We currently have the best lineup of merch in the AFL. So why is everyone suddenly hellbent on digging up all this horrendous "Port Power" merch from yesteryear? It was humorous for a while when Hamish and Adam Hartlett did it, but carn....

I still wear my old Port Power jacket to games - it refuses to die (great quality). And I'm still sitting on the old Footy Park bench cushions!

You bought it new and it probably retains some emotional significance for you.

Wish some of my '97 stuff still fit, it was good quality and very black. We aced a lot of our merch in late 90s before it starting getting icky.

Nonetheless, I wouldn't go out of my way to buy anything Port Power I didn't get at the time.

Yes. I kinda agree with you about buying old stuff on line, particularly when it was pretty bog-standard gear. But I think folks are doing it as a memorabilia/investment thing as well, which is understandable I suppose. I'd be unlikely to, but if the right item came up; you never know

Yeah I did pay $18 for a 2008 clash Guernsey in 2013 and don't regret it at all.

Snapbacks are massively popular, especially the retro variety as to display maximum ironic fan points.
ie I was there in '97 though maybe not really.

2008 will never be cool.

I get that. But some of the purchases that I've seen bob up around here would bring a tear to a glass eye. By all means buy what you want, just don't post it all in here, because the club reads it and is likely to bring out a "Port Power Est 1997" range off the back of it.

Surely they'd understand it's a piss take?

You'd hope so....

Yeah probably. I'm just trying to justify my stance against this merch.

Literally can't remember anything about 2008 except a final round demolition job on Norf, which was unusual as it wasn't a final and also cause we beat Norf. I think Adam Thomson done some alright stuff too. Also the year I joined bigfooty.

I can't remember bugger all from 2008-2010. At least 2011 and 2012 were memorable for the wrong reasons.

Next week the club "finds a box" of unsold 1997 hats and sells them at a premium...

We're just assembling a war chest of Port Power merch in preparation for a mass burning in the event that a future administration goes full retarp.

THESE HATS WAS JUST REMOVED FROM GARAGE WHERE MOST WERE HANGING ON THE WALL WHILE OTHERS WAS ON DISPLAY SHELVES. I HAVE GIVEN THEM A QUICK WIPE AS MOST WERE DUSTY. OVERALL CONDITIONS ARE EXCELLENT, SOME DOESN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE ITS BEEN WORN. HOWEVER ALL THESE HATS ARE BEING SOLD USED AND AS IS. SO TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AT THE PHOTO PROVIDED AS IT IS PART OF DESCRIPTIONS.
