2016 Non-Crows AFL Discussion - Cont. in Part 2 (link in OP)

[Sam_Malone]

No actually ......i watch teams that i enjoy the way they play ......the state of origin plays no part .......although some teams iam affected by team colors that i simply don't enjoy watching ......Brisbane, North Melb, and Sydney have to be playing elite footy for me to want to watch ........think it's the maroon and white in guernsey colors i don't like

I actually enjoy watching Port play ......

Cool, that's your prerogative. Just as it's our to watch them and then enjoy their failures.

 

[adelaidecrows]

glory be I would hope so.
It's actually all back to front. Adelaide FC is basically located in Port Adelaide.
Or you can smell it from there anyway.
But too expensive to fix that boo-boo for the foreseeable future it seems.

Footy park should be demolished and just have an open oval.

Seriously......peoples pre-occupation with Power is stalker creepy ........i prefer to ignore them & by not acknowledging their existence via silence, i find far more effective

Continually posting about them simply reinforces a complex

It's cos we're from Melbourne.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

I was so disgusted watching Port play last nite that I left at half-time. I've been to several of their games and all they do is turn the football over. How can you enjoy watching that crap?

I do because of my state heritage .....their guernsey colors, like the prison bar are very watchable ......isn't it interesting that in all states the major teams have all been black & white ...there's a psychological aspect there

With the skills as bad as they were last night though .....there's watching & having on in the background whilst on the computer .......would i ever do what you do & physically go to watch them ....only to barrack against them in a final thanks

They played last night.

Yep and sometimes its just fun. Although it becomes a complex if during the games your eyes twitch and you begin sweating and shaking, rocking back and forth while repeating to yourself (outloud) "Port are losing, must bag them on bigfooty"

"I didn't even hold up my scarf......."
Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I've decided I am going and I will face the crowd holding up my Crows scarf and sing'' gonna tear you apart''

 

[Mego Red]

Darcy Byrne Jones, Luke Austin and Dougal Howard would all be pushing for AFL selection in the Crows. DBJ is a gun in the mould of a younger laird.

Doedee is looking vastly better than DBJ. Austin is maybe at Keath level, and Dougal Howard looks less likely than Dear.

DBJ is an AFL footballer. After that, it falls off a cliff.

I will be there!

Check out the form of Dixon in the background when Palmer is getting interviewed

skip to 40 secs if you're not keen on listening to the play school feel good music playing in the background

That is the plan, over the next 10 years

 

[CrowinNT]

Why are some of you suggesting Port be banished to my wonderful city of Darwin?
No thanks. We have enough ferals as it is.

 

[treeman]

Couple of things from Rooch this morning:

Should Port ask for Salary cap compensation for Ryder and Monfries?

Port out of confidence and no longer believes in their ability to take the risks anymore.

After last nights poor crowd on a Saturday night, with bring a friend for free and a lot of Melbourne supporters there, How big will the crowd at the showdown be? Port home game, the bandwagoners won't want to watch us beat them, how many true fans do they have?
Maybe they could have a sell your ticket to a Crows supporter initiative, it would get them a decent crowd for a change.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

I thought their fans ALWAYS turn up

 

[treeman]

Lol now he's talking about Jude Bolton and how he thinks our easy run home will hurt us for finals.
Last I checked Port is generally considered a finals like game doesn't matter about ladder position and West Coast are in the top 8 for the final round.
Not like we are playing bottom 3 teams last three rounds.

A lower end scale showdown crowd. If they win watch how everyone comes out the woodwork and is a port fan the following week.

If Tredrea live in Melbourne he would be out at about 5 clubs talking to their forwards.

I thought he was a complete flog on the ground but he actually knows his stuff and is clearly the best CHF to play AFL in this city, it just shows which is the smartest and the more mature club in town.

I used to hate him, then ran into him at something one day, and had a brief chat - he's actually a bloody good bloke; I guess it was just massive white line fever that made him such a dick.

According to the Port board last night Tredrea said he had offered numerous times to help out with Port's forwards but they have never taken him up on the offer. Said he felt awkward helping out Tex and JJ but the Crows had rung him and asked for his help so he did

Wow. Here's a story for you Rooch. Wonder if you'll pick this one up?

Schulz is old and finished.

Butcher is shit.

Dixon would benefit from some help.

 

[rocket18]

33k for a Saturday when finals are still a chance, giving free tickets to all members to bring a friend.

Their strategy of selling more 3 game memberships in lieu of 11 game has backfired spectacularly.

Tredders has always been a nice dude when I've ran into him.

Seriously, if I was a coach, I wouldn't allow those stupid ****ing beards.

 

[King Elvis]

Massive form turnaround coming up after a trip to spend less shoes and clip joint.

What's this stuff about shoes?

But they're scary

 

[1970crow]

33,000 to Sat night game is a joke. Fans jumping off a sinking ship.

They were getting low 20's at footy park from memory. If they bottom out at 30k it's pretty good.

Aha the NT News. Finest journalism in Australia.



Would be great to see Port relocated to the top end. Sorry CrowinNT
