Will they reduce normal ticket price from $14?


Less games, same price - good luck to you.

There's a difference between training in it and being treated like it.

I still can't work out why quality Port players would choose to go to Sturt. It's not as if they are anywhere near a finals window given they only won games this year when their AFL players stood up, and they won't be there next year. And there must be uncertainty in Sturt meeting whatever payments have been offered. Most other clubs would have showed interest, surely.

I think your answer lies inside the question. Even though other clubs might have shown some interest in the players, their interest might have been on the basis that they were being recruited as reserves/fringe players, whereas Sturt, being near the bottom already plus losing a shitload of AFL-listed players, is able to offer a pretty much guaranteed league starting spot, and a contract to reflect the fact that they're recruited as best-21 players. Less attractive to go to a club not massively likely to have on-field success in the short term? Sure, but the flip side is that if you go to a more successful club you might get paid less, and not get a game.

Plenty of SANFL clubs are (allegedly) financial basket cases, but not too many have a history of reneging on player payment contracts. (With good reason—they'd have a mighty tough time ever recruiting anyone again, if they did.)

True that. Also for Kirkwood (at least at 8 clubs!). I was actually thinking more of ex-PAFC recruits as a job lot, than those 2 specifically.

Sturt won more games this year with greater contributions from the younger brigade.

Back to the topic of the SANFL draw, anymore news on when it will be released. We're hearing the Crows will kick off their season against North at Prospect and their first game against the Power reserves is likely to be played at Clare. Any other rumors floating around.

Can the Crows also make some tv ads for him whilst they are there? Dead set shockers from that dealership on tv up there

Im sympathetic of the situation but yet another example of the way this comp is going....there would be a heap of better ways the Crows could support this cause.

Personally cant see the issue with an SANFL game in the country, other clubs should do it if they can offset bar / canteen losses.

Foxtel Cup draw now out so that's another domino down.

SANFL should release a draft draw shortly to clubs for feedback, then it gets signed off /released mid December

I think the country games are a failure and too costly for clubs. West for example pulled the pin due to the costs involved.

It just devalues the league even further. Playing out in the country makes it even more amateurish IMO, like the cars around the ground at Noarlunga, or playing games as curtain raisers to AFL games. This is league football we're talking about.

No doubt the cause they're trying to support is worthwhile, and there could be an exception just this once. To be honest, I didn't mind how they'd have a game in the country every couple of years during the '90s and early '00s. But the AFL clubs have taken a dump on our league because they see it as a funpark league, not as league football, and we're going to keep seeing more of this sort of thing from them.

The SANFL reminds me of my workplace just rehashing ideas and going through various things in a cyclic fashion.
If things work do them again, if they don't then leave them be. Simple.
