Not at all pleased about it, but if he's got the quals and a Port person doesn't, then play on.

If it's onwards and upwards I'm behind him, he's got a HUGE job to do.

Raises a point actually, I wonder why clubs aren't looking to encourage players to study finance type courses and develop them into business leaders to take over the running of the club? I'm a Chartered Accountant and would have loved the skills to play AFL and follow up by getting into the financial management and ultimately full management of an AFL club. What a cracking job it would be.

They have two Cornes' in their side and are suggesting one of those brothers as a future captain, then there should be no complaint about this.

Best man for the job in a franchise.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

Booney that maybe the case but these days running a AFL club is a business. And the top man really needs to be a good business man. I guess thats just a sign of the times.
