Player Watch Welcome to Port Adelaide Rory Atkins

Still think this is funny. Ratkins at port lol

 

[Tibbs]

I never understood the level of hate for chaplin. He used to wave his arms around...he became a coach. He said Richmond had more unity and professionalism as a playing group than port..it eventually proved to be correct. He left as a free agent and port got whatever compensation. He won a flag coaching at Melbourne. Meh. If a player left as a free agent now and said port were somewhat unprofessional and not united then the player would be a bit of a hero. Its not like he played in some golden period of port.

...I really don't have any issue with ratkins. He shouldn't be on an afl list but port knew that. It seems he helped to get jack whitlock to the club through a salary cap dump.

Maybe thinking Luko, & then typed Whitlo?

 

[Steve Dore]

A lot of players that have been disliked once they left but I can't recall us recruiting a player that was already widely disliked by the supporters.

Looking forward to the melts when he's picked on the regular.

Outraged at first, now a bit of a giggle!

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I'm going to give RatCat a chance.

 

[PowerLil]

I'm going to give RatCat a chance.

Nah. * him.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Nah. * him.

What happens if he kicks a goal after the siren to win the Grand Final.

 

[JimmyBC]

Yea I gotta say whatever I once thought of him he gets a clean slate from me until he spuds it up.

 

[Butters and Pepper]

What happens if he kicks a goal after the siren to win the Grand Final.

He'll rush to the boundary and cup his ears.

Contempt more than hate for Chaplin. If he'd made those comments in a private manner, that'd have been fine, but you don't trash a club publicly on the way out, unless they'd mistreated you firstly. There's also the strong suspicion that it was him who stole Wanganeen's 2004 Premiership guernsey.

Added to the fact that he was part of the leadership group that presided over the thing he was pointing out.

The Maggie's would have won their 37th SANFL premiership.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Rory, you're always running here and there
(Here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)

 

[Windy Cindy]

I'm struggling to think of a more worthy number 1. Cameron Cloke and Wes Fellowes are up there.

troy chaplin has to be right up there

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Yea I gotta say whatever I once thought of him he gets a clean slate from me until he spuds it up.

Yes. Wait until the respuddening and then lose it.

And who doesn't love a good respuddening.

 

[Powerade 08]

Nope. But there will be when he’s added to the coaching group. that would have been the carrot to get him over.

Camporeale talked up his coaching ability when the trade happened.

 

[JimmyBC]

Yes. Wait until the respuddening and then lose it.

And who doesn't love a good respuddening.

We've had bigger spuds in recent history I'd pick him over Boak even.

 

[rumoursofwinter]

I think his salary cap dump helped give port the 29. Its hard to know exactly what happened as his agent forced through the trade.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I know but we haven't bought back a spud back in for a while and a Cows spud no less.

 

[PowerLil]

troy chaplin has to be right up there

Yeah. The finger pointing was definitely annoying.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

The Maggie's would have won their 37th SANFL premiership.

I'm not the biggest Jed McEntee fan but when he's playing for the Port Adelaide Power, I barrack for him.

I'll do the same courtesy if Ratcat debuts for the Power.

Sutts last 2 years at the magpies was abysmal. Particularly the last, he played what? 7 games? And did nothing in ant of them.

To think, Sam Gray was happy to play for the magpies (and his brother Tom was gonna come back with him) and we said "not interested" to keep Sutts around. Mind blown.

I hear he's been jawmaxxing in the gym after hours
