R20 2008 Port v Sturt review

[GWW]

It's OK GWW, we all know it is Sturts underhanded way of getting an AFL team. Sturt Power, got a ring to it. Maybe Rick should have a go at coaching them, couldn't see him doing much worse.......

He's just doing his apprenticeship at the moment with Strut, we'll take him off your hands in a year or 2

[Rucciangelo]

It must hurt the traditional Port supporter...I'll rephrase that...the Port supporters who are Power supporters who have the choice to be either...that their AFL club is made from players from a number of SANFL/VFL/WAFL/QFL/NTFL or wherever clubs and that they have to pay a dividend to those clubs where the players come from.
Thanks!

[CUTTERMAN]

Doesn't change the fact that theres a few Double Blues supporters who follow the Power, i'm sure you guys love being reminded of that

Yes there are a few, Bentley, Pearce, Farmer, Thurstens and the not-so followers, Deluca, Thomson, Eckermann, Rischbeith. Apart from them I don't know of any.

Shit forgot one..one wine too many.
Big Fabs loves Foulberton, last year when Sturt came from 30 odd points down at 3/4 time he bombed a goal from about 45-50 out at the same end only from the other side.
And Les, I totally agree, they've stolen our colours and left them on their dashboard's for too long, just another case of STURT ENVY!!!!!!

Take our coach...that will be 8. We'll be the biggest shareholders for sure .

Oh you mean like transfer fees that all clubs including Sturt pay when recruiting a player from another club

It won't be long now Les...
The "Sturt Power" will be at home base at Adelaide Oval, playing in Double Blue...give it a couple of years!

Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse at AFL level, we could go back to the Double Blues from the early 90's

You blokes are on the same page right now if you keep going as you are!

[GWW]

Will take another 5 years and we're not about to hire someone like Kevin Higgins either

When you can't afford a decent coach you'll hire one of the same!

I'll put my hand up there, though I think 'follow' is waaay too strong a word. I only take a passing interest due to (a) the third of the team having Sturt links and (b) an unhealthy hatred of the Crows

Why else would you?
We should all remember that if it wasn't for Port being impatient and wanting to take over the world, we may have actually gotten a better model than what exists now as the AFL!

[GWW]

Yeah but we would have had to have waited for the year 2075 for it to happen

[topsywaldron]

Obviously one of those Sturt-barracking Power supporters, there's a few about you know

Bring back ParksidePhil!

I tried adding up the Port premierships in the bowling club on Saturday.

With Brown,Hodges,Delaney,Rizzonico,Fiacchi,Arnfield (not a player,I know) I wonder how many flags were in there.Oh,and the 1 Brodie Atkinson has got..

How many from this century, or were there only old guys ?
Centrals are really the only ones who can brag about premierships lately. The rest of us have been taking the scraps.

I heard a few of them have been in a good green paddock of late Booney? Hodges, Rizzonico, Brown & Fiacchi!!!!

If we take this a step further for a clean slate from 2000 onwards...
