-
- Business
As the battle between Port Adelaide and Collingwood over the AFL 'prison bars' guernsey takes another twist, Power legend Warren Tredrea unpacks the issue and also the bigger picture - why the jersey, the brand and the story is so important to sports clubs.
Over the years Port's desire to wear its heritage 'prison bars' guernsey in a nod to its incredible SANFL history has drawn the ire of Collingwood, particularly former President Eddie McGuire.
But new leadership has brought a fresh collaborative approach between the two clubs in 2023.
In this episode Tredders, Port's premiership captain with deeper links to the issue than just about anyone, brings to light new details on the deal, the commercial implications, the AFL's role and shares his views - including a response to Eddie.
He also talks about the importance of the jersey to sports clubs, including how much global club brands and sports stars typically make from sales.
