Boak will not be traded, that's nothing more than bullshit.

I wasn't stirring shit Boon, The situation between Hartlett and Boak was quite serious so def don't be surprised if one of them is not at Alberton next year.

I think the situation between Cornes and Bassett is more of a concern. Those 2 blokes dont like wach other and egos are to big to get past it.

Is there anyone who likes Basset? (Besides Basset)

Just Oshea left.

I actually thought Colquhoun could play, that knee injury really slowed him down but really thought he had a bright future. That would seem a surprise to be honest. How he went before O'Shea is a mystery.

I think the emergence of Sam Gray as a similar type might have led to Colquhoun's delisting. Unlucky though.

Impey, Byrne-Jones and Bonner have all moved well ahead of him as small defender options. The return to the club of Krakouer at the time Muffins was coming back didn't help his cause either.

Shaun Hart moved from Director of coaching to Director of Academies. ( Aboriginal, Multicultural and Female ).

Fair demotion. With Hocking moved on, Hart moved out of the directors role there's change happening.

Not surprised he's been moved, a little surprised by the new role though. Sounds very manufactured.

[MW]

Odd move. Would of thought it be more important to get Ken better support in the coaches box first.

[am Bays]

Choco back in Director of Coaching role???

Choco to coach Para Hills

Alipate Carlile hangs up the boots. Had the unenviable job of being the full back in a side that copped some poundings in '10-'11-'12.

Well played, Robert.

[Booney]

ALIPATE CARLILE has brought his 167-game career to an end.

The Port Adelaide defender hangs up the boots after a year marred by injuries, which saw him manage just two AFL and three SANFL matches.

Over 11 seasons at the club, Carlile established himself as the Power’s premier key defender – often tasked with stopping jobs on the AFL’s elite forwards, with players like Buddy Franklin, Jonathan Brown, Jarryd Roughead and Jack Riewoldt often shadowed by the man in the #27 Power jumper.

With early-season wrist injury sidelining him after Round 2 and a torn posterior cruciate ligament ruling him out for the season, Carlile says the decision to retire was a sensible one.

“It’s been a bit disappointing – the injuries – but it’s helped me transition into life after football,” Carlile told portadelaidefc.com.au.

“The injury last year was painful, but I thought I’d be able to get back from it. Unfortunately I was chasing my tail all pre-season and in the end it was a straightforward decision for me.

“Kenny and I had a real honest chat about it and we both walked out the room smiling, because we both knew it was the right decision.”

Recruited in the 2005 national draft with pick 44, Carlile debuted in his inaugural year with the club and was named the Power’s best player under 21 in 2008.

Awarded his life membership of the club last year, Carlile’s growth from wide-eyed recruit to senior defender and, ultimately, a mentor to the Power’s new brood of backmen has seen his career come full circle.

Starting his career learning from the Power’s premiership full back Darryl Wakelin, and has spent the last years of his career mentoring players like Tom Clurey and Jack Hombsch.

“Port Adelaide gave me an opportunity back in 2005 and I’m really lucky to play my whole career at this club – to be a one-club player – have 100 games and my name on the locker, it’s all really significant to me,” Carlile said.

“It’s been a learning curve the whole way through, it’s been a great journey.

“I’ve spent a bit of time with Tommy Clurey, Jack Hombsch, Jacko in the early days when he was actually playing key back – but it’s been as much a learning experience for me as it has been for them I think.

“It’s been good watching them come through.”

Carlile plans to continue his involvement in football through working with multicultural programs, and is in the process of opening a second gym in the Adelaide CBD.

Let's just say that colquhoun's off field behaviour wasn't up to AFL standard, had his cards stamped along time ago, hence he was about the only one that didn't get a game this year.
