Sick of Rucci

All discussions to do with the SANFL

Sick of Rucci

Postby sjt » Mon May 23, 2011 11:20 am

He's at it again. Another reason for the Crows and Powers poor form. It can't be just poor selection, game plan, player list etc. He's pushing the reserves line again. Despite the fact 7 of the bottom 9 teams have reserves, 2 of the top 8 don't. Four of the past fourteen premierships have been won by teams without Reserves. Rucci seems hell bent on destroying the SANFL. I'm sure if Port Magpies and the Power were doing better it wouldn't be an issue. I don't recall such a push in 2004. I wish he's get ******. :evil:

This is what happens when you have only one brand of newspaper in a capital city, the same regurgitated b/s over and over again.

It wont happen ever, even if the Crows and the Power demand it to be so - which they are not I might point out.

I'm sure I heard Demetriou or Adrian Anderson on the radio earlier in the year saying it wouldn't happen, as it's too costly?

I think it's partly a case of too much newspaper space to fill, too little material to work with. He goes back to the same old themes time and time again, and gives pathetic coverage to opposing viewpoints to his own.

No mention of the tattoed gentlemen that came over and actually did threaten violence. How odd. FWIW, I didn't hear Wedgie hurl any abuse or threaten anyone. He was swaddled in North colours, but Cornsey dresses like a bum. I paid $10 that day, I shouldn't be subjected to threats of violence, which was hurled by some of Cornsey's acquaintances.

Yes mate, it was me. Have a look at the Glenelg v North review thread it was all in there.

didnt like how cornesy described you as i think thats not on.

But i can see where he is coming from in regards to what you yelled when young bradley went down with a season ending injury.Injured players are not fair game and if my boy was the subject concerned (i.e.Bradley) i would have come down and had words with you. Maybe you thought it was funny but i bet even some of your own supporters thought it wasnt.
Ask yourself.What if it was your boy,or lets say Barry Robran when he went down after Matthews got him in that state game. How would you react?
GOOD footy supporters actually clap off an injured player whether he's on your side or not.

Do we want to go down the E.P.L. road and have all in brawls at the footy because of dumb comments like that? NO.

Wedgie made a flippant comment at the time of the incident and no-one knew (including Cornes) that the young man had broken his ankleat that time. It looked on first impression he had been badly crucnhed and winded with possible rib damage and he certainly didn't lay there writhing in pain clutching his leg. Had it been that obvious then Wedgie would not have yelled out what he did.

Cornes is pathetic if he has to resort to writing about that after mentioing on his radio show but choose to not report how Chad's mates followed him over looking for a fight! Talk about hypocrtical!
Piss weak SANFL and the CLOWNS who run it.

Now that West Coast are looking the goods again, they may calm down a bit. Freo are so injury riddled that they had 25 players to choose from on the weekend, so effectively they would be affecting an entire comp for the perceived benefit of three players. One of whom is Byron the Clanger King Schammer... perhaps it's Claremont behind this trying to get him out of their side and stop him coughing up games.

Screw you Rooch! I'm utterly convinced that he's one of the nuffies on Big Footy whining about the SANFL being a leech on them when in reality we've got entire footy clubs being handed less money than a hack like Justin Westhoff earns on his own.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

Have Freo suggested where they would get the other 19 players to make up their Reserves side if they had to field one on the weekend? The same issue would arise here. Teams like Collingwood top up their VFL side with players from outside the VFL comp (amateurs etc.), would Adelaide and Port be happy doing that or are they thinking they would just raid SANFL clubs? The latter would be a farce and unacceptable to most SANFL people I'd have thought.

he should go out and spend a week or 2 with the various SANFL clubs to see how hard they work with the limited amount of money they get paid and then should put in a article in the tiser so they can get more money from the awful to help the harder workers.
