2017 Non Crows AFL Discussion Thread - Part III

[treeman]

Don't think it really matters. Probably GWS.

Worst result would be a draw.

So it's your fault?

In two weeks time, they play the Roos at 1.40pm on a Sat. If they lose big to West Coast, could be looking at a 30k crowd!

Expecting the 'Hinkley lost faith' thread to get a good run-through the next few days.

Already bumped. Should walk or be sacked tomorrow morning apparently.

It's pretty funny seeing the Richmond supporters sing their song on the hill to add some salt to Port's wounds haha

 

[Simmo28]

Ogilvie (and many others) stuffed that one up...he wasn't even Port's first choice!

But on the topics of first year players, and seeing the impact of Richmond's mosquito fleet...I believe the time has come to play Galluci (along with a returning Cameron).

Unlike Richmond we will also have quality talls but a forward half with a rotating fleet of Betts, Knight, Cameron, Galluci, Milera will give us the pace/zip/pressure/chaos we need down there.

Maybe have a chat with AFC for a job to replace one of the many expert (sic) assistant coaches

I'm actually very positive about Galluci but we have to be honest and say missing SPP was a mistake.

It's not a mistake at all yet.

SPP versus Greenwood in the battle for best new AFL talent in SA this season:

SPP: 18 disposals (9 contested), DE 70%, 13.7 goals in 14 games, 4 tackles, 2 marks, 3 clearances, 3 clangers

Huge: 16 disposals (11 contested), DE 74%, 5.1 goals in 6 games, 8 tackles, 2 marks, 4 clearances, 2 clangers

Yes, I should have stayed quiet!

 

[treeman]

But cold

What about the rivalry?

Long term you may be right but short term SPP would be of massive value for us now.

A mistake this year
Won't know for sure for a few years

Was Chaplin leading it...

 

[adelaidecrows]

Every time Port lose, their supporters say "This isn't the Port Adelaide I grew up watching".

Because they aren't. They never have been.

Being dominant in a 9 team comp is far easier than being dominant in an 17 team comp. Port supporters are stupid.

 

[chazwazza]

Just wait until they get Ryder, White and Monfries back.......

Said Janus all last year.

Janus????? Who's Janus?

 

[TheLeftFist8]

I wonder if talkback will be inundated with arrogant Port flogs again this week like last week?

 

[Geoffa32]

I reckon Pittard needs to fake an injury before he stinks up more games and any FA offers evaporate.

Whoever has the best day. Who gets there is anyone's guess but I still think once the Giants get some cattle back they'll win.

Sydney IF they make it will be tough. Everyone else has huge question marks.

Giants flog Sydney everytime they play them

Squiba took one for the team with his choking post

I'm sure we'd still be playing others ahead of him. We are after all the club who has played a grand total of 4 1st round picks in Round 1.

 

[Magma]

is travis boak the most pointless captain in the league?

 

[chazwazza]

Has there ever been a top 8 team that hasn't beaten a top 8 team all year?

Loved this one from Port Board


"It's very broken out there

Kens a fool. Trengove and neade up forward. One dimensional fool. Arrogant and stubborn.

But we have a clown as president. And no culture of ruthlessness. So nothing will change"

 

[xchadders]

That's not good for us

nah, we just have to keep winning. don't like relying on other teams losing to keep us safe.

A true legend. Rip in pieces.

 

[Shuestar13]

Lol Port are rubbish. Eagles by 80 points next week.

LOL, I would desperately love to beat them by such a margin! But we haven't looked like "flat tracking" anyone this year... I would be happy with just a win!

I am already nervy. I know what the stats say, but they are bound to get a 'scalp' sooner or later. Knowing how this year is going... pls give me some reassurance! I will need more during the week hehe!
