Yep I can't believe thousands of people still love listening to the whole 'over the top' 'completely bias one way' style radio shows

Personally I would much prefer to listen to someone with good knowledge, well thoughthout views (even if they go against mine) than the rubbish on 5aa

That's why at times I don't mind the AFL360 show as you will see Robbo and the nerdy looking bloke go against the trend or not just be a pro AFL advertisement on every issue

I also prefer being part of a SANFL wide forum rather than a club forum like cdfc where as a general rule every win makes u premiership favs and every loss was caused by the umpires or current injury epidemic

I tune in most nights from 5:00 when I get in the car to about 5:20 when I get home.

I know they're biased, I know they're ill informed, I take what they say with a grain of salt accordingly. You need to remember that if and when you ever choose to tune in.

Without Fox at home, with little interest in modern "music" I find 20 minutes of any type of sport more interesting than anything else on the radio.

They give pretty equal coverage to port and crows imo. Given they are both crows men I don't think they are that biased.

A crowd of over 10k is pretty funny though

So uninterested, in fact, that I make that the 4th largest crowd this season. Not to mention that the Clare game was by far the highest rating SANFL game this year, followed by Norwood v Port in round one. Keep on telling yourselves it's not working if it makes you feel better, though.

And that's for the history making first local football showdown on suburban grounds with perfect winters weather while both sides are in finals contention in both comps and no AFL games in SA on the weekend

I know thats what im laughing at.
For these people its just a novelty, id expect crowds to get worse over the following years. Having reserves for ever and a day I can tell you most supporters of Vic clubs couldnt care less about Ressies thats why Ess v Coll attracts about 3k. I go to 5-10 games a year in Melbourne but in 30 years have only attended 5-10 Reserve games

Yep we have already seen this year that the return legs of the crows reserves attendance are already down around the 30-40% on the first round of games.

SANFL clubs have maybe 2-3k members and most of them attend games yet the 2 AFL clubs with all their members can only attract 5% to games.

6000 isn't too bad with only one set of supporters there
