What’s the recovery time?
In what world are we are better team because of Rockliff?What's with all the Rocky hate? He cost us nothing and made us a better team. Ex AFL captain and clearance machine our young guys can learn from.
Some of the most unmemorable disposals sinceThis is good news as I see it. It shows that his decline in the second half the season was due to injury not simply age.
Averaged 32 disposals a game up to round 8 (34 if you exclude the game he got concussed). If he returns to that form after having his shoulder fixed then he's definitely beneficial to our team.
Probably did as much visable leadership on and off field as our Co CaptainsWhat's with all the Rocky hate? He cost us nothing and made us a better team. Ex AFL captain and clearance machine our young guys can learn from.
We're on the same page with Rocky and Kornes, but IMO Peter Burgoyne is in the top 10 players to ever pull on a Power guernsey. He is the type of player Wingard should've (and still might) become and the exact type of midfielder our current squad lacks*. Not his fault crazy Choco tried to turn him into a half back flanker...Some of the most unmemorable disposals sinceKane Cornesand Peter Burgoyne used to run around for us
This made me feel a lot better about Port Adelaides future. I've been looking at the negatives far too much. Thank you.So for Round 1 next year we could have Marshall instead of Sam Gray, Howard instead of Westhoff, Ladhams instead of Ryder, Garner instead of Broadbent and Drew instead of Rockliff. I'd much rather play that team all season and finish 12th than play last year's team all season and finish 8th. Pick a team to help us build and develop a squad capable of winning premierships, not just a team capable of scraping into finals.
Moving to Port Adelaide because you want to play finals is like moving to Tasmania because you like the warm weather.

6 weeks until he can run, can’t do contact until after Christmas.
It explains why he fell off a cliff after R8 in terms of his form.

Ryder, Dixon, Rockliff, Motlop, Watts etc. would be feeling so conned by this club.
We won’t be a destination club again for a while.
That group of players, conned by the club lol. I guess Jake Neade and Cam Hewett should feel the same way.Think the club would feel more conned by them. Ryder has had one very good season, a few OK ones. The rest have been massive disappointments.
I still hold out hope for watts was good before getting injured and i think mentally is in tune with his life and footy finally, hoping for a big 2020 from himThink the club would feel more conned by them. Ryder has had one very good season, a few OK ones. The rest have been massive disappointments.
Yea look the Hinkley effect but I'd rather have not bothered with any of those guys in hindsight.Ryder, Dixon, Rockliff, Motlop, Watts etc. would be feeling so conned by this club.

I’m not sure about that anymore.Ryder, Dixon, Rockliff, Motlop, Watts etc. would be feeling so conned by this club.

Gross.
we draft mostly country boys from around Australia to earn millions of dollars over a career, how many bleeding heart lefties do you imagine we have on our list?
Lol Motlop conned USRyder, Dixon, Rockliff, Motlop, Watts etc. would be feeling so conned by this club.
