Port Adelaide's plan to use jumpers similar to Collingwood

[parano1a]

And it doesn't say anything about not selling black and white or Magpies branded kit.

The AFL has to approve the retail sale of any item with an AFL logo on it.

Not an argument.

Of course not, I wasn't making one.

 

[Tim Evans Beard]

Of course not, neither was the post you were responding to.

The more Victorians act like dicks the more those VFL flags count for less.

Just like the old power rankings and those poor magic beans.

It certainly attempted to. It even made two numbered points. Unfortunately for that poster they forgot to discuss the topic at hand, resulting in an instant loss.

It certainly did not. It made two numbered statements. Fortunately you continue to not discuss the topic at hand, contributing to the stream of consciousness that is this thread - resulting in an instant craving of a cafe au lait from a new coffee cart.

Make Ports an all black Guernsey all the way around with white numbers and the 6 white thin pylons on the front and it's not the same as a white jumper with black stripes aka Collingwood.

Not really sure what you're talking about anymore, to be honest with you mate.

You haven’t been sure about anything you’ve been talking about on here at anytime, to be honest with you mate.

Why have North Melbourne been able to have an identical guernsey to Collingwood?

They don't.

Is it because they have a different colour?

Yes.

If that's the case then why can Geelong and Carlton use the same colours?

They don't.

Or is it because the design of Port's is arguably somewhat vaguely similar to Collingwood?

With the same colours, yes.

If that's the case then why can Richmond and Essendon have identical designs?

Different colours.

Did Melbourne have to get clearance from Carlton to use their guernsey with a monogram?

Not as far as I know.

Surely Carlton can stop other teams from using a monogram if Eddie can stop teams from using something that is not even close to Collingwood's.

Eddie can't do anything. The AFL made the decision.

So then the AFL was perfectly fine with Port selling the 2013 Prison Bar top, the 2014 Finals one... so it mustn't have broken the agreement then.

Also, Port Adelaide Magpies gear wouldn't have an AFL logo on it...

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Thats not what the agreement says though. It says that Collingwood won't object to Port being allowed to wear it at home in Heritage rounds. And Port won't develop a retail line of those Heritage jumpers.

heritage rounds don’t exist anymore? So until the AFL amend the agreement you wear the jersey.

thats my lamens view

Black, White.... Prison Bars. See we got there in the end for our little Hirdy Loving mate.

I wonder whether GWS were told to use Charcoal instead of black?

Find the clause where it says they can't wear the PBs more often?

And it doesn't say anything about not selling black and white or Magpies branded kit. The 2007 says Port won't create a retail line of black and white striped Heritage jumpers.

It was read out by Cranky kornes on the footy show. The PB's can be worn in Heritage Round each year. Singular. And if there is no heritage round the clause is null and void, ie no PBs at all. Unless the pies agree to ait as a one-off. That doesnt seem likely to ever happen again after all this kerfuffle.
Kornes was arguing showdown was heritage round. Its clearly not, and of course Showdown happens twice a year.

And yes i agree the 2007 agreement does say no PB merch. I thought it extended to the magpie. Fair enough really, Power arent magpies so why brand merch with the Collingwood mascot? Im assuming PAFC are going to say the b&w and magpies stuff is SANFL merch. Cheekily pushing the envelope. Like donning the PBs for the song. Stirring the pot to keep the fans happy. Effectively alienating HQ, not sure thats good long term strategic planning.

It doesn't matter the AFL have no intention of letting us wear the prison bars so there is nothing to lose. The AFL will fold to Collingwood every time and this whole thing is just saying to the AFL there are more clubs in the AFL than the big 4 Melbourne clubs who get everything to maximise their income and then have the gall to turn around and say we economically support you.

See thats the thing, there is nothing in that agreement that says that Port won't wear its guernsey on more than that one specific occasion.

And fans of the PAFC, and the PAFC itself will keep pushing for the Port Adelaide's right to wear what (non-clashing) guernsey it wants in its games. And we'll keep pushing until the AFL realises that this is a discussion between just two parties, the AFL and Port Adelaide.

It wasn't Collingwood Mascot though. That was gear specifically branded with the SANFL Port Adelaide Magpies logo. And most of the merchandise that Eddie is complaining about is all things owned by people.
The NTUA scarfes had both the SANFL and AFL team logos on them. And the whole NTUA thing about the club bringing both of the teams together and that we're not going to let them be torn apart again.

We've now moved on to a single logo used in both the SANFL and AFL. While its good in one way, it now means the AFL now have a say in our SANFL merchandise, because the club logo we put on it is the one they own.
