Look how quickly they turned things around. Remember that last game of the season a few years ago with the draw ? Port would thump us now. How can they turn things around so easily and quickly whilst we go in reverse. Coach selection ? Culture ? List management ??

Even saints with Dunsun billings eji types

Just another club playing on the swings & roundabouts while we sit on the see-saw by ourselves.

Picking up players like Schulz and Matty White has been good for them. :clapping
-
White has been awesome for Port. Good on the bloke.
-
Mitch Farmer was great today. Another impact game
-
Oh you guys
Last year it was Essendon, before that the Dees, before that the Blues and now it is Ports turn as the yardstick
You guys are too much

You didn't support Schulz so don't mention Farmer.

White in particular must be laughing his arse off - first year away from Richmond and he not only gets to start but also finally gets to play in a win over Geelong.

Morton played in a grand final that tops Matty Whites win over Geelong
You got the ten minute abs on that one dude
-
Culture?
How can Essendon go through what the did last year and still be a better team than us.
We have poo cattle with a weak mentality that accepts losing.

Ima fan of Schultz. Always have been

who the f*** cares about Schultz. That is friggen ancient history.
The person who keeps on bringing him up NEEDS TO MOVE ON!!!!!!

Port have one of the best culture in the comp. don't accept mediocrity and have won 26 premierships . RFC have a rich history of failure

Why? Some people need to forget about bad moves made by the club during another regime.
We have enough bad moves being made by the current regime to discuss…. :banghead

How can Port Adelaide be down and out 2 years ago
No supporters going to games
Team terrible
Internal issues at the club
Now on top of the ladder
How ?
A true leader leading a group of people young and old
David Koch brought on new sponsors and promoted the club
Set standards for the club which were not negotiable .players included,
They have a lot of no name players playing terrific footy in a team environment
Us.well we will have yet another 5 plan no doubt
Anyone heard from Peggy ?
Peggy who ?
Honestly our football club is all about spin and 5 year plan combined with extensions of contracts
-
Yeah, I'm really starting to wish that we'd opted for Ken Hinkley instead of Dimwit. But then, like Billy Bob Thornton says in Bad Santa "Try wishing in one hand and crapping in the other, and see which fills up faster" :(
-
At the time many wanted hinkly
Not just now
-
At the time many wanted hinkly
Not just now
At the time I remember thinking I would have been happy with either of them. They both came from winning cultures as players and assistant coaches, and had a good pedigree. It's just a pity we can't climb into the ol' wayback machine and put it right.
-
I think the problem is more about culture and leadership of the club
What David Koch has achieved is superb
Everyone is on the same page
-
Go Port the yardstick of the flavour for this year
-
Hey have no culture issues like us
-
There players earn there games
Games aren't gifted like at Punt Rd
HUGE issue
-
I reckon all the teams outside the eight had threads like this going last year with RFC as the yardstick

Port backed their kids and built from within.
We didn't back our kids, let them rot at Coburg then give them a mickey mouse Coach to take care of them at VFL level which they are uncompetetive for whilst we draft in failed useless spastix from other clubs to take their spots who never get dropped.
Its a circus when you think about it.
-
Matt White was supposedly our best runner. He got to Port Adelaide and he is skimming the top 10 for running at Port. Its a massive indictment on our club. Its an indictment on our recruiting, on our fitness as a team and an indictment on the whole joint. We are indeed a circus.
They have dead set sold us a pup again. They are full of crap down there at Punt Road and they have been found out once again.
ITS TIME TO SAVE THE RICHMOND FOOTBALL CLUB! ITS TIME TO ACT!

Wouldn't want her to put on the boots against Geelong. Maybe if she was placed in the forward pocket..... :shh

Difference from Port & Tigers is ;D
Port plays football & the players are prepared to go one on one & back their teammate on winning his own ball
Richmond play keeping's off & are scared to loose the ball. When they do everyone stops & watches.
like a bunch of kids in a primary school yard.

bang Monk, read my my post in "underbelly topic"
he doesnt demand excellence like say a Buckley or Clarkson does.
Thats a fact. They dont fear him. Making jokes about Jake King and his tatts, Hoilui bringing him food. Players dont respect him cause they dont fear him or their position in the team.

Club 1870 jeeez they're even out doing our lowly club 80. When we don't make single final for another 30 years we might have club 2013 :cheers

No we'll still have club 80....it will just become a reference to our next flag instead of our last flag....

The major point of this topic is that the president has driven a winning culture through Port

Hinkley demands excellence. There's no disease at Port.
Hardwick talked about excellence early then slowly contracted tigeritis, compromised his own convictions and allowed mediocrity to rear its ugly head. Now he is as delusional as spud, wallet & every other failed coach that has started and ended their careers at Punt road.
Poor bastard, there's no hope for him now.

Had a look at the ladder lately BJ. Id suggest the story about White at Port is true and its an indictment on the state of our footy club.

Bo "You've got mail" Jangles knows everything about the inner workings of every club don't you know?

The comment was 6-7th best runner at port after being the best at richmond - I took it to mean endurance as matty White would nigh on be the quickest at port, he wasn't quite the quickest at Richmond but he was always top 3 in speed and top 2-3 in endurance, so hell of an athlete.

he'd be 4th/5th at richmond now so who cares. Difference is we don't run hard in matches and go into our shell.

