On this week's show, join Chris Andrews, John Nankivell and myself as we discuss some interesting innovations with local footy. One idea we have raised from left field is the possibility of the SANFL programming a match in early September (a Friday night, Sat. afternoon or Sat. night game) at the Wayville Showgrounds, to coincide with the Royal Show. Entry would be gained through show entry, and it would be an ideal opportunity to hit a captive audience - right at the demographic the SANFL need to aim for, to create the next generation of SANFL fans. It may be a matter of a club sacrificing a lower drawing home game to take the opportunity to play in front of 7-10,000 fans, and takes the game right to the people. It is a very different idea and there are many logistics to work through, but is it worth considering?
Can you guess where I'm calling from, the Las Vegas Hilton...
