We honestly have as much supporters as the cats IMO just we cant convert them into members and money

Port fans are incredibly fickle... My god... Was on their forum and they have a thread titled "Have lost faith in Hinkley" when he pretty much dug them out of the black hole and put them up for premiership contention last year. Yes, obviously, they have dropped off quite a bit, but wow. Their fickleness makes me laugh, and it's the reason why I hate Port fans. Just pathetic.

Its coz richo left

I hate them because the majority of their supporters didn't even know what football was until last year and then all of a sudden they pop up when a team is doing well and act like they've supported them for years. The definition of bandwagoners

GWS says hi..

Well obviously, but SA was a developed football area but Port still couldn't get any supporters, Western Sydney was much less developed. Also GWS is a new club, Port had been around for a while

Wow. That's not all that much more than we have now. Completely different story to the Hawks who had around 30k for a long time, now have 65k.

 

[Saintt]

Would only give us the 12th most members if we had that many members this year. Although numbers are well up by every club since then.

I agree totally, was just referring to the supporters who are experts of all things AFL after 5 minutes..
