    Resource Technology and the AFL

    Thought I start this thread as the AFL made it clear last year they are investing in technology to help solve some of the games controversial issues, and to keep in one place what the hell they are actually doing. Here is a copy of what I wrote in the General AFL thread part 25 last September...

    Analysis Football Operations Soft Cap limit / Luxury Tax thread

    I listened to AFL Coaches Association CEO Alistair Nicholson today on Whateley and he brought up that the AFL had introduced last year, that 20% of the head coaches salary can now sit outside the soft cap limit. Here are the changes announced in November. It allows for manipulation by all clubs...

    Resource Adelaide Oval Win-Loss Record and other stats

    Partly due to always struggling to find the stats put up by tribey in 2022 in that year's stats thread I've started this one so that over the years, we can track Port's record at home and see if we can get a real massive home advantage especially come finals time as various teams have when they...

    Official Club Stuff 2023 AGM - held on Friday 9th Feb 2024

    Rather than bury this specific election in other AGM and Directors threads I want this position and AGM to have its own thread. (Edit it wasn't several threads but one thread over 7.5 years that has had several title changes, ie latest is THE BOARD. PAFC DIRECTORS. Why? Just why?) The AGM...

    Resource 2023 Finals Ticketing Thread

    Given we have won 14 games and will be playing final, and 1 more win will ensure we get 1 final and 3 more wins I reckon means 2 more wins. Club is sending out an email to all members this arvo so might as well have this as the official ticketing thread. Most people no longer have a plastic...

    Toast Congratulations Mark Williams - inducted into Australian Football Hall of Fame

    Choco into the HoF. That is a surprise. Assume its for coaching rather than playing. Edit reading the AFL page on his induction, its gotta be as a player although his whole career is being acknowledged.

    Mega Thread Port Forum General AFL Thread Part 25

    I went to the shops a couple of hours ago and saw the Tsier's front page and it said Danger Ramped. Had a quick read and confirmed his ambulance was subject to ramping on Thursday night not something about being ramped during the game. See copy of front page below. A couple of times during the...

    Foreign born players - playing the game for first time when 18+ years old and making it to the big league(s)

    With Mason Cox closing in on 100 games and and Zach Touhy closing in on Jim Stynes' playing games total of 264 - he is on 258 and should break it before the finals, I thought it would be good to keep some stats on foreign born players. I'm interested in players who took up the game when they...

    AFLW AFLW List Management 2022-23

    This could have gone in 1 or 2 other thread so mods if you think it should be moved then do so. The AFL is looking at a one off overage draft ie players 19 or older and then try and align the timing of the draft similar to the men's at the end of the year and i guess have to be 18 by December 31...

    Opinion Best U/23 squad, peaking between 2025-29, and avoiding the Tassie expansion draining the best players curse, like the GC and GWS expansion.

    Yesterday I was thinking about KT's comment at the Focus Group FishingRick04 organised in October 2019 that we are building the best U/23 squad possible. Clubs are always talking about planing 5 or more years into the future. KT/the club had fed that line to Rucci who had run an article or...

    Roast Misleading and Deceptive representations / conduct by Koch breaches his fiduciary duty and has implications for all other board members

    Several times in his speeches at Alberton, at pre match functions and in Hong Kong and China, David Koch has stated he is just a professional bullshiter. Well David your bullshit will cost you, your club and your fellow directors. If we still had an August members info night or the AGM was...

    Analysis Malcolm Blight quit after Geelong fans booed him, will Argo Hinkley and Argo Koch do the same?

    Blight couldn't handle it, and fair enough he got Geelong into 2 GFs in 5 seasons and was in his 6th season and got there for a 3rd time at the end of theseason. What will the Argos do if we boo them during and after a showdown loss...

    Opinion Cripps, Parker and Davies - your time is nigh

    The last few weeks we have seen we have about as much quality depth as a flea's footprint. These 3 are responsible for list management via, trading, free agency and drafting. We recruit lots of flakey flankers but refuse to draft proper KPDs, KPFs, rucks and players who are highly skilled. We...

    Given how close the Winter Olympics are, I thought I'd open a preview and general thread, rather than stick stuff in the, Olympic Sports between games thread, like I did late last year. I was prompted by seeing Jackie Narracott has won the Skeleton World Cup event overnight. Its history and...

    Opinion No more flakey flankers

    Message to Cripps and Parker and even CD. Stop chasing flakey flankers. If Dawson is a flakey flanker, I don't want him. They were exposed again last night and most of them gave us nothing. Motlop and Fantasia delivered their usual expensive overpaid flakey efforts in a big final. DBJ, Burton...

    Pirate Life and the club have gone into a JV to raise more funds for the club, to help build the new Club Museum and are donating $5/slab for the sale of their new drop The Creed Lager.
