Two hours later of him giving his own biased account with out even taking a breathe ....note none of which is giving an answer to the question he was asked ....Eddy should have been a politician.
What Eddie said was spot on. You cant just stroll i with an outdated contract that isnt supported by anything that is in the current game (i.e. no heritage round) and point to it saying they can legally wear the black and white. They signed the colours and pattern away when they joined the AFL. They have no legal or moral claim to wear the guernsey and shouldnt be allowed.. and for the record, l support neither Port Adelaide or Collingwood.
@@onlymurgs Mate. If Heritage Round does not exist, then the contract is null and void. Very simple. Also, the fact only Eddie knew about the removal of Heritage Round is akin to insider trading. It's further proof that Eddie McGuire has had the AFL in his back pocket for well over a decade.
@@canadianbacon3021 Not at all. Port were free to make a contract and go with what those conditions were. Other clubs knew about the heritage round being ended. Port chose to specify the jumpers could be worn during heritage rounds and did not implement a clause to allow for another occasion if heritage round should no longer be a thing. They were free to research the contract conditions and find out more about the sustainability of heritage round. they did not, got a bad deal for themselves and now they are crying about it.
So Eddie is admitting to receiving exclusive information that heritage round had an expiry date and then signed a contract in bad faith when the other party did not have all the relevant facts. From a guy who wistfully talks about gentlemen's handshakes.
No, he’s saying amongst his peers most hated it and they knew it wouldn’t last. Eddie didn’t have to sign anything. It was Port trying to get permission to wear the colours and jumper they agreed to abandon to join the AFL. Outside of an all-league heritage round he didn’t want them wearing it or promoting it, because he knew in the future they’d want to rebrand and wear it more and more. And he was right.
@@MrNetMan11 I can see what you're saying and for the record, I'm a bit of a stickler and think Eddie is right about holding Port to their agreements when joining the league. It's clear Port is not holding it's end of this particular contract with Collingwood by selling the jumpers - it's crazy they're even drawing attention to the contract given their in breach of it. But even if I accept your interpretation that Eddie and thr clubs knew heritage round was on its way out, it's clear Port didn't know that because they hinged the entire agreement on being able to play once a year in the jumper on this round. It's kinda silly that they limited the agreement to playing on heritage round when really I think the spirit is that they wanted to wear it once a year. The fact is, I think Eddie is lying when he says he knew heritage round was on the way out, that's just hid usual spin to distract from the fact that he has yet again supported an inititive he eventualky dislikes down the track - just like COLA. The irony remains because he is effectively caught in a lie. On the one hand he seeks to save face by admitting he signed a contract in bad faith but then also wants to be seen as having higher standards of honestly because he's so trustworthy, his hanshakes and word is as good as a contract. He can't have it both ways.
@@Eiraqucam Technically the agreement would have been once every two years since it has to be a Port home game. I think the problem here stems from allowing Port to claim they’re a 150 year old club rather than a 24 year old club. Normally no one would really care, but they just happened to clash with Collingwood Magpies who have always made a huge point of never substantially changing their jumper or colours. I mean, many Port supporters were probably also Collingwood supporters pre-1997.
Agree entirely with the first comment. The insufferable Eddie speaks about Lindsay Fox saying to have a friend you need to be a friend, what utter drivel when he then goes onto admit he knew heritage round was going to cease to exist when he signed the contract and then hangs his hat on Port manufacturing some jumpers breaking the conditions of the contract. He's a weasel, always has been.
as a swans supporter, i really do sympathise with Port, there’s something about a heritage jumper that is so good, brings in the rich tapestry of our great game. I would be devastated if The swannies lost the opportunity to wear the old south Melbourne strip in games or to be merchandise for the fans. At the end of the game, i think this discussion should transcend business and contracts and focus on the fans and the rich history of our game
Exactly. I’ve got Brisbane fan friends and they love the fact that in every Melbourne game they wear a Fitzroy styled jumper, I honours and respects the traditions and the past of a rich in history football club
I’m a Collingwood supporter and it doesn’t bother me if they wear that guernsey. Eddie pipe down it’s just for the showdowns which is a massive thing in SA.
Its not really about the jumpers though is it? Its about the brand, the black and white stripes, the magpie and of course the merchandising dollars. Before I watched this I was on Port's side I think but now seeing that they have made merch that could be mistaken for Collingwood stuff I think my opinion has changed.
I'm having a great laugh that Port Adelaide Power celebrate a 150th when they've been in the AFL since 1997... That "two team one club" nonsense and them dropping "Power" from their name came about when they were on the brink of bankruptcy in 2010-11 so they decided to merge their history with their SAFL side. What a bunch of clowns
@@marcusmansfield2019 Yeah absolutely. You can see Eddie and Kochie and Kane all trying to cover off each others arguments like little kids who are in trouble. But Mum, he did this, and he said that, and only Collingwood are allowed to wear that colour! Waah waah.
Re the contract: Eddie said he co-authored the contract, with a clause that states Port could wear the bars in heritage round, knowing full well that heritage round was being shelved. Then he signed it. Appears very dodgy. What’s the point of the contract? Basically to strip Port of prison bar use entirely. Would have to see the whole contract, but I think Eddie regretted that admission as the show went on 😬😬😬😬😬
How is that dodgy? It's just understanding the landscape around the agreement, and acknowledging that the deal is time-limited. Nothing dodgy just business. The cancellation of the heritage round then they have failed to manage their own business. Although Eddie said they were aware that the deal was time limited.
As a crows fan that doesn’t like Port Adelaide, I think a new contract agreement should happen so they can wear the prison bars for showdowns, it celebrates SA footy heritage and it doesn’t hurt Collingwood at all.
That's what I was thinking. It's a way to honour the combination of the two clubs. Would look pretty cool too if the teal was at a thinner width to accent the black
@@anthonywyndham Yes there’s many options with the uniform. I think maybe this is more than just about the uniform, they are both Presidents/ex and are in media so they are similar in ways, battle of egos?
@@SirSSau I honestly think it is Kochie just trying to take more than they are entitled to. As Eddie said, they' have even started putting the magpie on their scarf etc. If I were the AFL I would be putting a stop to that straight away. I think Eddie is right to be annoyed, especially at the likes of Kane Korns who continually brings it up to be annoying and without understanding even the most simple fo contracts. Collingwood has the right to their mascot, and the shades (black and white are not colours) they have chosen, represented in the way that they are and Port can suck a fat one as far as I'm concerned. It will be nice watching them lose a prelim this year or even better a GF.
@@kindregardless I don't know, it seems like a lot of time and effort to make us look like NFL refs. However Port playing in that jumper would make my dad happy, so that's something,
Arguments been settled since 2007. Been signed off by 2 south Australians and a Victorian. Port Adelaide needs to stop sooking and obey by the contract.
Answer is no and will always be a no. Port signed off to it. Can't call it Vic bias when two south Australians signed it. You want magpies then go make your own league. Tassie or nt would be happy to take your spot. Funny how the aditude changed when no points will be given to wearing the jumper. Lol was happy to just pay the fines lol. Poor koshie
@@Karrthus yeah and they will win. Trademarks will kill them. And also signing off to a contract and not obeying them. Port Adelaide came into the AFL as power. Not magpies. As the video said it's been signed by the ceo of port Adelaide also by gill and Eddie. Not Eddie's fault AFL scraped heritage round. Port Adelaide should of looked at it properly instead of signing it. Lol port Adelaide been sucked In by a smart man lol. Even has more brains then koshie. Fancy calling it Vic bias when two south Australians signed it. Lol someone should tell koshie that gills south Australian and politics should be left out in a game of footy. Why did koshie drag in the premier of sa for? Even the premier don't even know where gill comes from either. Lol
Simple conditional agreement, if A then B. A is Port to wear prison bar during heritage rounds, B is Port are not allowed to profit from the sale of the gurnseys. If A doesn't exist, i.e. no more heritage rounds, then B doesn't have any legs to stand on either.
Problem is that Port are claiming the contract stands and that playing against Adelaide is a heritage game....when it's not. The fact that they have made and distributed the jersey is against the contract they are claiming that they have a right to wear it. Pure hypocrisy.
