I reckon something of similar nature has been said the last 4 years. Sides will catch up, Crows look poo though



I suggest Ben Jarman finds an SAAFL club as he’ll need it very soon, just not up to it.

How many do they get to Eagles B grade games

About the same as their A Grade, same for most SANFL clubs, not many rock up after 2pm.


I respect the commitment but do they really think they're making a difference by boycotting the league games. I think not

Maybe they're like me and it's not a boycott, they just have no interest in a comp with three sets of rules.

At least it's a perfect day for a showdown, must be at least 15,000 there? Not that I have any idea as its not on at the pub as no-one cares despite mainly Crows and Power fans being here atm.
I watched it at the Tower hotel. Some very exciting debuts for the PAFC. Especially Hayes. Great game for an 18yo ruckman!

Assumptions from posts over the years that supporters go to watch the Ressies then F off when the league starts because of the AFL influence, which ironically has been there for 20+ years.

How many prank calls is Lokan going to get after channel 7 broadcast his number to everyone watching today’s game?

I don't think that happens (stand to be corrected).

Some do not go if it is against the two AFL sides.

I am aware that some Sturt supporters watched their reserves grand final then left.

Commentators were saying 4,000

I think every SANFL team would have beaten the Cows today. Port not that good.

Lindsay still good at diving. FFS when will umpires wake up? Disgraceful.

Don't think that he dove that much today, more of a lean & duck. He could milk a goldfish.

FTFY

Watched 10-15 minutes of the third term, Power Reserves kicked 6 or 7 goals in that time. Ravens looked a rabble- cant be bothered looking at the line up but guessing they had 10+ amateurs.

Yep, never heard of it happening except for that one instance.
Even then, I don't think it was a protest, rather, just a choice. A bit like why must we buy eggs if they're rotten?

I think my club's answer to that question was that rotten eggs are better than no eggs.

I think that message got scrambled on its way to the fans. We all thought they were just yolking and everything would turn out all white but instead they omelette the two Reserves in to poach our players. Theiy must have been boiled or had their brains fried to agree to a deal that meant they’d be shelling out for years after. :rolleyes:

I think you have finally cracked JTC. Some people might think this is eggcellent but I think it’s just rotten. Who will think of the chickens
