2nds The Official Port Board Thread for the Discussion of the Port Power Seconds Team

[Lockhart Road]

Portia, do you reckon that mob are bright enough to pull it on their initiative or quiet words were spoken from the pissant town burghers?

Serious ?

More than 'Like' can express.
With age comes experience. The very experienced, like Rexie and moi aussi, roughly meaning me too, have the indelible bruises on our arse to prove it.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Meanwhile at the ABC 'Port and Norwood? Did they play last week?'

 

[Lockhart Road]

too tired to care

Portia dear, if you're too tired, then just go to bed.

 

[Rexie J]

The PAFC should be applauded for (attempting) keep it's Members informed on this vital issue

 

[Peck]

Portia dear, if you're too tired, then just go to bed.

Once upon a time, in the days before laptops. People actually did this.

Now I stay up till 5 am after "going to bed" at 11.

Keith called Kochie, Kochie called Kim Williams, Kim Williams called David Penberthy and said "What the **** is going on down there Penbo? Tell Rucci to pull his head in before I send Piers Ackerman down to sort him out again!"

Never but never again !

Thank you Christoh for busting the media block-out, which for me began with an intrusion on the private members' email I got from the Club.
War is declared.

Didnt bust anything, I credit being too lazy to close a tab as the reason I still had it. Very strange it got taken down tho.

Article in question I assume

The article is up on the Adelaide Now website including a rebuttal from Keith Thomas.

Power's push for SANFL reserves spells end for Magpies
We can't lose the Magpies

You did as far as this thread was concerned. Members were crying: "What happened?"
Don't be so modest, mate. And never admit to being lazy, old Army adage.

 

[StrappingTape]

Seriously nah how ****ing hard is it. The solution to all this is so ****ing simple to make the Magpies the reserves team and leave them as is especially if they truely are so concerned about their comp and not ****ing it up. ****ing SA

 

[Portmanteau]

We're going to get ****ed here.

 

[ploppy]

OK whats going on with these jokers...why would there be any requirement in the sale of the licences that the 2 AFL sides have to have equal access to the SANFL..who would put it there and why..who would care...surely the 2 clubs are different and can be treated different and want to be treated different and theres no reason to treat them the same. Port use the magpies for their reserves and Crows can do whatever i dont really care..and there making the rules up as they go now theres only 8 football club directors deciding whats best for the state..country,port and crows are not inluded in the direction of football in south australia...thats just great..

Had trouble finding the link to KT's rebuttal, so add it here in case others have similar issue.

Hard to get my old head around the reality of a callow 22-year-old trying to tell a 143-year-old veteran what to do from the other side of the (SANFL) fence - when its the veteran who put in the heavy lifting to help build that fence, and along the way decorated it with 36 flags.

I like how Rucci has a Q&A interview with himself.

 

[chachi11]

**** I hate the sanfl...

 

[Amstaff_]

****ing bullshit.

We are going to get milned here.

 

[ploppy]

the crows should just buy 4 of the sanfl clubs and we buy the other 3..

 

[simba_]

so they really made us remove the letter to the supporters and they put a chopped up version on adelaidenow, a website for crows supporters?

 

[Lockhart Road]

On first reading I got the impression he contradicted himself more than once.
Could be the fault of editing after KT's shot across the bows.
Reckon I'll delay the re-read until the morning, when I'm my usual meek and mild self again.
Will probably be re-re-re-edited by then.

pissants

Never happen.
What do you think this is - Communist China ?

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Are the Crows going to undermine us here by presenting a model to the SANFL that has a Power and Crows team in the SANFL and kills off the Magpies at all levels?

They would love that as it kills off our competitive advantage over them which is our history and tradition our REAL club culture and our junior system.
