View Full Version : A Power-filled Xmas?
I know i got a few items of power gear this year, mainly from cow supporters which makes it even better as i know it would have killed them to buy it:D
Power presents included, socks, a key ring and numerous blocks of that Power chocolate. My girlfriend tried to buy the Power DVD, full of highlights from the 2002 season but was unable to locate a copy as the places she had gone to had sold out. I be down at Alberton picking up a copy soon though! Mum also renewed my Power club membership, thanks mum!
Anyone else get any/a lot of Power based presents?

Parents paid for my Cat 1 Footy Park membership that was transferred into my name from my Dad at the end of last season..........
and as I have someone who is using the ticket during the regular season it's even more of a bonus..................
now have access to 2 anchored GF seats..........:D
Got another scarf to add to the collection!

Didnt get any Power related stuff for Christmas this year. Which is understandable after all the block signed guernseys i got for my 21st a few months back. Plus i bought myself a new guernsey at the End Of Season thing at Alberton...got my Guerras guernsey :D
I hope i wont ever by another scarf. Im a bit sentimental when it comes to those sorta things. Ive had the same Port Magpies scarf since the first time i went to the footy when i was 3 or 4. Got my Power scarf for Christmas in 96 and hopefully will have that for a very long time too. Only bought a new hat because i dunno what happened to my other one.
I was a bit annoyed this Christmas since I didnt really get any Power related presents, which was all I wanted, and everyone in my family knew it. The only thing remotely close was $35 to pay for my 2003 PAMFC membership. Concession, of course. I'll have to get on to the family about what I want for my birthday, but they should all know by now!

At Kmart down here they were chucking the Power DVDs out 'cos they weren't selling. Seems like stocks were somewhat misdistributed then...
And strangely enough I got no Power-related presents... on the day, anyway.

I've order a new scarf that a friend of a friend makes. They look professionally done, really long, much longer than the normal ones and they have all the players names for the 2003 season on them. For thirty bucks not bad, obviously not AFL licensed though but they look good.

OK........if they are as good as you said earlier you could end up with a few orders for your friend - just ensure they make something out of it if it happens...........

I think I have seen them, look good. Only problem is when the player leaves and he stuck on your scarf forever.
I prefer the English soccer style scarfs

Put me down as an interested party in these scarves, if they're longish.

They'd have to be pretty long if you were going to fit names like (ockatoo- Collins and Koulouriotis on them!
