eade had.
Option B: Believe that Rodney Eade only decided that he didn't want the job on the day that Cameron was seemingly decided, and that's why Port picked Cameron.
Option C: Believe that Port Adelaide picked Cameron and allowed Rodney Eade the courtesy of pulling out himself when he had in fact been interested in the role.
A is very far-fetched IMO. Neither of B or C would surprise me. If we settle on B you can still have your fun with 'Slops Cameron', so how about we go with that?
I trust the people who know people on the Port board, they've never steered me wrong before, unlike Caroline 'Travis Boak to Essendon is a done deal' Boak.
So why do you think Eade didn't give a no until yesterday, coincidentally a few hours after the intrawebz exploded with very strong Cameron rumours from people who would actually know?
Surely Eade giving a direct no would've been even more valuable while Collingwood's season was still going to quell speculation, wouldn't have it? He was asked many times about the Port coaching job, he had plenty of opportunities to give a no. He didn't until yesterday.
Gary Pert wanted to quell speculation. If Eade was fully committed to Collingwood at the time, wouldn't he have done the same?

Really? I still see the Rendell shit brought up..Kind of like that, yeah. And kind of like you all knew Boak was going.
One set of supporters learnt from it's mistakes, the other continues to make the same ones.
Tredders, Mark Stevens and Gerard Whateley are at least three media types that I know of who weren't as quick to believe everything they read as you are.
Eade said at Collingwood's Wednesday training session that his focus was completely on the Magpies. "My 100 per cent focus is with Collingwood. We've had a couple of big weeks now, and hopefully we've still got a couple of big weeks to go and my whole focus is totally with them."

No direct 'no' in there. You can add every appearance he made on the Fox Footy shows and was asked about the job and didn't give a no to the list too.
There's you claiming to know things that you couldn't possibly know again.

The difference for us is that Sando was our first choice
You've officially become D_One
Nah, you've become Sekaj.
So you admit you can't beat him.
All we know is that Rodney Eade officially pulled out of the Port Adelaide coaching race yesterday. You can make as many assumptions on top of that as you want, but they're just assumptions. 'Eade quit a week ago' is no more or less valid a theory than 'Eade quit when he found out Port had chosen Cameron'.
LOL
So you admit you're still deluded by his lies
But why did he wait until this week to say it? Is he trying to keep on Eddie's good side by saying he never really considered it? Why did Thomas say last week that Ratten had pulled out but not Eade? Why did he just happen to announce it hours after everyone said Cameron had the job? Plenty of questions to be asked, none of which you know the answer to. He might've pulled out last week and for some reason taken a week to publicly announce it even though he could've quelled all speculation by coming out and saying it ages ago (while for some reason Thomas announces that Ratten had pulled out but not him), he might've pulled out yesterday which led to Port appointing their second choice of Cameron, he might've pulled out once he heard Port wanted Cameron over him. The second of those scenarios seems the most likely to me, but for all we know it could be any of them. You have absolutely no way of knowing which one it is. You can strongly suspect, but you can't know.
You're so desperate to denigrate Port that in your narrow-mindedness you can't even accept the slight possibility that the worst possible scenario for Port might not be 100% correct.
I'm enjoying his dominance of you blokes ...
Are you posting from bizarro world again ?
Yes you're right, that's the one and only possible option and you know exactly what Rodney Eade was thinking at the time and there's no possible way you could be wrong because poort powa suk.
I'm done with this. If you're so desperate to act like it's 100% certain that Eade quit a week ago despite the significant amount of evidence pointing the other way, then you carry on. I just hope you realize that not everyone is as narrow-minded as you, and not everyone is so desperate to state things which they couldn't possibly know as fact. I would've thought the Boak experience would've taught some of you flogs a lesson, but clearly not.
Are you serious? Have you not even been reading this thread?
I'll read the rest of your post after you've done me the courtesy of reading mine. If you don't, there's no point at all continuing this.
