If that reset is now, and yeah I can see it too if that exodus happens, they are in trouble financially.
And yeah tge scenario I suggested earlier is just kicking the "reset" can down the road. It is coming.
Their fickle supporter base won't go to games or actively support them through a similar period we are going through.
Wasting resources on China coupled with a rebuild period starting with a $10m debt position is scary.
We were somewhat lucky two of our rebuild years come during COVID. Coming out of COVID attendance /resource restrictions with some positivity and overall goodwill among supporters.

The melts among Tealsters will be fun if that happens.
His AFL coaching career hardly stellar. Sacked twice, old Norwood mate KT employing him.
Yeah he had success at Norwood. The first SANFL coach to bring AFL style footy to the league. Plus broke the salary cap?

This cannot be more emphasized. I think supporters and a Club may have dodged a hard bullet, where the rebuild would have hurt a lot more and felt a lot harder.
Due to the pandemic, the 2020,21 seasons have become a blur.
Footy is returning to a sense of normality after a few years.

So my suggestion is to folk right now, is be patient - with the staff and with the business.

In reality, these moments did cost the Power the Prelim. More so Duursma hatching an egg. He takes that mark and goals, Port go into HT with the lead and momentum into the 3rd.
Genuinely believed they could have won this prelim and then who knows Cats in a GF at the GABBA could have gone either way.
Hinkley and Port blew their best only significant chance of a flag since he coached them. His failure in 2020 Prelim, is what really cost him his coaching job.

Or stay home and cook decent food yourself.
Between the Covid restrictions, the lack of service and the prices that have escalated, going out for a meal is shit atm.
Reckon that ship has sailed. If what was suggested was true, in that Port were ready to don the No7 'when' (hahaha) they won the showdown, it surely would be too late and too embarrassing to do it now.
Essendon
Sorry once. I though he was at Melbourne when Craigy was there.

Yep, the CCP Xi Jinping-like propaganda machine would have been in full swing.

I mean wasn't Nicksy at port for nearly a decade and we accepted him?
The port people I know respect bass, probably prefer Schofield but wouldn't be totally against Bass, he's been an important guy there for a while.
Also their CEO is a Norwood guy too.

Oh let's pick over their carcass and target a couple of their players. That should make the round 23 showdown pretty exciting.
Could be total war!
BTW, who do you think is sleeping better. Putin or Hinkley?
I'm happy to see Carlton and st Kilda do well as I've always liked Ratten and never minded Voss
But can we put up with their fans?

Heard some comments from Lycett. **** me his is just such a big dumb idiot isn't he?
"We definitely think we can still make finals. It's not about how you start, it's about how you finish! I'd rather have good form at the end of the season."
Yes, well, that's nice. But you need to have won the games throughout the season to make finals you meathead. And the final sentence doesn't mean it's okay to shit the bed early, lose your first three games, and then head into 4 difficult weeks being 0-3.
They really eat up the clichés over in pufferland, don't they?
