Dwayne Russell: Collingwood's Eddie McGuire puts foot down over Port Adelaide’s prison bars | Adelaide Now
Port Adelaide’s AFL team will be allowed to wear its iconic prison bars jumper twice in its 150th year but Collingwood boss Eddie McGuire has made sure it won’t be an ongoing feature, writes Dwayne Russell.
... And the Power can also market and sell next season’s 150th celebration configuration of its black and white prison bar jumper at AFL games forever more.
The irony of the yearly fight with the AFL and McGuire being a fight Port is destined to never win, is that in reality, it’s a losing fight Port likes having anyway.
Because it’s a unifying rally cry for the fans, and enhances the us-against-them “never tear us apart” persona.
