Glenelg V Port Grand Final

[LMA]

I saw an elderly woman in an old Sturt jacket heading to the Coles at Port Mall shopping centre

When I was a married man I lived in the heart land of Port Adelaide.
I learned the myth of all people living in that area all supporting Port was that a myth.
I was firstly Torrens then Eagles had Glenelg fans living across the road

Sorry Port fans but it’s a myth everyone in the port heartland supports port

Not sure you're on the money there mate given your survey area consists of two houses in one street.

Sure, there's supporters of all clubs living in the area but in the main the Port is surrounded by Port people. It's increasing too, everyone who moves into the area is told what's best for them and they should probably abide.

Say what you like Booney I lived in Taperoo across the road was a Glenelg supporting family living next door to a power players parents house
You May bleed black and white and teal but I lived in that suburb

May I add, I lived in that same street, it was quite long I didn't know everyone but the 2 households I associated with one was definitely Port as mentioned above and the other weren't football fans. Thats 66% but over a mull with the nons I reckon 100% Port street.

Yet that street held an Eagles/port house s glenelg house the next Main Street had Glenelg fans
End result if your boys play sanfl in that street they play for the eagles just editing this I posted this eating breakfast at Villis
The other thing I guess if port drafts these guys from the Eagles they know about losing grand finals like port did this year sorry had to say that !!

Nice edit

She wouldn't even know where Glenelg is

Two premiership legends lost in two days.

“It’s like the AFL don’t even care if we don’t go back to back......”

*paraphrasing the great Digger from the “Coodabeens” who’s been following footy for 140 years now*

Well done Bays - I was 13 the last time you won a flag and congrats to all the long-suffering supporters in the SA Footy family

Definitely the year for drought-breakers.

Still think they should play " A Tiger for Me" for old times sake though

Agree with every word that Bedge said

*edit* - 39k attendees and probably not one of them saw Glenelgs last flag at Adelaide Oval

ahem, i was there in 73, carey and cornes were also there lol
