No argument from me on the second part of your post. The Power, and a lot of their supporters, don't seem to understand that there are some of there own supporters that hate the prison bar jumper as they went for, and still do go for, other SANFL teams. Likewise, there are old Port Magpies fans in the SANFL that don't follow the Power. Predictably, a lot of their supporters on this forum will howl me down, purely because I am a Crows supporter.
Not shouting you down, but it's not a gotcha that these people exist.
But if they really support Port Adelaide, they'll struggle over the long term if they deny our heritage, because it's so intricately woven into the fabric of the club. Most people I know who supported other SANFL clubs have enough respect for the history to know that it's an intrinsic part of the club.
Fortunately, people who aren't on board at all are such a tiny fraction of the supporter base that they're irrelevant to the argument.
