Port always had greater differentiation from the Crows so they a better fit than Norwood for the 2nd licence. Had SA’s first conglomerate team had a more working class identity and more Port aligned it would’ve been the other way round.
In what universe was Rugby a competitor of Aussie rules Football in SA in the 90s? But yeah, Port was the only logical choice of all other existing teams, by far the biggest and most successful club an in a way a natural rival for the Crows. Of all possibilities, this is probably one of the best. Obviously, you couldn’t include most teams, 2 teams is fairly representative in terms of the SA population. In the end it was the by far biggest club, and a club to represent the rest of the clubs. The showdown is a fierce and awesome rivalry, even though it lacks the long history of other rivalries in SA, particularly the Norwood/Port rivalry.
Welcome to the AFL remember Collingwood is the only team that has been Black and White while port Adelaide has more uniform changes than a 40year old divorced stripper
