Choco Takes Aim

Choco gives me the s*ts. The only part of the off season I like is that I don't have to hear the creep whinge. He should get 'WA*KER' tattooed on his forehead.

he's right. they had to work hard to make a big loss straight after a premiership.

it can;t have been easy, but with dedication, perserverance and application they p*ssed it up against the wall.

well done them, I say. :thumbsu:
 
Does he think we will feel sorry for him? For the Port Adelaide Football Club?

Sorry, I'd rather kiss Eddie McGuire than give one cent to the PAFC. :eek:

I'd rather have my hands and legs tied up and locked up in a room with a TV showing Fox Footy's 'Grumpy Old Men' over and over again than give one cent to the PAFC ... then again, maybe not.

Clockwork Orange revisited. Don't forget the matchsticks to hold your eyelids open.

Choco takes aim at Crows

Port Adelaide coach Mark Williams has had a dig at local rival Adelaide and its reporting of a million-dollar profit again this year.

Asked after training on Wednesday how he reacted to 'the Crows being labelled the No. 1 team in town now', Williams said: "Well, they certainly are as far as making money. They just have to turn up - it's like selling Coke, I'd reckon. They make a million dollars every year.

"For us, we have to work hard from our marketing department, our sponsorship department - everyone has to work. And they really achieve what they get. It's a difficult task for us. It filters all the way down through the football department.

"Obviously we don't have the money that the Crows have to just go and spend - a shotgun approach on anything that they think might be good. We have to kind of pick the eyes out of it and that's why we sent those people (assistant coach Phil Walsh and fitness coach Darren Burgess) overseas to be able to do that and come back with the best stuff.

No money, yet they can afford to send their coaching staff overseas to learn from the best. Because a "soccer" coach, and baseball team can teach u a lot about AFL.....Or maybe they can teach u how to Make money....Funny if u wanted to learn from a succesful club a $5 taxi fare to West. Lakes would be much more afordable!!:)

Where successful?
One Wok, one minor premiership and 2 flukes in 16 years.

Successful from a financial point of view we are. Note that there are a lot of other AFL clubs whom have a much less successful rate of winning.........Anything. Otherwise, a $200 air ticket to brissy would suffice.

You can call it what you like but that won't change the history books - Back to Back.

Mind you one flag from 3 minor premierships and best winning record over 5 years (2001-2005) and what do you lot have - 1 flag and one big financial loss. Seems hardly worth it. Who is the more successful?

PS : AFC has never posted a loss and has contributed to the SANFL every one of its 15 years - pity one can't say the same for the PAPS.

Bit sensitive over at the shed today are we? Why would you lot care what Choco says??

You're quite right there - nobody should really give a flying fk what Choco says.

Your main sponsor doesn't - oh wait, yes he does. :)
 
Choco, Choco, Choco. Of course it's hard work for your marketing department. Every time they can score a media interview for you or your gimp captain, you talk about us. They work hard to get a sponsor to tip some $$$ into your team and you pi$$ him off.

Poor bastards.

That's why I'm laughing. Do you reckon thet ever sit him down & tell him to try & do at least 1 interview without talking about us?

Treadre = Gimp :D

Come on don't be silly jack, this is port power we are talking about. From the CEO down, they are just as jealous and bitter about the Crows as Chocco. It's just that Chocco, Tredrea and Cornes have been designated the public face of that bitterness/jeolousy. Meanwhile Triggy and co. show them how a professional club should operate by just going about our business and not getting involved in petty/borish schoolyard taunts. If you need no better example, think back to the 83 point massacre in Ports "dream" final.
 
"We've certainly selected our leaders on the players' voting and there's been lots of that going on,"

Wow, you're right Choco, that is cutting edge. :D
