QI’m with Eddie on this one, Port Adelaide Magpies and Port Power are two completely different entities, their colours ARE NOT black and white and never have been.
And to Kochy and these other righteous Port flogs I ask : if the SANFL happened to be the biggest league in the country and Collingwood had joined the SANFL, would Port Adelaide allow them to wear a black and white jumper even on special occasions?
I’m confused Kochy, are you not proud of Port Powers black, white and TEAL?
While I hate to agree with Fat Eddie, he’s right. Can’t see where Kock can get away with his childish antics. The rules and agreement were set up when Port entered the comp. Should be end of story.
Port Adelaide are only asking to wear the Prison Bar jumper once a year.Last night home fixture Showdown V the Adelaide Crows.As per the agreement signed in 2007, for the heritage round..Which has now been cancelled.The PB was worn in the change room after the match.And for the photo shot on the ground in the goal square.
The expanded VFL has a very short memory of there finincial position in the 1980’s .When there competition almost fell over before the 8 Million given by Wce and the Bris L.And there 2 million dollar tv rights deal.
The arrogance of Victorians knows no bounds. If Port Adelaide need any advice, and I personally don’t think they do, I would recommend they contact Toddy to reminisce about 1982.
The AFL owe Port Power nothing, they have been propped up by the AFL most of their existence.
Swan 42, would you be happy for a team to enter the WAFL and wear black and white?
In 1990 when Port Adelaide tried to join the AFL before the Crows where formed.Port where allowed to wear there prison bar jumper.With an alternative jumper for the Collingwood games.

You always answer a question with a question.
Ok, let’s say Cunderdin Magpies or Busselton Magpies, you’d be fine with them entering the WAFL and wearing the black and white vertical stripes of Swan Districts would you?