It wasnt that long ago that Port couldnt get 20,000 to a home game.
For such a good club, their supporters only follow them when the goings very good.
And thats one thing Richmond has going for them over Port and most other clubs - loyal supporters. For now anyway.
-
If Port go off the rails can we just swap the thread title to the new yardstick instead of creating a new thread.
Thanks for considering guys

Your right.
The club is basking in the glow of passionate supporters/members. We are blinded by yellow & black but how about the next generation?
I made my kids support the tigers, I said, "Support the tigers or get out of my house!"
Over the years I've taken them to games wiping the tears from there eyes by quarter time.
But as I drove home I watched as there eyes widened whilst I told them tales of the glory days of giants of the game like Bartlett, Roach, the Ghost, Flea, Wood & Wiley, when Richmond was the biggest club in the land.
As they grew up I seen a sort of passion begin as my girls took a keen interest in the young strapping boys coming through. But flogging after flogging during the early years of Dimma's tenure wasn't the most enjoyable time for them either. Family days and player badges and photos with players plasted all over there walls shows that they may have some decent passion but it might be more about the players than the jumper, I'm not really sure. Poor kids haven't seen a lot of success.
How will my kids be when they have families?
I reckon grandpa will have to show the youngsters the way.
With the lack of success I don't think the passion is the same. My kids think I'm crazy the way I carry on and they're right. :lol

White doing the job again a long kick & kept running & gets it again & beaut goal on the run
How we let him go & keep the spuds. Even Shulzs is kicking goals again

They run in twos and threes, if we do run its solo, no one wants to help, that's the difference. Just quietly GWS will beat us based on what I have seen today, even their skill level is better than us and they have a fast running game, will run us off our feet.

l was watching that & noting it myself. They were running in waves of players & Hawthorn does it perfectly. Port were doing it as well. Richmond players have no flow, They are playing a old brand zone style of keeping it off from 10 years ago

actually while I am at it another noticeable comparison when watching class teams are their football smarts. Simple things like trusting a teammate to make a tackle while making sure you then mark up on his only disposal options. Time and time again we have three players trying to tackle someone only for the ball to pop out and it's a clear run into space for the opposition. Maybe it's just me but those sorts of situation are just plain common sense, is there a test for common sense at the draft camps?

No-one has common sense to hand out. Its how they are coached young & what they listen too & take in & how much family is involved. They must be determined, & prepared for torture & spewing up. Many of them play several different sports & things are just natural to them when it comes to skill levels & "awareness" "The key factor." On the field they are fit & flexible. Another important part is listening to trainers & medical staff injury & recovery. But you are on the ball with what your watching & describing & we simply don't do those things & that's because they are not desperate enough & expect the others to do the task for them. We have too many at the club who think because they have been their longer that they know better than the new arrivals when in real fact they never knew how to lead themselves. That's why Cotchin is the leader because he has it in him to lead but few who are prepared to follow. The same problem Chris Newman had. We must eradicate some players who think they are better than they are. Rewoldt, S. Edwards are our main offenders. If l was coaching they would have been gone 1st up. l would have sold Rewoldt to GWS for some of defender type players. l would have put Vickery at FF & Griffiths at CHF with the likes of Martin & Ellis around their feet.
l give you a example of a leader. Steve Wallis Snr from Footscray / Western Bulldogs. From Jnrs through to his whole career he played with the same determination l have seen from only some. l was his opponent several times & we had some good battles l had to smack him to get on top ;D

Who the stuff is Shulzs? And what do you mean even? He is leading the Coleman by 5-6 goals chief.
Pull your heads in or it's gonna get real in here. Smash all of ya
Go Port! Go Sarge! A great day, the return of long sleeve Schulz.

easy win again Tarkyn. Lockyer 5 ;D Dmac no goals nor in the best, maybe the Bairnsdale team spent too much time focusing on him ;D undefeated & we lost up there last year & they were playing very good up to this match. :gotigers
only Tiger side you can go too to expect a good game ;D

They're still above us on the ladder. I thought they would taper off as they did last year but didn't think it'd be so dramatic. What's been really interesting to me is that Wingard was one of the most dynamic forwards and was absolutely killing it for the first half of the year but now he seems to either of run out of gas or opposition has figured him out?

Front runners, sides that play like that don't win flags, swans freo and haw , premiership favs , play nothing like them

Front runners, sides that play like that don't win flags, swans freo and haw , premiership favs , play nothing like them
yet port have beaten freo hawthorn and geelong this yr and lost to sydney by 4 points in a game they really should have won imo.
to take it a bit further they have also beaten top 8 side ess. and lost narrowly to nm. and this week lost a close one to collingwood. in other words they have gone pretty well against every side in the 8 and won their share.
i reckon like us and a lot of sides they get hurt by not many injuries and like a lot of sides find out, lack of depth a few injuries and a form slump its hard to turn it around. they play their share of mediocre types imo. also think sides have had to put a bit of time into them and their game has been broken down a bit.
reckon depth is their biggest issue. they need another kpf to structure up properly as well. they have tried butcher and shaw with no luck yet and added harvey to their list last yr.. they dont really have any kpds in the wings apart from development type clurey. and like all sides could really do with a few more quality mids.
imo like most clubs they have a fair bit of list building still to do. and have their fair share of players to cut. their best 22 is pretty decent but most clubs will tell ya that. they arent a premiership threat and wont be unless they continue to build.

At least you're consistent craw :thumbsup

The only comparison that matters is that Poot have lost a shitload of games while the Tiges have won a shitload

Matt White only had 1 good year in about 8 at Richmond. The club was right to offload him.
