Why can not Port Adelaide do what the rest of the league had to do and survive.
1. $800k of PAFC/PAMFC money up in smoke immediately when the other SANFL clubs voted with their paranoid feet and forced the Magpies to start anew at Ethelton. Had the PAMFC been able to invest that money - a sizeable chunk o'change in 1990s bucks - or merely use it as a cash reserve rather than burning the bulk of it just to get to square one that would obviously have helped.
2. Just 25c in the dollar for every meal, beer and pokie button press from Magpies/opposition supporters at The Port Club on PAMFC gamedays.
Those are the two that have really hurt. Other realities such as the well-publicised identity fracture, the SANFL forbidding of any joint membership/fundraising initiatives between the PAFC and PAMFC and being forcibly excised from their spiritual base are also factors.
