Basil Jaggard’s hands are a footballer’s hands.

They tell the story of marks taken and dropped, tackles worn and busted, and games won and lost for his beloved Port Adelaide Football Club.

The 91-year-old played 94 South Australian Football League games for the Port Adelaide Magpies from 1952 to 1959 as a wing.

He kicked 114 goals for his club and was a member of the 1954 and 1958 Port Adelaide Magpies premiership teams.

On Thursday night Basil will be proudly cheering on his club from Highercombe Residential Care Home as they take on their cross-town rivals the Adelaide Crows in the Showdown.

“I watch most if not all of Port Adelaide’s games and I’ll be barracking for them on Thursday night.”

Basil said he didn’t believe in tipping margins of victory, all that mattered was being ahead at the final hooter….

No secret as to who he thinks that will be.
Enjoy the game, Basil!!! ⚫⚪🔵
