I am not sure if I should have started a new thread on this, but with the whole issue of the Suns wearing the Red and yellow jumper, I was thinking that it may not have any impact or may actually work to benefit us indirectly?
Maybe they have the Chinese colours on the jumper, but if that draws...
OK well I am not getting sucked into petty arguments from some other posters on here who are trying to get me to arc up (not you telsor, but I am referring to other replies that are around the time of your reply).
But the fact was as soon as SANFL put court action on us, legally we could not...
True, but it was for 1991 entry, but yes technically you are correct that the bid was in 1990, but it was for the 1991 season entry.
Here is the full explanation of the 1990 Bid of Port and the saga surrounding it if anyone is interested...
We were approved by the AFL in 1991 but as we went behind the backs of the SANFL, as soon as the SANFL found out they then flooded us with legal action which prevented us being able to enter the AFL and thus they invented the Adelaide Crows composite side.
That's the facts and it's been...
I will try to find it, but apparantly only the website has the traditional Lion logo (which is an awesome logo and the cartoon lion that's more modern on the jumpers is shite in my opinion, but I am a man who likes traditional things).
Basically it said that soon Brisbane FC want to remove the...
The irony is that my club (Port) actually in it's 1991 bid for the AFL, the original plan was to totally exit the SANFL and enter the AFL (leaving no Port Adealide in the SANFL... and the SANFL objected to this!
This needs to end up in the High Court, this is something that could also used be Essendon if they feel cornered to use any legal tactic than can tear the AFL up... I am sure the lawyers know alot anyway, so what we chat is idle chat really.
I am just disgusted how this hasn't been handed...
But all this can easily be taken down with "restraint of trade" in court.... as not only would the draft come down but also the AFL's ownerships of the clubs!
All our clubs would be truly free and independent as entities as they were intended by their creators in the 1800's
I think it's time we...
All but guaranteeing for Hawthorn.. wait a second mate... we got Ryder... and out coach Ken say "yes we Ken!!!"
Watch out Hawthorn, in 2015 we are Port Adelaide and we are the freight train coming you way!!!
Ok say if Hird is guilty as sin, then how does his actions justify taking down a whole club?
Hird is NOT Essendon, as no man is greater than the club.... the clubs are for the people! They are greater than any one man.
I was told by another Bombers member on bigfooty that you can not appeal after the tribunal decision, is that correct?
As I believe as a club you should have the right to appeal as it concerns your club!
I was told that only the AFL or WADA or ASADA can appeal.. but not Essendon or the...
All clubs should join together to tell the AFL that Essendon need the right to Appeal over the AFL's head as this is not currently possible.
I believe that superseding the AFL so that all clubs can start a breakaway competition is best as we can't even talk about Essendon having fair right and...
Man I always was sad how Fitzroy has been treated so bad and now Brisbane are gonna get rid of the traditional logo entirely in all traces soon... They were royally ****** over.
Fitzroy needed a merger with a Melbourne based team or it needed funding to stay afloat... you can blame the AFL for...
History is kind of useless when it comes to those records, as anything can happen really.
Also if we can play Ryder and Monfries it will change alot... but the wildcard factor is that if Ryder and Monfries are banned for X amount of time, lets say 6 months then we could lose a few games...
Look, guys, can we just change their names to "Jimmy" and "Johnno" by DEPOL? Would that avoid the bans? Check if it's a loophole any lawyer Port supporters on here! :D
Man I live in East London, been here for a few years now, I am near where the Olympics was in Stratford.
If you come around here lets grab a pint. I can show you around London, I can get into some clubs here for free as I know the staff and bouncers, so I could get you in.
lol @ the giant analog clock :D but I like the idea of games being played at surburban grounds... I mean I think it would be cool if for one game a year if each side played at their spiritual home (Collingwood at Vic Park and such) for expected low drawing crowd games.
As a hypothetical...
We should upgrade Alberton and play there, how hard is it to put new stand in? Come on!
We can get Alberton to 120,000 easy I reckon (I have had a few beers so don't quote me lol)
But seriously we should be upgrading Alberton and tell Adelaide Oval to shove thier useless contract that rips us...
I'm frightened.... I mean... have we even made space in the trophy cabinet for the 2015 premiership cup?
We are running out of room down at Alberton and it aint no joke! :D
Thanks mate, look also I don't blame umpiring or anything for our 3 point loss to you guys.... basically footballs a simple game and we should have kicked straighter if we wanted a reason to complain, but we can't complain as we kicked shocking in that prelim vs you guys.
At the end of the day...
Mate I know I got the hunger.... for 2 lamb steaks I'm about too cook rare with chips..
Seriously though... we don't need "hunger", as we bascailly have the best side in the comp, and we play as a team, I think alot rests on how long Ryder/Monfries get banned (along with the other Essendon...
Mate just book the trip for what suits you, if you miss games then it's not good but then your life and holidays and such come before going to a football match.
Btw where you planning to travel to?
I have traveled alot and I currently live in London, so I am curious as travel is awesome!
I am hoping we get as many away games at the MCG as possible as this will get us ready for the Grand Final (if we are to make it there). I'd say we request as many MCG games as possible.
I assume you mean what MJ did at the end there... well maybe :D but since he is the greatest of all time, I think he didn't push off Russell, that was an optical illusion :D lol
Btw, who thinks that Michael Jordan should come back as a role player off the bench on the Cavs?
They lack depth on...
Hey man, I added you as I respect that you are decent and I wanted to contact you.. I had to send you a PM now as I can;t fit it in here, so I'm cutting and pasting it, but I am sorry for bagging Essendon. I think the media is out to get your club. Anyway i'll send you a PM now.
No corrupt officiating, come on guys!
At Alberton we don't make excuses, we just come back harder next year!
Hawthorn won the 2014 Premiership fair and square, and we had our chance to beat them and we messed up, and it was our own fault.
So full respect to Hawthorn, and lets hope we meet for...
