Welcome to Bigfooty Simon...........we've got a great group of regular posters here on the Port board from most states and some quite interesting discussions.

Our board continues to grow each year and we've got some good initiatives coming up for next season.

Cheers
 
Um, does this thing come with a manual? I hit Quick Reply on dreamkillers above post (no. 362) to post. Not sure if this is right??? Bit of a Forum's (Fora?) Newbie.

Anyway, G'day. Been lurking for a year or so and thought I'd sign up. Don't know how often I'll post but I should say thanks for the information and (all too few) laughs.

I'm a Member, Adelaide-born but long gone, and while I've barracked for Port since my Grandfather first took me to Alberton when I was way too young to remember (I actually remember the trip home more than the game) there's no way that I've got anywhere near the knowledge of the Club's history as some of you guys. So, thanks.

If I get up the courage I might see if I can join in some of the more outrageous "fishing expeditions" that get launched by some of the posters here...

Cheers,

Andrew.

Welcome to the board and we look forward to you joining in the discussions.........

Usually when posting you hit either the reply button at the end of a thread or the quote button from an individual post if you want to reply to a particluar post.

We're a good bunch of footy supporters/members and always look forward to hearing other opinions (well except from those that post rubbish) so join in and I'm sure you'll pick up things real quick.

I don't know if you've given much thought to this. Have you see the sorties he flies on the main board?

Hi everyone my name is Luke, 30, long time big footy lurker but decided to finally join as it is one of the few sites my work hasn't blocked. I've just moved from Adelaide to Mannum (on the Murray) and have supported Port since a young tacker when my auntie took me to all the games. my only port claim to fames are that i once swam in a loxton swimming pool with russell eberts wife about 20 years ago and i also went to school with adam heuskes who use to use my back as a step ladder on the footy field.

Go Port
 
Hi everyone, my name is Chris and I'm 40 years old. I have been looking at this website for the last couple of weeks and have decided to take the plunge and join up. (Only wish that I'd known of this website B4) By the looks of things anything goes in some of the rooms, and it's a bit dissapointing that people who are banned are able to sign up under other names. Looks like I will have to cop some stick in the future from the $h1t that gets thrown about, but so be it. I can handle it & dish it out as well!

On another note, one of my favorite games occurred back in '81 when C. Bradley was still at school. He tore apart the opposition at Prospect in the last quarter, taking the pies from 6 goals down to 2 goals up by the end. We were screaming for them to go for more percentage. lol. Anyway thats a bit about me. See you in the forums

Chris.

Are you a born and bred Edmontonian? Have you given up on the Oilers? A good friend lives in Calgary, been to a Flames game but not the Oilers or Canucks. Lived in Toronto nearly 20 years ago for a year and saw the Leafs a few times and the Great One play in LA. Are Edmonton still winning their share of the Grey Cups in the Canadian Football League?

A long time coming, so i'll do this reluctantly, due to the fact, its the net. But i like a lot of you guys on the Port Board, so here goes.

I'm from Whyalla, South Aus. Known as Country Supporter on TPFP.

38 years young. Work as a Mining Operator.

Married / Two Daughters. Youngest has played Country State Basketball. Oldest is a boy magnet, with her head screwed on.

I love my Footy, Cricket and Speedway. Fishing and Camping.

Have a Blue Heeler named Boof. He's the biggest Blue youve laid eyes on, but he's a Teddy Bear.

Been a Port Adelaide boy since i could understand. My Old Man hand balled me that one.

Supported Essendon in the VFL/AFL until Tha Power came along. Reasons being, i hated the Crows. And Essendon had Gav, Che Cockatoo, Greg Anderson.

In 1997, i dropped the Bombers like a hot lava rock :D

I go to every home and away game possible for me. Usually three times a year. I was at our first Prelim against the Saints. Memory's i will never let go.

Thats about me :)
 
I've been posting on here for about a year or so but only just noticed this thread, so thought i'd post something.

Name: Grant

Age: 35

Location: Eastern suburbs of Adelaide

Occupation: Admin - state govt

AFL Team: Port Adelaide

SANFL Team: Port Adelaide Magpies

Other Teams: Aussie cricket side, Redbacks (eek:eek:), 36'ers, also keep an interest in various SA country footy sides.

Footy/Club History in the family: Port Adelaide addiction passed down from grandparents on my father's side. Distant relative, my greatgrandmother's brother i think, AJ Swain (who contributed considerable finances) and his son (John Swain) were involved at various times with the Maggies in the 20th century.

Favourite Premiership and why: 04 obviously, but also loved the 88 SANFL premiership as it was the first one i had seen live and was the first one we'd won in 7 years.
 
Hi All

I am SpidersHippyHat.

Recognise a few names here. I am a 40 year old 4th generation Port supporter who has supported club since I was a zygote. Still go to all Maggies games, all Power home games with the odd interstate Trip thrown in.

Live quite close to Alberton Oval so I am a regular at the Club. I take a keen intrerest in the history of the club so mosts of my posts will be history related.

LIfe member of the Cheer Squad but not active for many years.

Regards
SpidersHippyhat
