harsh, very harsh

But fair, very fair.

Well he certainly had the rucking ability of one.

Dermott Brereton predicts Port Adelaide return to AFL’s top four

“Now that they’ve learned just how fragile it is in league football if you do take the finger off the pulse, I think they will go top four, I think they’ll climb back up.”

The Fox Footy commentator was less optimistic about the Crows’ chances after the loss of Malcolm Blight Medal winner Patrick Dangerfield, who moved to Geelong in the off-season, and the addition of new coach Don Pyke."

Sorry to disagree, but for the record, I have never said this whether it suited me or not.

Kane Cornes says Eddie Betts is worth $1M/season. Taking a leaf out of Clarko's book to pressure opposition salary cap.

I saw the headline and thought someone was surely taking the piss. When I realised it was Cornes that said it, I realised that it's going to be good having more Port people in the media to point the sword the other way. Clever stuff.

Definitely worth more than the Crows are paying him at present assuming it's still only around the $500k mark.

He's a key contributor in their wins, his ability, freak skill & marketing alone should put him in the top 3 earners on their list.

He picked us to finish 2nd to the Hawks last year and some people got in a tizzy that he didnt pick us over the Hawks.

I'll think more highly of Dermott when Wingard gets his own 30 minute highlights reel on Fox Footy, as Chad is at least Rioli's equal. Until then, Brereton is a campaigner

Story behind the AdelaideNow paywall - can anyone who's sold their soul to Rupert Murdoch tell us which radio station Angus will be working for? ta


Monfries to keep watchful eye on AFL

Talking to a crows customer yesterday who said "yeah Eddie is good but the Hawks knew how to stop him,
bashed him from pillar to post all game". umm the way TJ has baulked up, maybe feed Tommy some angry pills Rd2.

Really? Guess Wingard is even more dangerous as Hodgey actually used the post to slow him down....

.......to two goals in the next 5 minutes

Hodge doesn't play honest hard football. Hodge is an unpardonable scrotum who fails minimum standards.
My quoting of a customer and the angry pills comment left me open to your reposte.
I would never want any Port player to imitate Hodge. Tough hard footy played within the rules and spirt of the game
is a world away from Hodge's mo.

Nah, there is a back door. PM me

Where's the outrage on this board that was directed at Hooker earlier this week?

Heppell?

I believe it is wrong for any of the banned players to be working in the AFL media while serving a ban for drug cheating, Ryder and Monfries included.

I didn't have any outrage per se but my opinion is that if the Vic players can be supported by the media and other sources to work during their ban I want our 2 players to have the same advantage. I am pleased Gus has found an outlet, now I want Paddy to, hopefully with Aboriginal programs.
