I like the one in the bottom left-hand corner, & even the fourth one on the top line.

The petition on change.org is closing in on the 35k signatures port are seeking. Including several Collingwood supporters! Ed is weakened now due to his ridiculous stance on sidebottom’s antics - now would be the excellent time for port to strike and the afl to show some sense in allowing their history and tradition to be suitably honored. #bringbackthebars

Good thing the AFL cares about public opinion, a petition will absolutely convince them.

Until it happens to which he'll then say his comments were taken out of context.
If this is him acknowledging that the AFL have the final say and not Collingwood then he needs to shut the fire truck up

Not even kidding... in a dream where this happened not too long ago with Port just randomly coming out on the field with PBs against Collingwood.
Is it an omen?

Pies could call in on Southport and borrow a clash strip (reminiscent of that one they wore against swan districts in the 80s night series!)

Bit of a strange thing to say about a club stalwart who currently coaches a VFL team and was invited onto a popular TV show tonight.

Choco cares more about his own legacy than the will of the Port Adelaide supporter base and current club custodians.
He feels like that downplaying teal is somehow downplaying his legacy, which is silly. The 2004 flag is the greatest moment in the history of the club and nobody can take it away from us. If we wore the bars as a home guernsey we'd wheel out the 2004 guernsey all the time as a heritage kit.

Gotta love it when people don't actually listen to what people say, they only hear what they want to hear.
Mark Williams has been seriously misquoted over this and its bullshit.
He actually said they should be allowed to wear it in Showdowns - which is exactly what David Koch and the club have been petitioning for.

Bollocks, he loves our club and always will. It's his family.

I apologise for the misquote, but he still didn't favour the full time use of the bars which is very interesting. And yes, while officially they have only been petitioning for irregular use, many on this board have petitioned for them to be worn every game.
But whether he is trying to further his legacy or not doesn't mean his opinion isn't valid, if he feels a greater connection to the teal because he won a premiership in 2004, then so be it.

For what it’s worth I don’t think the 2004 flag is the main reason for him not supporting the PBs as much as you’d expect, his Collingwood connections could be a reason but I’m doubtful of that, it’s just it’s frustrating to see the Williams family treat the jumper (and the club) as a family heirloom that they can dictate. Fos Williams stands head and shoulders above everyone at Port Adelaide, but no individual is bigger than the club, and the jumper predates his Port career by 48 years. The level of entitlement here is annoying to see.

I should clarify here that I’d love to see it as a home jumper, but if we wore it in a home showdown and for ANZAC round I’d be very happy with that alternative too.
