Mark Williams and Port part ways

[Strawb]

that is because the herald sun has a better write up on all football matches than that POS fish and chip wrapping over there.

[stun72]

Interesting to note the Herald Sun is providing more up to date coverage of the events than Adelaide Now - Rucci must really be cracking it !

Not sure that is very surprising - The Herald Sun seem to be far better/quicker at providing up to date coverage than Adelaide Now.

Im gonna miss his post match conferences, always been an entertainer I reckon.

I'm going to miss his 'stoushes' with Caroline Wilson...lol.

I haven't watched any footage - but I can only imagine how emotional it would be for him

[Mr Beefy]

Choco very emotional, Im actually finding it difficult to watch

Just like watching a power game?

now now mr beefy....are you home?

at work, why?

[jointman]

just seeing what you was up too...might catch up at the club for a few bevvies later tonite

[Magpiespower]

It's a shame it's come to this...

Messy situation could and should have been avoided at the end of last season.

Really felt for an understandably emotional Choco in that press conference.

Now let's see if the board are held accountable...

[Brodlach]

Laidley or Primus to take over?

Laidley the man for 2011?

It's a shame it's come to this but no point persisting if neither party has their heart in continuing. For about 4 seasons Port were close to the best team in the comp and but for some bad losses in home finals and a rampaging competitor in the Brisbane Lions they may have had a second flag.

Its been rumoured that Laidley is intending to leave at the end of this year to pursue a career in the corprate world (apparently already has employment lined up) in Victoria as his wife is reluctant to come here.

Is this coach resignation/sacking on a game day a first? You would have to think so, surely.

[ca]

He certainly wanted the big send off on Nationial TV. Channel 7 will milk it as well.

I would have thought the best replacement for Choco would be someone from outside the club, someone the playing group isn't already closely attached to that has new idea's and styles?

Heard from over the border that Brenton Sanderson is being earmarked for the job in 2011

[AFLflyer]

Im putting $50 on em tonight.

[Q.]

Im putting $50 on em tonight.

Why? Do they suddenly have Jono Brown and Nick Riewoldt up forward? They are no chance.






I better not have to eat those words, especially considering I'll be at the game tonight...

Yesterdays Herald Sun reported that Mark Thompson believes Sanderson would be a good replacement for him when the time comes. If that is correct you would think that the Geelong hierarchy would listen and try to stitch him up somehow.

just put 20 on them, footy is a funny game and surely they are due. people seem to step up in these situations. worth a little flutter, to make the game more interesting

[Zorro]

Agree with Sanderson. Laidley to go back to Melbourne next year and Chris Scott to take the reigns at West Coast.

Oh and the Crows will beat Freo in week one of the finals and then lose to the Bulldogs. I saw it all in my flash forward

Ditto here. As a Crows fan it's a win win situation.

[hottie]

Last year the appointment was handled terribly,looks like things have continued on this year.If by some miracle they win tonight,the players will say we did it for Choco.Laughable the way some footy clubs run,no wonder their in debt.

[CENTURION]

I have heard that Harold Wilson has put his hand up* for the job!
