It's the Crows Home Showdown at Norwood this weekend
Most likely request wearing the PB's during our Home Showdown

There is no home Showdown
The AFL Executive handed the decision for Port to wear their Prison Bar jumper to one Victorian club. They then locked the doors, drew the curtains and hid under the bed. It remains to be seen what the changes in the AFL Executive will bring. Every thing favours Victorian clubs, so that now the stench is similar to a dogs filthy arse.

I’ve got to the point that it is now perfectly clear the current admin don’t care remotely about the PBs.
One game against the Crows, no further mentions of it, no updates for the future wearing, not even mentioned for AFLW.
Meanwhile we can wear the Indigenous 3 or 4 times, a bastardised ‘retro’ jumper or whatever is trendy at the time.
It seems teams like the Swans or Lions are allowed to wear their “heritage “ jumpers whenever they like. If our club had any interest in fighting for this they have any number of examples to state our case.

Oh they care. Just not in the way we want. They do the bare minimum to keep us at bay (and get some easy cash). They don't want us in PB's. If they could find a way to never wear or mention them, without completely alienating fans they would.
Every time the PB's are out, it's a reminder of when the club demanded success and got rid of those not any chance of getting us to it. That expectation is everything they don't want, so they will happily fold / not push for PB's whenever they are forced to look at it, and blame non-existent agreements or 'We tried, maybe next time, the 173rd time asking nicely behind closed doors, without rocking any boats will work'.

It's almost as if the Prison Bars have no place in the Kenny Hinkley Football Club.

A white panel on the back for the player's name would look pretty good on that.

Did they get Collingwood's permission to use that design?

Well thanks to Benny D we know the club under Koch have never been interested in pushing this nor honest with the members. Now confirmed as to why such a easy fight publicly to win has turned into a schmozzle where they are actively looking to sign it away so we never can wear it more than once. Every one of us should be deeply embarrassed to have ever believed the club genuinely were working towards being able to wear this for home games whenever we like in the future, no they want to tie the clubs hands forever and banish this top to the past, our own club leadership, who think they own the club.
Time to reload the original petition and the member led campaign.
Not right now though as we don't want it to Distract from the current pressure.

Same.
Dixon isn't really the PB's posterboy is he
Also, to be fair it's kinda more like ¹³3 vs ³⁵1
Dixon isn't a poster boy for anything pertaining to success & you are right with the flag count.
Saw a BiB jumper in the crowd at the Aus v India game, the more-sturt-blue-than-teal chevron matched the masses in their India shirts.
