Been to too many funerals this yr(4) one a tragic suicide so New Years to me is all about celebrating being upright n breathing.

To all on Big Footy thanks for the laughs the insights and the chance to debrief the highs n lows of 2019.

Watched our crushing showdown win in July yesterday. Highly recommend.

GremioPower all the best to you and your family and cheers for your input on our boards :)

Thanks and obviously to you and those you hold dear. Good to see you posting again was wondering if your passion

for all things Ports of yesteryear was weighing heavily considering how much we've changed in the last 10yrs.

Losing our zones and Academy team as well as having our creed and history milked and then trashed then milked again

at saturation levels to bolster flagging memberships.

Thanks brother for your kind thoughts.

I am disillusioned with losing our zones and hence, our life blood but how can I stop being Port Adelaide? I thought I'd better to bite my tongue as much as possible because the damage has been done now and I don't want to cause more grief, especially now that it's our 150th.

To be honest, we are still so much better off than those on the south coast (including friends we know are affected that we can't reach). Hoping we can stay fire-free across the weekend.

Couple of cyclones forming in WA and NT next week apparently, hopefully a lot of moisture finds it's way south.

Happy Halloween............bugger. Got my dates mixed up!

Totally unrelated and off-topic, but does anyone know when the Adelaide Footy League fixtures come out.?
#1 son affiliated with Modbury (used to play, now runs the water).
Trying to figure out which games of his I can get to see, and not miss any Port ones i had pencilled in to attend.
Most country leagues already have their fixtures establiished, so not sure why the ammos are so far behind everyone else.
Thanks in advance if anyone knows anything.

Interesting little factoid I learnt the other day, with the AMCAP safety ratings, check the year - the criteria change from year to year so a 5-star rating from say 2015 isn’t equivalent to a 5-stay rating from 2019.

MG has a rating from 2019, this is ideal.
