IF PORT HOST A HOME FINAL TO THE CROWS THIS YEAR I THINK THE PAFC SHOULD MAKE THEM USE THE FOOTY PARK CHANGEROOMS AND NOT THEIR OWN AS THEY WILL BE THE VISITING TEAM,
, THE ONLY DOWNSIDE TO THIS IS THAT THERE SUPPORTERS WONT BE ABLE TO ABUSE THEM AT HALF TIME AND FULL TIME! :D
I would of said we could have their changerooms but the players might suffer nauseau and may not be able to play the second half after looking at all that shiit paint on the wall!
Let them use their own changerooms.
They obviously don't help.

Port home final, no Crows changerooms! Tragic, what is the what is the world coming to? :rolleyes: Perhaps it might have something to do with the Crows paying for their changerooms (& a dividend back to the SANFL for that matter). ;) So will the Power be forced to wear white shorts too? :o

If the the crows past form over the last three weeks is anything to go on they will be lucky to make it past the first week of the finals, that's if they do make the final eight.
It may not even be a concern. It is highly unlikely at this stage that the Crows will meet Port in any final.
Didn't the cows do something like that to us for the showdown this year. We had to use a different bench & changeroom as i recall. Also apparently Power players weren't given their normal carparks etc. We should do exactly the same to them anytime we play them in a Port home game, final or not.

Dont they also get the convention room for guests in our home games, I was walking around the blue seats in 98 at our home showdown and the convention was full of Crow corporates, logos etc, it is a disgrace to drive into and see all this crap Crow signage around footy park, but who cares footy park is on the downfall, It is now on the same level as Optus Oval, the seating is Art decor and cold (probably how Smart got pneumonia) , the steps aren't user friendly after a few beers, it is dark and grey, the catering is a joke compared to other venues, If u sit in the first five rows u cannot see over to the other side because of the hill,
although the scoreboard and new stand is great!
But u go to any other AFL venue (besides ACT, TAS) and the stadium has a more modern and people friendly facilities, the atmosphere is five times as good, e.g I been to a lot of footy park games like last Sunday 46 000, and I went to the Gabba this year and the atmosphere was three times as good and there were only 24000 people there, and u cant say because it is a smaller stadium because the MCGs atmosphere is better with same amount of Crowd, Football Park is one big bowl, full of Cement, metal, poles and more cement.
Just cant wait till Mike Rann decides to build Power Park in the Parklands out the front of the brewery

It was just an example, it would be good though, save me a big cab fare into the city, Maybe if we knocked down the old Woolsheds and Harris scarfe storage buildings in the heart of the Port. Those buildings are an eyesaw and I hope oneday some Pyrotechnic burns em down, they are not really being used now, only the occassional rave and one timber company

Make it nice and soft and comfortable for them off the ground for all I care.
But anyway, one week at a time and there's many a slip etc (insert own cautionary proverb here [ ] )
