still Carlton's runner? Thought I saw him on the bench then

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Injuries, then lose winnable games, then they will come for Ken.

Just like a shaken Coke bottle, Alberton will spill over.

Think it will be Ken's last season at Port... but after a losing final.

On the hunt for Clarkson?

 

[GROTTO]

On the hunt for Clarkson?

He will get some genuine mega offers.

Crows would be foolish to not at least explore.

Crows would be foolish to not at least explore.

Even if he doesn't want to coach.... Having him at your club to cut the #Q time oranges or hold the magnet board up will be worth serious $

Meanwhile the AFL are happy to accept plenty of money from betting companies, with endless advertising during games...

And during all this period, with all these gambling and drug addiction problems, he never ever bet on an AFL game.....

Yeah I believe in fairies

 

[ams4crows]

He didn't even address the umpire, that seemed like a bogus 50 against Petracca then

We've probably already spent all our pocket money on Burgess.

Not to mention why would he leave Melbourne?

 

[dogs105]

Thats how moderators should be on here lol.

Reported.

It was against Macdonald

Malthouse has Port missing the finals...

Can't see it myself.

May depend whether or not there is a hangover from their prelim smashing. Took 5 years and a list turnover after 119.

Im mean no harm

Im simply coming over to ask as Crows Members/Supporters whom have followed the club your lives
who would you rank as your top 4 Players of all time? Only reason I ask is I personally consider Goody to be elite if not one of Adelaide's best of all time

Where does he stack up. Id have Goodra at 1, Roo at 2, McLeod at 3 at Goody at 4.

Does Wayne Carey count? ;-) Dangerfield? Betts? Jarman? Bulk of their footy played elsewhere...

Instant gut response is McLeod, Jarman, Betts, Roo, Dangerfield…

 

[Mutineer]

For me

1. Riccuito
2. Modra
3. McLeod
4. Smart

Rehn unlucky

RIP Rodney Marsh.. passed away this morning.






one of the greats from an era when cricketers were real men.. not the nancy boys we now see in the Aussie cricket team who demand the coach be removed because he’s a little bit too hard on them…

Four of their first five games are interesting, Lions away, Showdown, Melbourne at home and Blues away with the Hawks at home as a "lock".

History suggests its not inconceivable they could lose all four of these. They will come for Ken.

i’m not one to believe in the afterlife.. but if there is a Heaven.. I can just picture Deaneus up there having a beer just inside the pearly gates entrance waiting for Rod Marsh to arrive and enter…

Just so he can sledge him about game three of the finals of the 80-81 world series cup and its controversial final delivery!..

he’d probably have a big banner all ready to unfold and hold up as Rodney walks through…

Deaneus would throw the beer underarm to Marsh.

Deaneus was a notorious 'Mankaderer' (much to the horror of some of his team mates) and as a result would have NO claim so such sledging.

It's hilarious to hear Malthouse call out Port for being flat track bullies.

The flag fancy Malthouse tips to miss the top eight in 2022

“The scoreboard says they kick at a lot of goals against a lot of weaker sides, the scoreboard doesn’t show that when they play a side switched on in finals, and it’s been proven.”

It's the stuff that many of us have been saying about Port for a while now, clearly the Vic media are now starting to see it for themselves.

Yep, I think the first few games will make or break their season. If they start to get belief they can play in another Prelim then I expect they could have a good season but as soon as it starts to look hard and confidence dips they will really fall away.

 

[ams4crows]

With Voss Carlton should know all the ins and outs surrounding Port's game plan, and with Carlton's improvement could actually be the game that ends Ken's career.

Good point raised, its massive. He will know what he needs to do. The fact that its an AWAY game too, helps Voss.
