The bloke has enormous talent, but I really don't think he works hard enough.

Playing the way he does, he should find a lot more of the footy than what he gets. Whether his heart is not in it, or whether there is an emotional issue, or maybe even a niggling injury - I guess we'll find out in time why his effort just doesn't seem to be there. It's to me as if he doesn't have the Port Adelaide passion as do Chappy, Broges, Gray, Rodan, Dom for example.

I don't see a loss at all by him going........half back flanker role is probably the easiest role on the field, and can usually be covered by a forward or midfield type player. Sometimes absolute gems can be found there....McLeod & P Burgoyne as examples. Then we have the more traditional type HBF in Thomas, Salter could play there, Chad if he comes up, Hartlett if he comes good, Moore & Broadbent look to have great futures and could carve themselves a spot there.

Then we have the drafts & the trades.......

I realise he wouldn't have been on a huge salary, but what we save on him can be spent a lot better I feel.

I dont think anyone is questioning why the players are doing it I just think that GC are making some strange decision in terms of who they take.

Poor mans 'enforcer' one would think... tends to only be effective when the recipients are totally unaware!


It's a sad fact that people can comment on players without actually watching them.

I find a good judge of a footballer’s temperament and character is the effort they serve up after being dropped to the SANFL. I saw a Port v South game a few years ago that involved a demoted Krakour. He didn’t want to be there and played accordingly. Perhaps harshly I’ve never rated him.

fair call i think thats why most clubs are working hard to resign alot of players and the ones they dont want they offer them lest than there "value" to get them off the list. i think the power should have played MOTFLOP into form so they could have got rid of him aswell, atleast got something for him
