    The New Era Is Here

    Legit though, we've become so conditioned to seeing us roll over at the first sign of trouble it will take a while to fully trust us. The fact that two weeks in a row we've started poorly, conceding multiple early goals, and both times fought back to take the lead and push further ahead is very...

    MRP / Trib. Zak Butters wins the Appeal

    I think we'll appeal it out of obligation, we absolutely should, but we won't win because this has been an absolute fix from the start. The AFL will back Foot even if it is just to justify their own compromised position ticking off his Sportsbet job. I'd be staggered if it went beyond that and...

    MRP / Trib. Zak Butters wins the Appeal

    Trying to dictate it to his phone but siri keeps mishearing what he's saying. How ironic.

    Let's talk Ports! Part 3

    I don't think the tickets have been issued in the app to allow you to share them yet. I have tickets for my group and I can't share them yet. Once they are available to be shared (will have to be next week), it should just be the normal process of sending them the ticket through the app to...

    Looked to me like he was cramping. Excellent first game from him though

    Strategy Member Advisory Group

    Yeah that was complete crap. I very rarely bother, but I actually called up and told them how disingenuous it was to spin it just to try to squeeze more money out of the fans, nevermind the fans who were on the honour board and had since passed who couldn't renew themselves even if they wanted...

    Certified Legendary Thread Sack(ed) Hinkley 15 - The End

    Just on this and the reaction of the Hinkley apologists in the wake of one game. Most of us gave Ken the benefit of the doubt when he started, even during some losses that could later be identified as the canary in the coalmine. After about 5-6 years most here had worked out he was a dud...

    Mega Thread The Port Store Mega Thread Part 2

    Hear me out though - it's a guernsey the club wore that pre-dates our AFL entry (well, it pre-dates Federation but you know), so it has some historical significance to the club; it fits well enough into our current colour scheme (the powder blue is close enough to one of the many shades of teal...

    News Port Adelaide's Next Generation Academy

    Carlton certainly have access to those resources, but they also currently employ Chris Davies which surely offsets that advantage somewhat

    Official Club Stuff 2025 AGM - to be held on Thursday 26th February 2026, 1 director to be elected by members. Nominations called for.

    I've attended the last few AGMs but can't tonight due to family commitments. I hope people still stand up and ask questions around member representation and accountability to results (and, if there's time, the buses). Koch and Richardson will be basking in the reflected glow of the Alberton...

    Running For The Board; I REALLY need your help

    Disappointing outcome even if it was expected. A first past the post system with a field of 10 was always going to favour the former player who was being pushed by the club and media. I doubt they’ll release numbers but would be very interested to see the voting splits. Thanks for giving it a...

    Running For The Board; I REALLY need your help

    Have put a few comments and likes on the pages I'm a member of. The AFL Fans Association page now has a post up about the election. Only Justin Leckie (who I assume runs that page) has commented on it. The post only mentions him and Tom Jonas rather than listing all 10 names. It is another...

    Running For The Board; I REALLY need your help

    Enviable Tradition have you considered putting up a post on the Happy Clapper Facebook page (Ken Oath’s True Believers)? Tom Jonas is likely to get the bulk of the Happy Clapper vote because they don’t think critically, but he’s also just put a post up on that page asking for their votes. It...

    Banter TRTTT Part 16 - How good are fingerless gloves

    I was re-watching Sliders recently, and I know it was the 90s and CGI on TV was pretty average, but damn, some of the effects in that just ruin it at times. The dinosaur episode I watched the other day was particularly egregious. Worst CGI in a science fiction film that I ever saw was for the...

    Certified Legendary Thread Sack(ed) Hinkley 15 - The End

    I reckon they'll fracture because some will realise just how bad things were. Some will say they were just supporting the club and will fall in behind Carr. Some will pretend that they never supported Ken Hinkley at all and/or distance themselves from him to try to save face. But...

    Certified Legendary Thread Sack(ed) Hinkley 15 - The End

    Hartlett last week, Wines this week, now that Ken is out the building they've stopped showering him in praise and are admitting to how rigid the place was. You have to wonder what some of the players actually thought privately about the absolute sh1tshow of the last few seasons. Also...

    Running For The Board; I REALLY need your help

    Good luck Brett, you've got my vote and will encourage others to support your candidacy. I briefly spoke to you in passing at the last AGM, I think to congratulate and thank you for asking your question so articulately. I knew you were writing here because we both posted in the AGM thread...

    Certified Legendary Thread Sack(ed) Hinkley 15 - The End

    At Christmas my cousin said to me "well, you got what you wanted, I just hope you don't regret it when your saviour doesn't do any better". Had to tell him that Josh Carr wasn't the saviour, just that we've finally removed the fixed ceiling we had with Ken and that we'll be a lot better with an...

    Player Watch Welcome to Port Adelaide Olivia Crane - Pick #30 2025 Draft

    She's born and raised in Perth, hasn't lived in Adelaide. I imagine it would be getting to know Sophie at nationals. The family is a mix of Port, Sydney and West Coast supporters - those 2005/2006 Grand Finals were interesting in that house.

    Player Watch Welcome to Port Adelaide Olivia Crane - Pick #30 2025 Draft

    Welcome to the club Liv! This made my day, she's a distant family member of mine and I was just hoping she was going to be drafted, but ending up at Port is the best possible outcome. Looking forward to when she debuts!

    Fixture 2026 Fixture

    I'd actually go the other way, expand the season to 34 games (full home and away, play every team twice, get rid of pre-season games). Expand the playing lists, shorten quarters and play mid-week if necessary (ala Covid times) to get all the games in between late February and mid-October...
