Port Adelaide "off season" discussion thread

[udogs01]

Not a Power fan, but sad that Primus will be remembered this way.
He had a great playing career and the Power faithful loved him but all that will be forgotten. Shame.

[Jim05]

Seems as though the players are avoiding a fair bit of the blame.
Yes Primus is average and some of the comittee/coaching staff have no idea but to me Port just have too many B grade footballers. They have too many players that are not up to SANFL standard let alone AFL standard.
Dont think there is a coach in the league who could get this mob much higher

Why is it Peter Rhodes fault

Isn't he the spud that recruits the duds?

That's Jason Cripps I think, Rhode is communications manager

All of them need to go.

The Port board on bigfooty want Rohde gone now. I thought he must of had some influence on recruiting.

If Port are serious about turning their club around, the should go as hard as they can to get either Malthouse or Roos !!

HBF, I just logged back on to put a thread up about Port and Malthouse. It's a logical conclusion but whether Port are serious enough about it will be the telling factor.

If Malthouse took the club over, I reckon they'd turn over 95% of their list in three years.

[Strawb]

Roos, Malthouse, Thompson should be short listed by the Power. If I was them I would even consider Ken Hinkley seriously the club needs to get a NON Port Person or a Non South Australian in there.

[Spargo]

Chris Scott must be very grateful to those behind coaching appointments at alberton.

[the joker]

Malthouse has stated. That with grandchildren and his family life, that he will never leave Melbourne again.
There's a lot of good assistants out there

[GWW]

Malthouse, Matthews, or Roos would be great.

However it aint gonna happen. By all means, the club should ask, but there's zero chance any of those will will coach the PAFC.

And seriously, why would they want to?

[the joker]

They won't be able to afford one of the big guns, they have to pay primus for next year still

[dedja]

Port have no money and any experienced coach available wouldn't even contemplate coming over here ... they are well and truly faarked.

Oh hang on, everything will be tickety-boo with the move to Adelaide Oval in 2014 ...

[Spargo]

Maybe Primus and Bamford could just "swap"?

Yep, the saviour is nigh. But death by implosion is nigh-er!

[Strawb]

If i was port I would go after Hinkley seriously he would be their best chance to drag them out of this spot they are in the whole club needs a clean out.

[dedja]

This bloke is onto it ...

[GWW]

Malthouse, Matthews, or Roos would be great.

Thats right, but their names will continue to be put forward until someone else is actually appointed.

Andrew Jarman doesn't have a coaching gig yet does he?
