Preview R1: Changes for 2025

[1970crow]

Nah new Mod team will be just like the new Crows leadership team, 3 members, if there’s a 4th it will be 1970crow so he has immunity from harsh moderating

I would bring a lot of experience with infractions with me. That has to count for something.

I actually love the idea of Soligo on the wing.

I know he's very capable as an inside mid but it's just so squeezy in there. Impossible to fit everyone in. Someone needs to get squeezed out and impact from outside.

Keays has done it, becoming that high half forward.

The beauty of Soligo is that he can be multi-faceted. He can win a hard ball when needed but also work into space. Be an inside/outside player. Dual threat. Sometimes your outside receivers get lost in tough, scrappy games but I don't think he will.

That's also where wing is slowly going, as it has become a way to squeeze in an extra inside midfielder as much as it is going for that classical outside mid.

Though, I don't think Adelaide's build will allow that for Soglio. We kinda need him being our main clearance winner moving forward. However, it might be a direction we look in for someone like Curtin, Rankine/Rachele (seeing we'd need one to be a permanent forward) or Draper.

I think with these accusations of Port Mods it might be time for a cleanout and changing of the guard.

I nominate Elite Crow, Crow Envy and myself. I’m sure I could talk them round to reinstate their accounts.

First action would be to delete every post from Mods of other boards.

Who are these crow people you talk of

(7) Questions about moderating decisions will be deleted by the moderating team.
Contacting the moderating team via PM and query the issue directly. We're reasonable people, we'll listen to reason as long as you're not overly abusive. If you feel you are not getting satisfaction, the administrators are the people to talk to. Chief runs the site, but is more concerned with the macro decisions. The best administrators to speak to are grizzlym and Fred. Questions about moderating decisions will be deleted by the moderating team. Repeated incidents will receive infractions.

I didn't question a moderating decision in a thread. I questioned a post that included a statement in a thread that implied posters were hypocritical because ROB's Jim Stynes medal win was "universally celebrated". In the rules is there something about moderators opinions/statements about matters football not subject to discussion or validation? Jack is Back straight up accused moderators of being port supporters here only to troll and Vader has done the exact same thing, except he straight up accuses DABM as being a Pies supporter. I just asked for evidence of the universal celebration as I would any other that made such a claim.

I think Soligo is going to be one of those rare gems that will excel in all phases of the stoppage contest.

Why would you think the post was addressed to you?

I guess that's 1 way for you to force your opinions onto the plethora of posters here that have you on ignore

Why so Salty?

Why so Salty?

I don't why you'd presume I'm salty, when what I posted is just a fact

 

[Coopers]

It's literally in your name

 

[George Kramer]

Well the fact you even posted shows underlying bitterness, saltiness which will soon turn to anger given your previous form.

Now since you’ve posted something you claim as fact, name this plethora of posters who have me on ignore.

lol, so how about this plethora of names then, you made a statement of fact. Well surely you can back it up?

 

[Carmo]

I can remember a long time ago there was an ongoing argument between list refresh camp and full rebuild camp.

I would love to see the correlation between those that now whinge about 7 years and those that wanted the full rebuild.

If you would love it, do it, create a spreadsheet and fancy graphs

Why would you think the post was addressed to you?

It wouldn’t be relevant even if it wasn’t. But since you seem interested, the post was directed at any or all of the handful of posters with a negative view of the club’s post regarding Aboriginal job opportunities on Oz day. Now, as soon as the word “universal” was used when attempting to criticise those posters as hypocritical, it included me.

I know you go gown the rabbit hole with these matters and engage dishonestly. But you know exactly what was posted, why it was posted, what the intent was and why I was well within my rights to call out a complete falsehood.

I mean, you’ve already been laughably wrong with your attempt to justify the deletion. Did you even bother to check the discussion or did you just pull out a rule that you hoped was relevant?

 

[Kid A]

The quality of discourse on this thread is just shitful and embarrassing. Why would anyone participate when it's just users taking unnecessary potshots at each other? Grow up and clean up your ****ing act. Take the potshots to DM.

Welcome aboard, plenty of room for you too.

Otherwise known as check and mate, thanks for having a go.

Here's a hint: I've not been talking about your posts at any time.

You seem to have imagined yourself fitting into the rule I jokingly quoted at Fr0ggy about his post.

It's why I've taken off season OFF!

Thread supposedly about the team for the first game of 2025, last actual post on the thread title subject was pages ago.

I'll come back closer to R1