You clearly have no clue how contracts work....both provisions are distinct, and don’t rely on each other. Port confirming they won’t profit from the sale stands on its own, and they clearly have breached this. This is what makes it so ironic that Port are trying to argue the interpretation of the ‘heritage rounds’ part when they are clearly in breach of another contract clause
no club owns the rights to colors, the jumpers don't even look the same so whats the problem? if like 4 clubs in the premier league can have pretty much the exact same strip and not have any problem or arguments then why cant we? we have clash strips for a reason and every team should have one......
Hilarious Eddie saying: “Stop talking and let me talk..” Pot, kettle anyone? But Eddie is right on this point. Port joined the AFL knowing who Collingwood were and their colours. Stiff.
It's ambiguous, can a foreign entity not legally owned by Port Adelaide FC sell a commercial line black and white prison bars guernseys, can they use a bird that closely resembles a magpie but it is not actually a magpie, what constitutes a heritage round dose the AFL get to decide what constitutes a heritage round, did Port sign the argument under the assumption the heritage round would continue, the AFL allows Richmond and Essendon to have a similar guernsey design, they allow Carlton and North Melbourne to wear the same colour but in a different shade, is it lawful for them to have a particular rule for one club and not another. Can Port wear black and white prison bars at every other point other than when their playing (warming up, sitting on the bench, training). How enforceable is that agreement.
I’m no fan of Eddy, but he’s right here. The Magpie is an Collingwood AFL trademark, it would be like if someone used the Nike tick on their sports brand, it’s trademark infringement.
there not taking the magpie there taking the design. just like essendon and the tigers. same but different. its understandable that port are mad about this.
Koshie was going to break the law lol. Old money bags going to pay fines lol cause port Adelaide is broke. Eddie is right port Adelaide trying to be Collingwood. Let's get a tv presenter to lead the club lol sounds real Eddie like to me lol.
@@dalelc43 Yeah you got a point but does it change Eddie's hypocrisy? I think it just emphasises it, wants Port to become a net giver but signs contracts preventing them to do so. What's that saying about having your cake?
Eddie knowing that the Heritage round was going to be dissolved the following year when NO OTHER club or president knew simply stinks of corruption. How is it that McGuire has faced no backlash for signing a contract in poor faith knowing that it would not be honored in the years to come? 5:15 - rich for Eddie to tell Kane to stop talking over him when he has always talked over his co-hosts whenever they're saying something negative against Collingwood. Example: constantly talking over Kane between 6:15 to 6:50. He just HAS to get the last word in (9:15) for every arguement. McGuire comes across as the classic schoolyard bully, that becomes a petulant child when he doesn't get his way. He raises his voice at others but cowers when they do the same
Crooked, corrupt, bully, fragile ego, has to get last word, likes to project an aura of innocence and good faith, when he is nothing like that. Look at the scandals he’s been involved with, and the people he associates with. Reminds me of a famous crook that I don’t want to mention because I’d rather they’d fade into oblivion.
The other clubs were aware of it as well so take a step down of your pedestal Eddie is spot on they gave port an inch and now they want a mile. All of the clubs would have known about the heritage games coming to an end because the AFL would have informed them. And I'm a staunch Tiger's supporter who is no Eddie fan. In saying that Cane is a flog who loves to give his opinion on everyone but when anyone states fact he repeats a question that has already been answered. A real peanut.
Been there, done that, mate. As this whole thing including Zebra stripes/prison bars debacle is getting out of whack quickly then we do the shopping. 🤪🤷♂️
Port Adelaide was Established in 1870 and tried to enter the AFL in 1990. Any South Australian Football fantatic would understand how important this is. What you have is the Adelaide Crows spawned from the SANFL against Port Adelaide who won 34 Premierships to the end of 1996. I'm a Collingwood man but Port should be able to wear this jumper because of their history & Success. Swans & Brisbane do it with South Melbourne & Fitzroy Respectively.
Port should be able to wear the prison bars. However, it should be 2 shades of pink. Which is the real Port heritage. Collingwood was wearing black and white long before Port.
Geelong blue and white .......carlton blue and white .....north melbourne ...light blue and white ..... Any nonAFL person would think Eddy Maguire is the spokesperson and CEO of the AFL. Im glad he is not.
@@carlosrandel7641 not quite. The blues are the navy blues, North are light blue and Geelong are predominately white with hoops. Port are trying to be black and white stripes with a magpie.
Interesting, I reckon AFL should do another contract because when Heritage round was drop so too is contract been terminated on bases of Heritage round, it’s miss leading Eddie. We had same problem with our footy jumper as we were true blue n white stripe Kangaroos but when join another league because AFL restructuring country footy we had to change to Port Power jumper. There was already one team with blue n white stripes n another team blue jumper n white V. Life goes on and we won Premiership with new jumper.
If I was a Collingwood supporter, this stuff would drive me up the wall. Wgaf if Port wears a black and white jumper occasionally?! And same thing goes for Port. Who cares?!.
Because the black and white striped jumper is Collingwood’s intellectual property. Imagine how much of a stink Richmond would kick up if a team started playing in yellow and black jumper. Each team has their own logo, mascot and colours. Port Adelaide POWER are Teal, Black and White. Everything that happened before 1997 is irrelevant to their so called “heritage”
@@jeremyclarksonfragrance but seriously who cares. Fremantle have played in red and white, I’ve never heard Sydney go mental. It’s just a pissing contest between McGuire and Koch. No one cares.
All of you don’t have a true passion, spirt, culture and tradition that Port Adelaide has. Men that were legends for Port Adelaide in the SANFL wore that gurney and lived by the passion and desire of black and white prison bars. We don’t want to wear this every round in and out we just want to wear it on 2 occasions a year to represent the past players, coach’s and legends of the Port Adelaide football club and acknowledge there significant great affect they had on the club.
They aren't the same jumper, other sports leagues work out how to share. Collingwood refuse to make a new design for basically any reason, they're the problem.
@@BlackGateofMordor A club thats been in the comp for 120+ years with a traditional design has to change because a new team wants to join and keep their colours? First in, best dressed. Simple
as a non supporter of either club, I believe if this was the jumper port used to play in then they have a right to still use that jumper, obviously not when they play Collingwood, but you can't deny a club its history
That argument doesn't hold if you sell the farm to join a totally different competition. They agreed on calling themselves the power and wearing teal as part of the agreement to join the afl. Their history in the sanfl means exactly nothing in the afl. Their history is 2 grand finals for one flag and one humiliation. Wearing teal
Eddie is 100% correct. A home & away game is NOT a Heritage game and Port Adelaide should stick to the contract, which they have already broken by selling Prison Bar merchandise.
You know defending the racist Eddie makes you a racist, rowey1992. Apologize and take back what you said, or I will report you to The Anti-Defamation Commission.
@@cbinsyd So I sign a mortgage contract and decide I don't want to stick to payments. How will that go for me? A contract is a contract. You sign it, you stick to it. You can ask to renegotiate, but PA have not done that.
That contract may as well be toilet paper. It's worthless now if there's no heritage round. If Eddie Maguire co-authored the contract like he said in full knowledge that the heritage round was being scrapped than he created a fraudulent contract. He wrote and signed a contract that he knew would be irrelevant once heritage rounds got scrapped. Make a new contract, obviously this one wasn't made in good faith.
Lol legit. He exposed himself by saying he knew heritage round was going to end so pretty much admitting he signed the contract in bad faith as he was privy to information others weren't and knew Port wouldn't be able to wear it very long. He then exposes himself too by bringing up the 'did you take money to go to teal' which again just shows that he bankrolled a broken club who was desperate at the time and now wants to hold them to it. Textbook business strategies from a rich club over the small club
@@dostap7748 The Collingwood and Port Prison Bar jumpers look nothing alike. I guess teams shluld also remove red and blue from their stip too since Melbourne had it first, eh?
As a Power fan the original Port team in the AFL was Port Power not Port Adelaide, as Port Adelaide was an already established team in the SANFL and as much as I hate to admit it I agree with Eddie.
