2021 Non-Crows AFL Discussion Part 1: we can have lots of fun!

[subaru]

In the short/medium term, this fight can only be won in a court of law. We have almost universal support across the competition, we have every sensible argument in the book on our side, but we still haven't been able to achieve the outcome we're after......

Hahahahaha
No you won’t win in court ... you have no $$$$

And your arguments are ridiculous


And you do not have anything even close to “universal” support

You just won the d/head trifecta

Pity he’s not as passionate about standing with the ambos, rolling out a vaccine, sentencing sexual predators, etc

Yep poor form, populist politics.

But why should such a contract exist?


Why are Collingwood part of the decision making process of what Port can wear in a game they are not playing in?

It’s pretty obvious isn’t it?

Imagine if a Tassie team wanted red yellow and navy hoops. Or a black with yellow sash. Collingwood are black and white in the AFL.

Well there are two answers

1) Port are monumentally stupid and entered into a contract that only hurts them

2) Port benefitted at the time the contract was signed and now are trying to have their cake and eat it too

Pick one

Cue the “why can’t we have both?” meme.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

So Port sign contracts and now want to go against them heard this one plenty of times before

North and Geelong are both Blue and White.

The designs of Port and Collingwood are different.

Plus Port are not changing their jumper full time. Just two games. They will never play Collingwood in it. Nor be referred to as the Magpies.



If Port wanted this jumper for all home games I would agree.

I still think there will be a change late next week.

Like the 2014 Final.

They are different shades of blue and both teams are okay with it. Like how us, Suns and Fitzroy/Brisbane are okay with it. Collingwood are not okay with it. It’s that simple.

 

[MrBarry]

Really enjoyed seeing Eddie rip into Port like this. They signed a contract, move on - why are they wanting special 'allowances' for the showdown.

Piss off. I literally cannot ****ing stand this mob.

Whenever a port supporter arks up about the prison bars, maybe remind them of this - wasnt their jumper for the first 32 years of their existance - and then was cast aside again and again up until the early 50s - dont believe me - check this out http://www.footyjumpers.com/portpre.htm

 

[MrBarry]

Maybe we should whip this bad boy out again for 'the heritage clash'.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

...and allow the Crows to wear the state jumper.

I'd be fine with both.

I get that Collingwood don't like it.

But why do the AFL have to rule in their favour?

What logic is there in Collingwood's brand being diminished with Port wearing that jumper for two games?


Matt Randall makes those comments. Vlad puts pressure on us to sack him. We do.


Was it 6 months later he was a Collingwood employee?

The great thing is they (Port) can’t really take any legal action given they owe $$$ to the AFL.

You seriously have to wonder about the intellect of the management of the PAFC - they signed a agreement to wear it once in their 150th year. They signed an agreement and now they don’t want to honour that agreement.

Seriously, they carry on like a drug addict. Always want more and more.

fu** em!

There was no once in the agreement. They agreed to wear it that year. They did not agree not to wear it in future years.

Yep, but wait until we have a team capable of beating them again. It wont be too long.

You might be, but Port wouldn’t be fine with it.

 

[MrBarry]

Yep, but wait until we have a team capable of beating them again. It wont be too long.

Will we be 'allowed' to though? Wasn't it Port Adelaide who had a total melt when they saw it?

8 days?

Nah don’t agree with this, let’s not be like port and change our jumper.

I can’t remember who had the strongest objection. Port, Rucci...anyone else?

I'm guessing they were all wheeled out with objections at some point.

It was mostly non-Port SANFL people.

Gary MacIntosh was one strong objector I remember.

That’s because that’s the base position without an agreement

You can keeping asking

And the AFL can keep saying no

Port began wearing black and white bars in 1902. 78 years before your franchise was created.
