* point 4. Crows deserve zilch.
Home Showdowns are fine, plus one other game of our choice EVERY YEAR starting in 2023.

Knowing our terrible leaders we will have sold the farm to wear them once off and mothballed forever after.
No doubt we'll agree not to sell them for retail purposes.

It would be oh so Koch & Co if we sold out for a one off deal in a dead rubber Showdown.
When I say "classic Port Adelaide design" what do you think of?

Once again the Club misses an opportunity - maybe have Erin in the PB's as our heritage strip............When I say "classic Port Adelaide design" what do you think of?

Oh that's right, the public really wanted more Teal.........
Going by the Facebook comments it seems the majority of our fan base not only adores Ken but it’s favourite strip is the teal based one. I feel like I don’t know this supporter base anymore.

Ummmmm. Is the transition to light blue complete now?
Yep, maybe we really are in the minority now. I don't feel the connection to this organisation any more.

I don't think this is right, the Facebook crowd are just vocal in both directions. People who post are people who have a strong opinion.
I can't remember the last person I spoke to in person who was pro Hinkley and when you go to games, PB jumpers are everywhere.
To be honest I just read the first few comments and it was stuff like “I love the teal, way better than silver”.
And the response to the sack Hinkley sticker seemed fairly pro Hinkley to me, the majority were disgusted by it, it definitely took me by surprise. I need to get off Facebook I think.

I think it's just vocal types personally.
There's also an obsession with decorum on social media. I'm seeing plenty of "well I agree Hinkley needs to be respectfully moved on at season's end but this VANDALISM is beyond the pale" type of posts.
People have been conditioned by the media to be against peaceful protest.
Absolutely, it has been a very grim season but it will be a huge positive of 2022 to finally get that bars in showdown deal sorted out for the round 23 showdown and beyond.

Maybe we start with both Showdowns?
Then, the Crows get narky about it being used in their home SD.
So.............. we offer to swap that game for a game of our choice every year
Success by stealth!!!

Going by the VFL with Southport and the Tiger teams, the AFL and Collingwood may not have cared what our women wear, or perhaps it is a different department that deals with the women's side of things and we might have gotten away with PB with the women, but nevertheless I wonder if we even submitted the PB for the women. If we didn't, piss weak.
I don't trust the club and its agreements with the AFL. Quite worried about it but on the other-hand I'm almost done with this AFL version of Port Adelaide, especially if the deal ****s us over again.
We laid down and allowed the snafl to turn us into amateurs in their dead league with the PB being devalued, we've been on a crusade of teal power thunder happy clapper get away from the black and white magpie stigma since '97, shunned every club legend and diehards in the process to then claw them back to then slap them all in the face by breaking traditions and keeping losers at the club, blamed supporters with expectations as being too spoilt to lower expectations to almost zero premierships, and being weak as piss on the field in both leagues. Wtf is this club? What does it want to be? I still reckon it doesn't know.
How can a club win a fight for the PB when it doesn't want it to replace the silver teal power rangers v gimmick jumper that Rucci claims is a symbol of our resilience for the crappy 2011/2012? Like, 36 flags isn't showing the resilience of our club??? **** me. **** 'em all.
Our problem, on and off the field, is that we are not total Port Adelaide, and choose not to be total Port Adelaide in every facet. Whilst it remains in such an incomplete state, all what we see unfolding will continue.
We were supposed to join this league to show that our culture was greater and successful anywhere ... and decided to change it to be like the softest clubs we loathed and laughed at.

They could put the women in whatever, no one really cares. Looks like they are just in the same as us anyway which is logical.
I bet it wasn't an option in their "survey"

The devil will be in the detail. I’d say we’ve compromised significantly in order to get a good news plug before the end of another wasted season

I thought this week would have been a good time to announce we’re wearing the bars in the Showdown.
Would have added some spice to this weeks match.

Yeah but Collingwood might not like it and that would put unfair pressure on Ken and Koch.