Glenelg have more right to be in the AFL than Port adelaide ever have and ever will. Port Adelaide should consider themselves lucky to be in the league at all, let alone try to steal from an objectively more succesful Victorian club. As a Crows fan, I'd know better than most what Port Adelaide really want. They always have and always will be the ultimate Judices of South Aussie football.
Eddies right though, and port didn’t go along with that contract ESPECIALLY the retail production of them, dude got absolutely roasted on that point and it was downhill from there
There’s some valid points on both sides. I think they should form a new agreement that is beneficial to both parties. The prison bars should be allowed for special occasions, max 2 times/year. It’s great to celebrate the history of clubs. I’m not a diehard Port or Collingwood fan, so this heated issue seems over the top to me.
Say you entered in to an agreement with someone and they got angry that it is no longer beneficial to them(because it is leaving a lot of money on the table for them). So they bend or break the rules of that agreement and tell others how you are sooo mean for making this contract. Would you willingly re-enter into contract negotiations again. Personally, I would not.
@@ABRoss Eddie CO-WROTE that contract in bad faith. He knew heritage round was ending, but put that clause in to make them happy and give Port the impression they’d be able to benefit from that clause. He’s a con artist.
Simple solution. Port wears the Prison bars but Collingwood get the revenue from the heritage jersey sales. This shouldn't be a problem for Port if its all about 'heritage'
Not a fan of either club but Port need to let it go. It’s not their jumper. If they want to support the Magpies in the Prison bar jumper go down to the SANFL on the weekend.
Why does port insist on passing off on the pies? Collingwood should get all the profit for the heritage jumpers. See if they still wanna wear it then if it’s just about the heritage..
@K Aussie Colours belong to everybody. Get over it. You don't see Man Utd attacking every other club that wears red. Who cares Collingwood is stuck in the mud when it comes to this issue.
@K Aussie ok well you do realise that the black and white guernsey is a heritage South Australian representative guernsey from 1881-1906 before Collingwood(1906) were even a club right?? Kinda ironic when ya think about it like that, adidas might own rights to the 3 stripes but they aint winning there lawsuits about it, just like cadbury gave up on trademarking purple.
Not even PAs first jumper (Collingwood wore b&w stripes before PA did). The contract clearly states as Eddie says. Cornes trying to manipulate the meaning of words to suit his terms. PA can wear b&w stripes every week... if they go back to only playing in the SANFL.
I say port can wear it full time for as far as I'm concerned, and not a Port fan. It's an excellent jumper and has cultural significance in Aussie Rules Football and it's entirety different to Collingwood's. Also Don't know why Eddie is so hellbent maintaining Collingwood identity WHEN he allowed Adidas to switch from the traditional white based gurnsey and black strips, to a black based white strips. Let's not forget about the swooping magpie alternative Guernsey. He's always been hypocritical whenever gurnseys are brought up, especially with the introduction of clash jerseys. I'll just shove it up Eddie and do black and teal and white prison bars.
As an American fan, I have to say that this seems really petty. I have no emotional attachment to either side, so I probably don't get it. But that's the way it comes across to me.
The pettiness is with Port Power. They act like they've been in the league for 150 years...no, that is their team in their state league. They have only been a national team for 14 years. Now they are trying to get back as close as they can to their state team colours, even though Collingwood already have a jumper with similar design. Port need to get over it.
As a port fan I don’t see anything wrong with wearing the prison bar guernsey. Eddie has done horrendous things in the past and I believe he should have no right to comment about this when his not even the owner of Collingwood any more.
@@roontangdavis2694 Because Port broke it anyway, yeah. But also, yes the contract that is literally being waved in his face, so I think it's fair that he comment.
I don't often agree with Eddie but 100% on this. You can't pick and choose the rules in a legal agreement you want to follow and bringing the same colours and mascot as another club into the AFL should not be allowed. They entered the AFL as the Power (black, white AND teal), own it or go through a rebrand that gets approved by the AFL.
@@iknoweverything4959 I'm not either of the those. If the Port Magpie Supporters or Players want to wear Prison Bar jumpers then go have fun at an SANFL game and celebrate the heritage there.
@@jasonfleming3328 Basics of a contract is offer and acceptance. If it is true that Eddie was the only one that knew about Heritage Round going away then there clearly is a case for Port Adelaide to have the contract null and void. Port couldn’t properly negotiate otherwise.
@@cbgg1585 all clubs would of know but actually listen to the start. Port Adelaide were moving away from the magpies same name but different. One is port Adelaide power who port Adelaide signed off to join the AFL. Also signed off that teal will be your color. Got paid to be your color. Eddie was smart enough to make sure heritage was in it. Both clubs and AFL signed off to it. Wasn't Eddie having favors its about the wording. Port Adelaide fell for it. Now it's time for port Adelaide to start adopting the teal. The color they took to wear it. Wanna follow magpies in sa. Go follow them in in sanfl.
Eddie one step ahead of Port, that agreement signed in 2007 was for Port home games in heritage round so effectively once every 2 years. Now Port trying to use it twice every year. Sorry you signed the contract, stick to it.
Wearing the prison bars during heritage round makes sense because EVERYONE was dressing up, and when the contract was signed they were choosing their kit by a certain decade.
1891-1894 South Australian inter colonial Fooball jumpers The decision to adopt the new design was made at the South Australian Football Association meeting held on Tuesday May 12th 1891. "The Australian" (on 16-05-1891) reported: "For this year's intercolonial football matches in Adelaide in June, it was decided that the South Australian team should play in black and white jerseys and caps, white knickers and black hose... a costume suggestive of an undertaker." NOTE - the Collingwood Football Club was formed on February 12th, 1892 and adopted a black and white striped jumper... nine months after the S.A.F.A. unveiled their design. Coincidence?
@@mistergnat638 below is exactly word for word from Collingwood's website... "Williams Samuel Crawley was a supporter who had returned from a trip to South Australia, where he South Australia’s inter-colonial football team and was impressed with their black-and-white jumpers. As a local, he also knew that magpies were abundant in and around Victoria Park." "The suggestion was readily accepted by the club and right from its very first match, the team has appeared in the black-and-white jumper."
Port's 7 bars represent the 7 docks at Port Adelaide and has significance to the people of the area who built the club. Collingwood's on the other hand stands for nothing other than $$. Wonder what Newcastle United, Juventus or Adelaide City would say about Eddie's "trademark" claim... Ed, you're just proving yourself a tool.
As a port fan, Collingwood own the right to their trademark and we can't be walking around with the prisonbar guernsey, it's always going to be a conflict of interest. So let's compromise, let's build a guernsey that acknowledges power and magpies... a bit of teal into the prison bar design! Port don't have legs to stand on in this fight, so please stop fighting it Koche!
Ultimately I think everyone agrees that a Prison Bar jumper should be worn by the team reflecting their fans being behind Prsion Bars.....and that without a doubt is Collingwood!
question of respect is it eddie?... Huh ? John Cahill- Coll. Coach Mark Williams -Coll Capt. N Buckley - PAFC Prem Player Magery Medalist - Coll player/Coach Greg Philips - Legend Didak -PAFC.....and so on.... (insert more) How's Eddie McGuire's track record look regarding Respect...............
@di zM notice how I said actual away top they don’t need to be prison bars all the time with black and white could do all white with a magpie on front not just thin or thick strips
This is what Kochie needs to take to the board (or whoever it is that deals with contracts), the fact that the very basis of the contract no longer exists means that the contract is void and is no longer viable. This means the contract is required to be changed and updated, if there is no agreed upon grounds of the contract then the element of the contract that mentions "heritage rounds" is deemed null and void, which means it can no longer be followed by any parties involved, which means that PAFC can wear the Black and White Nylon guernsey within the AFL. It is as simple as that. Kochie may as well copy this comment and present it to the board.
GEt the guys in a room together and compromise. Port could easily add some teal and deepen the yolk. Shorten stripes and make them narrower etc... Reach the compromise that allows Port to wear it more often without looking like Collingwood.
