Toast Warren Tredrea - Elected to the Port Board (Football discussion only)

[ElectricG]

What was with that little drive by about Warren being a "selfish" leader as a player? What was that even in reference to?

Not letting Brisbane have a fourth flag

Was trying to work that out myself.

Still the all-time leader in average goal assists by a key forward.

Blew out his knee in a contract year when he was smackbang in the middle of his prime, and spent 2007-10 on rolling 12 month contracts worth a fraction of what his market value would’ve been if healthy.

“Selfish”.

 

[JimmyBC]

Selfish is an odd call he was driven, serious & probably not the most popular bloke in the changeroom, neither was Buckley for that matter... I can't imagine why you need those types lol

Mike Sheahan dropping his monocle when he asked Brett Montgomery who the best he ever played with was.

I expected him to say Gavin Wanganeen, Chris Grant, Scott West or Brad Johnson!!1

 

[VineValerian]

Hang in there, Warren.
Keep playing the long game.
Arm yourself with all the ammunition.
Strike when the time is right.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

So who’s the gossip at Port feeding Caro her info or does she just call people and put a story together? Lockhart Road RussellEbertHandball ? CD, Richo, Cardone?

and Kane Cornes. What a twit.

I'd say probably in this order, CD, Cos, Holly and Richo. I reckon Richo would be more about dealing with AFL HQ/Port related stuff as she has lots of contacts inside AFL HQ.

 

[KrispyKremeMullanikka]

Apparently today sports show with Rowey and Timmy G on 5AA has been blocked for “copyright infringement.”

It was blocked after Caro and Kane’s drive by to Tredders and us (the supporters).

Interesting.

maybe he wanted to be a fire fighter too

 

[RossFC]

How many more hit pieces until Tredders can explore legal action against Channel 9?

 

[PowerBaz]

Their silence on all fronts is interesting.

Ken and the board and Koch are in a hiding to nothing if you ask me. It will implode at some point.

Then they will probably come out and blame the supporters too.

When will someone come out and just keep stating the facts, what is it, like - 20% win loss record against top 4 teams after 12 years.

Is that person the right person to coach us to another premiership?

It’s really simple….

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Warren is Port Adelaide and the way he talks is so diametrically opposed to the Four Frauds, Hinkley, Koch, Davies and Richardson, it just shows you what a real Port Adelaide person actually talks and acts like.

It's bloody refreshing.

 

[Nemisis]

Warren is the maestro of disrupters. He is not doing it for money or fame but for the love of his club. He couldn't give a stuff with pretenders and salary munchers. A leader of The Rabble.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

The missing element here is that if/when we call time on Ken, the board will cop heat for the extension, needlessly dishing out $1.5 million only to give him the arse not even half way through the contract. They are absolutely waiting and determining when they can cut ties, while minimising/deflecting any embarrassment and accountability (as per usual)

And they will cop the most ironic heat of all from the Vic media for "pandering to the fans"

[Enviable Tradition]

Imagine deciding that the one bloke, in a volunteer role, who is standing up for the club and the fans is the selfish one.

It is obvious he loves the club just like the fans.

You take a look at the Four Frauds and they are just losers hanging on to power based on their low self-esteem.

It's only because he didn't play with the better KFs, like Brown, Riewoldt or Brett Burton

 

[Handyandy]

Tredders is a dead set legend who is revered amongst supporters
Those setting their media attack dogs onto him would do well to remember
Tredders is so well respected by supporters it will hurt the club & themselves to hear anymore of it

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Caro on the Real Footy podcast (about 20 mins in) says Tredrea should step down as a board member.


Her co-host actually does a decent job of recognising that he is representing the fan base.

 

[Chewy316]

Amusing that barely 2 weeks ago that so many on here were labelling Warren as just another puppet for the regime.

“Ken saved Port Adelaide”

 

[FishingRick04]

“Ken saved Port Adelaide”

Saved us from what?

Did he move us to Adelaide Oval? Did he get our sponsors?

They just go with what other lazy journos go with. There’s no one to challenge them ever.

 

[Grave Danger]

“Ken saved Port Adelaide”

...like a nonce who saves a kid from the streets

 

[Interstater]

This week smells like the end of Hinkley, enjoy.
