Opinion Non-Crows AFL 5: Save Ken

[relapse]

Does anyone know if we have had any interest in Dunkley? Not sure why we haven’t tried to cut powwas lunch?

According to Mark Bickiey we didn't, Port have been chasing him for 12 months selling the idea to him of being in Adelaide with his partner.

More than likely as someone else said we've been focused on Rankine instead.

 

[GROTTO]

Not sure if this is rumour, or news - but... Kyle Hartigan to move to Saints?

St Kilda linked to Hawthorn free agent Kyle Hartigan: AFL trade news

"They're looking to beef up their key defensive stocks."

I might be in the minority, but I liked Hartigan.

Mind you his brain farts were epic.

I will enjoy the inevitable comparison over the years of Dawson and Rankine vs Dunkley and Rioli.

Most importantly is that what each Club paid should be another variable to add to the discussion.

I would be livid with the Crows if they ever paid what Port will end up paying to get those two their Club.

Apparently Rioli has a whole list of conditions attached to the deal on the table at West Coast (which is a massive red flag) whereas Port are offering more money and no conditions at all.

Listening to Rioli he's making it seem like he's coming here for a well paid holiday. At this point I would take Rankine any day of the week over Rioli especially if we're only paying 50-100k extra for Rankine.

His interview yesterday was a massive red flag for me. Basically admitting he he is moving for money and to be 'comfortable'

Not exactly a history to be paying a long Contract too ......Rioli has only played a full season once .....28 YO next year

I thought the same at first but will give him the benefit of doubt as he seemed uncomfortable being asked questions.
I like that he was pretty transparent and won’t knock him for it but the supporters will use it against him in a flash at the first sign of not being fit or a drop in form.

Port supporters after hearing him interviewed last night and realising that Port are offering him a massive deal

Rankine is worth double the salary of Rioli at least, if they are paying him close to the same they must be very desperate to help Kenny.

 

[WeedsMullet84]

Probably because we're focused on Rankine, and don't have the trade resources to achieve both.

We absolutely have the trade resources for both.

We absolutely have the trade resources for both.

We absolutely don't, unless you're assuming delusional trade values for our outgoing players (e.g. Crouch, Sholl, Frampton).

Of course we do, we have 2 first rounders and 2 second rounders over the next 2 years. This isn't another Vader moment is it?

It may be operating under the assumption those first rounders are worth more than dunkley.

So they'll have Rioli who, lets face it is very inconsistent.

And on the other flank, Orazio 'the other missing piece' Fantasia.

Good luck.

Considering how much time he spends being injured, I think referring to Fantasia as a missing piece is a spot on description of him.

 

[footy4ever]

So Kayo and not Foxtel? I hope it’s someone like Stan. Pay standard plan and then an extra $10 for sport or something like that. At least not spending just $25 to watch the footy

My kayo is $15 pr month via Telstra. What are other peops paying?

 

[footy4ever]

Yep they'll lose us if they drop the AFL.

Pulled out of Foxtel ages ago. Netflix Kayo Stan does it for me.

I pay $35 but that’s because we have three people accessing it.

.....might have to buy a radio!!!

The vision's not as good

 

[footy4ever]

Few years back I cancelled it for my folks (massive ordeal over the phone, stuff of nightmares), returned the box etc.…

Folks realized a few weeks later they were still deducting payments. Had to block them through the bank

Recent cancelling was a nightmare. They go out of there way to make it complicated and difficult. Back when, try simply swapping your account to a new address if you shift house. Jesus H Christ. I ended up telling them I would never deal with Foxtel again EVER, if I had to pay the ridiculous cancellation fee of old contract plus connection and activation of new account which way back when all amounted to be around $600. Plus there was a heap of hoohah about the box, which was archaic anyway. Ended up they waived the 'fees' but only after a heated conversation with a supervisor and me pointing out how much longterm money from me they would be missing out on. Jeez. Glad to be rid of them.

 

[footy4ever]

Still way too close to ours tbh

Do these figures include things like three-game memberships and dog memberships?

Not so if you consider we've been total shit for the past 3 yrs and Port have been winning all those premierships. Well, saying they're going to be winning all those premierships.

They've been in the premiership window for 3 yrs now (according to everyone else but me because I know that really they are shit), and all the cool-ade guzzling that's been going on, I'd have expected port to have gone past the crows re memberships.

 

[footy4ever]

This is exactly right. The common view is that 1080p is sufficient for TVs up to 50-odd inches, but 4K advised for 65" or more.
8K, if any normal program material ever becomes available, would be pointless for anything smaller than 85", I would have thought.

It's all to do with the solid angle subtended at the eye by the screen, and the eye's inherent resolution.

Wut? Speak English man.

 

[Bearded Clam]

I might be in the minority, but I liked Hartigan.

Mind you his brain farts were epic.

You used to cringe everytime he had the ball in his hands though..

It couldve ended up anywhere…

But he was a pretty decent 1v1 defender.

If we could clone a player out of both Harto and Frampton we’d be flipping laughing..

Orazio is always missing.
