At the moment Glenelg, Sturt and Centrals all have built up reasonable winning/non-losing streaks against Port.

How do they rank on the all-time list of winning/non-losing streaks by any club against Port?
I suspect they are all high on the list...

IIRC, we're currently on our equal highest, of about 6 or 7. I didn't realise you guys had racked up that many, but I suppose a few last year and couple this year, you must be pushing 5 or so.

P.S. Any chance you could change your avatar. I was 9 when we heard that match on the radio. Only saving grace was we beat you when we next met, amazing turn-around (across seasons and all)...

Bays haven't lost in the last 8 ...

Most in a row Norwood have defeated Port is 10 from 7/7/84 to 5/7/87. Those were good times

The Bays have five ATM, but with a draw in June 2007 and two wins prior to that we have a Psuedo says a non-losing streak of 8 games.

think I went to eight of them. Great times, including three at Alberton from memory

I was a bit surprised when I first saw '8' mentioned, but realising that a draw took place the Subject of the thread was a bit misleading for an '8' result.

Would have to be glenelg's glory days to have 8 non losses to Port. Might take another GF to break the run, eh!

2 at Alberton, 2 at Norwood, and 6 at Football Park. SANFL loved Norwood v Port Adelaide matches at Football Park

Bummer, I was convinced it was three at Alberton. Obviously the trip from the other side of town to Alberton / Footy Park just blended in to each other. Certainly, games at the Parade were always jam packed and you had to be there by midday.

Thanks Spelly

It looks like there is a fair chance Norwood's record of 10 will be broken soon with the 3 current streaks belonging to the current 3 top teams, and Port not showing any improvement lately.

So to be a pedant our actual current winning streak is five.

I'm pretty sure there was a run of 3 at Alberton, but it was actually more recently -late 90s or early 2000s.

Reckon the Peckers managed 1 in a row on a few occasions!

One win on four separate occasions, as well as the three wins in a row in Round 18 1986, 1st Semi of 1986 and Round 9 1987.

It was three on both occasions, Interceptor. That 10 match streak included two wins at Alberton, but the previous meeting at Alberton before that streak was also a win for Norwood (Round 2 1983).

Round 11 1999, Round 18 2000 and Round 22 2001 was the more recent three match winning streak.
