They are going silly over on the power board about it... of course it’s a massive conspiracy about the AFC getting Rucci sacked etc etc.. freedom of the press is gone blah, blah, blah..

What a bunch of hysterical morons..

Freedom of the press oh Lordy. That statement and Rucci’s Fox News style anti-Crows propaganda don’t go hand in hand. Freedom of the press assumes journalists have integrity and are interested in writing the truth and holding a corrupt government for instance to account. Rucci is just a Port fan spewing bile from the advertiser. That’s so laughable it’s actually ridiculous.

It's funny there are people who believe our club got Rucci sacked.

How would that even happen?

They are not a sponsor of ours and we have no direct link to The Advertiser at all. How does our club tell the Tiser to sack him?

Rucci cries that Fagan didn't return his call. Why does he need to? Yes under Trigg we would hand feed him stories. But those days are over.

If you are bad at your job you generally get sacked. The Age in Melbourne have broken more stories about Port and Adelaide in the last five years than Rucci.

Easy.

Fagan rings the Advertiser (or the Advertiser rings him) and intimates that the only reason why Adelaide isn’t giving them stories or feeding them info is because of Rucci...even though everyone knows it’s because you lot are control freaks about the narrative of bad situations (look at your injury list debacle), which is why you set up AFC Media.

The Advertiser, seeing declining reader numbers (even though for advertising engagement newspapers are still ranked above social media), acquiesces to Fagan’s demands and gets rid of Rucci.

Adelaide still doesn’t give the Advertiser stories/interviews, but now the sycophantic, card carrying ambassadors will only source information from the club website, driving garbage stories about 90k+ memberships where half are free e-memberships in some late attempt to pretend like you’re just as big as Richmond or Collingwood that don’t give away memberships.

That’s what your club really wants, after all. People to believe they are some huge behemoth when the reality is that nothing that is focused solely on Adelaide can ever become anything more than a medium sized enterprise.

Stalinist Russia can’t hold a candle to the liquidation tactics of the Pride of South Australia.

Would happily send you to a gulag.

At least people care enough to investigate the injury list debacle, or the pre-season camp story, or Taylor Walker's captaincy. That's what happens when you are an important club with lots of supporters.

Can't say the same for Port Adelaide and the lack of major sponsorship debacle, or the China actually makes no money debacle, or the Chinese sponsors suspending their support debacle, or anything to do with Travis Boak being a bit s**t.

But I think deep down you already knew no one cares about a minnow like Port Adelaide.

A little melodramatic don't you think?

Comparing a football club to a leader and regime that murdered an estimated 25 million people doesn't provide much credibility to your posting

Don't you have some heat maps to make?
 
How embarrassing! The Port board calling for the death penalty and whinging nothing will be done about the 'Crows' bum-slapper because it's the Crows and not Port - nek minnit it's a PORT SUPPORTER LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

But wait! The media and the AFC have colluded to somehow get the Crows supporter to say he's really a Port supporter and to actually fake a phone call to MMM where he admits he was a Port supporter at the game on a borrowed ticket.

What's Kane and Rootch got to say about the nasty AFC and all that collusion?

Maybe should speak up about the village idiot Power supporters who actually formulate and believe that idiocy.
 
do we really care what a minnow club and its minnow supporters think? port are always second fiddle and always irrelevant. surprised most of the country know they're a team in the AFL to be honest..

Why does our club, or yours have to feed Rucci a story? He is a journalist. Why not go to independent sources and do his own research rather than wait for his phone to ring with Fagan or KT to spoon feed him

Even you guys have effectively frozen him out. When was the last time Rucci broke a Port story that was not a pro China advertisement? The journos at the The Age have broken more stories about both our clubs than Rucci has in the past five years.

All he does is reword official pressers and add his opinion. That is why he lost his job. In an age where we all have access to every press conference he adds no value. He is sooking about our club gettiing him sacked because he does not want to admit how poor an actual journalist he is.

Just on China. How do you reconcile 10,600 people at the game with two thirds of the seats visually empty on TV and Old Gil saying that was because they were all in the hospitality tents. However said hospitality facilities only have a maximum capacity of 550 people according to an official venue map.

That kind of lying is straight out of Stalinist Russia.

Dittmar mentioned on MMM last week that he had issues with Rucci printing mistruths about him a while back and he contacted the advertiser to get a retraction. Rucci's motto is "never let the truth get in the way of a good story" or if it involves Port "make it sound good regardless".

Mmmmm... Buried deep beneath Anus’s butttthurt inferiority complex is actually a dingleberry of truth.

The club has changed their media strategy since Fagan and Roo. They’re a lot less of an open book now. The unfortunate offshoot of this is that when you deny the media, you often deny the fans too.

The Advertiser, seeing declining reader numbers (even though for advertising engagement newspapers are still ranked above social media), acquiesces to Fagan’s demands and gets rid of Rucci.

News Corp can do whatever they like, and they will, as long as they sell papers. So what’s your point? You really don’t have one, do you?

That’s what your club really wants, after all. People to believe they are some huge behemoth when the reality is that nothing that is focused solely on Adelaide can ever become anything more than a medium sized enterprise.

Again with the size thing? Get a pump or something bro. This is getting pathetic.

Olive branch: the one advantage of being small and insignificant is that you’ve never had anything close in this state to a Michelangelo Rucci systematically writing s**t about you, year after year, over a period of decades. You wouldn’t know what to do with yourselves if you did.

The proof of this is the SPP incident. At the press conference, you were grilled by veteran, seasoned journos who don’t cover football, and your club squealed at the treatment like a kitten with its foot stuck in a bath.

Stalinist Russia can’t hold a candle to the liquidation tactics of the Pride of South Australia.

Ha! You should be loving Stalinism. It’s the AFL’s communist regime that keeps parasitic, economically unviable clubs like yours afloat.
