Why try to predict the ladder at the halfway point of the season to correct the fact that you got it completely wrong at the start of the season only to get it probably wrong again?

It’s rumoured that David Granger passed away this afternoon. Does anyone have any news about this? Obviously I hope it’s not true.

I went and it was a low energy affair. Perhaps 200 seats available and only 125 members turned up. Mostly supportive of what the club was doing; no pitch forks at all. Koch was his usual slick self but mostly went through the motions; the Warrent Tredrea thing was a media beat up that I think...

I am honestly not bothered by this. It will give us a glimpse into the future. We are never going to win a premiership with the Hinkleyball/Dixon two dimensional game plan. Any improvement, if it comes, will come from the midfield supplying a more multi-dimensional forward line.

Does anyone know what was the rationale behind the AFL’s decision to discontinue Heritage Rounds?

Funny about that. I was going to say the same thing about Sydney!

Relax everyone. I understand that West Coast’s football manager Craig Vozzo, a Port man, is a likely candidate to step into KT’s shoes.

“Ringa Ringa” looks the goods. Just needs a big summer on the track and the gym and he’ll play round 1.

He can also moonlight as a stand up comedian in Chicago ....

LOL not going to happen. Redbullshit more like.

Same old same old. Concerned by the lack of skill and run.

I see in the Death Notices of the Tiser that David Baker, a serviceable ruckman for the Maggies in the early to mid- to late 1980s, has sadly passed away. Anybody have any memories of notable games he played or knew him personally?

Out: Hinkley In: This bloke.

Wondering whether anyone can help me out so I can win a bet with a West Adelaide / Crows supporter. He was startled when I said that Nick Stevens played a few games for West Adelaide in the SANFL before he was picked on debut for Port in the AFL, never to return to the lower level. He swears...

Wow. Don't live on this board, sorry.
