NUFC, YES.
Did anyone else hear Ditts say that a local AFL club allegedly rigged its B&F so that they wouldn't have to pay the real winner a bonus which had been written into his contract?
Who won it? Thompson? Pretty much a lock I'd have thought. More consistent than Clangerfield.

The claim was it was port. Also claimed we had not paid our players this month.
Broadcast a club denial when they signed off.
I only heard the summing up on the way home, so didn't hear any commentary on it.

This is the same radio show that broadcast the Rutten injury forced retirement story saying they had strong sources despite the whole thing being made up by the guy who posted it on the Crows board

Aren't we lucky to have Port supporters like Dittmar in the media? o_O
Agreed. What a joke. I could understand cornesy saying it but tittmar would have a direct line to the club and should have known not to put such unsubstantiated trash out there

Cornesy actually told the public that Kane did in fact receive a bonus and the rumour is trash

The problem with Dittmar is that he really shouldn't be anywhere near a public forum like radio to give his opinion - what are his credentials to give his opinion more weight than anyone on this board, for instance? At least Stupid and Wrinkles played/coached the game at a high level.

So in order to make sure that he doesn't lose his plum gig, he has to make concessions to his overlords in order to keep the job that he fell into. Or in other words...

"I've sucked a lot of dick to get where I am today..." - C Dittmar

They were acting like the b and f thing was as big news as Melbournes tanking and the Tippett saga. I turned over due to it, that it wasn't even true after the comments they made about club integrity etc. shows them up as the same gutter tripe as the 5aa silly people. I have been listening to rush hour to avoid the others but after yesterday they have lost a,listener. At least I dontnhavento listen to shit music on 5aa.

The Advertsier (sic) managed to misspell Port Adelaide today. Reporting on the London game there is a photo of Hinkley and McCartney with a couple of text boxes in-set to name the teams. Headlining Port's team in bold teal is 'PORT ADELADIE'.

TBH I've often enjoyed Ditts... but perhaps he's become too cushy in the SA media and is slowly being assimilated by the morons.
I liked Dits on AA. Even when we were up and about he would criticize us but in a constructive way that was interesting to listen to, not a "OMG port powerz" MMM way.

He's changed a bit since calling Round 17, 2001 v Essendon on 7.

Would fit in very well on the Facebook page.
