Port Adelaides AFL playing list doesnt need sweeping changes to become competitive again, midfielder Ollie Wines says. College Jerseys China .The Power officially fell out of finals contention with Saturdays disappointing 67-point loss to Sydney, a result which has ramped up external pressure on the clubs list management strategy.But unlike some critics who believe an overhaul at Alberton is badly needed, Wines believes there is still a premiership within the current crop.In terms of the playing group, we all want to be together, Wines told reporters.We all work hard together and I dont think we want to break up.From my perspective, I think were in it together for the long run.Coach Ken Hinkley has previously admitted there may be changes beyond the usual natural attrition at the end of an AFL season, depending on how Port finishes off the year.While they are no longer the it club they once were, Wines believes the Power is still an appealing destination for quality players, if they choose to target experienced heads in the summer.Weve had a few blips along the radar in terms of results, but in terms of the club, I dont think theres a stronger club around, he said.I think weve got really good, solid values, were a really close club and in terms of off-field, everything associated with the club, the (Magpies in the SANFL) and the family culture of the club.Theres not a more accommodating club in the league.Port takes on Melbourne at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night. Fake College Football Jerseys . The giant slalom world champion slipped during her first run in the morning, landing on her back and then twisting forward before getting her leg caught in the protective material on the side of the slope. Cheap College Jerseys . 4 Villanova with a 96-68 drubbing on Monday.

The game of cricket is constantly evolving. This week, for instance, there was a choice of vastly contrasting Test matches from three different countries, whereas 40 years ago you were lucky if the last session of a days play was on television.Despite the drawn match at Sabina Park, theres a greater percentage of results in the modern game. Scoring rates are up, largely influenced by the need for haste in T20 cricket, where sixes soar over shorter boundaries, propelled by booming bats. Theres also less pad play, with the threat of the DRS hanging over batsmens heads like a poised guillotine.The game also keeps regenerating, with stars like Virat Kohli, Steven Smith, Joe Root and Kane Williamson stepping out of the shadows of retired masters. At the other end of the pitch, Mitchell Starc, Kagiso Rabada, R Ashwin and Yasir Shah are ensuring that pace and wily spinners continue to be a viable threat in the game.However, if you want a contrast to show how cricket and society have changed drastically, turn the clock back to 1975. It was a scorching summer in England, and perhaps the seasons madness can be blamed on excessive heat.The first indication this summer was different occurred when streaker Michael Angelow painted an amusing picture at Lords in just a pair of sneakers and socks. Having been induced by a bet, he hurdled the stumps at both ends, thankfully (for him) managing to clear the bails comfortably.Legendary broadcaster John Arlott was in the radio booth and I can imagine him describing the aftermath in his distinctive Basingstoke brogue: All in readiness now for the resumption of play… two balls remaining.Where streakers are now slapped with a life ban and hefty fines at many venues, Angelow encountered a judge with a sense of humour. On hearing that Angelow had embarked on his stunt for £20, the judge said: Well have that then, and there was no further punishment. Having survived a streaker at Lords, the Australians moved on to Headingley, assuming the madness would abate in the cooler climes of Yorkshire. Fake College Jerseys. We were mistaken but not before an enthralling Test match had unfolded over four days. On the penultimate evening, Australia required a further 225 runs with seven wickets in hand and opener Rick McCosker poised on 95, in sight of his first Test century.McCosker was thwarted, not by good bowling but a pitch that was dug up and had oil spilled on it by a London East End protest group, headed by a man named Peter Chappell. The group arranged a series of protests over London cab driver George Davis 20-year gaol sentence for armed robbery.The match was eventually abandoned because the nature of the pitch had been irreversibly changed. The teams then travelled to London for the final Test at The Oval.The night before the Test, my brother Gregs phone rang in his hotel room. A distinctive Cockney accent enquired: Peet-ur Chappell here. Could I get a couple of tickets for the Test match? Unfazed by his namesakes hijinks at Headingley, Greg replied: Peter, Im happy to get you tickets for the Test as long as you promise not to dig up the pitch.Peter kept his end of the bargain but a plain-clothes policeman told me over a drink after play that some copycats had tried to get under the covers and dig up the Oval pitch the previous evening. I then asked if Davis was actually guilty and the policeman explained there was no doubt in his mind. He then added that if Davis was freed, hed soon be back in gaol because he was a recidivist. Sure enough, Davis was set free in 1976 and two years later he was back in gaol after admitting to an armed bank robbery.Ah, the good old days! The 1950s musical comedy about cockney spivs was spot on with the hit song Fings Aint Wot They Used To Be. ' ' '
