    Mega Thread Port Forum General AFL Thread Part 32

    Man - what is the average age on this forum??? Talking about 1976 like it was yesterday.

    Mega Thread Port Forum General AFL Thread Part 32

    I find Hird particularly uncompelling in his pitch last night on Footy Classified. Basically, all about his long family history, loving the club and wanting to see it be successful. It is just a bunch of vacuous platitudes. He just sound like a fan. Then all his mates on the panel go yeah...

    Preview Changes and Preview Round 11 vs Carlton Saturday May 23rd 705pm.

    I understand the sentiment, but don't you think he has been completely invisible when he has gone forward this year?

    Player Watch Pick #56 (2021) - Dante Visentini

    There are a few issues with this guy. Most of the time he just doesn't look like he will mark the ball at all. He kind of flaps or claps at it. It is like no one has told him about forming the W and getting your hands behind the ball. Half his kicks (of the very few he gets) go astray. He...

    News Port Adelaide's Next Generation Academy

    Yes - whilst what I said was fairly poorly worded, I think the club should have done better in arguing against this rule change. We needed to be stronger and harder from the start. Think of what Eddie McGuire would have done. Some say it is because we can't bite the hand that feeds us -...

    News Port Adelaide's Next Generation Academy

    .... And as the ladder which gave the leg up to Brisbane has now been taken away - they stay up whilst other can't climb to their level. It entrenches and extends their unfair advantage for 12 or so years. How does it look if they win 5 more premierships in the next 10 years as all other teams...

    News Port Adelaide's Next Generation Academy

    Might be strong but was pretty incoherent. As someone else said what the hell was the V in AFL stuff?? No wonder the lobbying was ineffective, if he was leading it. What he should have said is: 1. This is unfair. Brisbane and Collingwood and others got to benefit from the rules and when...

    Review Round 6, 2026 vs Hawthorn

    Sweet missing not once but twice from 15 meters cost us the game more than Georgi missing from 45 (which he probably should have kicked too). JHF missing at the start of the 4th hurt too. That could have changed the momentum somewhat. I think people are making a bit too much of POrt's injury...

    Player Watch Pick #56 (2021) - Dante Visentini

    There is a fair gap between getting 0 marks, 1 kick, 1 handball for an entire game and Max Gawn. Yes, ruckmen might mature later, but there are also plenty of young ruckman who never become good players. We need to do more than just wait and hope he comes good. He needs to be showing something...

    Preview Changes & Preview Round 6, 2026 vs Hawthorn at Marvel

    I was surprised how ineffectual Marshall was on Sunday. I spend half the time wondering whether he was forward, back or injured and off the pitch. Not sure whether swinging contributed to his poor performance. Swinging can mount the pressure to perform. If he was playing, I would tell...

    MRP / Trib. Zak Butters wins the Appeal

    How about if this idiot umpire is the thing that galvanises Butters to stay at Port?

    Player Watch Jack Lukosius

    We sat in different seats last night. On level one in the Eastern stand so go to watch Luko a fair bit whilst he was on that wing. It is funny how you can see different things from a different perspective. The guy just lacks any intensity to anything he does. Even the way he runs back to...

    Opinion General AFL Academy Discussion

    I love how he states that the new rules don't need a transition period - i.e come in after two years or something because the changes have been flagged. He thinks clubs can plan for a change that has not been specified, just the vague notion that things will change in someway. It is clearly...

    Preview Changes and Preview Thread for Round 5, 2026 vs St kilda @ Adelaide oval

    Why does everyone want to play Sweet and Visintini? Sweet was ok (much better than usual) on Saturday but still pretty ineffective. They are both currently poor players with really limited impact on the game. They are both clearly in the bottom quarter of AFL rucks. Why would we play...
