SA Footy

Current fee + 18 x 4000 x $14 fee for the missing spectators.

I'm torn...
Part of me would like to see the AFL collapse and go back to being the VFL we know they really are anyway, and lest us disband our "AFL" teams. The other part would like to see both the Crows and Power dash off to Victoria. and cease to exist in SA.

At present, while they are with us, I tend support them both when playing Victorian teams including South Melbourne and Fitzroy because I guess they are at least both semi-South Australian...

Is it just me or was that AFL game last night a boring waste of time?
The sooner we get back to some real attaching footy with real scoring in SANFL and in the Ammos the better!

Not just you. It was a boring waste of time. If you were a neutral supporter then it was pretty much unwatchable.

I didn’t mind it. Skills are always ordinary this early in a season. Intensity was good.

Sanfl reserves or AFL reserves teams ?

I’ve heard something about one AFL team and one SANFL club being a feeder club won’t say which two I’ve heard about

The talk has been West Adelaide. Don't see how any other SANFL team would agree to another "merging" with an AFL reserves side (as happened in WA with Peel Thunder). If they don't want to revert to how it used to be, then they can piss off.
One can only dream about no AFL reserves in SANFL. If you mean no SANFL reserves not a surprise given the SANFLs willingness to bow to the AFL.

That’s not the SANFL side I’ve heard about

I too have heard there will be no SANFL reserves rather the under ages with a few top ups OR no payments for the reserves at all.

Not me I’ve heard of one SANFL team not West becoming a feeder club I guess it’s called to one of the AFL sides

But that is league (if it unlikely happens) not the reserves

If we follow this line there would be no site mate. LOL

What would be the alternative options, if there was no Reserves, for the half dozen or so players that miss out on a league game? They play amongst the U18 team? They play for a local Amateur or Country team?

I'd cop this, if it meant no AFL Reserves in the SANFL.

No we would discuss the actual events and issues vis-à-vis the SANFL with occasional calling out of trolls and front runners!

This doesn't seem to fit in with another event.
Call me cynical (because I am) but I think the recent reduction in TPPS / APPS was to stem the flow of SANFL players to the Adelaide FL / country leagues.
There are plenty of cashed up clubs having not paid players this year
There's going to be a huge transfer if they bin the Reserves
