Considering the number of you on this board, it seems Port supporters hang on our every word.

I spy with my little eye something beginning with BS. Anything to get some interest in Sunday's match methinks. Heck only 5,000 tickets have been sold....

Only 5000? thats pretty disappointing; but with Foxtel showing it live, and the standard small crowds for Wizard cup games could be the first game between us with a 50% full stadium. :eek:

As per above, the David Noble thing is irrelevant, although I don't agree with him being poached unless he had an out clause for an AFL appt. If there is a contract broken in this process, I think it's wrong, but I also think there were better options for us than Noble anyway.

I would think that most SANFL clubs and coaches would have an understanding, written or not, that the club will not stand in the way of any coach wanting to take up an AFL appointment. Without being able to name names off the top of my head, I think there's been several examples in the past decade.

It's not that good for the clubs, but it's a fact of life they have to deal with. You can't synchronise the AFL opportunity with the end of a contract and if coaches knew they were going to have to give up any chance of an AFL appointment for the duration they'd be less willing to sign, say, three year contracts.

Of course it works well for AFL clubs - they get to choose from current successful coaching staff as opposed to sacked and unemployed coaches.

Interesting.... a word often used to describe things that don't make any sense. It's also a polite way of saying someone is slightly off beam.

You're dead right, Choco is extremely interesting. Maybe the secret to his success is that the players don't understand him, as I sure as hell can't understand a word he says.

This is a thread analysing, in great detail, a flippant comment made by Port Adelaide's coach.

That is not the same as "baiting". Comments made by your coach about South Australia's most successful AFL club are a legitimate subject of discussion for the supporters of South Australia's most successful AFL club. :)

Yes, I remember you all saying that when he was first appointed, and poor old Cockroach Chicken/Collapsible Cars Cahill was unceremoniously dumped.

There were Port supporters right left and centre dumping their memberships along with the stolen cars. ;)

Even at the beginning of last year, there were those of the twisted faith knifing this newly elevated hero for past final performances.

Would he still have been interesting if St Kilda had kicked just 1 more goal in the prelim??

Well said. The sooner PAP supporters get over their inferiority complex the better. Half the success at the elite level, half the supporters, half the money, less than half the brains

:D Describing one man as 'more interesting' is another way of saying those being compared are about as inspiring as navel lint. Nevertheless...you may be right about him being off beam...thank god he's a teetotaller...but whatever works. He's bloody fantastic if you ask me - however, I may well be biased...

Mmm, or if St Kilda or the Kangas had kicked straight in GFs '97 and '98. What kind of argument is that macca??

There's not a scrap of inferiority complex here chief :D . Its funny, but I was just thinking the same of you lot... Anyways, given time we'll win more than our fair share, as it always has been and ever will be...

Sadly, in the showdown stakes, you lot would have to win every one for about 3 years just to catch up, wouldnt you?? Inferiority? Dont think.

Jakes - thats where we differ son. The AFC is all about winning the ultimate prize. Everything else is a secondary consideration. If you want to try and console yourself with the FACT that the Crows are clearly a more successful club at the elite level in winning the ultimate prize in both an ABSOLUTE and RELATIVE sense by your delusional thoughts then ago ahead my friend.

PS I forgot to mention - half the teeth also!
