Round 21 Port Adelaide v Centrals @ Alberton

[Jim05]

Ahh statistics. It's because when Port play away more home team supporters go, as they think they may see a Port defeat.
Until, they count supporters from each team at the gate, we don't know how any teams supporters really travel.

Yes how hard would it be for them to count which supporters go for what team? The guys on the gate have 2 clickers, as you walk in they ask "who do you follow?", okay thats a click for the away side etc etc.That would be a great stat and then once and for all we can see what supporters attend what matches

[Booney]

So what would the Norwood fan at Adelaide Oval for Port V Sturt last week have said?

OK then the SANFL will have to break the budget and buy 3 clickers then

Just goes to show, no matter where they are on the ladder, Port Adelaide was, is and always will be the biggest show in the SANFL.

Probably true, biggest show in SANFL but laughing stock and failure in AFL, perhaps they should of just stuck to the SANFL

And yet somehow still broke.

[daysofourlives]

Will the military be available to control the supporters?

That's a bit harsh on the Maggies supporters wildcat

Oh, hang on, with the bye, are there a heap of Norwood supporters heading to this one, yeah?

Yeah right, like we would go to Alberton
Seriously should be a cracker, ive got country footy on otherwise id love to go. Still torn over who i want to win this one, would love Centrals to lose but dont want Port to make finals

Still scratching my head over this Jim

[Jim05]

Yep heading up to Nuri on saturday to watch a few mates run around and try to get a kick, u not heading up there Days?

[cargo_art]

Port fans travel better than any other side.

Worst offender - Norwood (historically the worst).

Which history book are you reading? I'd like to read about these facts that you can obviously back up......

[cargo_art]

It's the reason for Port v Norwood games at the Parade you might get 6,000 - 8,000, and the equivilant game at Alberton youu might get 5,500 - 6,000.
Why?
Because Norwood fans don't travel.
This season Port have the best away games crowds..fact.
North, Centrals and Glenelg aren't far behind either.

[mickey]

So we have worked out very few norwood supporters will be turning up Saturday, fair enough I guess seeing that they are not playing...

Any bulldog supporters coming down salisbury hwy...

I understand you may not have read some of the postings on the first page. I'd be interested to know where you get your "fact" from.

[Booney]

I too agree that Port away crowds are somewhat inflated in recent times as the home team fans come along with the anticipation of beating the once all conquering Port Adelaide. Mostly West, South and North I would think.

North have the best representation at Alberton, even with traffic issues , Glenelg and surprisingly West too.

Port fans typically travel well to Richmond, Norwood and Unley.

[whufc]

Port to win in a close one imho.

No matter the result the minor premiership will come down to the following week against Norwood while Ports season is on the line and needing a win on their home deck to play finals i think they will get up.

[Booney]

With Central, Eagles and Glenelg to come, this one is very important for confidence.

And congrats to Josh and Mrs.Thurgood on the safe arrival of the little bloke.

The Ranga has been excellent for you blokes, you would think he was Port born and bred the way he goes about it.

[Zorro]

Are Centrals allowed to play at Alberton during the daytime?

Is this because North has always had the best record at Alberton, it has won nearly twice as many games there as any other club. This might explain the see of red that is always in the outer at Alberton, but doesn't explain your disdain for North.
