Sitting behind the goals and watching the Hawks players use the swirling breeze perfectly when kicking for goal also highlighted it, I still remember Suckling kicking a ball from 40, sitting it up to the left of the goal face and allowing the swirling breeze to bring it back. They knew things we didn't and it hurt us.
This is why every side should be given the chance to practice on the MCG at least half a dozen times a year, including at least once in August. One of the ways the AFL still is slanted in favour of the Vic. sides (and that's how they like it).

So was A. Jarman's bullshit story yesterday about Port leaving Alberton his 'strike three' (after the Alastair Clarkson to coach the Crows furphy and the "Just f--- the guts out of 'em with your big c---" atrocity), or do they give him three strikes every year?

I don't know how many times Port send people to watch games on the MCG but when I was there in the 2014 PF it was not difficult to pick it up from an observer's viewpoint. But I agree, teams should be able to practice on the MCG.

I wrote to triple m yesterday saying this. No reply.

I like to go by my theory that Jarman has a photo of the triplem boss in a compromising position.

In my up coming The New Arms Race - Mega facilities thread, you will see that WCE, Hawthorn and Geelong are building facilities with MCG dimension ovals for training. I think Freo's new $109m facility shared with Curtain Uni, will have MCG dimension oval or they have access to one away from the new facility and Essendon's two ovals at Tullamarine are the exact dimensions of MCG and Docklands ovals.

My mate and I stood in front of the Williams family stand at the family day and he noticed the boundary in front of the Quinn stand seemed to be 2 or 3 metres further in from the fence than normal. He asked if I knew why and the only logical explanation I could think of is that we have changed the dimension of Alberton to be the same as Adelaide Oval. If the oval surface area, both length and width allows us to have the exact dimension as AO, including the right angle of the curves, then why not do it?
I was under the impression that one of the first orders of business for the football department after the curtains closed on season 2013 was to repaint the lines at Alberton to be replicate Adelaide Oval, but I could have the dates wrong on that.

An ugly mind inside an ugly head. An unfunny buffoon.

the "people" on triple m this morning were talking about farts because shane warne said something about how girls shouldn't fart. some girl was talking about how farts are really funny because they're a noise that comes out of your bum. does anybody else want to start blowing shit up with me? if we hit every major news and radio station, all the media bigwigs, no good men will die, no Port men will die and the city will breathe easier. also we will wipe out a lot of crows ambassadors and board members. PM me for more info.

They are an embarrassment. They even make dumb and dumber on 5AA look good, and that's no mean feat.

A beautiful sheila dropping her guts is a turn off though

*Hey I'm sure vice versa also
The only difference is females tend to be more discreet. Seriously though that sounds like a conversation between my boys (8 and 10). I'd laugh it off, except these idiots end up being ambassadors for SA by default from interstate footy fans hearing them.

News Flash: Crows could be losing their Taj Mahal at West Lakes if they don't pay their rent to the SANFL.




...... oh wait, not only do the Crows not pay rent but the SANFL pays for all the upkeep. That must be comforting for the board of the Glenelg Football Club.

It's a made up person that Rowie can quote so he can get away with say anything he wants. It's almost always something negative about Port.
I'm pretty sure the AFC has had a meeting with it's 'ambassadors' and told them they need to dish some shit on Port or else they're not keeping up their end of the 'ambassador' arrangement and they'll be sacked. Have you noticed all the rubbish that has been coming out of the Adelaide media this week.
