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.

Now that Kern has "dead man walking" written all over him as our coach, I would like to throw open the Forum or a poll to ask questions such as "Who should be the next coach?" I think we all agree the Club must act decisively and ruthlessly. Does this rule out an untried coach?

Looking forward to Bowen Lockwood's long awaited comeback from back-related injury.

Perhaps the worst quarter I have seen from this club. An absolute disgrace. We can't be fit enough or there is disunity in the clubhouse.

Will we be wearing our old kit against Brisbane? I understood that from last year we would be doing so every time we played Brisbane. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Essendon for me. Sheedy always had a respect for Port Adelaide when he was coach and there were commonalities with our clubs going back 30 years. I love good football and great footballers whatever club they come from, especially young players coming through, but as a Port supporter I can't...

Anyone got any inside dope on the NTUA secret/surprise?

We'll play "loose". But I don't think we'll lose.

Favourite non-Port player.

Thirteenthmond? Richmond are the most over-rated club in the AFL. They rate themselves marginally more than the media does, seduced by a latent but largely unrequited fan base, and a club song. Hollow men.

I probably agree with all this.

Yes I have Collingwood's! And I was told to be quiet!

Read the post. I just don't think Victorian crowds are as loud and passionate as they perhaps might have been. It's you people who started pinging me for being a Port supporter. I have always thought Adelaide crowds have been louder than Victorian crowds, pound for pound. Call us feral or...

Still louder though, even under tarps!
