very poor result for any skinny 18 year olds playing their third league game, who get sent to a flank.

Beer/Insurance money would be the motivation wouldn't it?

Just what the competition needs - another Port has been thug.
Next he'll surface at Noarlunga with the King of has beens.

Maybe he could be aiming to break Grenville's record as the biggest man to play an SANFL game.

It would be great if he played after a summer on the fried food, and no AFL-style training any more. Then we could pick a team of huge blokes from the SANFL past to honour him. Finally, Ugo Colosante makes an all-star team!!!!

I reckon that would guarantee another year for Port in the doldrums. Its really not what they need!

Surely that's good for Port?
Quality player and if he's keen then good luck to him and the club

Agreed Hondo, a great player IMHO, will be a bonus for the SANFL and a bigger bonus to Port if true.
I look forward to seeing Choppy in the SANFL.

OH&S laws require that he couldn't play for any side other than Port. For this guy to be allowed to run out on the field on the opposite team to Nathan Krakouer, would be reckless endangerment.

I don't think he can make it at this level of competition anymore.....?
How many ex-AFL come back and are stars.....
Too old, too Slow. Poor Byron....

They've already played against each other (MCG this year) and Krakouer survived quite fine.

Cupido might not be the biggest player out there now!!

Between them as a curtain raiser for the Diadora cup they could do a pie eating comp or eat the donut off the string comp.

if picket is fair dinkum and has a real crack i think it will be great for the magpies to have him and no doubt a few blokes will be having a little look around before they put their head over the pill