Look at the EPL, NBA, Serie A... none of them are scared of having clubs with the same colours. St Kilda & Essendon (red, black & white); Carlton & Geelong (blue & white); Collingwood & North Melbourne (vertical dark stripes); Richmond & Essendon (sash on black)... there are clashes all over the Victorian clubs
Even from 17th on the ladder and totally lost on the field, Collingwood runs the (V)AFL with regards to this guernsey thing. Give it up for goodness sake. It is an embarrassment to sport.
How many of the Power supporters do you reckon support the tradition and actually go to watch the Magpies play in their prison bars? There wouldn't be many....
They don't they just where the prison bar gurnsey Wich isn't the powers colors and don't support the magpies everyone in Adelaide knows the prison bar gurnsey belongs to one team and that's the Port Magpies not the power
Im an AFL Port Power supporter from when they entered the national competition. I dont want Port to be Magpies or wear the prison bars week in week out .I do want them to play in SA in their heritage guernsay the one the used to wear against my SANFL side back when the SANFL was as strong as the VFL ....bringing some of our rich SANFL history into todays top (unfortunately VFL/mpdified ) competition .
Eddie was being a bit sneaky about the Heritage Round clause & is probably technically correct going by the strict wordings of the contract. However, it's not really in the spirit of the contract as Port wouldn't have agreed to it if they knew Heritage round would stop. However, Port does have a problem for the merchandise sales as the contract was very clear about that matter. Kane tried to deflect it but Eddie could take that further.
swamistyle, what do you mean, Port wouldn’t have agreed? Collingwood was under no obligation to allow them to use it AT ALL! Port didn’t really care as much at that stage. It’s just that now they clearly want to rebrand as black and white magpies but that goes against everything they agreed to when they entered the comp.
As a Collingwood supporter, yes we do care. They can wear it once a year and that’s it. We don’t change our stripes or colours for anyone. We are black and white, not Port Adelaide.
Eddie- I don’t want to shout and argue just let’s just have conversation about this. 2 minutes later the blokes going off his rocker. Sick an tired of seeing him everywhere in the media. He was a great president for a long time. I don’t want to listen to him commentate AFL games he’s shocking, on talk shows he biased and contradictory.
And why shouldn’t Collingwoood be forced to have an away strip when playing against Geelong & north Melbourne like they are forced change there gurneys
@The Shaniac duh I get that. Over the years both North Melbourne & Geelong have had many different versions of their away strip but Collingwood have very few. They should have an all white jersey with perhaps two black stripes. Like an albino magpie🤪
Eddie is 100 percent right I really like the look of the prison bar jumper but Collingwood is black and white stripes they signed a contract they have already broke. The contract by producing the jumper and selling it if I was Collingwood I would go out and make the same jumper as port Adelaide jumper and wear it against them The next time they play a contract is a contract you give these people and inch they take it a mile
Why don't they make a new jumper... The prison bars up the whole way but have the white and teal V cutting in at the top like there normal one?.. idk, just an idea
@@snifftheglove1119 would putting teal above the prison bars defeat the purpose? Same guernsey just teal above instead of black, I'm a port supporter, or even just a teal number lol. Teal stitching, all loopholes around the saga. Collingwood don't have rights to the prison bars they are different then stripes
@@td928 it's meant to be a throwback for supporters..a throwback to the winningest Guernsey in the history of football. The 36 premierships is important in South Australia..even to those who hate Port. It's a record. A record set by a particular Guernsey. Look, I'm not particularly phased by this whole argument between Koche and Maguire. They're both equally painful to listen to. But south Australians who are older than 25 think of Port and their lace up, prison bar Guernsey. It means a lot to those supporters. The teal is a compromise made when Port entered the afl. I simply don't understand Maguire's position..how will one or two games (played in S.A. between two local sides) impact the integrity of the Collingwood football club Guernsey, its sales or its overall franchise. I don't understand.
@@td928 P.s. I'm glad you're a port supporter!! Me too. Not knocking your idea, just think the majority of supporters and people wanting the prison bars are rigid in what they actually want to see; the OG guernsey.
The fact Eddie had inside knowledge knowing there wasn't going to be any more heritage rounds shows he signed the contract in bad faith. You cannot copywrite colours and besides the Port Adelaidr Magpies Guernsey is different. Sure its black and white but the loops arent idential stripes the white "bars" are thinner (difference) and the whote bars dont go all the way to the top (difference) if Richmond and Essendon can have pretty much exactly the same Guernsey with just 1 colour difference then we should be allowed to wear our heritage Guernsey
The guernsey's don't even look the same . Also Collingwood needs to get over it. Happens in every other sport where teams have basically the same guernsey's . I don't support Port Adelaide so I'm not being biased .
I don't particularly like Eddie but there's no doubt he knows his stuff. Even though his debating style comes across as dominating and aggressive, he made a better argument than Cornes here.
im not a fan of Eddie but I sort of agree with him here, every club has their own colours and Port Adelaide doesn't embrace their original colours, if it were to happen to any other club I think they would have the same response.
I would side with you if all clubs were held to a jumper for the season but how many different jumpers do all the clubs wear for the duration of the season for various reasons? This game has no effect on Collingwood whatsoever so shut up Eddie and worry about your club not others, this has zero bearing on him
@@knight2425 they are striped black and white jerseys, that's always been Collingwoods bread and butter jersey, imagine another club deciding to wear a black jersey with a yellow sash for whatever reason, people would be in uproar, listen I hate Eddie as much as anyone and I don't even go for the pies (blues supporter true and through)
@@hapori if a club that wasn’t in Victoria wore a black with yellow sash jumper against another non Victorian club for one or two matches why should it be an issue if that jumper actually meant something for the club wearing it? I honestly don’t understand why this is a problem for Collingwood other than ego. It’s not like Port just said we want to look like another club, what Port are asking is if they can pay respect to what they have been for the majority of their existence and to do it with as little impact outside South Australia. The bigger picture is every club needs to find ways to survive without handouts and this little token give Port a small stream of revenue so we have to take away the all about Collingwood rubbish Eddie is pushing as he needs to think about every club not just his own
@@knight2425 the problem is it doesn’t mean anything for port Adelaide, the prison bar jumper is the SANFL’s one, not theirs, they shouldn’t be wearing it and that’s that, also their colour is teal.
@@hapori yes and no, doesn’t matter who’s jumper it is as it’s what port is recognised for with their history and that is what they are trying to promote with the game against the crows. If it raises the interest of the game in sa to have the old port jumper against the crows then it’s only a good thing as anything to promote the sport is a bonus. The afl owns both port and Collingwood currents jumper so in your own theory that is that and Collingwood should stay out of it. Again this has nothing to do with Collingwood but 2 teams in a different state so affects Collingwood in no way other than ego. Oh and by the way that jumper means more than you think to port because the old port magpies are the team in the afl now, the current port magpies team is one that was established to replace the one that entered the afl. Port and it supporters don’t hold as strong a tie to the current port magpies for that reason and that is also why in Eddies eyes port doesn’t care about them.
@@londonman8688 PAFC Magpies MOVED to the AFL as part of the move the SANFL demanded the PAFC keep a team in the SANFL. That team was called the Magpies. they were to have no benefit from the Power. They were not even allowed to train at Alberton until 2011. Hence the Port Adelaide Magpies changed their name and their guernsey to accommodate Collingwood and MOVED to the AFL. Why comment if you have no idea of the circumstances.
@@TheDesertraptor The PAFC set up a new composite team call the power to enter the AFL. The PAFC magpies stayed within the SANFL. The PAFC magpies play in the SANFL, not the AFL. Power should be wearing their original AFL jumper when playing a heritage match vs adelaide crows. It seems to be some form of AFL/VFL idea where a side has a team in both with the same name. This does not apply for a new team split / formed from an existing team, irrespective of any rejoining which occurred later on
Lol i "hate" Collingwood for lack of a better term, however Eddie is right and so are the fans... This is coming from a bitter rival fan trust me.. but if the same thing was happening to my club colours we'd fight every step of the way too! And the fact all those port fans basically are wearing magpie scarves and Guernseys is a joke.. you look like a bunch of flogs. P.s stop ruining a great song by INXS
Well said, it is an absolute joke isn't it? Their own supporters can't even wear their proper colours and agreed on never tear us apart, they have ruined that song for me
The fact that the contract clearly states "Port Adelaide Football Club can only wear the Black and White Heritage Guernsey during Heritage Rounds, except against Collingwood Football Club" and there being no more 'Heritage Rounds' already makes the contract Null and Void because it cannot be upheld. There needs to be a heritage round to make the contract valid, there is none anymore. Therefore the contract is dead and the Port Adelaide Football Club are allowed to wear the Black and White Nylon Guernsey in the AFL.
