Analysis We Were Port Adelaide - Facts, Statistics, and Quotes

[RussellEbertHandball]

In the words of one of the greats of PAFC and someone who knew what was needed to make a successful club. But good luck with your meme's I'm sure you'll achieve the same.

So Big Bob asked for loyalty and to not turn into pants wetters and jump off after finishing;
(1950) 3rd, 1st, 3rd, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st, (1959)
(1960) 3rd, 3rd, 1st, 1st, 2nd, 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 6th, 3rd (1970)

If Big Bob was still around, he would tell these failures in charge of our club to **** off and go and do something else, or go join someone who is prepared to accept your failures.

Big Bob would not be repeating the words of post 1970 season in 2019 when after that terrible last Saturday in September 2007, we have achieved SFA as a club, in what really counts, finals success and flags.

I don't want pants wetters in charge of my club, wanting stability over success and too scared of change.

It says: "... this year..."; "... unless the criticism is constructive..."

How does this apply to "WWPA"?

The biggest problem with this is that with the current board it is impossible to give constructive criticism.

The members have no power over the majority of the board and the board don't listen to the members.

Who are you to speak on behalf of Bob? Bob was an optimist not a pessimist.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

Who are you to speak on behalf of Bob? Bob was an optimist not a pessimist.

Bob acted he didn't speak. I think REH's message is stop the chit chat and do something.

Anything.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Who are you to speak on behalf of Bob? Bob was an optimist not a pessimist.

Big Bob understood winning and was a realist. He sacked a coach after he won 5 flags in a row, and then learnt from his mistake.

We've had five minutes of football sunshine since October 2007 - to paraphrase Johnny Howard.

Correct but I was disputing your right to speak on behalf of Bob, you are entitled to express your own opinion. Bob was a 100% supporter of the club and when he saw a problem he got the facts and acted to correct it (successfully in most cases). He did not spend his time speculating on things he did not know or speaking on behalf of other.

I think REH is the chit chat part, but that is only my opinion.

So you say I shouldn't speak for Bob, but you are happy to tell me what he was and wasn't thinking.

He wasn't speaking on behalf of Bob.
He was giving facts.
Winning facts.

Read the sentence, "In line with this rebuilding policy...", then compare it to what's happened in our "play the youth" season of 2019.

Bob dealt with facts, straight up, no nonsense, and here's the memo kind of guy.

Hey Alyx how dare you question the club and put together well presented facts that most of us agree with

Deregister your accounts and join the sunshine and rainbows happy clappers brigade you miserable campaigner

 

[Contested Marx]

Anyway, "loyalty to the club" doesn't mean loyalty to the current failure of a coach and the buffoons who keep him there.

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

In the words of one of the greats of PAFC and someone who knew what was needed to make a successful club. But good luck with your meme's I'm sure you'll achieve the same.

"Loyalty to the cause" is the reason why we are so angry and calling for changes. It's rebuild time and the current leaders have no business being part of it.

 

[tribey]

Operative word is lean season. Singular doofus.

Yep.

We swallowed 2015 as something of a blip/backslide/consolidation year. For the most part 2016 was begrudgingly accepted due to the Ryder/Monfries suspensions and virtually career-ending injuries to Schulz and White in Round 1.

But whichever way you cut it, 2017, 2018 and 2019 were unacceptable, putrid garbage.

So even if we maintain the generosity of a pass for 15/16, the trio of most recent seasons are more than enough to light the torches and lube up the pitchforks.

In the wider context of the raging bin blaze the club has been since 2007, appeals for calm, faith, patience and unerring loyalty to this mess are absolutely f***ing bonkers.

 

[NEGAN]

Thank you Alyx,

Brutal but honest facts and your work to get your voice heard is fantastic.

I think you'll find that may have been Donald Trump.

Ghandi said "First they ignore you, then they abuse you, then they crack down on you and then you win"

In one short phrase your argument lost all credibility.
