LEADING Port Adelaide forward Jay Schulz believes the off-field movements of the Power - which culminated in a major sponsorship deal worth $1.5 million over three years with Renault this week - will carry momentum on field.
After two gloomy seasons at Alberton, the former Tiger is daring to believe his dream of playing finals football for the first time in his decade-long career is getting closer as Port is getting its ship in order under a new board and a new coaching panel.
"We've got the same feeling that everyone on the outside is feeling tends to be felt on the inside as well,'' Schulz said.
"There's a real buzz around the place.
"The boys are feeling good, feeling fit, as most clubs are this time of year.
"Just really excited about the season ahead.
"Renault coming on board has given us another lift as well and our corporate has worked fantastically to get that deal done.
"I think all the changes that have been made have all been positive and have taken the club in a new direction.
"The boys are feeling it and now we just look forward to putting it on display.''
Schulz said Alberton barely bore resemblance to the place he first joined when he left Richmond to come home to South Australia.
Under new coach Ken Hinkley and the off-field leadership of Keith Thomas and David Koch, the club is finally poised to give something back to its long-suffering fans.
"It's just been a different joint, in general,'' Schulz said.
"A lot of things have been parked, there are a lot of new phases and you know the old saying - a change is as good as a holiday.
"I truly believe that.''
