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.

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!

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.