"I'm not asking for opinion I'm giving you mine" might be the most Eddie saying of all time.
Two hours later of him giving his own biased account with out even taking a breathe ....note none of which is giving an answer to the question he was asked ....Eddy should have been a politician.
What Eddie said was spot on. You cant just stroll i with an outdated contract that isnt supported by anything that is in the current game (i.e. no heritage round) and point to it saying they can legally wear the black and white. They signed the colours and pattern away when they joined the AFL. They have no legal or moral claim to wear the guernsey and shouldnt be allowed.. and for the record, l support neither Port Adelaide or Collingwood.
He answered the question clearly, or did you not listen?
@@onlymurgs
Mate. If Heritage Round does not exist, then the contract is null and void.
Very simple.
Also, the fact only Eddie knew about the removal of Heritage Round is akin to insider trading.
It's further proof that Eddie McGuire has had the AFL in his back pocket for well over a decade.
@@canadianbacon3021 Not at all. Port were free to make a contract and go with what those conditions were. Other clubs knew about the heritage round being ended. Port chose to specify the jumpers could be worn during heritage rounds and did not implement a clause to allow for another occasion if heritage round should no longer be a thing. They were free to research the contract conditions and find out more about the sustainability of heritage round. they did not, got a bad deal for themselves and now they are crying about it.
That was hilarious. Footy classifieds best comedy show on the 9 network.
So Eddie is admitting to receiving exclusive information that heritage round had an expiry date and then signed a contract in bad faith when the other party did not have all the relevant facts. From a guy who wistfully talks about gentlemen's handshakes.
No, he’s saying amongst his peers most hated it and they knew it wouldn’t last. Eddie didn’t have to sign anything. It was Port trying to get permission to wear the colours and jumper they agreed to abandon to join the AFL. Outside of an all-league heritage round he didn’t want them wearing it or promoting it, because he knew in the future they’d want to rebrand and wear it more and more. And he was right.
@@MrNetMan11 I can see what you're saying and for the record, I'm a bit of a stickler and think Eddie is right about holding Port to their agreements when joining the league. It's clear Port is not holding it's end of this particular contract with Collingwood by selling the jumpers - it's crazy they're even drawing attention to the contract given their in breach of it. But even if I accept your interpretation that Eddie and thr clubs knew heritage round was on its way out, it's clear Port didn't know that because they hinged the entire agreement on being able to play once a year in the jumper on this round. It's kinda silly that they limited the agreement to playing on heritage round when really I think the spirit is that they wanted to wear it once a year. The fact is, I think Eddie is lying when he says he knew heritage round was on the way out, that's just hid usual spin to distract from the fact that he has yet again supported an inititive he eventualky dislikes down the track - just like COLA.
The irony remains because he is effectively caught in a lie. On the one hand he seeks to save face by admitting he signed a contract in bad faith but then also wants to be seen as having higher standards of honestly because he's so trustworthy, his hanshakes and word is as good as a contract. He can't have it both ways.
@@Eiraqucam Technically the agreement would have been once every two years since it has to be a Port home game. I think the problem here stems from allowing Port to claim they’re a 150 year old club rather than a 24 year old club. Normally no one would really care, but they just happened to clash with Collingwood Magpies who have always made a huge point of never substantially changing their jumper or colours. I mean, many Port supporters were probably also Collingwood supporters pre-1997.
Agree entirely with the first comment. The insufferable Eddie speaks about Lindsay Fox saying to have a friend you need to be a friend, what utter drivel when he then goes onto admit he knew heritage round was going to cease to exist when he signed the contract and then hangs his hat on Port manufacturing some jumpers breaking the conditions of the contract.
He's a weasel, always has been.
as a swans supporter, i really do sympathise with Port, there’s something about a heritage jumper that is so good, brings in the rich tapestry of our great game. I would be devastated if The swannies lost the opportunity to wear the old south Melbourne strip in games or to be merchandise for the fans. At the end of the game, i think this discussion should transcend business and contracts and focus on the fans and the rich history of our game
Exactly. I’ve got Brisbane fan friends and they love the fact that in every Melbourne game they wear a Fitzroy styled jumper, I honours and respects the traditions and the past of a rich in history football club
Are you a dill? Port Powers heritage jumper is black, white and TEAL!!!

Its not really about the jumpers though is it? Its about the brand, the black and white stripes, the magpie and of course the merchandising dollars. Before I watched this I was on Port's side I think but now seeing that they have made merch that could be mistaken for Collingwood stuff I think my opinion has changed.

looked like ya mate koch was having a whinge to me
Re the contract: Eddie said he co-authored the contract, with a clause that states Port could wear the bars in heritage round, knowing full well that heritage round was being shelved. Then he signed it. Appears very dodgy. What’s the point of the contract? Basically to strip Port of prison bar use entirely. Would have to see the whole contract, but I think Eddie regretted that admission as the show went on 😬😬😬😬😬
It sounds more like a compromise to help the new club pull support from old port pies fans. Sadly this is the hill alit of people will die on.
@@ABRoss new club? Had won a premiership by then. Any true port fans wouldve already given their full support
How is that dodgy? It's just understanding the landscape around the agreement, and acknowledging that the deal is time-limited. Nothing dodgy just business.

Simple conditional agreement, if A then B. A is Port to wear prison bar during heritage rounds, B is Port are not allowed to profit from the sale of the gurnseys. If A doesn't exist, i.e. no more heritage rounds, then B doesn't have any legs to stand on either.
I dont care either way ...but its not A then B ...is A AND B .....
Problem is that Port are claiming the contract stands and that playing against Adelaide is a heritage game....when it's not. The fact that they have made and distributed the jersey is against the contract they are claiming that they have a right to wear it. Pure hypocrisy.
You clearly have no clue how contracts work....both provisions are distinct, and don’t rely on each other. Port confirming they won’t profit from the sale stands on its own, and they clearly have breached this.
This is what makes it so ironic that Port are trying to argue the interpretation of the ‘heritage rounds’ part when they are clearly in breach of another contract clause
no club owns the rights to colors, the jumpers don't even look the same so whats the problem? if like 4 clubs in the premier league can have pretty much the exact same strip and not have any problem or arguments then why cant we?
we have clash strips for a reason and every team should have one......
Hilarious Eddie saying: “Stop talking and let me talk..” Pot, kettle anyone? But Eddie is right on this point. Port joined the AFL knowing who Collingwood were and their colours. Stiff.
Usually can't stand Eddie but he is on point here. Port signed the agreement and it's unambiguous.
It's ambiguous, can a foreign entity not legally owned by Port Adelaide FC sell a commercial line black and white prison bars guernseys, can they use a bird that closely resembles a magpie but it is not actually a magpie, what constitutes a heritage round dose the AFL get to decide what constitutes a heritage round, did Port sign the argument under the assumption the heritage round would continue, the AFL allows Richmond and Essendon to have a similar guernsey design, they allow Carlton and North Melbourne to wear the same colour but in a different shade, is it lawful for them to have a particular rule for one club and not another. Can Port wear black and white prison bars at every other point other than when their playing (warming up, sitting on the bench, training).
How enforceable is that agreement.
Considering that he was the only party who knew that the Heritage Round wouldn’t continue it was not negotiated in good faith.
I’m no fan of Eddy, but he’s right here. The Magpie is an Collingwood AFL trademark, it would be like if someone used the Nike tick on their sports brand, it’s trademark infringement.
They aren't asking for the Magpie, they're only asking for the Black and White bars
there not taking the magpie there taking the design. just like essendon and the tigers. same but different. its understandable that port are mad about this.

