Get back to work, dont you have some patients to attend to ?

college teams are a law above everyone else, if the sprinklers had come on at a district club the game would have been cancelled, the home team would been credited with a loss & the club would have been fined or a suspended sentence of some sort, amateur house are soft when it comes to college & parkland clubs with their poor standards.

you guys are the first to cry to amateur house when something goes wrong against your team. camcorders are always good. you rent a oval with sh*t house changerooms in poor condition very seldom do they have hot water, maybe district clubs should turn off the hot water when you turn up to their clubrooms and it wont be long before amateur house hears about it. i'm hearing that a couple season back amateur house ventured to cbc and passed that sh*t hole fit for a finals game. no coaches box, no hot water.

CASH$$$HAVENS under 18s goin well too 'OUZU & co' must be a really good crop comin throu!!
i havent had much to do with them myself but there were a lot of peolple sayin Burridge wasnt the right man for the job! by the results his doin ok???

[ouzo666]

There is nothing stopping PAOC finding a ground and building a clubrooms, blaming the council is rubbish. There are other places to play. North Haven has moved once and its players built its first changerooms/clubrooms themselves so I am not following your excuses.

Joompin just because lance the waterboy says Burridge is good doesn't means its the truth. Besides I heard half of Nth Havens under 18's are on a bit of cash, namely Finney.

Reminder to all - This is a Forum it is here to stir people up and talk rubbish otherwise what's the point. Just ask Felch he has had to quit his job and defend Portland full time. It's like legal aid for people that can't afford a proper defence.

haha quit his job to defend portland
good one ouzo
about the 18's getting payed, i know 2 years ago havens used to give them beer cards for playing
was a good idea to get players to the club but moraley incorrect!!!
i dont think heaps of those blokes stayed around there!!

[Felch]

What part do you want me to elaborate on Stan? If you refer to the PAOC comment. I just found it hard to swallow that from the first bounce we were verbally attacked and snipered from behind by a team that has no coaches boxes, filthy change rooms, no club rooms, has limited running water but has sprinklers on the oval during the game, no hot water for showers, which was irrelevant because there was an electric current in the water and dog sh*t all over their oval, had the nerve to go on about us not deserving to even play them. I thought the divisions were based on the your performance from the previous year, ie. bottom 2 get relegated not whether your parents are Doctors or Lawyers. Please correct me if i am wrong.

PAOC are very very good, but beatable.

i've put up with enough rubbish from people not knowing what they are on about bad mouthing our club, although i agree that the sprinkler incident against north haven in round one was a farce, but the adelaide city council are responsible for the oval and facilities as they are for all parkland ovals. i was unaware that each club has to patrol their oval and ensure that people walking their dogs on it pick up their droppings. in my 10 years of playing in the amateur league, i think it is one of the best ovals to play on. plenty of room and rarely turns into a slop heap. the changerooms arent state of the art, but they are more spacious than some of the 'district' clubs, even those playing in divisions one and two. the snipping and verbal attacks that you speak of are two way streets my friend, and happen at every game with passionate supporters. i would challenge you to list a physical snipe from any of our games. we like to think that we generally play the ball hard, but fair. i do agree that we are very beatable. for any side to stay focussed for a whole year and win every game takes a huge effort, and for a club that has won 7 games in the past 3 years, you would think nigh on impossible.

as for the dribble that we have got all of these paid players this year, we do not pay anyone a cent, and i know this for a fact. the 7 or 8 old scholars who have come to the club this year have done so because they are sick of seeing us getting smashed each week and want to do something about it, as well as being sick of travelling each weekend. the biggest improvement however has been from our younger players who now have 2 or 3 years of a grade in them and are really stepping up, as well as some luck so far with injuries.

bring on saturday!

I dont really know what the reasons are you blokes dont have better facilities, and i dont really care. I will say this though, PAOC have been a D2/D3 club for a long time now - surely the club has tried to do something about the facilities. If they havent, they need their heads read.

Also, if you think we are going to believe that you are not 'paying' players, then you are 'dazed and confused'. Ryan Byrne does not play for nothing !!! I appreciate that you have improvement from younger blokes, but they have improved because alot of them have been pushed down a grade because of an influx of recruits. Nothing wrong with that at all, great recruiting by PAOC. But dont insult our intelligence by saying they are all playing for nothing, when i know that is not the case.

And Ouzo, i am back working part-time now thankyou. In fact, i got a call yesterday from Carl Williams legal team, they want me to join his appeal case

Ha ha, what can i say, im an optimist !!!

[Newman]

I'm backing you in felch, portland will come out and hit some bodies and the princesses will be running scared. Cocks on Byrne, Heff on Waltham, Farrelly on Nicholls cut their supply in the midfield and hurt them on the turnover, that is the way they will beat them.

Can i read that again Newman!!
The only chance they have is if they had Mr Marshall back in that side!!

Sorry mate dont know what happened there. Not sure Marshall would be much chop but if the had a strong focal point like a certain mulleted full forward from the magpies they would be certainties.

i am willing to bet my left nut that ryan byrne doesnt get paid. he plays for the same incentives as every other a grader. not everyone plays footy for money. there is a thing called mates and the love of the game. we have looked repeatedly into doing something about the changerooms, but getting a building permit through the adelaide city council is bloody hard - just look at the vic park shamozzle. roughly 10 years rob gerard was willing to pay for a grandstand to be built at park 9, but the fact that the acc wont give us a long term lease and the parklands building thing saw it die in the arse. if you have a better idea on where we can play that is in a central location, then i am all ears. regularly playing at the school isnt an option due to the whole drinking/swearing/fighting thing that goes along with mens footy. phos camden have been a div 1/2 club for a long time and their visitors changerooms are terrible. an under 12's side wouldnt even fit in there! from memory, the visitors changerooms at portland arent exactly spacious either...

May not be the largest but at least they are clean
not full of shit from the footy club or being used as a storage room and the hot water works!!!

haha
like you would know about Hot water in the changerooms
Your like a pom and dont shower!

[Felch]

We will just have to agree to disagree on the Byrne issue. And other players too. Anyway, like i said, good luck to you guys, great recruiting.

My issue with the changerooms is not really about the size of them - i agree, ours are a dog box, but they are always clean, tidy and have good, hot showers. To be honest I dont really have a huge issue with your rooms anyway, just said i reckon they are shocking - not just for visiting teams either, your guys must dislike them too. I never said i had any ideas for what you can do to fix it either, just made an observation.
If PAOC players are happy, then fair enough.

We are looking forward to Saturday. From what everyone keeps saying, the premiership cups already have 'PAOC' etched on them, so it will be good to see how we go against the 2008 premiers

hey fisty things must be different in the footy season I clearly remember the stench of rotting rubbish in the visitors during cricket season several years ago. was injured the times we have played footy there and didn't go into the rooms.
