Nicknames are crappy anyway. Power is better than Magpies.

Can't wait to see the PAFC front up at AO in the prison bar.
So ****ing proud of the club - hope the players do us all proud as well.
The only Sanfl guernsey that will ever be displayed in front of a national audience on prime time TV in a national competition.

As a guernsey the bib is a better design etc. But the history of the PB means it wins for me every time, even though this is by far the most successful season I've seen the magpies play.

One thing that gets me is how people still forget the essential and most important part of our club.
ITS NAME.
Port Adelaide FC.
I know, most of those that hate us don't want to acknowledge our name as it is what their idiotic premise of who we are is based on.

I want to make history in BiB. I was born in '94 so I didn't grow up to watch the PBs become what they are today. So I want to see that happen with BiB. I want to see our current guernsey gain the respect that the PBs have to the older folk on here.

I'm in a similar boat. Why don't we just win 36 premierships in the BiB?

The PB isn't a permanent fixture and the BiB will be around for a long time. Just enjoy seeing the boys play in a guernsey that will further entrench in people's minds around the country where we've come from, and when we do win the premiership they'll be in the BiB, which is what people will really remember.
I don't know if that makes sense. I've had a few beers.

Makes perfect sense. I am all for the PB was just saying that we should also win 36 premierships in the BiB.

I think the oddest part of this is that it even existed in the first place. Had it been a night match there could have been a reason for wearing a clash jumper that was lighter than the Richmond clash jumper. And we do have a white one already. The decision would still be hugely unfair but the AFL could point to some warped thinking as to why they felt it was logical.
But with the game at 2.50 Richmond could play in their normal jumper and a clash wouldn't happen. They played the cows, who have a darkish jumper, under lights and did not wear a clash jumper.

Trick question maybe?
There are too many vocal minority supporters of the magpies to let them die.
I think the club would be like things to remain the same?
The opposing SANFL clubs would like to take the magpies out of the equation and be a Power B grade side in my opinion
Maybe in time it may happen like that especially if there is ever an AFL reserves competition.
Brisbane,Sydney,GWS and Gold Coast have reserves that play in the North Australia league who travel interstate at times.

2 positives to come out of this saga for me:
1) It's been such a monumental PR embarrassment for the AFL that they'll finally have to do something about their farcical clash policy.
2) I've finally had it with 5AA and switched off for good. The tipping point was 5 minutes this morning:
1) It's been such a monumental PR embarrassment for the AFL that they'll finally have to do something about their farcical clash policy.
2) I've finally had it with 5AA and switched off for good. The tipping point was 5 minutes this morning:
- soundgrab from tearful "Port fan distraught about not wearing the home jumper" that was almost certainly a fake caller
- Rowe calling KT's claim of 93% of Port members having Magpies affiliation a lie, while not having the guts to say it to him live the day before. I also remember one of Trigg's final interviews where he claimed it was only a small % of disgruntled Crows fans and Rowe said nothing to challenge. Seriously, what would have a higher approval rating - PBs amongst Port fans or Trigg amongst Crows fans, LOL
- Penberthy "won't somebody think of the children with their teal gear who will be upset by a non-teal guernsey"
Here is the problem our club has that can easily be overcome by releasing short DVD's to members to help them understand Port Adelaide Football Club.
The BiB has equal respect and admiration as the PB to the older folk...... why, because THEY ARE PORT ADELAIDE. Its here, where the respect from the younger supporter base have to give at these times for our club and the older folk who always seem to wipe a tear from there eye from the pure pleasure of seeing the PB back at Adelaide oval. There will be some there from 1965, that will have flash backs with a grin from ear to ear.
When you love a club, you love every aspect of it and provide support when its needed, consider your self married to the club.
Hopefully, the guy who calls himself a radio announcer in the morning on 5AA, has the mind set to go on that the younger supporter will not understand and thinks that all the memorabilia that kids have at home with Teal in it will confuse them even more. Which is not the case if the parents teach the children why the club wears the colours it does and at the same time provide a full history lesson of the club in a equal and un biased view of the club and how we entered the AFL.
WE, want to make history no matter what colours we don on the day, just as long we a called "Port Adelaide Football Club". that's what we were called when we won the 36prems.
In saying that, you can drop the Power and the Magpies..... keep donning on the PB in the SANFL, and don on the PB on special occasions (don't care Ed) in the AFL along side the BiB.
At the end of the day, the most important part of our club's IP, is the name, that's sacred ....... Jumpers/Guernsey's come and go....
I am twice your age, and to see Port back in the 80's when we were taking on AFL teams made me so proud then and extremely emotionally proud now (= immediate), itching and waiting for us to get into the AFL, so for us OLD folk, it means more to us than you will ever know......
And to echo what others have said, what better stage to don on our PB..... the closer the day comes, more and more it will make sense.........
I will be donning on my PB for this day........don't care how long it takes to roll the PB over my gut..... (might just pre stretch it on Friday, ready for sunday
)
Unfortunately my fellow Saints fan, the 1976 FA Cup is the only major trophy we have won and that's the reason fro the nostalgia.
COYR
They don't arrive until saturday morning is that the story?
Surely we have some PB's they can train in before then

I would assume every player has a Maggies jumper with SANFL sponsorship in the event that they get dropped to the 2s.
