Eyre Peninsula will be without a few from injuries, and realistically, it'll be the same old EP come the Champs... Ordinary on the first day, win their game on the last against the other struggler...

So the wooden spoon could be an all out battle between EP and Northern!

You boys certainly know your footy over that way.

If not for a technical cluster**** we would have been on the money...

This event returns to Berri next year but 2013 looks like bypassing Port Pirie. That's the latest word anyway.

The entire world may bypass Port Pirie by then with Julia's carbon tax!

Jeez mate don't let redandblack or fish hear you say that or you will be excommunicated poste haste
Hilarious by the way, Pirie people vote Labor and that's it. If Nyrstar closes they will balme John Howard

[overloaded]

Port Lincoln are going to bid for it in the near future. Got no chance IMHO

[Sky Pilot]

sorry about the typo - I meant 'blame' not balme. Neil would never forgive me

Berri and Pirie were two reasonably central locations- not having to travel too far.

Unless you want to tack three or four more hours on the trip for some, then it would just be too far in Lincoln.

Keep it the way it is.

Why would they move it from Berri?? It's the best oval in coutry SA

[Wynarka]

The Hills would be a fantastic venue, as you have the availability to go out in town, aswell as still supporting grass roots

i reckon that would be the last place they'd play it. Ovals wouldn't be able to handle it. too much chance of rain and ovals are terrible

[GWW]

The Barossa could perhaps be another suitable location.

[Mythical Creature]

They are going to play it at Long Plains in 2013!

Why wouldn't they consider using the old oval at Kulpara, only needs new goal posts, players could change behind the trees. Or go a bit further south to Arthurton, now that's a beaut oval when it's not in flower.

Borrika oval would be ideal.

Berri is a great location and you are right - the oval and facilities are pretty good. It doesn't seem to attract good crowds though so would that be BC?
