You want to completely forget 50% of them.But we don't want to change our colours ?
So according to you lot apparently we went all out teal to sell memberships and now we are going all out black and white to sell memberships ?How on earth is it marketing??
Jesus mate this isn’t hard - not marketing as in sell that guernsey to the fans, though that could be part of it. Marketing as in Koch’s “We are the old Port, always have been” rubbish, so that you sell other merchandise, tickets, memberships etc.
That’s our point, it’s never about “heritage” because you’re not the original Port - it’s ALWAYS just marketing spin.
Except we don't?You want to completely forget 50% of them.
identity crisis is what it is.So according to you lot apparently we went all out teal to sell memberships and now we are going all out black and white to sell memberships ?
You do, you want to wear a jumper that doesn't have any teal or silver in it.Except we don't?
We love teal.
They're our new AFL traditions. Nobody ever said we want to scrap teal on a permanent basis. Minimal teal just looks better.
But we don't ?You do, you want to wear a jumper that doesn't have any teal or silver in it.
Imagine melbourne if we decided to forget yellow. They'd have every right to put up a fuss.
See this is where the issue is, it was once, then it was herritige rounds, then home showdowns, now twice a year in showdowns.But we don't ?
We want to wear it once a year or in showdowns.............
This wouldn't effect Collingwood , their revenue of their brand whatsoever.
It won't be if the AFL agreed to the request ... They didn't so I'm sure the club will take it further which could backfire for Collingwood.See this is where the issue is, it was once, then it was herritige rounds, then home showdowns, now twice a year in showdowns.
You dont see the issue?
Next it will be all home games, then all games bar Collingwood, then all games.
It never stops changing with you guys.
The afl and collingwood already agreed, twice and you keep pushing.It won't be if the AFL agreed to the request ... They didn't so I'm sure the club will take it further which could backfire for Collingwood.
The AFL shouldn't be consulting with Collingwood they should be making their decisions independent. It's never changed. The 2007 agreement was effectively void when they canned heritage rounds hence the club pushing.The afl and collingwood already agreed, twice and you keep pushing.
As i said it keeps changing.
Thats all from me on this.
Its not upsetting, you're just that annoying little thing hanging around yapping and shitting that needs to be put outside and to be told no, again.The AFL shouldn't be consulting with Collingwood they should be making their decisions independent. It's never changed. The 2007 agreement was effectively void when they canned heritage rounds hence the club pushing.
You're not answering my question.
I just find it bewildering some of you have an issue with this.
So according to you lot apparently we went all out teal to sell memberships and now we are going all out black and white to sell memberships ?
Pylons.. bars...... Whatever the case you're obsessed.Here’s exactly why. It’s been said many times, but I’ll say it again.
Port lied to the SANFL and tried to get into the AFL behind their backs. Stuff the rest of the State.
A company was formed for the new AFL Port in 1996. Not 1870, like the marketing says. More lies.
They’re pylons, not prison bars. Another lie.
No one said all out to either of those. You’re just using whatever you can to sell stuff. Marketing, not heritage.
Or they just kinda look like prison bars.So every Port supporter knows they’re pylons but still calls them prison bars to support the myth of what a bunch of rugged outlaw types you are. Got it.
When people who try to delegitimise Port's claims to heritage have their views challenged, the response is always something along these lines. This is not how normal people talk. I don't normally go for analogies, but imagine the following exchange taking place between two people:All part of the myth making behind Port Power. Different entity? The AFL Port club was incorporated as a company in 1996. A separate legal entity. Not the SANFL Port Magpies founded in 1870.
The SANFL flags were won by a different organization. The club known as the Power has only existed since 1996 and has won one flag.
So again, blurring the edges to create this myth of prison bar-wearing, long established club as your “heritage” when in fact it’s just a marketing exercise.
You’re an AFL manufactured club just like the Crows, except younger and with less premierships.
No new company was formed. The port magpies were a new football club after 1996, a new administration relocated to Enfield because this was a SANFl mandate as per licence agreements and through hardwork we merged the two together in 2010 and want to recognise that. This was for the fans last night nobody else and your opinion is irrelevant.Here’s exactly why. It’s been said many times, but I’ll say it again.

Port will say and do whatever advantages them and couldn’t care less about others in the competition. Can’t be trusted with any “oh but it’s just this or just that...” If the AFL gives in on this you’ll be back wanting more next time.

Nope.I think its a publicity stunt more than 'honouring your history' - its a marketing gimmick
If it was honouring your history the team would do it after every match
You think they are bottom half of the 8 materiel right now?
No we wouldn't. We love our current Guernsey. It's purely because of the request that was denied. The fans wanted it. Get over it . It has nothing to do with your club.
Also, what is meant by a “different entity”?
We have everything to do with you according to your fans which is amusing.You only want to wear them in Showdowns but it has nothing to do with our club?
We shouldn't be told NO that's the point. Can't have it both ways. Every other professional sporting organisation in the world wouldn't have a issue with it, can't blame the fans. What's that got to do with your distaste of us wearing it against you though?
