Kym Morgan in today's Advertiser, on Norwood v Adelaide this Friday.
" There is the possibility of a farcical situation where Adelaide could field 21 top up players in a move that would hurt the competitions integrity"
Well Kym, new to football?
Have any idea on what the introduction of the reserves sides has done to the integrity of the SANFL (you may know it as the state league)?
Has your reporting of the CROWS and PORT regarding the benefits they bring to the league met any, yes any of the stated expectations (I refer to your articles in 2014).
In the article, you say Heath Younie said that the well being of his younger players had to take priority.
These comments could and perhaps should have lead to some good questioning, such as if the well being of the young players is a priority, why do some of the top up players play twice such as Justin Bollenhagen who did his hamstring in the second match?
Given that you are playing in THEIR competition, shouldn't you play by their rules?
And finally, do you really think that Heath Younie would have much influence over the final decision given his role?
My tip is that Younie has almost no say on matters like this and his views do not replicate those of Phil Walsh and other Crows hierarchy who have publically stated that the AFL is already getting too far away from grassroots footy.
Leave the suckholing to Rucci.
