McGuire issues blunt warning to Port Adelaide after prison bar jumper stunt
By
Former Collingwood President Eddie McGuire has responded to Port Adelaideâs prison bar jumper stunt.
With the AFL denying the Powerâs request to wear the jumper in Saturday nightâs home Showdown against Adelaide, Port players decided to change into the heritage strip post-match to sing the team song after their 49-point win.
As perhaps the most vocal figure against the use of the famous jumper at AFL level, McGuire was asked what his thoughts were at half-time of Sundayâs Hawthorn v West Coast game at the MCG.
