[Chokito]

Also, Karl’s last PAFC game?

We should give some slack to any player who wants to leave daddy donuts. Who can blame them?

 

[EskimoPAFC]

All this "trash talk" reminds me of this...

 

[Enviable Tradition]

I'd love the tough talk if I was confident it would be backed up with 4 quarters of tough football.

When it's not its embarrassing

Self entitled and arrogant, when have I thought those adjectives about a football team....10 minutes into last year's Preliminary Final against the Western Bulldogs.

And following the prelim whenever anyone asked what they could have done to prepare better or perform like the game mattered

 

[Dandyyyy]

Those of you hoping we get flogged by the crows should be ******* ashamed of yourselves. Call yourself a port supporter? Nah, mate. You’re a traitor.

its funny that Ollie uses the very words most port supporters feel that their own team in guilty of. There is no better example of Ken and his merry bunch of brown nosers who have deflected any criticism of themselves and have down this for the better part of 10 years. Ollie can see the faults of the mob down the road but not those standing next to him. Its comical

im not ashamed because i can see exactly how corrupt our club is, Its just a shane its the supporters who have to give the club a kick up the backside because they cant see the truth that slaps them in the face.

 

[Alberton Proud]

All this tough talk from our players is pathetic. Fake, like Hinkley and Koch.

You just know it's going to backfire

Kenny is driving this absolutely no doubt

But doesn't have the kahunas to say it himself

Will hide behind the players in the aftermath

What a snake

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I absolutely want us to beat the tingles in Robbie's farewell game.

If I thought there was a chance losing might get us a new coach I might feel differently but that boat has sailed.

$100 to sit in the nosebleeds and watch The Brilliant Mind stare blankly as we get steamrolled

What a time to be alive

 

[Palpatine_Power]

Nothing wrong with a bit of smack talk, AFL players are too generic.

Who gives a toss? It's fired up the customers like nothing I've ever seen, so for that I think its worth it.

 

[ROBBBO]

Friendly reminder that we were >3 goals up halfway through the final term in round 3, and let them kick the last 4 goals to win, with important set shots missed inexplicably and a tank from Lachlan Murphy.

We also played Sam Mayes

 

[AFC AFeederClub]

port should win for a lot of reasons, if they win non of them have anything to do with ken hinkley. I can see the media on monday dressing Ken up as a mastermind resurecting the season from a certain bottom 4 finish, thats the logic they are using now? Also we had injuries like no other team has? its just complete propaganda, Sack Ken

 

[chiwigi]

General Admission sold out.

Crowd prediction: 37k.

 

[Stryke]

Robbies last game will get a lot through the gates.

Also, Karl’s last PAFC game?

Meh, I don't really give a s**t about players who choose to leave.

Yes, it is definitely an orchestrated thing and at the very least Hinkley must have rubber stamped it. Earlier in the week it was an Assistant Coach in Chad Cornes stirring the pot now it is two members of the leadership group in Wines and Jonas. I am not sure it achieves much other than to fire the opposition up and give them more incentive.

I do not have much time for trash talk myself as I would prefer we did our talking on the scoreboard. If you are going to tell the world how much you enjoy beating the opposition do it after you have beaten them, it is so much sweeter.

Reading through the comments thus far it appears that the majority of our supporters wish that players would stfu and get on with winning a game of footy.

Well done to Darcy Byrne -Jones on 150 AFL games.A great effort in the modern AFL game.
Darcy was in the media yesterday.Although he holds no grudge against any current or previous Crows players.He doesn't like the Adelaide Footy club.He must think there a plastic franchise,lol.

Yep could agree more. I want Hinckley gone, but any Port supporter who wants us to lose to the scum can go and get ****ed.

 

[Alberton Proud]

Standing ovation for Robbie at the 9 minute mark of each quarter so I've heard ?

 

[Adz2332]

so im guessing looking at the Robbie auctions that we are wearing our normal home guernsey. Not even the stealth ones etc

 

[afl2004]

We could lose the next 100 showdowns and I wouldn't care as long as I knew it equaled more flags

 

[Alberton Proud]

Dixon doubling down on the 'we hate the Crows' bravado just now

100% club orchestrated b.s.

They deserve to get beat

Has "we'll terrorize Lachie" written all over it

 

[Sneeky]

Whose idea was it to spew all this crap. Yes we hate them, but I have doubt we may even back it up.

Potential disaster on our hands
