TTG did once to play against us. The bus couldn't get into the carpark so they had to walk from the street to the changeroom

I played for Red Cliffs in Mildura for a bit and they used to also do joint presentations afterwards when playing the likes of Robinvale who got the bus in to town at 4:45 after the games finished. Those joint presos were the best joint initiative to this day I’ve seen at any footy club as the players and supporters all hung around. The kitchen opened up early and the hosting clubs absolutely cleaned up with bar and food takings. The mates you make from those events at other clubs was also something else.

At least 3 of the 8 clubs are within 5 minutes of each other.
Smithfield have 4 drives over an hour each, and that’s if they only have to travel to thrm grounds once.

Mitchell Park isn’t far.
OSB Lonsdale is easy up the expressway
Flinders Park not much further than MP
Hackham a little trek but not that bad.
Reality is though, you only make each trip once.. maybe twice depending on ladder positions.
Para Hills, Mawson Lakes, Brahma all within 10min of each other.
Smithfield is the odd one out really haha.

I just can’t blame the players if people are silly enough to pay it, I’m not sure how works in Adelaide but I even had blokes messaging looking for a couple hundred a game to play in our b grade side. That would be deal of a century for a footballer.
Different clubs in different positions so I can understand clubs that do it but you won’t see us doing the handshake photo thing in Facebook, if a player needs that to come play for us gtfo. Haha. Plus we only have a total of 5 points that are being used anyway so can’t really recruit haha
My motto is if you come to me offering your services for x amount you’re also going to do that even if we sign you so it’s a pass from me.
Do players actively shop themselves? I assumed it was the other way, not that I've been involved with clubs for a long while.
Mate of mine, his lad will get half a dozen messages each off season from various clubs. I assumed this was the norm!
