Port Adelaide rumoured to merge with a side in the Western Suburbs.
Not sure who but I will do anything I can for it not to be with the Eagles.
No way in hell sorry but no no no
Join me Eagles fans/members/supporters
NO WAY PORT!!!!!!

A Port/Glenelg union would be interesting. 8) ;)
But I would have thought the other western teams would prefer to see Port go under....

There could be black, white, blue, green, and gold, hoops with an emblem that looks like the product of a mating between an eagle and magpie.
But, I guess red, white, and black, for "Westport" would be more manageable, if less funny.

I would have thought it's either Port as-is or fold ... a merger doesn't make any sense when the AFL animal has taken the identity anyway.

Exactly, the whole idea was to keep the Port Adelaide identity in the SANFL. A merger would defeat the purpose.

Even more of a shame if they fold now that we've established that the Magpies are the original club and the Power have stolen their history.

Once a rumour gets to ten threads it goes into the fact pile ;)

And isn't that a shame for lovers of sport everywhere. :D

All he needs do now is join Jarman and Brian Leys at Perth to make them easily the most detestable football club in the history of Australian football.

Both excellent ideas. I can't decide which is better so "Pest Wort Adelaide" sounds good to me.
