2014 Non-Crows AFL Discussion

[SmegHead]

Ok, Port going hard after Tex.

Walker to Port for long term contract $1,000,000 per year, according to Kingy.

Alrighty then.

Tex is the new Future!

OK…I see now I've been a bit slow on the uptake with this. Already been talked to death elsewhere, but I'm keen to know how we will keep Tex, Sloane, and Danger, because every club in Australia say the'll be making a play for them.

We will keep them because they're the future of the AFC. Ricciuto, McLeod and Goodwin MkII. Players like these stay.

No different to the gun players of 17 other clubs. Simply create an environment the players enjoy being in and they should stay. $ will be there if they stay, and I don't think it'd be the main motivation for any of them.

The best part about this is if it did happen would be seeing the port posters do a 180 in regards to their opinion on tex the dickhead mullet hopeless bogan.

Actually most of them seem to actually like Tex. It's every other player who has ever worn a Crows guernsey that they don't like.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

If you don't like Tex you're un-Australian

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Anyone see the quote from Mark Evans defending the jumper decision that Richmond can use their home jumper vs port in normal games but not finals. Was so much like Trigg trying to defend why the board didn't sack him, words along the lines of "I wish I could explain it better but I can't". Hillarious if it wasn't so disgraceful.

Hard to explain the unexplainable - need to be a "bloody good" politician!

He'd have to cut half his brain out to fit the creed.

Can not see it happening.

$1,000,000 would not be enough as I'm sure the crows will offer something like $720,000 to $750,000 a year. That's basically $250,000 to shift club, then add the tax man and it decreased to something like $135,000 a year.

$135,000 would not be enough to change clubs in the same city. Moving to a different state wouldn't be so bad but going from the crows to the power (and vice versa) would cause way too much crap in his day to day life.

It's not like it's just 2 hours of footy each week. It's every day that he will live with that decision. Imagine going to the shops, getting petrol, movies or just down the beach - I'm sure someone will remind him.

Won't accept it anyway. Nothing to worry about.

reckon they probably like Sloane, too...

everyone loves Rory

360 Port wank fest is on now.

Is it really that bad here? I know night clubs are a different story, but do fans really hassle players in every day life? What losers. As much as I dislike wanks like Wingard, I would never hassle him regardless of size.

I don't think Port will have the room in their cap to accommodate Tex in the first place.

Wash your mouth out.

But Michael Owen played at United.

Did a couple of laps before he reduced himself though. (Still no excuse)

No, not at all but what would it be like if he went from the crows over to the port power?

Do you think the fans would just accept it or give him some curry?

Taking the piss?

What do you mean?

Do you not think crows fans would care?

At the game sure, fair game. I guess I can't speak about what others would do. I wouldn't.

If I saw Tippett say shopping I wouldn't abuse him, I would think yes you are an a-hole but it wouldn't cross my mind to hassle the guy. I think if Crows fans did that it would be disappointing and immature.

On Sunday mornings in 00s I often would regularly see Power players having brekkie at Semaphore, I never saw any fans hassle them even once. I remember young kids getting autographs but that was it.

If he left, and went to Port Power - I don't think it would be pretty.

Yes. I think your right because it would be like a betrayal right on our doorstep.

Im just waiting for Tippett to visit AO for a Crows game.

I can easily see how Danger can piss off some opposition supporters, but definitely not Tex. Sloane as well.

He has somewhat likeable charisma about him.
