The Port Adelaide Football Club awaits the outcome of further important meetings in relation to future financial investment in our Club.

The Club is happy with the progress of collaborative discussions with the SANFL and the AFL that we are confident will deliver a great outcome for PAFC and football in South Australia.

In the meantime, the team and Football Department is focused on Sunday’s clash with West Coast at Patersons Stadium while staff continue to work in every way possible in the best interests of the Power.

At this point there is little more to add to what President Brett Duncanson said last week:

“What we have achieved is an understanding of our business plan, and most importantly support from both the SANFL and the AFL for what is needed to deliver the business plan.”

“Talks are very constructive and collaborative and we are confident of reaching an outcome that will be to the long-term benefit of football in South Australia, including the Port Adelaide Football Club.”

“These are complex issues and they require complex solutions and we will not be commenting on details as our discussions continue.”

The AFL Commission and SA Football Commission will be meeting soon to progress these matters and in the meantime the Port Adelaide Football Club will continue to work with the AFL and the SANFL to achieve that outcome.

The Club again thanks its Members and Supporters for their continuing loyalty.

“The people who follow Port Adelaide are the fabric of our Club. We are grateful for their ongoing support, belief and patience as we work to secure a fantastic future for this Club,” Mr Duncanson said.

“We will continue to keep everyone informed of progress as and when we are able to.”
