The footy media has got so big that to remain relevant they mostly all talk just for the sake of it, which mostly results in them talking crap.

Now I know a lot on here love AFL 360 but I find it the biggest wank on Fox Footy.

You’ve got Whately who just gushes like a little kid and Robbo who mumbles as if he’s got a mouth full of beer nuts. Most of the time they just talk shit and then you’ve got the weekly guess who actually say nothing.
The gushing and the beer nuts used to be amusing but it’s getting old.

Edit. As for the weekly guest. It would be hard to say anything when he is being sprayed with beer nuts!

Rucci: "It's not Ken's fault - if you went to the Port Seminar at the start of the year it's obvious that the players aren't following the style"

Gold.
But but ...the seminaaaaar!!!

Oooo-kaaaaay. So whose fault is it that the players won't play the 'style'?

And would that style be 'the Port Adelaide way'?

Here's a clue. Port doesn't have the players to play whatever style it is Ken wants them to play. Regardless of the media fapping, Port's list is ordinary, except for the extraordinary jokes they recruited when they won the off season recruiting premiership.

Aaaaaah, never change Port, and Michelangelo.

A woman rang into AA and wanted to know what's wrong with Dixon. Rucci expert analysis was that he is being doubled teamed. Is he the only player that has 2 going up against him. Tex, Buddy, Kennedy etc.
He’s being double teamed

So Ken has lost the players?
It the only thing that makes sense.

We know the players are good enough, the club hasn't shut up about their recruiting.

And if the club thinks the players are good enough, but they keep losing, then it must be the coach.

You know, the coach they just signed to a what? four year deal?

Oh boy.

They were too hungover to go
That video of Powell Pepper wasted beyond belief is stunning.

I’m not sure why port are so avidly defending him, if there was a video of one of our players that maggoted i’d be calling for a nice long spell in the twos.

He was downright trollied, let alone the other outstanding accusations made against him.

Surely with their star studded forward line even if Dixon was being double teamed, others forwards should be dominating!

One would think... but that would require a coach who is actually capable of identifying that problem.

There’s a number of other tatics they could also employ like bringing dixion further upfield and playing a smaller forward/midfielder one out deep.

Or running numbers off the back of the square to flood the forward line when the ball hits the ground after a forward 50 entry.

It’s school boy stuff but Hinkley is too stubborn for that sort of logic
