Not too many people pick on clubs that are bottom of the ladder

we know we are in trouble, the crows are flag favourites

Guy in prison in Britain managed to send in a fake email saying he was due for parole

took 3 days to realise the mistake

About time he rode a winner

hopefully he gets away from Craiglea Jabiru

Had a hit at Mawson Lakes
first hit since January
apart from a few shots most was rubbish

Quite simply the best post on this issue


You can see the lack of interest in the SANFL with very little activity in the match threads both prior to and after a match

The sanfl content on AA is in September. ......

never had that either

normal Pepsi is shite as it is

pepsi tastes like flat coke

Draw in the Q clash

ITs a disgrace that match is starting at 11-30am to appease the AFL club

bollocks the comp was heading downhill

Tex got a holding the ball decision his way early in the match when a port player picked up the ball and was tackled instantaneously.

not sure he had prior opportunity

just a slightly different point to the current discussion flow.

of the 5 games this weekend just past, only 1 of the games has gathered enough posts to break into the second page. says a lot really for the "increase of interest" when the reserves sides were introduced.

back in the distant past (2013 and before) games used to get several pages on pre game, and have new posts created to post in post game, which would also break into multiple pages. who would have thought that with the introduction of the reserves sides would increase the interest to such a point that no one feels the need to write anything about the games anymore. what a world we live in......

and some matches wouldn't have a preview thread up until the Wednesday, when in previous years most would be up sunday night or Monday and the discussion would move onto the next week, especially if you lost the previous week! :D

All about priorities

this belongs in both the SH1ts and Laugh thread

the Mrs runs a little business
she used to emply someone who then went out and created a business in the same industry - and no problem with that at all.
But
she then created a name which sounds very similar
she copies everything that my Mrs does on her facebook page - you can guarantee that anything my Mrs puts up is copied within 24hrs!!
even a competition my Mrs did, the competition did and basically copied and pasted everything and just changed a few words. Even the value of the prize was the same!
they are both signed up to a network which receive and forward on orders, and you can choose to accept or refuse those.
the competition complained to the network that my Mrs was covering areas that she also was prepared to cover.
the Network inadvertently sent the Mrs a copy of the communication - because the names are very similar!
the competition failed to mention the fact that there is another business, located in a major shopping centre that is between our house and hers that covers the WHOLE metropolitan area..... :roll:

They do say that being copied is the best form of flattery or something similar!

I didn't mind A Lotta Rosie
jumped to share the lead, wasn't pushed out at all.

Solid effort there, by yours Dutchy. fingers crossed it can take that form to the races!

always thought there was something fishy about ya Booney!

Richmond v Brisbane GF is obviously on the cards

Yeah I enjoyed the meals at TGIF
they are in the Ent Book if you have one

Great discussion tonight with Buckley and Roos. Talking about goal kicking and maligned players in watts Cloke and white, and Mitch Clark.

My favourite show on TV at the minute.


I 100% Agree with everything Roos said about the social media crap.

Forums are a form of social media too :)

LOL Well played. I knew that would've come up but, Roos was talking about things like "I'm having a coffee" or taking photos of your tea and posting them or dickheads who post things like "I am hungry" Here's an idea instead of posting that make a F@@king sandwich you wankers!
and then take a photo and post it

Damage is done

I don't know how much money the SANFL got in the Adelaide Oval deal, but if the other clubs don't want crows and port then the money that the SANFL get from a stadium they don't manage or licenses they don't control would also need to be reviewed. Also if the two teams go then seven's TV deal will probably get reviewed as well.

I would love to go back to the 80s and have 3 state leagues and 40,000 people supporting the local teams but it not going to happen as money control sports these days.

I was thinking about the future of the local league and I think it may become an under 18 competition for potential players for the draft and there will be an AFL reserve competition

I don't like it myself but once you open Pandora's box it is very hard to go back and the sad fact is the generation under 20 years probably couldn't care less about the SANFL.

Who is going to go to the games or keep this site going when we die?
Bullshit, the sanfl control a portion of the stadium management authority. They held a contract for all afl games in adelaide to be played at footy park. The sanfl are the custodians of aussie rules in this state. The pay off for them to agree to allow games to be moved to adelaide oval was seats and a funancial interest in the stadium management authority board room. That doesnt change if the reserves sides are no longer in the sanfl, and the $50k per team the crows play would be easily covered by people returning to watch (if its not too late) and by the season being longer.

Its a ******* joke that we gained a team but shortened the season. Kick the reserves teams out and we play 21 games instead of 18. Clubs get even more home games, the grand final is returned to its rightful place in october, everyone is happy, apart from the afl fanbois who i couldnt care less about..... i dont see any downside when it is looked at from the sanfl perspective
At some stage, there going to be a need for a review on how the national competition, local leagues, underage competitions will look like in the future and try to get some sort of agreed structure that won't satisfied everyone's needs but will be a workable model.

Just kicking the two teams out of the SANFL may make the small number of people on this forum happy but there is a wider football community that also need to be considered when getting the right model.

on your last sentence, it is clear that the SANFL football community are voting with their lack of attendance to matches.

surprisingly since the attendance thread was started a number of the pro-reserves posters have gone MIA.

They must be devastated about the thought of the reserves teams being booted out!

I agree, I think its time for the SANFL to re-invent itself.

No more AFL players being distributed throughout the SANFL clubs.

Double Headers would be a great idea, could start the first game at around 3pm and then start the second at around 6 or 6-30 as an example.

im taking the field to beat it in the exacta!

so we are left with 8 Clubs

we play eachother 3 times for a 21 round season

we play each other home and away and perhaps at a neutral venue as part of a double header to try and make the draw as fair as possible.

bring back the pre-season cup!

even though not all teams were trying to win there were some really good crowds in attendance and back then the SANFL and the Clubs did a lot of good promotion

well im glad that Sheikh JK has plenty of money to throw down the drain.........

sick puppy, doing it for nothing!

Congrats!

another housewarming party coming up for the SA FOOTY family

Gregers ew in the goody at $15

Williams is in form winning scone cup yesty

the man is still alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good work and well done

hopefully the lads make it a memorable victory and a big night on the turps

apart from Freo, Hawks, Swans, there are no other genuine Premiership contenders.

its a tough year to get a real good gauge on some sides. I think those that were in the finals last year have slipped a little, some lower sides last year have improved and now they are all fairly even with eachother and then there are the bottom couple

not nice to speak of booney whilst he is away

cos Booney is back in the country

Mick 3 flags
Buckley 0 and likely to be that way
