:confused: I am not the brightest spark, please elaborate. >
Camry_Chokers, noddy thinks you are Springchoke (a moronic Crows supporter) in the disguise of a Port supporter. Can't say I blame him actually, your names are very similar! He probably thinks you've come here to make a nuisance of yourself down the track.

Springchoke could be your retarded cousin from the shallow end of your family's gene pool. There's no shame in that, you can't help your relatives. :p

Have a look at his work over a period of time and tell me what you think of him? You've obviously got a great sense of humour so it should be entertaining. :D

Favourite Premiership and why: 1977 (1st one I saw PAFC win) and of course, 2004 -to be at the 'G' with your team winning a flag was terrific - and Jack handing the Cup to Tredders & Choko was sensational!!!

Footy/Club History in the family: none, im the only Port Adelaide supporter in my family. The others are all fanatical cow supporters, however i saw the light, chose the right path and followed Port Adelaide. Hopefully in the future, i can work as a Physiotherapist for the club or volunteer any of my services. Well i suppose i could add this is, even though it doesn't have any direct affiliation with the club - i tutored Damien Hardwick's son Benjamin for a few years!

Favourite Premiership and why: I'd have to say the 2004 premiership as it felt so good to silence all the critics (especially my father), i also feel we gained a lot of respect and recognition as a club.

Welcome to BF mate. Always glad to have more Power supporters sign up.

Hi everyone, newbie here, so be nice. What can I say, love the Power, hate the Crows and every other wannabee team.

Hello all Power supporters - BF newbie Nat here (male version).

I have been a BF member for a year and I have decided to join in and start posting - something new to me as a mature member of society and never posted on the internet. I have enjoyed reading the various discussions over the year and now look forward to contributing strong PAFC views.

I'm over 50 and I have been a passionate member, supporter and barracker of the Magpies and the Power for over 40 years and have been fortunate to know a few players and administrators over this time.

I spend a fair bit of time at the club and may catch up with you and introduce myself at a future Quiz night.

Go easy on me as I am still learning the BF rules and protocol.:D

Welcome to Big Footy. Glad to see another loyal Power and Port Magpies supporter sign up.

Thanks ... must admit haven't been to a Magpies game for a few years - did live within walking distance at Alberton and went to most home games for 10 years. I plan to rectify it this year by renewing membership and getting to some games.

[Larry the Liquidator]

Hi all.

I'm new here. I registered only today.

Brief background:

Name: Billy

Live: Melbourne (since January 2000, originally from near Henley Beach in SA. Moved here for work reasons.)

Occupation: Insolvency (hence my nic)

SANFL Team: Magpies (obviously)

AFL Team: Port Adelaide Power (obviously)

Top 3 FLags IMO:

1) 2004 v Brisbane (without doubt - best day of my life, that, and getting married, just in case my wife reads this)

2) 1994 v W.WT. Eagles (6 goals down against the then premier side and won, all thanks to Timmy Ginever)

3) 1999 v Norwood (thriller, and erased the pain of losing in 1984 and 1997 against them)

I'll also throw in the Liverpool 2004/05 Champions League win against AC Milan. To win from three nil down was unbelievable. But Liverpool lost today so life goes on.

Anyway, thats me in a nutshell. Look forward to posting and reading comments from time to time.

And, what I wouldnt give to repeat 2004 all over again.

Cheers folks.

[Powerstufff]

I always thought that it was Hodges (and the crowd lifting him with our chanting ;) )

Welcome aboard LtL

[Larry the Liquidator]

Thanks for the welcome Mr Meaner. And you're right. It was Hodges who ran amok in that last quarter, kicking 6 goals or thereabouts. But from memory, it was Ginever who kept Port within touch when the Eagles were playing all over us. If it wasn't for Ginever, I reckon we would have been nearly ten goals down at quarter time.

Cheers.

[Larry the Liquidator]

Thanks for the welcome too Powerstuff.

Although I only registered yesterday, I have been a regular reader of the boards since about a month before Port won the 2004 flag. Just never bothered to register.

Cheers.

[Papa G]

Age: 32

First Port Adelaide memory: Being 6 years old at a packed Unley Oval sometime in the late seventies. Port coming home with a wet sail, 5 minutes to go, being so small not being able to see anything, but just having a sense of what was happening, and then just the joy on my fathers face when we snatched victory from the jaws of defeat (as we often did in years gone by).... sorry if this sounds a bit wonder years.

Best GF: Would have to say 2004. We really needed that GF victory. I guess I grew up at a lucky time when I just missed out on drought of the late 60's - 70's and magpie premierships were just expected.

Worst loss: Some of the Power's 2002/03 were pretty dissmal, but I still can not go past the 1984 Grand Final.

Have looked at BF for over a year now but have never signed up for fear of wasting too much of the working day on it. Finally have bitten the bullett because there are a few topics I do wish to discuss. Will only bob in and out every so often.

[Ferox]

Given some of the weird stuff on bigfooty I thought a "reintroduction" appropriate.

After a long story of lost password, lost printout of email with new passport & some evil trojan or something in our PCs I haven't posted for ages, combined with my "I've got better thing to do than stuff around with computers" attitude towards technology (Tell me when they can talk & I may be impressed. Who'd buy a car if they said you had to stop & fix it yourself all the time! etc).

My absence was not because I was banned, sulking over being delisted by the swamprats, I was a perennial bridesmaid in the tipping OR that I am a bandwaggoner. I'm just a PC imbecile who prefers books I guess.

I have read the boards consistently meanwhile & even 'tho I was never a major poster I am much relieved to finally be able to post again.

Thx to all the posters, especially those at the coal face, who help me keep a " real" view of things rather than the media dribble. Being stuck in Melb you guys are a lifeline in the circus the media makes of AFL. Without you guys I would know nothing about our younger players, how the Club is really tracking etc.

& BTW my user name was not chosen for any connotation of being "feral".

I'm harmless (well almost harmless, I have been known to throw the odd book at a PC):)

[Sandola]

Welcome to Bigfooty Simon...........we've got a great group of regular posters here on the Port board from most states and some quite interesting discussions.

Our board continues to grow each year and we've got some good initiatives coming up for next season.

Cheers

[Carnport]

Um, does this thing come with a manual? I hit Quick Reply on dreamkillers above post (no. 362) to post. Not sure if this is right??? Bit of a Forum's (Fora?) Newbie.

Anyway, G'day. Been lurking for a year or so and thought I'd sign up. Don't know how often I'll post but I should say thanks for the information and (all too few) laughs.

I'm a Member, Adelaide-born but long gone, and while I've barracked for Port since my Grandfather first took me to Alberton when I was way too young to remember (I actually remember the trip home more than the game) there's no way that I've got anywhere near the knowledge of the Club's history as some of you guys. So, thanks.

If I get up the courage I might see if I can join in some of the more outrageous "fishing expeditions" that get launched by some of the posters here...

Cheers,

Andrew.

[Toots Hibbert]

Fishing? Ooh we don't encourage that! :eek:

Welcome.

[Carnport]

Yeah well at least I didn't mention you by name. Look forward, perhaps given time, to playing Wing Man...

[dreamkillers]

Welcome to the board and we look forward to you joining in the discussions.........

Usually when posting you hit either the reply button at the end of a thread or the quote button from an individual post if you want to reply to a particluar post.

We're a good bunch of footy supporters/members and always look forward to hearing other opinions (well except from those that post rubbish) so join in and I'm sure you'll pick up things real quick.

[portentous]

Great to have you on board carnport.

[Powerstufff]

Yeah well at least I didn't mention you by name. Look forward, perhaps given time, to playing Wing Man...I don't know if you've given much thought to this. Have you see the sorties he flies on the main board?

No.

Are they successful?

[MannumPower]

Hi everyone my name is Luke, 30, long time big footy lurker but decided to finally join as it is one of the few sites my work hasn't blocked. I've just moved from Adelaide to Mannum (on the Murray) and have supported Port since a young tacker when my auntie took me to all the games. my only port claim to fames are that i once swam in a loxton swimming pool with russell eberts wife about 20 years ago and i also went to school with adam heuskes who use to use my back as a step ladder on the footy field.

Go Port

[Total Power]

Welcome to bigfooty MannumPower.

