WOW create a 40 years of dominance framed memorabilia piece for $2495 and ask people to pay for that..WOW create a once off guernsey and get the members to pay to have their names on it... Thats an awesome money spinner why didnt PAFC think of that ?
oh wait...
Can't happen. Prison bars belong to one of the ten foundation teams of the AFC, so really are part of our heritage, not the new upstart PowerI bet Kockie is calling Vlad and Eddie now, begging to wear the prison bars.
Nigel Smart says: "We are wearing this guernsey at our first game at Adelaide Ovalout of respect for SA footy" to piss off Port Adelaide
Gold Nigel....Gold....
Why are so many of you making the journey to this thread?Nice to know that the Crow's whole world revolves around us
The Port board proves the exact opposite. What a joke - all the meltdowns over there.Nice to know that the Crow's whole world revolves around us
So what's below minnow?
Really. I'm unaware we've asked for handouts.Why would we be jelly you stole the whole money spinning idea from us, i mean lets face it, its all about making revenue not to celebrate state football in SA.
In all seriousness, at first I loved the idea and was fairly open-minded to Port fans being a bit miffed about it.Honestly I think that this is a great marketing exercise by tha AFC, stokes the fires even more which can only be a good thing. Hopefully it becomes an annual thing.
The queries I would have about it (for this first game only) that I honestly put to serious Crows fans here (not trolling, that's for the Bay)
- do you feel that your first game at Adelaide Oval should have been in the Club guernsey?
- do you feel that wearing the State Guernsey should have been done at a Crows home game where supporters would get to see it live?
Haha, this is gold. Their hypocrisy is almost laughable. They're wearing the state guernsey with different colours every week.
In a week celebrating 150 years of SA footy, two SA teams wearing the state guernsey is kind of cool.
And they are so vain they think it's because we want to copy/annoy/be like them.
We were formed in 1990, they were formed in 1996. The fact that they cling to the history of another Port Adelaide football club is no different to us acknowledging our roots.
Screw them I say, I hope we smash them round 2.
Another shocker from Triggy, state jumpers used to be earned not given. At least our shameless money making stunts only cheapen our own guernseys not 150 years of history

Thanks for the considered response.In all seriousness, at first I loved the idea and was fairly open-minded to Port fans being a bit miffed about it.
The discusison on the reasons being to celebrate the return to AO and respecting the history of SA footy I think is a great angle to take by the club.
You guys are part of that history and therefore respect. I'm suprised, but delighted, so many of your fellow port fans are so up in arms about it really.
FWIW I think the club is trolling you guys a little - but the reasons expressed are full of merit IMO.
