The Port accepted the proposed terms and conditions for the Magpies to act as an AFL support team in the SANFL competition in 2014.

Then, as now, football’s leaders joined together to make a judgement call they believed was in the best interests of the game in South Australia. It is the Commission’s belief that the vision shown by the League Directors in 2013 will protect the integrity, relevance and viability for the long term.

ADELAIDE FOOTBALL

CLUBS The on-field resurgence of the Port Adelaide Football Club was one of the stories of the AFL in 2013.

Coming off a five-win season the previous year, Port Adelaide collected 13 victories under new coach to finish seventh before defeating Collingwood in a memorable Elimination Final at the MCG.

This helped translate into an 8% increase in AFL attendance for Port Adelaide matches at AAMI Stadium, including a crowd of 45,127 for the final AFL match at the venue.

Picture: 2013 SANFL Premiership team, . Port Adelaide’s turnaround is due in part to the financial backing and broader support provided to the club by the Commission and AFL.

Adelaide Football Club faced many challenges throughout 2013, finishing 11th after being a kick away from the Grand Final the year before.

The clubs now move to Adelaide Oval with an enormous opportunity for both financial and scoreboard success. 5 Glenelg’s Ty Allen runs through the banner for his 100th match. (Paul Melrose, SA Football Budget) 2013: A YEAR IN REVIEW

The operating result also comfortably exceeded budget and was cash earnings positive.

The Commercial team continued to focus on AAMI Stadium and the revenue drivers associated with the business.

However, with the Adelaide Oval project completion looming, there were ongoing contributions from all departments to ensure a smooth transition to the new venue in 2014.

Whilst the planning commenced two years ago for the transfer to Adelaide Oval, it has been a major focus over the past year to provide staff with the best possible support mechanisms for their ongoing involvement, with the League and within the Adelaide Oval Stadium Management Authority structure. The process was capably handled by the HR Department.

The Stadium division continued to provide a superior level of service to the matchday operations. It should be recognised that presentation of the main was highly regarded, not only as a fantastic surface for playing Australian football, but as a leader among national venues. Encore Group continued its recognised high level of quality for food, beverage and service. The restructured Encore model under Justin Liu has achieved improved results in the area of retail catering, which recorded its highest-ever total annual turnover.
