Well looking at both sides yesterday I'd be rather be ginger than bald. Do other clubs have as many Bald footballers as Port do ?
And Port had a first game player yesterday and he had a very receding hair line :lol: .
So would you rather be bald or ginger ?

Premature balding is a sign of anabolic steroid use.... of course it may be coincidental.
Recessive hair colouring pops up more frequently in inbred populations....

I wonder what percentage of good sportsmen are left-handed - my impression is that it is higher than population distribution would predict.

The same reason all Port Magpies have shorter than average legs, but, longer than average backs.

Wouldn't say we are all ginger however, you do have Colville, Cica, Pedler, Lindsay. I think thats all you may want to count Pedler's little bro and Tim Inkster has a shade of ginger. I know CD would rather be ginger than the grey he is!!!

Mate, you're the one that started with the snappy tone...

It was just a casual observation that you seem to have a lot of bloodnuts in your league team.

Still grumpy from waking up in 2007 with a Premiership hangover...?

Fat Alberton, that is a terrible thing to say.
