Round 10 Winner

This week's winner by a clear cut margin was Warren Tredrea. Warren endeared himself to even less people than normal by stating in his column in The Advertiser ( what a sterling publication, it's a collection of brainless fuckwits mouthing off shit, and you wonder why the eastern seaboard laughs at South Australia ) that there should be a cap on the amount AFL clubs should be able to spend on their club and if they were to go over that amount they should be subject to a 'luxury tax', the proceeds of which would be distributed amongst the other clubs. In his article DWE ( Dick With Ears ) Tredrea makes such statements as

• " wealthy clubs such as Collingwood are dominating because of their ability to spend money freely on their football department. It gives them a massive leg-up ", well yes it does give them a benefit, but they have acquired that money through their hard work and smart decision making, so why shouldn't they benefit from it and why should under performing clubs , both on and off the field, be able to benefit from their opponents superior business acumen whilst they flounder like Kevin Foley at a press conference?


• "I like the fact that the league's concessions are designed for a club to win a flag every 17 years and that the onus is on them to recruit and trade well, make the right management decisions and get their off-field houses in order " . Well hang on, you bitch and moan about some clubs spending too much blahblah, but haven't these clubs merely managed as you stated to "make the right management decisions " and "get their off-field houses in order"? So they are doing the right thing by their club as you yourself agree and have made sound business decisions which have resulted in them acquiring a degree of wealth and security for their club, but they should then be punished for doing the right thing by their clubs and being competent management?


• "The rich clubs will still be able to keep spending but under the new arrangement there will be a catch - the poorer clubs also will benefit, enabling them to remain competitive. It is the best way forward for our great game ". So the poorer clubs can continue to be run by fuckarses in the knowledge they will be constantly bailed out. Go and get fucked. And " the best way forward for our great game "? Don't you mean the best way forward for Port Adelaide? They have proven that they are not able to sustain a profitable club so this is your way of keeping them afloat, reward the shitbricks. Again, go and get fucked. It's not the SANFL days when Port could bully the SANFL Commission into doing whatever they want, they are a small fish in a big pond. Port always thrived on the 'us versus them' ethos which served them well in the SANFL as they had enough supporters and sponsors to carry them through, but in the AFL these numbers are nowhere near enough to sustain a profitable enterprise, so they are choking on their own shit. Your arrogance and disdain for anyone not Port has alienated you from all other football followers, and maybe now you have realised that these people have long memories, we remember you treating us like shit on the bottom of a shoe.You have no chance of these people giving you any of their money,and never fucking will, so you want a handout not so cleverly disguised under the veil of a luxury tax. Go and get fucked.

As Nathan Bassett said recently - " The biggest test though, is Port, a team that right now is a financial drain on football in South Australia. From the outside Port appears to have a reasonable supporter base and 35,000 members, yet last week there was another example of the diminishing support of our AFL clubs, with just over 23,000 turning up to see both Port teams playing at AAMI Stadium. Why? ". It's as obvious as the cock on your forehead Warren, your 'supporters' can't even be bothered to turn up to watch the much vaunted 'One Port' launch and haven't been turning up in any numbers for years. So your fans don't go, you team is fucking shithouse ( the game against Gold Coast will be a fucken blockbuster ) and your off-field element can't make dollar fucking squat. Tough fucking shit, survive on your own or fuck off.

Or even better, open up your wallet ya tight cunt. You were one of the few premiership players when asked to donate cash who said no. Charity starts at home fuckwit, and being a Port "legend" you would have thought you would have put your hand in your pocket. You'd have to be on a decent quid in your burgeoning media career, fuck knows why though you have all the media savvy of Stephen Rowe. Why don't you make a few phone calls like you liked to pretend doing after you kicked a goal or bow at the crowd ya fucken arrogant showponey and see if that can bring in some cash.

So Warren Tredrea is this week's Chad Medal winner, it's been a long time coming for DWE and the contempt that he has shown the footballing world by his recent shit filled article put the head on the turd.
