Turner has also forgotten that Justin Westhoff, who played 12 out of 19 games last year and has been a best 22 player for the past decade, has also retired. That must also create some space.

In fairness it is an interesting exercise because if the selectors are going to fit Aliir, Fantasia, Jones, Georgiades and perhaps Bergmann into the side they will have to make some space. The exercise is fair enough but Turner has a couple of his calls wrong.

It is good territory to be in because if we do not have a heavy injury rate it should mean plenty of competition for spots in the best 22.

Did he? Oh dear. Maybe you should stop paying for his content then.
 
At least they didn't call him a star - still made front page of the online edition.

Former Port Adelaide and SANFL player Adam.Cockshell facing 44 deception charges
A former AFL and SANFL big man is facing more than 40 deception charges over the alleged theft of $17,000 from his employer.



Former AFL and SANFL big man Adam Cockshell has been charged with more than 40 fraud charges against an Adelaide contracting business.

Cockshell, 34, was facing 44 deception charges and a request for more than $17,000 in compensation for offences ranging from March 2017 to May 2018.

The 198cm big man played two games for Port Adelaide before a lengthy career in the SANFL where he played for Norwood, South Adelaide and Port Adelaide.

Ah, but even by browsing private and using an anti-paywall extension you're still lining the evil Murdoch coffers!
For the few cents they get via my odd foray to read a Port-related article, they are welcome to it.... Doesnt come from my pockets, and there are some very good articles on Port & Port players from time to time.

Played TWO games for PA lol
 
26x Games for Port Adelaide (2x at AFL level)
46x Games for Norwood.
54x Games for South Adelaide.

Yet, they lead with "former Port Adelaide player".

Classic.

To be fair, two AFL games is worth 126 SANFL games at the current exchange rate.

SAfNL is irrelevant so technically they are correct.

They only count A grade games.

More the point, if he was a Crows player the headline would be former AFL player.

Well that should even the ledger in the unfair media coverage wars - about time the carpet was lifted down there at Alberton!

Reece Homfray is now at West lakes as 2IC to Shuttleworth.

Loss for us and the Tiser. They only just put him in the top job as lead writer. Always gave us a good hearing I reckon.


I saw him holding up the sponsors banner in that piece about Brodie Smith the other day and thought maybe he was just on hand when a tumbleweed storm whipped through the ruins of West Lakes, but he's taken his 30 pieces of silver has he? Oily Olsen probably pulled a few strings :rolleyes:

Bloody health Reece has been giving us a great run for a couple of years. Crows couldn't have that continue.

Shuttlecock spun some s**t for the crows over the years but, he has lost control of the media agenda over the last couple, with all those self imposed stuff ups.
