Whilst many valid points they all fall down around this one.
There is no way that the AFL will fund a national reserves competition now that it has the NEAFL, VFL, WAFL and SANFL serving this very purpose ( giving the left over AFL listed players a game ) without costing the AFL a cent.
The NEAFL is completely controlled by the AFL, you could argue the VFL and WAFL is too and ( watch them jump on this ) the SANFL is JUST standing on it's own two feet.....JUST.

The bloke is a ******* parrot, absolute ******* parrot who would tell you Trump is the best option in the US if he heard someone at a bus stop say so.
He's a moron. Any move worth making is rooted if he's the front man.

Great stuff!
I think we have a lot to thank Roy Laird for here. His public complaint seems to have caught the public at exactly the right time.
I was in a shopping center at Norwood just before the Sturt/South game with my Sturt scarfe on. The young lady who served me turns out to be a Sydney/Central fan, and just out of the blue starts complaining about the reserves. She got no disagreement from me, and I took it as sign that there has been a shift in perception (I wear my Sturt or Carlton scarfe everywhere, people always comment on the scarfe in terms of what it represents, no one has ever spoken in a "reserves out" manner to me before).
Now I am reading that MMM is finally giving air time to the anti reserves side of the argument, and every caller spoke of discontent with the current set up.
Six heritage clubs have apparently held a non sanctioned meeting to discuss dissatisfaction.
Now Jarman is firing shots off!
I so bloody hope this keeps gaining momentum!!!

Don't need him as a front man, but the more people, especially public people backing the cause the better.
Wouldn't you say Booney?

Do you really think they would just accept it?

There's also a chance people will hear Jarman going berko and not hear the message because of the noise.

Just listening to Sam Jacobs on MMM now, Jars asked him about the issue, Sam seems not to understand that it was an issue before the Ravens won on the weekend. "It was just an elimination final, it wasn't a grand final".
That's just one issue of many Sammy, and they've been around a lot longer than that too.

Jeez hasn't Sammy Jacobs lost some intelligence over his time at West Lakes......I can clearly recall under the old system when he was coming back from injury playing for the bottom placed reserves side, telling his Adelaide Development coach to 'Get ****** I'm playing the last quarter' as the team he was playing for was in with a shot of a win, my oh my how times change

You really think he would say anything but tow the line?

The subject is also getting top billing on FIVEaa. Of course both Rowey and Bickley can't understand why it's a problem. Reading all the text messages that are coming in, the Crows supporters just don't get it.
