Holding the GF biggest losing margin is a record that everyone who doesn't follow, barrack, or support the Port Adelaide FC will rejoice in for years!

This rates with the Magpies only kicking 1-6 against North in the 1905 SANFL Grand Final.

My lifetime GFs v Port:

71 North 20 pt win
72 North 56 pt win
89 Port 94 pt loss
07 Geelong 119 pt win

Wedgie's teams in 4 GFs in my lifetime v Port + 101pts

Port are my Grand Final bitches. :lol:
(Bet Glenelg supporters would love to say that)

Oh well off to the best night in my life, have to work in the power failure oval at Alberton. Evidently 5000 there during the game but has dwindled right down to around 500, was looking forward to a great night stirring, now looks like it will be a dead night, offering hankies and tissues around

A Song For all you Port Supporters
We Are Geelong, The Greatest Team of All
We Are Geelong, We're Always on the Ball
We play the Game as it Should be played at Home or Far Away
Our banners Flying High From Dawn To Dark Down At Kardina Park

So Stand up and fight remember OUR tradition
Stand up and fight its always our ambition
Through out the game we fight with all our might
Because We're the MIGHTY Blue and White
And when the ball is bounced to the final bell
STAND UP AND FIGHT LIKE HELL.

This begs the question .....

Is it better to make the GF and lose by a huge margin or not make it at all?

Will this steel them for assault # 2 or set the young kids back for a few years?

Next year Tredders is 30, Chad is 29, Peter Burgoyne is 30, Lade is 32, Wilbur is 32, Brogan is 30, Wakes is gone. The young kids will need to bounce back quickly if the team is to get itself another crack before some of the older guys go.

An interesting statistical quirk today in the final result.

Geelong last won the flag in 1963, 44 years ago. Their final score was 163, Port's was 44!

Some credit where credit's due

Up until today Port exceeded all expectations and that counts for something - they did something 14 other teams couldn't

Geez, they just picked the wrong match to have a dirty day (very dirty day)

As an Eagles supporter, wasn't happy when S Burgoyne kicked that last goal. Just one more point to Geelong at that stage would have been great.....126!!

I'm not sure if this title is 100% right BPBRB, I don't think PAFC 1870, Booney MalleeBull (not sure if he'll be back to appreciate the record), Hafey, MP, DA et al will love this record.... :wink:

All we need now is for Port to lose the Slowdown. There will be a few Geelong chants around.
