someone from the Port community needs to be listening to these embarrassing outpourings, most probably our club legal and marketing teams, to rebut the most egregious BS on offer. seriously, the rest of us can safely tune out. there is less here than meets the eye. when was the last time you heard anythin at all insightful out of the mouths of one of these clowns?
It seems like this already happens. KT has been on the front foot many times, most recently about that moving from Alberton trash that Jars invented, providing rebuttals when appropriate. I think it's handled pretty well for the most part.

It is just unfortunate that our leaders have to continually monitor and correct the mis information spewing from the mouths of these media cretins in order to nip it in the bud before the bottom feeders are all spouting it as gospel.
It is quite funny though. Same pattern each time, AA or MMM. Crows Ambassador suggests rumour and states is as fact, always something which is negative about Port. After 30 mins Port officially come out and quash such rumour. I like the responsiveness of our club :) They show up those spiteful idiots for what they are.

I switched off listening after that whispers text came through; seriously it's a tool they use on a quiet day to invent callers. The problem with both AA and MMM is that they have free reign and know that rumour and gossip gets people talking; look at Jarman saying Clarkson was going to coach Adelaide if that's not the biggest give away he's a peanut nothing will. It's a same SEN doesn't broadcast into Adelaide anymore, at least they discuss sport and not gossip. Even old mate Rucci is as bad as the lot of them and uses research off these forums as his proof. Anyways, good luck Saturday, get through it with a clean injury sheet and see you all in round 2.

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.
But why is this week any different to any other week? It's been my experience that Rowey only talks crap when his lips move.

Plus every punter who downloaded it on iTunes for whatever reason
We've breathed new life into that very average, old song of theirs that probably shifted a combined total of 12 units between 1991 and March 2014. The Ferris Brothers should be paying us.

In the past 5 years we've doubled our market share to become the dominant South Australian sporting club, both internally and nationally; that's in the face of a prolonged slur campaign which has been ongoing for the better part of two decades, and intent to constrain us in every direction. They have one trick, they've shown their hand and if anything it's backfired by steeling our resolve and forming a culture of complacency in our closest competitor.

Soon enough this inequality in the media won't exist, as these dinosaurs are shuffled aside for a younger breed and the significance of the media platforms they share erode away beneath them. And even if it did, our unprecedented growth in support shows that state media bias counts for nought, so I wouldn't fear leaving the radio off lest you miss a couple of irrelevant monkeys flinging mud against a Teflon wall. KT's got this.

Absolutely - there will be more and more 'Port' people in the media moving forward, we're already seeing it now with Tredrea on Channel 9 and I think Cassisi has been doing some radio as well.

It gets even better though - Port are winning the school yard battle. The pendulum will continue to swing towards us as the opposition support literally dies off.