[Armed & Dangerous]

Hi everyone, my name is Chris and I'm 40 years old. I have been looking at this website for the last couple of weeks and have decided to take the plunge and join up. (Only wish that I'd known of this website B4) By the looks of things anything goes in some of the rooms, and it's a bit dissapointing that people who are banned are able to sign up under other names. Looks like I will have to cop some stick in the future from the $h1t that gets thrown about, but so be it. I can handle it & dish it out as well!

On another note, one of my favorite games occurred back in '81 when C. Bradley was still at school. He tore apart the opposition at Prospect in the last quarter, taking the pies from 6 goals down to 2 goals up by the end. We were screaming for them to go for more percentage. lol. Anyway thats a bit about me. See you in the forums

Chris.

A long time coming, so i'll do this reluctantly, due to the fact, its the net. But i like a lot of you guys on the Port Board, so here goes.

I'm from Whyalla, South Aus. Known as Country Supporter on TPFP.

38 years young. Work as a Mining Operator.

Married / Two Daughters. Youngest has played Country State Basketball. Oldest is a boy magnet, with her head screwed on.

I love my Footy, Cricket and Speedway. Fishing and Camping.

Have a Blue Heeler named Boof. He's the biggest Blue youve laid eyes on, but he's a Teddy Bear.

Been a Port Adelaide boy since i could understand. My Old Man hand balled me that one.

Supported Essendon in the VFL/AFL until Tha Power came along. Reasons being, i hated the Crows. And Essendon had Gav, Che Cockatoo, Greg Anderson.

In 1997, i dropped the Bombers like a hot lava rock :D

I go to every home and away game possible for me. Usually three times a year. I was at our first Prelim against the Saints. Memory's i will never let go.

Thats about me :)

I've been posting on here for about a year or so but only just noticed this thread, so thought i'd post something.

Name: Grant

Age: 35

Location: Eastern suburbs of Adelaide

Occupation: Admin - state govt

AFL Team: Port Adelaide

SANFL Team: Port Adelaide Magpies

Other Teams: Aussie cricket side, Redbacks (eek:eek:), 36'ers, also keep an interest in various SA country footy sides.

Footy/Club History in the family: Port Adelaide addiction passed down from grandparents on my father's side. Distant relative, my greatgrandmother's brother i think, AJ Swain (who contributed considerable finances) and his son (John Swain) were involved at various times with the Maggies in the 20th century.

Favourite Premiership and why: 04 obviously, but also loved the 88 SANFL premiership as it was the first one i had seen live and was the first one we'd won in 7 years.

Hi All

I am SpidersHippyHat.

Recognise a few names here. I am a 40 year old 4th generation Port supporter who has supported club since I was a zygote. Still go to all Maggies games, all Power home games with the odd interstate Trip thrown in.

Live quite close to Alberton Oval so I am a regular at the Club. I take a keen intrerest in the history of the club so mosts of my posts will be history related.

LIfe member of the Cheer Squad but not active for many years.

Regards

Favourite Player ♥JUSTIN WESTHOFF♥
SANFL Team: Central Districts(only because ♥the hoff♥ plays there) and Port Magpies ... (otherwise the SANFL bores me to tears)

Footy/Club History in the family:Well my dad was born in Italy and then he moved to Adelaide when he was 3 or 4 and he went for the Port Magpies all his life and then when Port didn't get into the AFL and Crows did obviously he REALLLLLLY hated crows. Well anyway, then he moved back to Italy with my Mum and then after I was born (we were only there for about 6 months,as I was born 2 months early) we came back and we used to go to the SANFL and then when I was 3 or 4 the Power was born, and I have been going for them ever since.

Favourite Premiership and why: 2004 HANDS DOWN! wooh

Footy/Club History in the family: Dad Played Juniors for Port and played reserves (2 matches) at a young age, but then his father passed away and he went a stray, My great Great Grandfather or something of the sort captained Port against an All American side (warfies) in the early 1900's, I played 15's and 17 for Port Magpies.

Favourite Premiership and why: 2004, I have never been so pissed in my life... I was only 14 maybe 15 at the time, would explain a bit! 2007 I was a mess and can't remember the drive home from the Archer (if there was a drive home?) But i have grown up in a Co(r)ws dominated area and all my mate are fans of the other side so 2004 with them was sweet!
