I'm a bit happy that Koch didn't try and stick a Power guernsey on Bieber.

Maybe we can get a new club song from him.

"Power, power. power, pow-er.
Oh power, power, power, pow-er..."

Ehh If he agreed to wear it for a concert here or something he could of created a whole army of young female supporters.

For insightful football analysis, you can't go past 5AA's Stephen Rowe.

On page 54 of today's Monopoly times there is a feature story on comedian Bryan Dawe who is one half of the ABC's Clarke & Dawe comedy team. At the start of the article Dawey acknowledges his Port Adelaide heritage and how the Port is still part of him.
I went to Woodville High School with Bryan who was a pretty good footballer and made the State schoolboys side.
I thought it was touching the way that the Port is still a part of Bryan's life.

Why? Surely the exposure that would've generated would be priceless.

Exporsure, yes, but Bieber is a douche, or at least was a giant douche. Seems as if he is trying to change his persona but still a douche.

Where Are U Now is a sweet tune with one of the most creative video clips of the last few years.. *ducks head*

Yes, it's a soulless franchise, because all of the Crows customers come from an "allegiance" to an SANFL club other that Port. On the other hand, most Port Adelaide supporters are brought up with the heritage and loyalty from family members to support Port.

You cannot fully support two "masters", that's why I love the NTUS concept, so brilliant - who ever thought that up is a genius.

Kochie did while watching the INXS mini series. Thought it was a catchy song and could be trialed as a pre-bounce song.

NTUA idea didnt come from Kochie. It came from events manager Tara McLeod after her visit to a game of college sports in the US after 2013 season. Kochie being a high school class mate of Kirk Pengilly and a fan of the band from school days formed with the Farris brothers who went to the same school and formed a few bands before being renamed INXS - Kochie has been a fan of theirs since the 1970's so he obviously backed it enthusiastically.

Good to see him taking credit for it earlier this year on a Triple M or Fiveaa pregame interview...

He probably rubbed stamped it and got the band's backing. If he takes some credit thats ok but the original idea to use that song wasnt his.

Is this always a thing? I don't have Foxtel; I saw this on a highlights video.

Let's all accept reality: our chairman (he prefers 'president') did not invent the airplane, the Internet, not even the Port Adelaide Football Club. He doesn't leap tall buildings. He didn't discover America. He certainly didn't trudge along the Silk Road and swap philosophies with Kublai Khan. He's David Koch, Chairman PAFC, and he's merely human. Sorry, Kochie.

Good to hear one of the Essendon assistant coaches praising up Bassett big time on 5AA tonight. Crowey was a tad subdued

Sounded to me he was more jealous and would have liked him at the crows

Don't crowys' kids barrack for us and wrinkle's family too ? If so what a delicious irony hahaha

Don Pyke good at everything...brings a new meaning to personalised memberships.

Has there been any word on whether we'll be officially changing the name of the position to exactly that?

I don't know why, but it irks me when when he's referred to as Chairman and not President like McGuire, Brayshaw and co.

This time last year we were swamped with media with the crows showing off their shiny new toy. Fast forward 12 months and Ive hardly heard anything form or about the Don and I'm not someone who stays away from AA or a free advertiser.

Time will tell with Pyke but one things for sure he'll be given precious little time.
Coming from the WCE to the swamp will be like changing one polyester shirt for another only one size down.
If any early losses start to pile up he might find the shirt collar shrinking

He took his end of season break straight after the appointment didnt he?

Would love to see him interview Stephen C Rowe or Rucc on Clarke & Dawe
