Wont be an issue and if it is it'd be 20 times the issue down at Alberton with some of the ignorant morons in their leadership group (let alone their squad). Oh hang on, I just looked at the ladder...... :o

Why not, most of the Power squad has been doing it for years, obviously none of them felt like they were up to in September at the G last year. :lol:

Nathan could easily play in a side that's 20 goals better than Port (I probably could too), unfortunately there might be better opposition this year in the finals but Im very glad he's back to help our VFL side out as we've been struggling this year. Definately handy in case Lonegran, Hawkins and Mooney go down with injuries, adding depth to a squad can only be a good thing, and only a fool would suggest otherwise. :D

WEDGIE

its just jealousy from other fans that there clubs dont have the player of his un-tapped ability to utilise for another 10yrs
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

There's usually a reason that the ability is untapped.

If I make a comment about Geelong or its players,why then do you feel the need to make it a Port V Geelong argument?

Does this topic,or my comments have anything at all to do with Port Adelaide?

Because its fair to compare teams that play in the same competition. As both sides are the reigning the Grand Finalists it only makes sense to compare them in where they're both at and what they're doing right or wrong.
And experts constantly tell us you're only as good as you're last game, as this topic is about Nathan and Nathan's last game was against Port in the Grand Final when his team won by 119 points I think its a very relevent thing to discuss further.
Obvious I would have thought? :wink:

And in this case smaccer, it is an obvious one. AFL footy just wasn't that important to Nate. I hope this has changed or we should show him the door....or trade him to Sydney.
