Port Adelaide Football Club, often referred to as simply Port, is an Australian rules football club based in Adelaide, South Australia. From its foundation in 1870 to 1996, the club representing Port Adelaide competed in the SANFL as the "Port Adelaide Magpies", then in 1997 joined the Australian Football League [AFL]. On entry, Port Adelaide adopted a new nickname (The Power) and added two more colours (silver and teal) in a requirement to differentiate itself from an existing AFL club, the Collingwood Football Club. During its time in the SANFL, Port Adelaide established itself as the most dominant club in the competition by winning 34 senior premierships. In its short stint in the AFL, Port has won one premiership.
