I have been told that williams has said and it was in the other port media outlet [sunday mail] that he was begging for people to come to ports home game against the roos and he will hand out eggs.

I understand that both port and roos dont get many to their games but if port are the greatest team in the history of all sport they still cant be begging for people to see them play after 10 years in.

Why wont people go see the greatest team play :confused:

Anyone else see the sky writer the crows got for todays game? I thought he was spelling out 'crows home win' until i realised the last word was 'Loans'. Aren't they already the camry crows? Oh wait, they're a home loan organisation AND a football team? Convenient!

No luck needed just get some players off the injury list

so the lack of crowds dont bother you like it does the club

As far as i know 30,000 to a game doesn't bother the club at all. It's average and usually better then what 2 victorian clubs can pull to a game. Anything to get even more people to the game though is a bonus.

Another "sold out" Cow game with 43,000 people attending today...

For a team that supposedly has double the fans that Port do.

I just cant wait till the crows are 0-5 after 5 rounds, that'll be sweet.

They are on the decline just like port were in 2005 but just as we didn't realise yet either do they. Any team that has Doughty, Van Berlo, Perrie, Stevens and a couple others in it is definately being carried by their stars and none of these players would make our side, and there is probably more that I forgot.

Secondly, the crows have about 60% of the supporters in Adelaide and they sell about 50-60,000 tix every week if they let everyone in, yet we sell 30-40,000 every week, so what the hell is wrong with that????? Do the maths that aint that bad! I'd like to see what sort of crowd the Crows would get against the Kangaroos on an easter weekend. They'd probably struggle to sell out (which they should do easy) and then only 35-40,000 would probably show up so if we get 25,000 this week it'll be a great effort.

Port do this every year. It's a nice gesture. It's hard to get crowds on Easter Sunday, and considering we have to play on this day every year, we need to do something to get the crowds. But besides that, what the hell is wrong with it? It's Easter!

The stadium holds 52,000... The crowd was 42,000? How was it a sellout?
They sell it out almost every week but there is still a few season ticket holders who dont go and of course there is 8,000 Port SANFL members who didn't go

About 8000 cat 1 port power members who have no respect to the team that went in first and only exist because of us
Once again you prove you are clutching at straws. Your continual use of the term 'port power' is now comical, and truly evident of your lack of a good troll.

Him saying "port power" is comical yet you and your mates use 'clowns' and 'camry crows' and that is fine and dandy?
