News Port Adelaide announces co-captains - Ollie Wines and Tom Jonas

[Interstater]

KKK are dead to me.

I'll be at games but don't expect me to drink the ****ing koolaid.
The players that deserve it will get my support, the rest will get my arms crossed silence.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Not sure why everyone is getting so triggered by this now. It's seemed like a foregone conclusion for about a month.

It's due to the "If you don't like it, suck it up. We don't need to explain ourselves. Oh by the way, buy a membership." attitude.

I was going to write so when does the media blitz start that we need Co-Chairmen, Co-CEO's and Co-Coaches? and when do we blitz Kochie's twitter account that you have been an abject failure for 4 years and we need 3 more co's appointed.

But I think as referring to them as KKK might get a more immediate response.

 

[Macca19]

I know I should be outraged at this, but i'm just not. It really doesn't bother me as much as I know it should.

The only thing that bothers me is the club couldnt be decisive and just make a definitive decision. There is next to no statistical or historical fact saying that this will increase our chances of winning a premiership. That's what disappoints me.

 

[JUSTWORK]

I'll be at games but don't expect me to drink the ******* koolaid.

Really not sure how ill feel when NTUA comes on.... those clowns our tearing our great club apart.

Doubt there'll be any passion around the ground when it comes on.

This. The club has just taken a steaming shit on a much loved tradition for apparently no real performance gain. It’s a weak and lazy decision.

 

[Lagooner]

Co-pout.

 

[Harlott]

It's as obvious as daylight there's co captains because there is no stand out leader. Why get your knickers in a knot? No one deserves the captaincy. They're the best of a leadershipless bunch. They all usually go missing when it counts. Time to prove otherwise.

 

[PowerForGood]

I don't get the unhappiness with co captains personally.
But then I'm just a traditionalist....



..... in that the club does stuff it wants to and I just back em because I love em.

 

[PepeSilvia]

Cool, why?

Pretty much completely because (almost) everyone else on here hates it.

 

[Boxx]

Doubt there'll be any passion around the ground when it comes on.

Hahaha... yes there will be mate!

The majority of Port members would already be over the co-captain decision, don’t fall into the trap of believing that a few posters on BF represent the wider Port supporter base.

For the record, I’m pissed that we have gone down this path and am now firmly in the no number 1 to be worn at all camp.

But for posters to come on here and call for members to boycott games... yeah, nah!

I'll be pleasantly surprised if the club comes out tomorrow and says that there was no one good enough to deserve the right to wear the #1 so we've gone for the next best alternative in co-captains.

 

[Arsene Wenger]

Doesnt bother me one iota

 

[Wind Power]

We are Port Adelaide my butt.

We were Port Adelaide.

The crowds were ****ing frigid last season, bigfooty or not. This won't help.

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

I don't have an issue with people boycotting games because there aren't any other meaningful ways to send a message.

What about a “Sack Hinkley” sign?

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

If they're such ripping fellas, couldn't the more ripping of the two have been selected as sole captain, with the other to be vice?

Equals maybe

 

[Doctor Feel]

What about a “Sack Hinkley” sign?

Haha he's already been there!

 

[El Zorro]

What about a “Sack Hinkley” sign?

I'd like to see a "NOT MY CAPTAIN (S)" sign.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Really not sure how ill feel when NTUA comes on.... those clowns our tearing our great club apart.

Doubt there'll be any passion around the ground when it comes on.

But the thing is, that when things are tough and you feel at your lowest and you feel you ARE being torn apart, it is the exact time you SHOULD be singing NTUA ( in my opinion)

 

[El_Scorcho]

What about a “Sack Hinkley” sign?

I'm also fully supportive of that but expect a torrent abuse from a few people telling you to go support the crows, mixed in with lots of people that support you.

I hope you’ve held onto that sign because you could need it again at some point this season.

 

[Phil Thorgan]

Im triggered!! About to light the pitch fork and head down to Alberton

 

[Pedro59]

The sad thing, Scary thing is.... He's right, not only have he shit on (what is probably) our last great Port Adelaide tradition we do so looking we are copying the muppets from west lakes.

Aren't GWS , Sydney ,Gold Coast and the Crows all going with co captains this year?

So with us it will be near a third of the league?

Not an argument for but also hardly following the Crows

 

[StuMan]

I'm not fan of co-captains at all, but the way they've ****ed about with this...
They could have just come out and announced this weeks ago. I'd be annoyed at it, but I'd move on.

But they have just been so piss weak about this and let it drag on while they try to justify it.
Now it's the obvious has been leaked a day before anyway. This club is run by cowards.
