Oh PLEASE, you accuse Port supporters of selective reading. You'll grab at anything. Find me another SANFL club with a dedicated Football Operations Manager. That makes it unique.

For that to happen we will have to replace our Board. I believe that our Board are fully supportive of Elliott and Moore.

It is obvious that James Moore has been demoted slightly to Senior Football Manager with Neil Sanders as Junior Football Manager and Greg Edwards overseeing the lot which leave Glenn Elliott who is going nowhere to lessen his workload or concentrate more on the Commercial side of the North businesses.
Piss weak SANFL and the CLOWNS who run it.

Ken Applegarth at the Bay is another that comes to mind in the Football Operations role as does Kym Ireland at the Eagles and Duane Massey at Sturt - same role slightly different titles in some cases?

I understood that Centrals were the only club not to have one. But this role seems different to others, leader of a football operations team. Great opportunity - the footy without the rest of the crap.

Very interesting! Neil Rawlings, former Gepps Cross coach and assistant coach to Bamford with a fairly cluey brain in the business world. Could do a lot worse than put him in the job.

He's also one of the biggest boof heads I've ever met. Facts are the club is in far better shape than when he arrived.

To also suggest the efforts of one man have turned the ship into calmer waters would also be naive. Many, many people have been involved in the clubs fortunes looking increasingly better as the year has gone on. Sure, Edwards has played a part in that but if he is prepared to jump ship now, then let him go I say.
