2017 Non Crows AFL Discussion Thread part 2

I find it amusing Tealsters crying about Robbie Gray.

Especially when he initiates contact.by backing into his opponent, not to create space but to try and win a free.

Compare Robbie's last contest to the one Betts put up in the south west pocket near the end of the game.

Eddie's intent is the ball and he marks it whilst being well held. Robbie's intent is to win a free and the umpires don't get sucked in.

But let's not forget JR was instrumental in getting his best mate Malcolm Blight to the club, not everything he did was bad.

Totally agree.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Umm last time I checked they have had mediocrity ever since 2004. Do they seem to forget their drought is now 12 years?

Going by your theory, Port fell off a cliff in finals in 2014......like they have every finals series for over a decade.

Mediocrity for you guys would be a bug step up.

Quite right, but he was an absolute ornery old bastard.

I don't remember Port hosting a prelim. What year was that? I've had a quick look but seem to have all been away matches.

Wasn't the 2014 prelim at the G?

You missed an H somewhere in the above

Thought it was at AO, but you're probably right.

Habsolute?

It was MCG because despite the puffing about how great they were and how they had turned from crap into a powerhouse in 13-14, Port didn't earn a top 4 H&A finish so a home PF was impossible.

But they have a top four list.....

ASADA are like the police. Can't catch any criminals but nailing people for going 5km/hr over the speed limit.

I am guessing the period Impey went "missing" was not a prescribed period where the club needs to know where a player is for ASADA purposes....

If it was they should be fined again after they openly admitted there was a decent period of time they did not know his whereabouts

Yeah, i reckon they got the bill for the Xmas party and thought, hmmm...

 

[jackster83]

I rckon port have been done a few times in the last few years.

I'm sure the state govt will give them a handout to cover it.

 

[subaru]

Hiding the drunk (Impey was MIA) was the thin edge of the wedge from hiding the druggie it seems.

Who was "ill"?

Not sure how aggressive the Hawks can be at the trade table when all you've got is a 29 year old Paul Puopolo on offer.

Hawks are handicapped to trade for May! They don't even have a 1st round pick this year and their younger players are trash

How can they be cashed up when they had to offload 2 players just to get the guys they did last year?

All clubs will have an extra $2-3M to play with this year, when the new CBA goes through.

However, they have no trade commodities left, so they'll probably be limited to signing free agents.
