Default Renault signs major sponsorship deal with Port Adelaide FC

Great news for the Port Adelaide footy club. There was suspicion this morning it may of been Ford with talk that Geelong was upset with Port's sponsorship deal.

Good for Renault. Beats having the cars sitting in a paddock.
Although I can't see an AFL player driving a Clio.

Good fit, Renault is one of the lowest selling brands and Port are one of the lowest ranked teams


Coach Ken Hinkley was a Ford salesman, I bought an XR8 from him in 2003.

Anyone care to talk about the good in this rather than take swipes at Port?

I took a swipe at that deal because a major company based in SA rejected my club, then goes and signs with Collingwood.

In the end, Renault is a better deal for Port anyway.