5:15 - rich for Eddie to tell Kane to stop talking over him when he has always talked over his co-hosts whenever they're saying something negative against Collingwood. Example: constantly talking over Kane between 6:15 to 6:50. He just HAS to get the last word in (9:15) for every arguement.
McGuire comes across as the classic schoolyard bully, that becomes a petulant child when he doesn't get his way. He raises his voice at others but cowers when they do the same

Port Adelaide was Established in 1870 and tried to enter the AFL in 1990. Any South Australian Football fantatic would understand how important this is. What you have is the Adelaide Crows spawned from the SANFL against Port Adelaide who won 34 Premierships to the end of 1996. I'm a Collingwood man but Port should be able to wear this jumper because of their history & Success. Swans & Brisbane do it with South Melbourne & Fitzroy Respectively.
Port should be able to wear the prison bars. However, it should be 2 shades of pink. Which is the real Port heritage. Collingwood was wearing black and white long before Port.

Interesting, I reckon AFL should do another contract because when Heritage round was drop so too is contract been terminated on bases of Heritage round, it’s miss leading Eddie. We had same problem with our footy jumper as we were true blue n white stripe Kangaroos but when join another league because AFL restructuring country footy we had to change to Port Power jumper. There was already one team with blue n white stripes n another team blue jumper n white V. Life goes on and we won Premiership with new jumper.
I get what Eddie is saying in that almost the whole crowd is black and white and hardly any teal
If I was a Collingwood supporter, this stuff would drive me up the wall. Wgaf if Port wears a black and white jumper occasionally?!
And same thing goes for Port. Who cares?!.
Because the black and white striped jumper is Collingwood’s intellectual property. Imagine how much of a stink Richmond would kick up if a team started playing in yellow and black jumper. Each team has their own logo, mascot and colours. Port Adelaide POWER are Teal, Black and White. Everything that happened before 1997 is irrelevant to their so called “heritage”
@@jeremyclarksonfragrance but seriously who cares. Fremantle have played in red and white, I’ve never heard Sydney go mental. It’s just a pissing contest between McGuire and Koch. No one cares.
All of you don’t have a true passion, spirt, culture and tradition that Port Adelaide has. Men that were legends for Port Adelaide in the SANFL wore that gurney and lived by the passion and desire of black and white prison bars. We don’t want to wear this every round in and out we just want to wear it on 2 occasions a year to represent the past players, coach’s and legends of the Port Adelaide football club and acknowledge there significant great affect they had on the club.
I’m with Eddie hands down on this one, it’s the port power not port magpies.
Exactly. Port asked to enter the AFL not the other way around. Having to magpie teams with basically identical jumpers is ridiculous.
They aren't the same jumper, other sports leagues work out how to share. Collingwood refuse to make a new design for basically any reason, they're the problem.
@@BlackGateofMordor A club thats been in the comp for 120+ years with a traditional design has to change because a new team wants to join and keep their colours? First in, best dressed. Simple
as a non supporter of either club, I believe if this was the jumper port used to play in then they have a right to still use that jumper, obviously not when they play Collingwood, but you can't deny a club its history
That argument doesn't hold if you sell the farm to join a totally different competition. They agreed on calling themselves the power and wearing teal as part of the agreement to join the afl. Their history in the sanfl means exactly nothing in the afl. Their history is 2 grand finals for one flag and one humiliation. Wearing teal
They played Collingwood for the right to wear black and white and be called the Magpies, they lost.
Sensible conversation and Eddie McGuire are mutually exclusive.

There’s some valid points on both sides. I think they should form a new agreement that is beneficial to both parties. The prison bars should be allowed for special occasions, max 2 times/year. It’s great to celebrate the history of clubs. I’m not a diehard Port or Collingwood fan, so this heated issue seems over the top to me.
Say you entered in to an agreement with someone and they got angry that it is no longer beneficial to them(because it is leaving a lot of money on the table for them). So they bend or break the rules of that agreement and tell others how you are sooo mean for making this contract. Would you willingly re-enter into contract negotiations again.

Not a fan of either club but Port need to let it go. It’s not their jumper. If they want to support the Magpies in the Prison bar jumper go down to the SANFL on the weekend.
This comment is all which needs to be said
Most of us do that too!
Why does port insist on passing off on the pies? Collingwood should get all the profit for the heritage jumpers. See if they still wanna wear it then if it’s just about the heritage..
I like this resolution.
Very good point
eddie needs to worry less about what jumper port wear and more about the incredible growth of his second chin.
@K Aussie Colours belong to everybody. Get over it. You don't see Man Utd attacking every other club that wears red. Who cares Collingwood is stuck in the mud when it comes to this issue.
btw, the Port Jumper is completely different. Eddie is a twit holding onto something that only matters to the geriatric traditionalists of the world.
@K Aussie ok well you do realise that the black and white guernsey is a heritage South Australian representative guernsey from 1881-1906 before Collingwood(1906) were even a club right?? Kinda ironic when ya think about it like that, adidas might own rights to the 3 stripes but they aint winning there lawsuits about it, just like cadbury gave up on trademarking purple.
@@td928 Eddie is a petty betty.
@K Aussie God forbid they wore their own jumper in the showdown. That would hugely impact the collingwood football club.
Not even PAs first jumper (Collingwood wore b&w stripes before PA did). The contract clearly states as Eddie says. Cornes trying to manipulate the meaning of words to suit his terms. PA can wear b&w stripes every week... if they go back to only playing in the SANFL.
Say what you like but Maguire is a top performer. No doubt I’d want him in my corner
Cornes u have no clue...out of context. Eddie is spot on and i am a Carlton supporter
I say port can wear it full time for as far as I'm concerned, and not a Port fan.
It's an excellent jumper and has cultural significance in Aussie Rules Football and it's entirety different to Collingwood's.
Also Don't know why Eddie is so hellbent maintaining Collingwood identity WHEN he allowed Adidas to switch from the traditional white based gurnsey and black strips, to a black based white strips. Let's not forget about the swooping magpie alternative Guernsey.
He's always been hypocritical whenever gurnseys are brought up, especially with the introduction of clash jerseys.
I'll just shove it up Eddie and do black and teal and white prison bars.
Entirely different to Collingwoods? Lol
Eddie turning red like a slice of beetroot on a burger with the lot 😂
As an American fan, I have to say that this seems really petty. I have no emotional attachment to either side, so I probably don't get it. But that's the way it comes across to me.
Its super petty, Victorians always want to control everything in AFL. Makes no sense why the grand final is at the MCG every yesr either
The pettiness is with Port Power. They act like they've been in the league for 150 years...no, that is their team in their state league. They have only been a national team for 14 years. Now they are trying to get back as close as they can to their state team colours, even though Collingwood already have a jumper with similar design.
Port need to get over it.
0:00 - 0:06 Llordo loved this hostility between Corne and Ed lmao
I'm with Eddie magpies have their colours and they were in the afl first.
They were in the VFL mate, not the AFL
@@ethanmezzino8488 Victoria is Australia remember?
As a port fan I don’t see anything wrong with wearing the prison bar guernsey. Eddie has done horrendous things in the past and I believe he should have no right to comment about this when his not even the owner of Collingwood any more.
Who is "we" Eddie when refering to the Collingwood Football club. Weren't you forced to resign in disgrace?
Isn't it his name on the contract?
@@roontangdavis2694 Because Port broke it anyway, yeah. But also, yes the contract that is literally being waved in his face, so I think it's fair that he comment.
I don't often agree with Eddie but 100% on this. You can't pick and choose the rules in a legal agreement you want to follow and bringing the same colours and mascot as another club into the AFL should not be allowed. They entered the AFL as the Power (black, white AND teal), own it or go through a rebrand that gets approved by the AFL.
You racist Collingwood supporters will be reported to The Anti-Defamation Commission.
@@iknoweverything4959 I'm not either of the those. If the Port Magpie Supporters or Players want to wear Prison Bar jumpers then go have fun at an SANFL game and celebrate the heritage there.
