If that's the case, he might make us look better than we currently do...

Like I said in the private message ages ago, you can have a few bevvies on me. It almost makes it worth meeting yours truly, doesn't it? ;)

If there is, that would be a great idea.

If not, beer still tastes good...

What is the cost per member for Essential membership??

Without me having to ring PAFC, does anybody know if you can upgrade at anytime??


Looking at getting me and the mrs a Essential membership tickets but with a 18month daughter it might be a bit hard as beer and football just work so well together


Would the missus want to be the designated driver on game day?

My wife and I have the Essential Power memberships, and we're off to watch the Round 19 game against Collingwood, and possibly Round 7 against GWS in Canberra. My wife is keen on the latter, as The Lion King is playing in Sydney at the time. Maybe I'll slip her a couple of tickets to that in her Christmas stocking...


After spending the day in the members yesterday at the cricket I bit the bullet and went and got me and the Mrs Essential power membership today looking forward to the season already!

Dunno if it's for a bar or bay or what...

But saw this yesterday in the Southern Stand opposite the merchandise stall.

Club tie was a shocker circa '97/98!

Incredible news for port if it amounts to a new deal before christmas!

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-12-09/b ... n-new-deal

To re-sign our skipper and avoid the lure of free agency speaks volumes about the character of the man and the environment we are creating.

Onya Boaky! :heart:

Nicely done, Carey.

It's a pretty good package for the price, and I like the idea of a guaranteed Grand Final ticket, should we make it.

Not having a reserved seat in the Western Stand at Adelaide Oval doesn't bother me, as long as I get a seat.

The lads have training session at Alberton this morning at 9:30. This session is open to club members, and there will also be a free BBQ.

Count me in.

General rule of thumb on here FC is a detailed summary of the training session for all the suckers that have to work, so don't forget your pen and paper ;)

My tip for todays re-signing- judging by the cryptic clue on the PAFC website, is Hartlett.
