I refuse to listen to SEN now, that is until the footy season starts again.  It's total pus.

That said, a recap of this interview would be appreciated.  TIA.

    I might be in the minority, but I like a 'vanilla flavoured' President.  He can do what needs to be done behind the scenes and let others, like PJ, Mahoney and Goody do the talking.  He's done that well so far and worked really well with all areas of the club.  We can't ask for much more than that.

    It was probably more boring than I expected.  And I didn't expect much.

    Well he did address the camp situation so you would have found that exciting.

    Yes, it was very diplomatically swept under the carpet...

    As you would expect or hope.  He played it all down as a non-event, somewhat unconvincingly I thought, and mumbled about there being a camp in January.  The word 'boot' was not mentioned in respect of that so some here will think that means the will be sitting around a camp fire singing kumbyah while toasting marshmallows.

    Oh good. I thought that negative supporters might bring it up after every loss we have.

    Guess that won't happen now. ;)

    The only thing he mentioned that i found interesting was, that PJ was put in place by the AFL, i always suspected this, but to hear it said from the Prez just shows how bad the club really was in 2013

    If we get thumped by Jeelong in Round 1 at home, it won’t just be Melbourne Supporters remembering. 

    Players had better win early games...

    How will we ever cope with other supporters giving us grief?

    Yes, and if we had done the bootcamp and lost the first round, no doubt supporters would be blaming the bootcamp for taking too much out of the players.   Damned if they do, damned if they don't.

    That's surprising I have heard Board members very adamantly deny that. They claim he was put forward by the AFL and they looked at him along with other candidates and the Board made its own decision in the end. 

    The AFL saying you either put PJ in or we cut off your money had absolutely nothing to do with the DEEcision.  :)

    Low expectations have been a mainstay of this club over the last decade or so.

    Other camp in January is the semi regular Maroochydore one.

    Nope , unions been involved and toastings out.
    Nothing more dangerous than throwing them at each other providing eye protection is supplied.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
