Well you're giving me a good laugh Mark, must be my Cornish sense of humour coming through. I was born in Adelaide and my father played for Pt Adelaide (a long time ago) as a teenager before I started work in a large Doctor's practice in Pt Adelaide (had to work Sat morning). I used to go to watch Port's with an honorary Uncle and Auntie. He also ghad played for Ports. It is really in the blood. I haven't lived in Adelaide for a long time, we have moved around OZ and have been in Melbourne since 1979. Our son used to barrack for Collingwood until Ports became part of the AFL. Never barracked for the Crows as I felt they had stopped Port becoming the first SA team in AFL, Port wanted to do it but were stopped.
Last year on Grand Final Day I was working as a volunteer in one of our local op shops and I decorated the place with Port Power memorabilia. Quite a few people came in and said good luck.
We'll be watching the games while in Bali, friends from Adelaide are going with us and they barrack for Port as well, we watched them last year while we were over there.
