Let's talk Ports! Part 2

[DaTBird187]

Who cares, is this really that big of a deal.

Outrage and complaining are national sports in the country now.

The notion of the whinging Pom ain't got nothing on Australia nowadays.

 

[Magus]

That version of Thunda is nothing new, he just looks grumpy now. Certainly not news.

 

[Marmozet]

Slowly but surely becoming Southern Power.

 

[Us against the rest]

Straight out, Port Adelaide is what I want.

The word Power should only be used alone, never with Port Adelaide.

 

[Us against the rest]

Keep going the way we are, we will soon be known as Portenth.

 

[VineValerian]

And we have awesome new imagery that is so strong and traditional...



fu** that's embarrassing

On SM-G960F using BigFooty.com mobile app

So this is a troll taking the p*** presumably?

Couldn't see the Club using those graphics even if Gil told them to.

They are just not that stupid.

......well!!!

Not sure where to put it, but Davies says that Watts will be ready for pre-season and that the coaches see him as a defender across halfback that will push up onto the wing.

It's time for the wingback idea with Watts and Westhoff.

And Marshall?

 

[Duck Farmer]

I have always thought that our nickname simply being 'Port' instead of 'Power' would endear us to people who live in 'Port Somewhere'.

Another own goal from this incompetent administration ruining our great club.

 

[HinkleysHeroes]

You'd make a great fan of the Tassie Power when this club eventually gets shipped there.

I didn't say change from being the pace did I? No. I said I don't care what others call us. I really don't care, to me we are Port, sorry Koshie.

 

[HinkleysHeroes]

And Marshall?

Every player on our list is at least a half back so it's not a stretch to get Marshall to join Watts and Westy . Although his name starts with an M so may not work out for him.

 

[wannabejack]

I'm confused.
If we're not allowed to be called Port then why do we have a 'PortStore' and t-shirts with Port on them?

I think it's the best postion(s) for Watts but Westhoff cripes how long do we flog the idea of this bloke having anything remotely to do with moving forward as a team.

Remember, Premiership2025.

When 34yo Jack and 39yo Justin will ascend the dais and collect their maiden medallions exactly as planned.

I too received that confusing email today.

The Port Store is not run by the PAFC and the PAFC forgot to send them the memo.

 

[ozph1870]

In what world is it not ok to call the club port...
Seriously run by fkwits

Until he retires or we find somebody better.

powerstore

 

[sobrave]

but not the power store

 

[sobrave]

queenstown power has a good ring to it (they're the crows currently)

could our soft metrosexual millenial footballers hack playing in the hail on gravel though?

 

[tribey]

but not the power store

‘the Power’ store, not ‘THE POWER’ store.

I wake up with Sunrise!!!111

 

[Power Girl]

but is the Power in italics still ok? I understand capitalising 'the' is out ... now.

 

[Wind Power]

Maybe we should just drop Power entirely and just be Port Adelaide.

While we’re at it get rid of the silver and teal from our jumpers as well.

 

[VineValerian]

Can we underline the word Power then?

Or should that be power without an upper case 'p'?

And does the word "the" have a capital 'T' or lower case "t"?

And the term "the Power" would not have inverted commas as a part of the description - I have just done that to avoid confusion about that specific words in the definition we are talking about!

So in summary, we can have the "p" word underlined and italicised, but not capitalised, nor bolded, but perhaps partially capitalised, and the precedent "the" is ok, or maybe even "The", which can (or need not necessarily) be underlined, but just avoid the capitalised version "THE", which should also not be bolded nor underlined, and potentially not italicised?

Got it.

Now for "Port", "Port Adelaide" and "PA".
