A new coach? Not gonna happen, rightly or wrongly, they're all too good mates in the hierarchy down there.
If Cornes did anything that bad he'd be reported, they can't get away with anything these days.
On your side, some good signs especially from the young forwards, they made our defence (which I can't help pointing out is soft as butter) look stupid. If they can perform like that against better opposition they'll give you some real hope. Congrats on an encouraging game. |

im sorry about the crod figure
I got the 17,000 from the radio,then the paper said your figure
Mark williams i dont like.maybe a new coach is in order
Cornes,i called a dog for what he done to 1 of our players
tredrea i said shouldnt be captain(maybe in another thread)replacing primus(whom was a great player) |

Hmm, a mixed bag from you there Scarpi...
'but cornes is a dog'
What does this mean? You don't like him? Hardly a discussion point.
'williams has lost the plot'
He's not inspiring much confidence of late. I have my doubts about his ability to develop a really strong, mentally tough unit...still, Thompson and Eade were under the pump before their teams' sudden rise, so maybe...
'pathetic crowd of only 17,000 and there were a few tigers supporters'
The crowd was 20923. Pretty poor, but it would help if the AFL geniuses didn't allow a live telecast in Adelaide, bound to keep many away. I notice Richmond v. Melbourne the week before got 27000, how pathetic is that for 2 Melbourne teams?
'tredrea is past his used by date'
I doubt you've seen much of Port's games this year, Tredrea has actually been OK. It's been a long slow recovery from his knee injuries and he needs to do more over 4 quarters, but he's making a decent contribution.
No doubt a few players will go, and the experienced ones need to show more leadership, agreed. |

| if your so proud of that pathetic performance,freedirt...im just wondering if you went out and brought a copy of the 07 grand final yet??..so u can sit down and relive the performance?? the only merit to come out of the grand final for the power was 15 other teams fans view of port adelaide...chokers!! it amazing that 99% of the time no-one ever remember the loser's in a grand final..but your boys made sure that we will never forget who lost the 07 grand final because it was the worst preformance ever in a grand final....but i guess you know that because being the proud supporter that you are ,you'd have a copy..wouldnt ya??? |

| As results have shown this year we may have overachieved in 2007. Another way of looking at it could be we got worse in 2008 (which we have) and the rest of the AFL have kicked it up a notch. |

| The "at least we made it" line has some merit. The fact is Port outperformed 14 other teams in 07. Personally I'd much prefer my team to make the GF than not, regardless of the result. To say it's better to finish near the bottom and get draft picks is pathetic. |

"we may have got pumped in the 07 gf, but at least we had a team to barrack for."
WHEN??????? What, when they ran through the banner...oh yes that was a proud moment...lmfao..
Every time i hear the "atleast we made it" excuse.. i always imagine a port supporter stamping there feet ,sticking there tounge out ,going "but atleast we made it" lol u may aswell gone with this year's plan and be 14th and get the draft picks rather than being known for that disgraceful display they put up in the gf!!! but then again...."Port Adelaide..the biggest loser in AFL history" has a pretty good ring to it ,if you ask me ... maybe they could put that up at Alberton ... then u can always be proud of your 07 performance!! |

i for one do highly admit port overly achieved in 07,i didnt expect to make top 8, we were lucky enough to get as far as we did,this year we are ,well, under achieving ,seeing the young guys have gained experience from it and have failed to utilise it,
pearce,he's gone AWOL , thurstans WHO , only a few have consistantly put in the effort .and as for bigmouths,cornes,williams and tredders , i knew by media hype it certainly fires the opposition up enough to wreak havoc.!
there,hows that for the truth and i am (strikepro61) |

More like we had a nightmare draw given how teams are performing this season. Losing so many games early has to play mind games with you.
It could happen to any team ony year though *shrug*
Looks like we might lose Chad Cornes for 5 weeks. Firdt the broken finger, now irs knee cartilage.
Its definately not our year! |