Hahaha Eddie knew there was not gonna b heritage round anymore, so he signed the contract hahahahahahaha😂🤪
Smart business man. Just proves that Eddie has more brains then the entire state of South Australia.
@@jasonfleming3328 Basics of a contract is offer and acceptance.
If it is true that Eddie was the only one that knew about Heritage Round going away then there clearly is a case for Port Adelaide to have the contract null and void.
Port couldn’t properly negotiate otherwise.
@@cbgg1585 all clubs would of know but actually listen to the start. Port Adelaide were moving away from the magpies same name but different. One is port Adelaide power who port Adelaide signed off to join the AFL. Also signed off that teal will be your color. Got paid to be your color. Eddie was smart enough to make sure heritage was in it. Both clubs and AFL signed off to it. Wasn't Eddie having favors its about the wording. Port Adelaide fell for it. Now it's time for port Adelaide to start adopting the teal. The color they took to wear it. Wanna follow magpies in sa. Go follow them in in sanfl.
Eddie one step ahead of Port, that agreement signed in 2007 was for Port home games in heritage round so effectively once every 2 years. Now Port trying to use it twice every year. Sorry you signed the contract, stick to it.
Wearing the prison bars during heritage round makes sense because EVERYONE was dressing up, and when the contract was signed they were choosing their kit by a certain decade.
1891-1894 South Australian inter colonial Fooball jumpers
The decision to adopt the new design was made at the South Australian Football Association meeting held on Tuesday May 12th 1891.
"The Australian" (on 16-05-1891) reported: "For this year's intercolonial football matches in Adelaide in June, it was decided that the South Australian team should play in black and white jerseys and caps, white knickers and black hose... a costume suggestive of an undertaker."
NOTE - the Collingwood Football Club was formed on February 12th, 1892 and adopted a black and white striped jumper... nine months after the S.A.F.A. unveiled their design. Coincidence?
No on Collingwoods website it literally states how the founders of the club were "inspired" to use the colours after visiting SA
@@mistergnat638 below is exactly word for word from Collingwood's website...
"Williams Samuel Crawley was a supporter who had returned from a trip to South Australia, where he South Australia’s inter-colonial football team and was impressed with their black-and-white jumpers. As a local, he also knew that magpies were abundant in and around Victoria Park."
"The suggestion was readily accepted by the club and right from its very first match, the team has appeared in the black-and-white jumper."
Port's 7 bars represent the 7 docks at Port Adelaide and has significance to the people of the area who built the club. Collingwood's on the other hand stands for nothing other than $$. Wonder what Newcastle United, Juventus or Adelaide City would say about Eddie's "trademark" claim... Ed, you're just proving yourself a tool.
The trademark only applies to AFL jumpers you absolute tool which Port clearly breached if they produced and sold 5,000 of their Heritage jumpers.
port adeliade joined the AFL knowing the rules
Adelaide City, Juventus and Newcastle don't play in The AFL
@@raphaelkoch1573 For most of their existence, nor did Collingwood.
@@dansharp2860 whose the tool? What would Collingwood do if Port wore Newcastle United tops to every game?
Eddy has points on this
As a port fan, Collingwood own the right to their trademark and we can't be walking around with the prisonbar guernsey, it's always going to be a conflict of interest. So let's compromise, let's build a guernsey that acknowledges power and magpies... a bit of teal into the prison bar design!
Port don't have legs to stand on in this fight, so please stop fighting it Koche!
AFL owns all the trademarks, so it’s up to them really.
@@imalwaysright yeah but Collingwood deserve that right, one of the most historic and consistent clubs in AFL (even tho us South Aussies hate them)
Ultimately I think everyone agrees that a Prison Bar jumper should be worn by the team reflecting their fans being behind Prsion Bars.....and that without a doubt is Collingwood!
Why not just add some teal in the prison bars jumper?
question of respect is it eddie?... Huh ?
John Cahill- Coll. Coach
Mark Williams -Coll Capt.
N Buckley - PAFC Prem Player Magery Medalist - Coll player/Coach
Greg Philips - Legend
Didak -PAFC.....and so on.... (insert more)
How's Eddie McGuire's track record look regarding Respect...............
Port call the crows a franchise club with no history, but claim the showdown is of hertige significance. So which is it
I’m waiting for the day collingwood gets a actually away top like everyone else has
They do, slightly different though you can’t do much with black and white stripes lol
@di zM notice how I said actual away top they don’t need to be prison bars all the time with black and white could do all white with a magpie on front not just thin or thick strips
They already do. Black and white at home and white and black away.
@@blahblahblah8911 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
If there is no heritage round anymore then the contract is void and needs to be renegotiated.
This is what Kochie needs to take to the board (or whoever it is that deals with contracts), the fact that the very basis of the contract no longer exists means that the contract is void and is no longer viable.
This means the contract is required to be changed and updated, if there is no agreed upon grounds of the contract then the element of the contract that mentions "heritage rounds" is deemed null and void, which means it can no longer be followed by any parties involved, which means that PAFC can wear the Black and White Nylon guernsey within the AFL.
It is as simple as that.
Kochie may as well copy this comment and present it to the board.
For once, I totally agree with Eddie.
GEt the guys in a room together and compromise. Port could easily add some teal and deepen the yolk. Shorten stripes and make them narrower etc... Reach the compromise that allows Port to wear it more often without looking like Collingwood.
Eddie should take a year off work. We’re sick of him. He drinks his own bath water.
Regardless, he's right about this.
Did you want a tissue
Look at the EPL, NBA, Serie A... none of them are scared of having clubs with the same colours. St Kilda & Essendon (red, black & white); Carlton & Geelong (blue & white); Collingwood & North Melbourne (vertical dark stripes); Richmond & Essendon (sash on black)... there are clashes all over the Victorian clubs
Even from 17th on the ladder and totally lost on the field, Collingwood runs the (V)AFL with regards to this guernsey thing. Give it up for goodness sake. It is an embarrassment to sport.
They have their priorities 💯😂😂😂😂😂😂
Kochie made it sound like an advertisement for Sunrise on Channel 9 tho... brilliant
How many of the Power supporters do you reckon support the tradition and actually go to watch the Magpies play in their prison bars? There wouldn't be many....
They don't they just where the prison bar gurnsey Wich isn't the powers colors and don't support the magpies everyone in Adelaide knows the prison bar gurnsey belongs to one team and that's the Port Magpies not the power
Im an AFL Port Power supporter from when they entered the national competition. I dont want Port to be Magpies or wear the prison bars week in week out .I do want them to play in SA in their heritage guernsay the one the used to wear against my SANFL side back when the SANFL was as strong as the VFL ....bringing some of our rich SANFL history into todays top (unfortunately VFL/mpdified ) competition .
Eddie was being a bit sneaky about the Heritage Round clause & is probably technically correct going by the strict wordings of the contract. However, it's not really in the spirit of the contract as Port wouldn't have agreed to it if they knew Heritage round would stop. However, Port does have a problem for the merchandise sales as the contract was very clear about that matter. Kane tried to deflect it but Eddie could take that further.
Then they should have asked for derby week...not heritage round. This is just kosch big noting himself.
Who else wears a special heritage jumper? Hint - no one. Eddie is right.
Brisbane wears Fitzroy jumpers
@@harleyluobikis1378 Not sure if you're aware. But Brisbane is Fitzroy. If Port want to Merge with Collingwood and move to Victoria, go for it.
swamistyle, what do you mean, Port wouldn’t have agreed? Collingwood was under no obligation to allow them to use it AT ALL! Port didn’t really care as much at that stage. It’s just that now they clearly want to rebrand as black and white magpies but that goes against everything they agreed to when they entered the comp.
Who remember the bloke mimics kochi from Comdy inc😂
Eddie needs a year off
I thought he already stood down
I mean a year off everything! Media included.
As a Collingwood supporter, yes we do care. They can wear it once a year and that’s it. We don’t change our stripes or colours for anyone. We are black and white, not Port Adelaide.
And that’s all they are asking for
5:18 eddie angry and rude
Why are Port so uncomfortable to be known as the Power? Is it because they have failed to be successful as them?
