Quite correct David, last time they played was September 1896 - 45857 days between games
19th September 1896. Round 19
At Port, South Melbourne 6.4.40 Def Port Melbourne 3.2.20
Very little change at Port since then NorthPort !
Sorry mate I just couldn't help myself.

Who am I to argue - nothing
Digs - I'm shocked (well not really too shocked).
Apparently it was South Melbourne who blocked Port from entering the VFL on a couple of occasions and for a long time there was no love lost between the two clubs!
It would be good if the swans wore the old South Melbourne jumpers. Although there was no love lost for several years there has been many great players that have played for both Port and South.
