They do look good in April and May.

They were good last year when they lost 5 in a row after round 5.

Port remind me a bit of the Bombers, start the season really well and taper of as the season progresses.

Yeah Port were arse when they beat Collingwood in finals and then played a quality game against Geelong in the semi.

Port are the South Australian Collingwood. Supporting Port is the equivalent of supporting Collingwood.

I am an illiterate, disadvantaged port power following tiger fan who has always enjoyed the way matt white has sprinted on and off the interchange bench.
I believe he is bringing Tiger and Port fans closer together despite the unpleasantness in this thread. I would hope they play for the "Matt Whites, he's alright Cup" this year when they line up against each other with the lightning boot awarded to the fastest interchange

Matthew White 13 goals in 2014, playing as the sub in half his games.

Dustin Martin and Trent Cotchin have kicked a combined 15 goals.

DM and TC on a combined 1 million dollars a season more than Whitey. ( just a guess)

A little unfair as White is neither tagged nor has he played off half back this year.  I agree that we have missed his run and goal kicking though. The problem with getting rid of him is that we never replaced him with an upgrade.  All we did is just lose him.

Martin deserves a fair bit of criticism because he has definitely underperformed this year to date. However the comparison between Cotchin and White is ridiculous. Cotchin has carried a team full of passengers for over a month and is required to do everything from winning the contest, setting up hand ball chains, and driving the ball i50, only to have to run back and get the ball out of the d50

White is averaging 16.4 possessions where 5 of them are contested. Cotchin is averaging 25.7 where 11 are contested. White doesn't get tagged like Cotchin does either.

I'm bummed White left RFC as well. Believe me, with the direction the game is taking I thought it was crap we let him go. But let's not go over board and suggest that he is better value than Cotchin.

That to me is the crux of the issue.

If we had as a minimum a natural replacement but preferably an upgrade then the discussion becomes a mute point

Simply fact is we didn't/haven't hence, why we keep discussing it

Club erred not so much in not matching the Port offer but by not replacing him with a "like for like"
