Any chance to take a shot at the league ay mate?
Your constant SAAFL bashing is incredibly boring to me... Get a life!


You missed the point!!!!! the truth was being hidden by the old exec and the new one exec are up front about it and congratulations to them for being honest.

I nominated several new members of the exec at the last AGM so get your facts straight.

I had problems with several members of the old exec because they were out of touch with clubs and they are now gone

Am not bashing the exec only questioning decisions that are made when they are bad choices.

If it is boring you then accept the mediority that was coming out from the SAAFL Exec if you do not question decisions you get what you deserve

Let that be a lesson to you Sturt. You don't beat Glenelg 3 times in a row in Grand Finals and get away with it.

Nearly all your posts are negative towards the league and if not them Kilburn.
Mate most of us appreciate the fact we have a well run competition to run around on Saturdays in. No league is ever going to be run perfectly, so get over it and concentrate on your own clubs performances instead of the leagues, i think they are doing a great job.

Yes FE has been grumpy lately and he should calm down a bit,however if the Centenary Book lost $50k that is nearly a grand per club for an average publication,then we all have the right to be annoyed. So much for a professional journalist doing his homework before printing it :shock:

Yes have been on grumpy pills the last few weeks but coming off them and back to normal.

Was very disapointed with the result of the book it could have been so much better with a bit of research and along the lines of the book Fred Bloch produced in 1994. Most people were hoping for an update of that book but it was not to be.
Against the wishes of all concerned we got the book that we didn't wanted. A loss of that magnitude needs to be questioned until the new Exec arrived the loss and cost of this book was being hidden from the delegates. Now it is out in the open for all to see we can all now move on. End of story.
