We will miss you this weekend... come back soon you hear.

Have a good rest because X is definitely best 22

 

[Doctor Feel]

lol @ the AFL website saying he was "Axed"

I'm thinking best 18....

lol @ the AFL website saying he was "Axed"

IMHO ,The club should have avoided aĺl this conjecture by simply stating either rested/injured based on late injury in showdown...or similar

 

[Spadge]

Lou Codge is an out for out for our game game stated as being "managed"

Port should have absolutely stated he was either being managed or rested for this game. Omitted gives the impression he was dropped for poor form which is absolutely wrong

Considering his season so far surely he will be an automatic in for next weeks game especially on the big open spaces of the MCG his running power will be needed

Yes, a real PR disaster. How will we recover.

22 disposals 9 score involvements and kept his main opponent, Seedsman to 7 disposals. He was ripe to be dropped!!!!

Rested not dropped. Coming straight back in.

 

[Leaveit2charlie]

Possibly best we don't rest him again.

F***ing show pulled this s*** with butters when he told him to cool it...hasn't been the same since...


If he ruins X....he better not ruin X

I know he missed them but was pleased to see a player take responsibility for a set shot from inside 50.

Wonder if taking gettable shots from inside 50 when there is no better options is against team rules?

What a ******* joke

What a ******* joke

Has to be more to it, it just makes no sense. And I'm not buying the suggestion that it's some sort of disciplinary thing and that he's stuffed up off field, I know anything is possible, he just seems way too mature and conscientious about his footy to me. Someone suggested that he was dropped so they could shoehorn Sutcliffe into the team. Morons, if that's the case.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

I suspect there's possibly something a bit more sarcastic about Hinkley's comment. It doesn't make any sense that Duursma was dropped and then didn't play in the SANFL Showdown.

 

[Harlott]

How the **** can you say you dropped this guy based on form? Just bull**** Ken.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

He covers the most distance so you can’t say it’s work rate. You could argue skills on occasions but is no different to 90% of the rest of the best 22. You can’t say impact because is consistently getting 20+ disposals and shots on goal. Maybe his defensive side of his game is down, not tackling/putting defensive pressure on.

It seems to me he is very unlucky

Well it wouldn't be the first time the coaching staff has completely ****ed up with selection.

[Burton89onegoal]

I think its fairly obvious he wasnt dropped/he was rested.

What is even more obvious is that Ken has no idea how to think on the spot, and with the way he second-guesses himself, every thing he says digs an increasingly deeper hole that he has no ability to dig himself out of.

Today on SEN he indicated Duursma was rested. Maybe he just doesn't know?

Exactly, and he will be back in this week
