But I love those sort of little traditions that clubs pass down, that make them different from other football clubs. The captain always wearing #1 is a Port 'thing', and it's sad to see another club tradition (as small as people may think it is) fade away in the modern era, even if it's not my clubs.


How many times do we have to repeat that the Captain wearing number 1 hasn't always been so at Port. I repeat ad nauseum that Geof Motley wore number 17 for the 8 years he captained Port and John Cahill initially wore number 14. It has been a tradition for about as long as the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne. Not very long in the history of the club.

Errrrr, I know I look silly but Tex said we gotta do this, I'm not sure if I remember how he told me though.


I reckon Tex and Rory would have similar IQ’s wouldn’t they?

Couldn’t agree more

My favourite was at Arsenal, each game the captain decides to wear long or short sleeves. The rest of the players have to follow suit.

Quirky, irrelevant but it was unique to them.

Those who are tearing up their memberships are probably the same fickle "supporters" who were doing something else while 13,583 of us watched the 2012 season come to an end against Brisbane at Football Park. I didn't miss them then, I won't miss them now.

Back in a minute, just going to read the 5 pages on Carlton's co-captains, Sydney's captaincy trio, Melbourne's co-captains, GWS' co-captains, Gold Coast's co-captains and Adelaide's co-captains.

I'm sure I read how much of a rabble Port were for not having their captain named yet. Who is Hawthorn's captain this year?

You ******* jokers make me laugh, you all sink the boot in as soon as you can but you love us, deep down inside you love us, you wouldn't come in here and post so much if you didn't care.

Maybe the Wines/Jonas narrative isn't as clear cut as the media has made it out to be.

What if the club is legitimately taking it's time with the decision, taking into consideration a bolter who has the respect and admiration of the group within the 4 walls, who mightn't be thought of as leadership material by the externals?


They have been together, living out of each others pockets 6 days a week since late October, they know who their Captain is. If they don't there are more problems that many suspect at Alberton.


Have the Hawks named their captain, @Dutchy?

There's 5 pages on Port's co-captains mate, hardly a mention of the other dual/joint club captains. Why so?

probably because no other clubs supporters make such a big deal about it and move on. Seems to be dominating all Port talk for the last month for not only media but Port supporters.
