Well there's a long story about that but once SANFL agreed to the formula and then VFL found out that SANFL includes pre-season games in game total they reneged wouldn't include those games. Port only got one player from father/son and he wasn't eligible but nobody checked. Brett Ebert's dad played 391 games for Port including 4 Magarey medals, coached the club and has his statue out the front of Adelaide Oval but wasn't eligible for father/son.

The pain continues this year James Borlace son of Darryl 246 games for Port 3 time premiership player and former captain - James is a NGA for Adelaide Crows because he was born in Egypt and lives in the wrong area ie Adelaide Crows area.
