Should Port Power move to the Gold Coast?

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 a move to Adelaide Oval might stir interest?

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:

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.
