Should Port Power move to the Gold Coast?

Should Port Power move to the Gold Coast?

Postby Dutchy » Mon Jun 23, 2008 8:09 pm

lets have a think -

Declining crowds
Inflate their membership by including AAMI members
Home ground is no longer a home ground
Teal is used by the Gold Coast's NRL and NBL teams
Have little history, makes them easier to take them from their home base
Eberts head would fit in up there
let the Magpies go back to their real home
Tredders could start acting classes at Movieworld to perfect his bow


Soooo many positives, I reckon it could happen!...thoughts?

only negative I can see is they might have to give up sponsoring a netball team :shock:

Then again that will only improve their credability

until Port start to recieve Well Fare from the AFL like some Vic clubs have in the past to remain a float then the answer will always be no.

Maybe, if they then got rid of the black and white, the coach, and didn't call themselves "Port" anything..... :lol:
Maybe, we could resurrect the old Norwood/Sturt SANFL merger offer in return for control of the AFL licence. :wink:

when kuwait was invaded in 1990 (i think) i thought if they gave saddam 'port adelaide' he could retreat out of kuwait & everyone was a winner :shock: :shock: :lol:
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

I dont mind that they support a netball team. Nobody else seems to care about the T-Birds. They deserve sponsorship as much as the AFL clubs as they are in a national comp.
