The Cygnet Football Club is an Australian rules football club currently playing in the Southern Football League (Tasmania), also known as the SFL, in Tasmania, Australia.

Origins

Cygnet began as Lovett Football Club in 1906, and changed its name to Cygnet in the 1910s.
The Magpies were a member of the Huon Football Association from 1906-1997 when the league disbanded and they joined the SFL in 1998.
Upon entry in the SFL they changed from their longtime Black & White playing strip and Magpie emblem, adopting a Port Adelaide playing strip (black, white and teal) and called themselves 'The Port'.
