Port Adelaide Magpies

This is one to remember...We must get our house in order.

Thank God it is being done but there is still a long way to go.

No doubt the Power joining the AFL killed the S.A Magpies-wonder if it will also effect the Power going forward?

Port Power should never have been allowed into the AFL-the supporter base was always too small and polarized.

Will Port Power Survive long term???

Thoughts...

 

The franchise did not reflect the rich history of a proud club. This was a HUGE mistake on behalf of the AFL and if they had better foresight i think they would have started two South Australian teams at the same time.

Totally agree. Another one of Wayne Jacksons great legacies. You really wonder what is going to happen to the power in the next 5-10 years.

No future for Port Adelaide either...

In Adelaide ( like Collingwood in Melbourne), you either barrack for them or hate them. Do they have any supporters outside S.A.?

The only followers that Port have are the old Magpie supporters. Everyone else barracks for Adelaide. On a national basis, they have too few to be financially viable. It is just a matter of time....

"The only followers that Port have are the old Magpie supporters."

You are so right, and now that old Magpie football team has been starved to death, you wonder how long those old magpie supporters will support the Teal Port Power.

Another Team on the long Term Drip feed. This is not good for us all.

Thanks Wayne Jackson-you are responsible for this mess.


Here's one for Wayne Jackson! Port Power should merge with the Adelaide Crows.I'd love to see that floated in the newspapers.

This is not just B/S, for those interested there is a book called BUYOLOGY by Martin Lindstrom. In one of the chapters it reports how they hooked people up to fMRI machines and found that the regions of the brain activated when thinking about your sports team are exactly the same regions activated when thinking about religion.

This probably says more about what we don't know about the brain more than any other highly subjective conjecture. As I am an atheist, are you saying that I have lost some brain capacity?

 

UD why no, you barrack for the Dee's and this activity alone catapaults you into the upper echelons of braininess.

And on the other end of the scale there are Collingwood Supporters... :lol:

Gippy

Sad too see any club go under. That said, I would rather it be Port than us in 5-10 years. Boy do we need some success to drag us out of the doldrums!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
