Can Adelaide wear a jumper that represents there SANFL heritage in the game?
The Adelaide football club was formed to represent the SANFL. Without the SANFL they wouldn't exist.They have no SANFL heritage, Port does.
It probably will.. its an interesting subject. Two very old, traditional clubs with the same magpie identity thown into the same league together was always gonna court controversy..Let's get to 100 pages.
So you have nothing against us wearing the state guernsey in showdowns as its a reflection on sa football heritage (Port vs the state)?
look, i have no issue in you wearing the prison bars, im all for you being allowed to wear it as your home guernsey, even vs Collingwood
But if you want to use that as your argument, i assume you have no issue in Adelaide wearing the state jumper.
Why are there so many Crows fans in this thread.
They are the least qualified to talk about or even understand history.
"champ"Jeez mods. Hope you deleted the post I quoted too...
Grew up in Adelaide following the SANFL and half of my family support PAFC. Why am I not qualified or not able to understand history champ?
"champ"
Lol
Enjoy your Saturday
The Camry Crows were invented for one reason only, to prevent Port Adelaide from getting in the AFL. Without Port they wouldn't exist.The Adelaide football club was formed to represent the SANFL. Without the SANFL they wouldn't exist.
Sidestepped the question beautifully.

Like the United Nations without the Nazis.
Interesting how a club with 'no history' would beat one to the punch with so much. Goes to show how much relevance the AFL places on Port's history and thus here we are with the current topic.
Why are you here?
What’s the skin you have in the game?
The Camry Crows did not "beat one to the punch", they did not exist. They were invented after the SANFL went to court to block Port Adelaide from joining the AFL. It was not a contest between Port and the Crows because the Crows did not exist. The Camry Crows were invented later to replace Port Adelaide on the licence.Like the United Nations without the Nazis.

Can we wear the jumper yet?
Apparently not.
I think, according to the Adelaide Football Club, they were around in the 1800's, disbanded 3 times as complete failures, before finally emerging as the Crows in 1991.
What's your thoughts on that "history"?
Only a Collingwood fan could argue that black on white stripes are objectively different to white on black stripes.Teams might have the same colours true...
but you can't have the same design.....
oh wait,
the Bars jumper is nothing like the large stripes of Collingwood, infact it even has an unusual horizontal bar at top of the stripes and also the stripes are much smaller, the jumper is in-fact nothing like Collingwoods.
If you go by the old 'graphic design philosophy' - run it through the fax machine and does your design still reproduce as a unique and stand alone piece in B&W'
- Then absolutely of you are Port Adelaide.
Collingwood, North Melb, Hawthorn suddenly all become the same.
So can Collingwood own Black and White, clearly not. So what are we actually arguing about as the jumpers are nothing like each other.
This is all about we were here first, VFL blah blah..... some magical contract, spineless AFL..... etc.. etc... it's not based on any logic, simply jealousy the Ports jumper is actually more memorable and a better design than Collingwoods will ever be, get back in your place Port, we were here first..
Adelaide can wear the state jumper if they want.So you have nothing against us wearing the state guernsey in showdowns as its a reflection on sa football heritage (Port vs the state)?

Without Port they wouldnt exist.The Adelaide football club was formed to represent the SANFL. Without the SANFL they wouldn't exist.
Why else put this 3-part series in Adelaide's own website?According to the Adelaide Football Club? The one that has est 1990 on their merchandise? Where do they say they are the same club as the one from the 1800s?

Almost like they're a little insecure about their history.

The first in a three-part series about the history of the original Adelaide Football Club, South Australia's first football club.www.afc.com.au
Only this Adelaide Football Club was not the Crows
The AFL clubs voted on who was to be accepted in 1990 someone correct me if I'm wrong.That's the point, did not exist. Yet the AFL accepted 'did not exist' over did exist for over 100 years. Its a reflection on how the AFL see Ports history if they ended up accepting a bid from that which did not exist. Hell, even Freo gets in before them.
