I always thought it was a lack of method, more so than lack of talent, that made Port play they did under Primus. Just my 2 cents.You've got a lack of knowledge about Port Adelaide, give it a rest. You ask me how I speak for "most" when you said "most said Port had a good list". Very few football supporters said that, the media didn't say that, supposed football experts weren't saying that and many (yes many) of their own supporters thought it would take a number of years to rebuild. If you don't believe me then you can go and view their forum and what was being said in those times. They were a rabble on field and off before Hinkley took over. They went from getting smashed most weeks, losing to GWS to getting within a few kicks of a Prelim in 2013. In 2014 they were one kick away from playing in the big one.
Who said Hinkley was the only applicant? When you make things up or try to twist words it makes you look bad. I repeat, if everyone knew how good Port could become in basically no time then a number of good coaches would have jumped at the chance to have a crack over there. Instead they had Terry Wallace offering his services and a stack of untried coaches (which Ken was at the time). Never said Hinks was the only applicant. You've got issues if you think Koch walked in and decided who was going to be coach. They did have a process and selection panel. Are you Port's financial adviser? How do you know they're spending money they don't have
Where the hell have you pulled this from? What's with this "rocks in your head" rubbish. It's obvious to anyone reading who really lacks a clue on this subject. Go back and read it again. First I said a lot of good coaches weren't lining up for Port's gig despite your claims that "most" said they had a quality young list. Then you said good coaches weren't lining up for it because they were a rabble off field. I rebuttled by mentioning we got Hardwick (who you highly rate) despite being a rabble off field at the time. Did not once ever say no one applied for either job. Again, don't make things up. Just makes you look like an assYou're not one of those types who jumps on here and proclaims to have inside info are you?

he is a DFA so you don't have to use a draft pick on him.
I tried but even Photoshop refused to do it
Burgess happened at port, that's what happened .most of the kids were there.
Also they nailed Ollie Wines like Geelong nailed drafting selwood , we had the chance to do the same , if we nailed heppell instead of conca ,it would be a totally differnt ball game, but that's another story .

Honestly think things would be very different if he ended up at Richmond

Haven't you been reading the posts on here, we don't even have a strategy.
I wish we didn't if our current one involves recruiting McLean

Ricky McLean was actually at a C80 function earlier in the year
interesting hearing how things were different in the vfl back in the 70's, and his views on Carlton were amusing
Brock McLean ?

We know Dimma loves a battler ,but not even his loving and caring soul could find a spot for Frock McLean in the Richmond squad

Would you like her to play for us?

I guess we could have sprint offs between Brock and Matt Thomas tho it might take a long time for either to get across the line
So we get a "choice" of Robinson, Blease, Strauss, Hardingham, McLean, Raines, etc. No wonder Blair and the team have gone on holidays. We are trying to get the duds off the list, not add to them.
