I know it clashes with the AFL but so does playing at Unley. I would have preferred AO. Have we bent to the powers that be or finances ? The SANFL requires tradition and an add on to celebrate the day and respect the people that go into the city.
Was it played at AO in 2016 Goddy?
Yeah it was and barely attracted 3000 fans.
I don't think the crowd size is important. The 2 grand finalists should play at AO regardless on Anzac day .
The cricket people play Sheffield Shield there with a couple of hundred patrons with no complaints .
Tend to agree Goddy. There's also a continuance of that slow erosion of the SANFL's prestige in the decision.
I dare say Sturt v Eagles would get at least a few more than West v Eagles.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail
