Bit like the Power in season 05 with their premiership hangover eh? Difference Grim is, the Crows seem to be able to maintain a consistent membership base of 45 odd thousand.

Lets see how the Ca Swannies got this year with their hangover....I forsee supporters of the Ca Swannies vanishing after they lose a number of games!
As for the COWS their supporter base are all the other SANFL clubs where Port are just from Port. Like to see how those individual SANFL clubs would go on their own in the AFL.

Grim once you struggled to find a defence on Adelaide brilliant membership base you seem to focus on Sydney... although, can't do that now aayy, with them winning the flag and all

What defence to the COW membership...I dont give a stuff about how many members that fucked up club has and doubt the other AFL clubs give a shit either. You can have a million members that will mean jack shit unless you are able to get a Premiership. Just ask Collingwood!

Tradition? We've been in the AFL longer than the Power, have a knack of having the highest membership each year, have a knack of having 40,000 plus crowds (but you're 25,000 is ok), who gives a shit what a bunch of ferals did in the SANFL 50 years ago. All Port Adelaide does is share the same name. When it suits you you're tied to the Port Magpies, even your own club doesn't want to be associated with the Power. The Power burnt the Magpies, they hate each other, the Power left them almost broke. But you already knew that didnt you, being such a loyal, teadiditonal suporter?

Well if season 97 is anything to go by, the Swans will have to cap their membership this season. No doubt the Swans will average more people per home game this season than the Power could muster after their premiership victory. That wouldn't be hard though would it. The Power struggle to even sell out finals matches at Footy Park.

Is that true?

What a load of COW crap...Port Adelaide Magpies and Port Power love each other....the COWS are just making things up. As for the Ca Swannies getting 45.000 to a game out of a population of 4.5 million is not saying much!

How would a scum Sturt supporter know what is going on at Alberton? I think the COWS should worry about what is going on at their 'club' especially with the rumours of gay COWS and a certain staff member of the COWS who likes little boys!

So daft.
You seem very worried about us Grim, perhaps an infatuation with our football club?

When the Power has to compete with 9 NRL clubs and 1 Super 12 rugby club then I think you may have a point. To get 45,000 and much more at Telstra Stadium in Sydney is fantastic I would have thought.
You'd think Port being in AFL heartland would have no problems getting good crowds, particularly in a season after winning the premiership. Shame Port Shame!!!

Sounds like you're getting desperate now. Do you have any sources that can back up these claims?