Eddies argument that port Adelaide want to be a Collingwood clone is hilarious.. why would anyone want to be like those racist flogs
Eddie- I don’t want to shout and argue just let’s just have conversation about this. 2 minutes later the blokes going off his rocker. Sick an tired of seeing him everywhere in the media. He was a great president for a long time. I don’t want to listen to him commentate AFL games he’s shocking, on talk shows he biased and contradictory.
And why shouldn’t Collingwoood be forced to have an away strip when playing against Geelong & north Melbourne like they are forced change there gurneys
@The Shaniac duh I get that. Over the years both North Melbourne & Geelong have had many different versions of their away strip but Collingwood have very few. They should have an all white jersey with perhaps two black stripes. Like an albino magpie🤪
Eddie is 100 percent right I really like the look of the prison bar jumper but Collingwood is black and white stripes they signed a contract they have already broke. The contract by producing the jumper and selling it if I was Collingwood I would go out and make the same jumper as port Adelaide jumper and wear it against them
The next time they play a contract is a contract you give these people and inch they take it a mile
So Eddie just admitted he changes his underoos every few years? 😂
Why don't they make a new jumper... The prison bars up the whole way but have the white and teal V cutting in at the top like there normal one?.. idk, just an idea
That would defeat the entire purpose of port's heritage.
@@snifftheglove1119 would putting teal above the prison bars defeat the purpose? Same guernsey just teal above instead of black, I'm a port supporter, or even just a teal number lol. Teal stitching, all loopholes around the saga. Collingwood don't have rights to the prison bars they are different then stripes
@@td928 it's meant to be a throwback for supporters..a throwback to the winningest Guernsey in the history of football. The 36 premierships is important in South Australia..even to those who hate Port. It's a record. A record set by a particular Guernsey. Look, I'm not particularly phased by this whole argument between Koche and Maguire. They're both equally painful to listen to. But south Australians who are older than 25 think of Port and their lace up, prison bar Guernsey. It means a lot to those supporters. The teal is a compromise made when Port entered the afl.
I simply don't understand Maguire's position..how will one or two games (played in S.A. between two local sides) impact the integrity of the Collingwood football club Guernsey, its sales or its overall franchise. I don't understand.
And as I post my last msg the AFL just rejected port's request for prison bars.
@@td928 P.s. I'm glad you're a port supporter!! Me too. Not knocking your idea, just think the majority of supporters and people wanting the prison bars are rigid in what they actually want to see; the OG guernsey.
This coming up again in my recommendations can only mean one thing…that time of the year
A new PA vs Pies rivalry ensues.... over FASHION!
AFL introduce heritage round.
Power V pies.
Power wear striped guernsey hahaha
Just bring back Heritage round.
The fact Eddie had inside knowledge knowing there wasn't going to be any more heritage rounds shows he signed the contract in bad faith.
You cannot copywrite colours and besides the Port Adelaidr Magpies Guernsey is different. Sure its black and white but the loops arent idential stripes the white "bars" are thinner (difference) and the whote bars dont go all the way to the top (difference) if Richmond and Essendon can have pretty much exactly the same Guernsey with just 1 colour difference then we should be allowed to wear our heritage Guernsey
The guernsey's don't even look the same . Also Collingwood needs to get over it. Happens in every other sport where teams have basically the same guernsey's .
I don't support Port Adelaide so I'm not being biased .
Maybe the Power need to get over it.
Black and white stripes aren't the same? Lol
I don't particularly like Eddie but there's no doubt he knows his stuff. Even though his debating style comes across as dominating and aggressive, he made a better argument than Cornes here.
Because he talks constantly .
Collingwood and Port just co-exist like Essendon and Richmond with their Sashes.
100% but with teal in their stripes
Eddie is wrong on this. Let the club celebrate their history.
How about Teal Prison Bars!!
would actually be a great idea, so it won't happen
im not a fan of Eddie but I sort of agree with him here, every club has their own colours and Port Adelaide doesn't embrace their original colours, if it were to happen to any other club I think they would have the same response.
I would side with you if all clubs were held to a jumper for the season but how many different jumpers do all the clubs wear for the duration of the season for various reasons? This game has no effect on Collingwood whatsoever so shut up Eddie and worry about your club not others, this has zero bearing on him
@@knight2425 they are striped black and white jerseys, that's always been Collingwoods bread and butter jersey, imagine another club deciding to wear a black jersey with a yellow sash for whatever reason, people would be in uproar, listen I hate Eddie as much as anyone and I don't even go for the pies (blues supporter true and through)
@@hapori if a club that wasn’t in Victoria wore a black with yellow sash jumper against another non Victorian club for one or two matches why should it be an issue if that jumper actually meant something for the club wearing it? I honestly don’t understand why this is a problem for Collingwood other than ego. It’s not like Port just said we want to look like another club, what Port are asking is if they can pay respect to what they have been for the majority of their existence and to do it with as little impact outside South Australia. The bigger picture is every club needs to find ways to survive without handouts and this little token give Port a small stream of revenue so we have to take away the all about Collingwood rubbish Eddie is pushing as he needs to think about every club not just his own
@@knight2425 the problem is it doesn’t mean anything for port Adelaide, the prison bar jumper is the SANFL’s one, not theirs, they shouldn’t be wearing it and that’s that, also their colour is teal.
@@hapori yes and no, doesn’t matter who’s jumper it is as it’s what port is recognised for with their history and that is what they are trying to promote with the game against the crows. If it raises the interest of the game in sa to have the old port jumper against the crows then it’s only a good thing as anything to promote the sport is a bonus. The afl owns both port and Collingwood currents jumper so in your own theory that is that and Collingwood should stay out of it. Again this has nothing to do with Collingwood but 2 teams in a different state so affects Collingwood in no way other than ego. Oh and by the way that jumper means more than you think to port because the old port magpies are the team in the afl now, the current port magpies team is one that was established to replace the one that entered the afl. Port and it supporters don’t hold as strong a tie to the current port magpies for that reason and that is also why in Eddies eyes port doesn’t care about them.
Port Power Football club est. 1997
Jack learns how to read, circa 2021
What gives the right of the AFL to deny the Port Adelaide Magpies the right to sell their Guernsey. Effectively denies PAFC earning capacity
because the port adelaide magpies is not a team in the AFL
@@londonman8688 PAFC Magpies MOVED to the AFL as part of the move the SANFL demanded the PAFC keep a team in the SANFL. That team was called the Magpies. they were to have no benefit from the Power. They were not even allowed to train at Alberton until 2011.
Hence the Port Adelaide Magpies changed their name and their guernsey to accommodate Collingwood and MOVED to the AFL.
Why comment if you have no idea of the circumstances.
@@TheDesertraptor The PAFC set up a new composite team call the power to enter the AFL. The PAFC magpies stayed within the SANFL. The PAFC magpies play in the SANFL, not the AFL. Power should be wearing their original AFL jumper when playing a heritage match vs adelaide crows. It seems to be some form of AFL/VFL idea where a side has a team in both with the same name. This does not apply for a new team split / formed from an existing team, irrespective of any rejoining which occurred later on
Lol i "hate" Collingwood for lack of a better term, however Eddie is right and so are the fans... This is coming from a bitter rival fan trust me.. but if the same thing was happening to my club colours we'd fight every step of the way too! And the fact all those port fans basically are wearing magpie scarves and Guernseys is a joke.. you look like a bunch of flogs. P.s stop ruining a great song by INXS
Well said, it is an absolute joke isn't it? Their own supporters can't even wear their proper colours and agreed on never tear us apart, they have ruined that song for me
The contract should be void considering Eddie had insider information prior to signing the contract
The fact that the contract clearly states "Port Adelaide Football Club can only wear the Black and White Heritage Guernsey during Heritage Rounds, except against Collingwood Football Club" and there being no more 'Heritage Rounds' already makes the contract Null and Void because it cannot be upheld.
There needs to be a heritage round to make the contract valid, there is none anymore. Therefore the contract is dead and the Port Adelaide Football Club are allowed to wear the Black and White Nylon Guernsey in the AFL.
