So I've been made into a few memes lately, as you are all aware.
I am happy to cop the crap since we suck at the moment. But if personal shots are taken at me, I will defend myself.
Such as here...

Feel free to chime in, if you wanna back a brother up (but I think I handled things OK, without being too hypocritical)...

I'm sure it cut deep, Choki.

it was shit having Roo and Eddie commenting our game. I honestly just don't get it. OK the Vics hate us but Roo has even more reason to dig the boot in to satisfy his own aims.
Yep the club needs to take action on this. Major conflict of interest. Commentary these days has become so much more biased, disappointing. Pretty sure Roos ego will cause a big crash down the track.

nah im with finbarr on this. Roo isnt bad.
Would much rather him than tossers like Dermie, Tony Shaw, Gerard Healy and BT
I suggest you listen to the first quarter, he is backhanded as hell. If you are focussed on the game you may miss it.

Talk about Hobsons choice.

Nah **** that, I'd like Kochie to come out on Sunrise every Monday after we win in a PA hoodie and slag talk the losing team.
If we lose come out calling the other team a pack of cheating campaigners on national TV.
Make some snipes about the Crows and call Walsh a dickhead [SA only media slagging off Port dont have the media platform to do it to the whole nation like Sunrise].

Id actually watch Sunrise if he showed some back bone.

Is it just me that doesn't have a problem with Roos commentary?! I seriously think he isn't as bad as most Vic commentators. One thing I noticed with Roo is he at least talks about our players and often shines the spotlight on them positively. The McGuire & Co. are the problem usually fapping over superstars like Zac Tuohy. The hate must be very strong towards Port for McGuire if he openly barracks for the team he's supposed to hate.

I don't really mind him either. I think in this case in particular, a lot of the hatred towards him is perceived due to pre-conceived dislike.

I had to drop the kids somewhere and listened to Brayshaw and the other cock stains on MMM for the first 5 minutes of the 3rd quarter, my God I wanted throw the radio out of the car.

if you want to torture yourself tune into MMM after the rush hour and have a listen to "The Rub" with Brayshaw, Lyon, Dunstall, Brownless etc..
It is terrible. They all think they are comedians and spend the entire show dribbling shit and paying out each other.

Not much different than their commentary really.

My brother and his mate was out in the boat on saturday afternoon and commented about the MMM commentators, my brother not normally a violent person said he wanted to stab brayshaw in the face with a broken bottle.

NUFC, YES.
I don't care if Ricciuto commentates our games. He's not that bad. At least he knows our list. Was actually good to finally hear someone pump up Wingard's year so far as being "as good if not better than his 2013 AA year".
Dunstall opened the batting with "good to see Wingard finding some consistency".

Um

I know he means well but hearing Koch make excuses about us in the media can be a little cringe worthy, I thought his comments on Game Day about us having the 5th youngest list or whatever stat he reeled off might've been a one off but he just used the same line on AA.

Maybe if we were getting belted by the top most experienced teams that excuse might hold some weight but we've been schooled by 2 sides full of raw youngsters with a few duds that are lucky to be playing AFL.

It wasn't talent or experience that cost us those games against Brisbane & Carlton but effort, game style & a lack of self belief.

I normally do not complain but the back page headline of the Advertiser today is disgraceful. Port Adelaide eyes here but cannot see them doing it for the full forward from the other side of Port Rd.
