Toast #BringBackTheBars - Our Heritage, Our History, Our Right! Part 2

[PA88]

McLean would have worn it anyway
Boulton would have worn it anyway
Duncanson would have worn it anyway

McLean yes.
Boulton and Duncanson no.

 

[TazD]

If we wear it in around 23 and they take 4 points from us, does that mean we will get a better draft pick?

They're more likely to strip draft picks if we miss the finals.

 

[TeeKray]

Let them do whatever they want. Standing up for ourselves over this issue would be a potential turning point in the club's hitherto underwhelming AFL story. Become a strong, ruthless club who commands respect off field and who knows, you might even see some of that feed into the on field side of things.

 

[John the Butcher]

Did Southport come to an agreement with the VFL Collingwood?

 

[Portwon]

Wear it.

Wear the consequences.

Live on your feet rather than die on your knees .

 

[Portology]

Perfectly played by AFL House and their proxies, no let's call them collaborators here on our [club!] board, dragging out a significant emotional distraction to divert attention from the Hinkley Issue, will we or won't we Bar Up, ever, now potentially chewing air time all the way to the start of season 2023.

Those who think this will ever happen: what on earth could we possibly offer Collingwood to would make it worth them giving up such a bargaining chip over AFL House?

 

[Grave Danger]

They're more likely to strip draft picks if we miss the finals.

Or not to rubber stamp a certain sacking.

 

[Willsy10]

Hahaha ffs we can’t do anything right this year.

So GWS can celebrate their "heritage", but we can't? I'd still like someone to explain to me why this is Collingwood's decision and not the AFL's.

Time for our Board to grow some caljones and push back.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Did I just hear on seven news that Collingwood were once again trying to block us wearing the PBs?

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Did I just hear on seven news that Collingwood were once again trying to block us wearing the PBs?

They didn't even need to try.

 

[melanChronic]

Classic

 

[bomberclifford]

Yawn.

 

[JimmyBC]

We should open a donut shop.

I feel a teal glaze

“It’s outrageous:” Port urged to wear prison bars in Showdown despite request reportedly denied

“There’s only one reason it gets knocked back, we understand that.”

[Ljc_86]

Wear it tomorrow on the G.

Let’s f***in go

 

[El_Scorcho]

Soft diplomacy didn't work again. I'm shocked to be sitting here.

 

[PA88]

Don't expect a drastic response by the club in Round 23 because from the club's perspective there is hope for 2023.

Personally, I don't think there is hope in 2023. I think the club has been duped and taken for a ride just to put ice on the campaign, and they have succeeded. I think that the only solution is a drastic response but the club will cop consequences.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

I am okay with the jumpers being denied in a shit show of a season caused by our incompetence

Jeeze now even Josh Jenkins and Andy Maher have shown more balls on this than our current administration.

 

[glitch01]

So does anyone here genuinely think we’d go against the decision and wear the PBs anyway?
Keep in mind we are a Club that were offended by a Sack Hinkley sign/sticker…..
Once again the Club has shown we are good corporate citizens.
We will continue to see other clubs celebrating their history whenever they feel like it while we use our”soft diplomacy “ skills and can’t even wear PBs once.

Did Southport come to an agreement with the VFL Collingwood?

Collingwood FC have no objection with the Southport Sharks wearing their traditional strip in the VFL competition.

Cool, thanks Collingwood media spokesperson. Now let Port Adelaide Football Club limited wear their traditional strip in the AFL competition.

 

[FourthTimeAround]

I think Ive reached a point of not caring over this anymore.

far too many things to worry about in this world without fighting another fight the current PAFC AFL will never win.

Why would that be?
