[edit] User 202.6.138.34 - "Feral Port Power fans"

This is a biased POV opinion. Stop changing the article to say this. It is apparant to me that you are a Power hater. I dislike the Power also, but it is unfair to call them 'feral'. Seth Cohen 06:26, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Not a power hater mate, just like to give a more logical view. The 'working class' bit atm is just plain silly. We have just as many. Feral and bitter are good words to describe them. Watch them turn on their players as this season goes on.

[edit] Chairman

The chairman of the club IS Bill Sanders.

Steven Trigg (not Stephen) is the CEO.

[edit] Season Reviews

I have moved these back down the page a bit and put them under their own dedicated main heading. This is because at the top of the page they cluttered it too much and people would not want to read on. Only brief information should be at the top. Seth Cohen 11:12, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Someone is trying to alter history

Someone thought it was funny to enter the name 'Daniel Lawson' as Bronlow medalist for 2006-2009, as well as centre-half forward in the Team of the Decade (who I am pretty sure is meant to be Matty Robran). I removed the Bronlow Medal addition, but haven't fixed the team of the decade as I am not 100% sure if it is robran.

[edit] Ben Hart

He didn't play in the inaugural Crows match in 1991 - anyone got the official side? Rogerthat ^Talk 11:29, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Nope, Ben debuted in 1992. Jorcoga^ETC. 05:47, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2005 finishing position

Adelaide finished 2005 in 3rd position after the finals not 4th. It isn't based on which finals you play in and reversing of positions depending on win/loss ratio or anything as had been suggested. It is simply based on who finished higher on the ladder. Adelaide finished 1st, but failed to make the Grand Final, so they ended up finishing third as the highest placed non-Grand Finalist.

As evidence, take this from "The Pulse" in the Herald Sun (Tuesday September 12, 2006):

For those seeking last minute bragging rights or wondering about draft choices, Collingwood finished the season in seventh position and St. Kilda eighth. It's worked out on the basis of their ladder position after Round 22. The Pies were fifth after the home-and-away season and the Saints sixth.

The idea that was on the site would have had Collingwood eight because they lost their final against eighth place and so fell to eighth, with the bulldogs rising to fifth. This isn't correct. Seth Cohen 12:15, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Attention all vandalisers

Label us chokers all you want if it makes you happy - but just remember which team achieved back to back premierships, and which team once they reached top top top (04 premiership), they stopped stopped stopped, all the way to near bottom of the ladder.
