Taking advice on how to save your club from a Port fan. Seriously any mirrors at Alberton.

What’s next people from Wuhan telling us how to run the Central Markets

I have a better plan for us Centrals fans moving forward. Let’s raise money for our club whilst continuing to laugh at PAFCs demise.


Clearly an observation not advice. I couldn't give a toss about your club and it's red dirt, bull ant infested surrounds.

lol, as opposed to the possible tumble weed, bulldust infested outer at Alberton. :D :D


And stay away from our beaches, St Kilda's your beach. Worst thing they did was build that expressway :D

I think Semaphore is officially the beach of the Elizabeathians. Taken in a peaceful, bloodless coup. :D

Right on the gulf-front of Eagles territory these days. A bit like St Kilda (@LMA) in that regard. Personally, my clan enjoys the beach at the end of Hart Street, about 600 metres south of the Semaphore jetty.

We've generally only gone to Semaphore itself to catch a cheap movie. Or grab a feed of chips on the main drag, walk the jetty and perhaps spot any hauls of undersized catch at the far end.

Anyhoo, play on.

So when they can afford it in 2022 we just let them back it?


Has anyone commented on this? Its a fair call as was UK's post. The two or 3 Port supporters probably know they are wrong again.

Wrong about what? If Port can't afford to be in the SANFL they won't be that's fact and has been stated by Port fans on here. Dutchy posed a hypothetical question, to which a reply would be an opinion only, no wrong or right.

IMO. Unlike Adelaide, Port genuinely want a presence in the SANFL and if in 2 years time we are in a better financial position to re-enter the league then I think we'll try. Saying that, I still think there's a ways to go before you can celebrate just yet.

Has anyone from either club actually indicated that they won't have a 2nd tier team in the SANFL? Or is it solely media speculation that are looking for a story and keep their jobs?

Both have been asked and gave a straight bat answer.

KT "I suspect when all the dust settles that there will be a significant amount of change to our industry and the way we go about things. We have to expect that.

“I have no idea what that change looks like at this stage. I hope the Magpies are part of it. We’ll be doing everything we can to make sure that occurs but we should be expecting change. Over the next few months that will play out… that’s just the reality we need to get our heads around.”

New SA Football Commission chairman Rob Kerin has taken over the role with the SANFL in an extremely healthy financial position.Just hours after being named as the replacement for another former Liberal premier, John Olsen, Kerin told the league’s annual meeting on Tuesday night that debt was now only $2.8 million – its lowest since 1992. It is a staggering $34.2 million down from its position in 2013 – following another $4.5 million in repayments from land sales at Football Park – and is on track to retire all debt by 2021.

The debt of the eight member clubs has also dropped by $10 million in that period to $8 million after payments totalling another $2.5 million.
It is the fourth instalment of the $16 million being distributed to the clubs over seven years from the Football Park residential development.



SANFL AND ITS CLUBS ARE NOT GOING BANKRUPT ANYTIME SOON

Awesome. Just as well there's a high profile Aussie Rules footy club with that name nearby, hey.

Both have been asked and gave a straight bat answer.

KT "I suspect when all the dust settles that there will be a significant amount of change to our industry and the way we go about things. We have to expect that.

“I have no idea what that change looks like at this stage. I hope the Magpies are part of it. We’ll be doing everything we can to make sure that occurs but we should be expecting change. Over the next few months that will play out… that’s just the reality we need to get our heads around.”

Crows want to stay in SANFL

"The Adelaide Crows want to remain in the SANFL competition, but chief executive Andrew Fagan has conceded the decision may not remain with the club"


Why is it not the Crows decision? Surely the AFL are not trying to rule everything? No doubt Port with their history will stand up and fight this if it its true. Who would have thought? They could move to Alberton Oval and play there as thats a boutique gound. Could always bring in a Tassie Team ?

The AFL will cut list sizes next season. Talk is 35 players Right now they can have 44. 35 Players would not be enough to entertain a second team. Port could stay however but as a separate entity like they used to be and not the one club. They would have to have their zones back though so they can recruit a squad.
