Mega Thread The Port Store Mega Thread

I dont have the Ware one anymore as i swapped it with someone. But this is a photo from a few years ago, the chaps and milf guernseys are in the top corners

That grid iron #27...Boing and sploosh!

Give a "millennial" a phone and copious selfies will ensue.

Can someone please explain to me who the f@#king Millenials are meant to be? I originally thought it was people born after the year 2000 but I've been told recently that it's actually just Gen Y rebranded.

I was born in 1985, so 15 years old in 2000. Does that make me a Millenial? And if so, why don't I have FB and take 27 million selfies before my morning shit?

Really? I have absolutely no recollection of there ever being the logo beneath the chevrons. Guess it was only for a few games.

My kingdom for another Monolith.

 

[Macca19]

what number or whos is the bottom left??

No number.

You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Port board meme.

None of this controversy was inevitable and none of it is the fault of the board as a whole

Anyway after like 2 years of trying to get home shorts at a reasonable price, I finally get them and my girlfriend steals them to wear at netball. No complaints.

At least i've got the aways.

This is a point that needs to be acknowledged.

From his perspective, he probably felt that people here would be happy to share in the common interest of a PAFC merch haul.

Probably a slight misread on his behalf too.

I guess the mrs really does wear the pants.

I still feel like this mainly benefits me

Was going to ask for pics, but....

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Chokito right now....

 

[Powerstufff]

Just catching up on this thread this morning. In summary:

• Chokito uses connections at the gear store to get a bunch of PIs put aside for him.
• People lose their minds over nothing.
• Chokito defends himself but gets caught in his own web of half truths so just starts trolling everyone.
• Even more people lose their minds over nothing.
• Uncle fella gate.

What a time to be alive.

Apologies to Far Side, the Gear Shop, and Chokito (who I've met in WA and is a good bloke).

You don't get it? It says Port Store but they are selling tea pots. Classic.

 

[Willsy10]

Did I miss a sale or something over the weekend?

 

[edgie]

Probably a slight misread on his behalf too.

"Hey guys, here's a pic of me in the latest merch I've acquired"
Thumbs up.

"Hey guys, here's an awesome story with me gloating about preferential treatment at the Port Store, where I've only ever actually been like, twice"
Thumbs down.

Why can't the ISC guernseys that the average punter can buy be the same fabric and fit as the player issue guernseys, and then price them accordingly? I always thought they were until I went to the port store one day and they had a few of the authentic players guernseys for sale, they were double the price from memory but worth it in my opinion.

I've got a bad feeling about this, Harriet.

IMO they should do a run at the start of every season.

The PI guernseys are probably too expensive to just stock, but if they did a pre-order run every season they'd sell pretty well I reckon. It would also mean that people who aren't going to fit into the size worn by an elite male athlete are still going to be able to get them and wear them proudly.

It's Gen Y with a new logo.

 

[chiwigi]

I've still got about ten guernseys unframed sat in the bottom of my closet.

I put some up for sale a while back, nobody wanted them.

But yeah, it's all Chokito's fault!

 

[Alex_Kidd!]

Chokito: Hear ye, hear ye. I have something to say about this board and everyone on it!

Doctor Feel: Aw, look. That cutie wants to say something cute. [Portia, Zakk Wylde, El_Scorcho, Edgie, Powerstuff and Finbarr all murmur] Shut up, you bums, shut up! Go ahead, angel.

Chokito: Ahem. everyone on this board are nothing more than evil, salty keyboard warriors who hate this club and it's poor attempt at a fire sale!

Doctor Feel: Good God! Chokito, I support, you know, almost any prejudice you can name, but this completely warranted salty-phobia sickens me. You and your grey trackpants and PI jumpers ain't welcome here no more. Macca, show them the exit to the board.

Macca: There's an exit?!

Worst logo change since BankSA.

It doesn't make sense in my head, Millenial does not sound like a tag for people born in the 80s.

So what's Gen Z called now? The Techromancers? Futureflogs United? Generation Netflix? Surely it doesn't go Gen X, Millenials, then back to Gen Z.

Does it?

Digital Natives....which is also untrue.

Yeah I picked up a Kane Cornes PI in 2012 and have since put on about 10kg so it's not something I would wear out in public.
