Surely a percentage of these pathetic ongoing "mistakes" are deliberate. I stopped buying the crowtiser a few years back because of its shocking bias in a couple of other subjects where they were constantly positive and/or empathetic to one side while being negative or downgrading to the other. Yet they never made anywhere near the mistakes with spelling and photos when reporting on these subjects, it seems to be reserved mainly for us and appears to be getting worse.

Look at the author Scott Gullan - wouldn't know where Adelaide was let alone how to spell it... there in old London town to follow the heroic win of the magnicient working class battlers from Western suburbs against the cash strapped, in crisis shambles of a club from the sleepy city of churches where nothing has happened for 50 years.
Somebody just told me we finished higher than Footscray last year...and Melbourne... I just got back from overseas I assumed Port hadn't won a game for 3 years.

... Port Adelaide, who would blame Mother Teresa for its on and off-field predicaments ...
This is coming from the same spanner who in his previous column claimed that the Cows should not be penalised for draft tampering and salary cap rorting because Tippex forced them to do it.

Personally I'd stick to blaming Mother Teresa for helping the spread of AIDS through Africa.

All they had to do is say no and don't feed the hungry hungry Tippo
That would require a CEO with at least half a brain and a board with integrity, both of which it is quite obvious the Cows are lacking.

Sounds as if the Corporation is back to the days pre-Blight when a group of senior players ruled the club. Blight's first action as coach was to sack those players and the rest, as they say, is history.

I'm not seeing us blame anyone outside our club. The board, coach under-performing players etc. We all know the snafl is responsible for rogering us so that's hardly news worthy, but who else are we blaming??

There are so many media attempts at "deflection" going on to draw attention from the blatant cheating and salary cap rorting from the cows its sickening.
Does someone at the cow paddock have photos of various media personalities enjoying coitus with their pet goats or something? ( I use the term "personalities" in its broadest possible sense )

The "Adelaide Old Boys" club is a very powerful thing.

Best to write nice things about the Camry's and not upset the apple cart.

Q. Why do you think their dumb arse supporters go nuts if anything is written that questions or dares criticise the corporation?

A. They just aren't used to it.

I think these guys practice cunninglinguist on their goats. Coitus is making the assumption that they may have a penis.

On more sensible matters I see Leigh Whicker came up for air to give 200% support for the Crows management who have obviously done nothing wrong. Unbelievable!

I wonder if the cows "old boys club" believe they are powerful enough to get away with this in front of the whole country? I know they cannot see outside their own pissant back yard but maybe on a national stage some of these buffoons will get their just deserts..
I hope AD makes them pay and pay large ..

Graham Cornes for one has spent the better part of the past month playing this down as a nothing incident, even going so far as to say the poor, innocent, naive Crows have been duped by the evil Kurt Tippett. Yes, this is all Kurt's fault apparently.

Either Cornes is really stupid, and is setting everyone up for a rude shock when the AFL finally hands down a punishment actually befitting the crime. Or he knows full well what's coming and is attempting to whip up a good dose of his usual "Victorian conspiracy" crap for when the shit eventually hits the fan. This going to be fun to watch.

.... Cornes is really stupid .......
Does that mean CRowie is really Cornes. o_O

This is most likely. If the Cows are punished for cheating, draft tampering and salary cap breaches it will definitely be a Victorian conspiracy.

i agree with you. the advertiser is aimed at the type of people who will find humour in spelling errors in Port Adelaide stories. they work on such a simple level that they will link the spelling error to our club even if it doesn't sound right to them. "hah.. port adelaide can't even get it right when they do get in the paper.." anything that makes us look bad makes us look bad to those people.

it's time we stop buying a paper that is not only not aimed as us but aimed at the enemy!!
