Port got up over North and West could not get anything up last week.

Hard to see Port losing this.

Port by 6 goals.

Expecting a bumper crowd for this one, can't wait to get in amongst those Wolves fans.

Pear ressies by shizloads.

Fair to say if you get there about 2pm you’ll still get a park on Milner road no problems!

Pear by 80

Simon Wong to be best on ground!

Yep, well given the game's at Alberton, I dare say you would get a park on Milner Rd.

Pretty sure you're right considering the game is at Alberton.

and given the way Port attendances have fallen off a cliff, you'll likely get a park in Queen St at 2pm.

Is the Alberton average still better than Noarlunga? Serious question.

Alex, we should probably move this discussion to another thread but I don't know how to that. No doubt average attendances at Alberton are still far better than Noarlunga, but the gap is narrowing. The fact that your own supporters didn't know you were playing at home this week is evidence of the diminished place the Mapgies hold in their thinking. Of the 'Big 4', Glenelg and Sturt are now consistently the crowd-drawers. I make this observation by feel, not solid stats. What are your thoughts?

Minor detail.

Mate the Magpies don’t exist in my eyes anymore.

I don’t care for the Power reserves either.

I do follow the sanfl still as a neutral supporter though.

I do follow the sanfl still and I'm hoping to get a seat on the Glenelg Bandwagon.

EFA.

Pretty confident the 5"2" Jack Strange will not be lining up at CHB....

Good fella Strangey, can never question his endeavour.

Are you calling Port liars?

Glenelg did bring me much joy in the late 80’s and 90’s so it’s possible.

I agree with you, that's why it was a genuine question. South have always been the strugglers so wondering if things had fallen to that level yet. It would not have surprised me. Nothing against South, definitely (probably like most people) the team I support 2nd. The Power-Magpies merger damaged the Magpies brand in order to help the Power. It is what it is, I have learned to live with it and still go. Clearly the droves of fans who no longer attend Magpies games have not accepted it and are the majority..

With all due respect, what a load of shit.
