Barossa Districts would look like they are the hot favourite again, with some great pick-ups
Taunuda as always will be very strong and Gawler Central look like they will press also.
Cant see anyone else getting over the top of these 3 this year. A race in 3 for the flag.
Yardy normally you speak a fair bit of crap but your comparisions with A1 and BLG is fairly accurate.
However you fail to acknowledge that all A1 teams are on 15 points while the Might Magpies are only on 3 points.
Give us 4 extra quality players that we can afford and we would not only be a top four side but we would play in the GF and probably take away the choclates.
It stinks that SAAFL still giive all their teeams 15 points and we have that stupid sliding scale.
And while I am at it the BLGFA rule that no clearances inter league is the best rule we have as it stops clubs poaching players from within.
Bloody South tried changing the rule due to missing out on Fry and trying to back door clubs with Dunne.
South really think clubs that stupid and try to get away with rule change at AGM.
Seems we are having not many in's this year for BLG teams or do we need to wait until clearances start next week to have clubs play there cards.
Thanks for that Uncle Sam. Geez.....and you think others speak a fair bit of crap. Good to see you are not just restricted to speaking crap about points at AGM's to delegates, but with most things on here.
Again, you go down the path of speaking crap with thinking that Tanunda would have a chance of picking up the "chocolates" at D1 level of the SAAFL. Just a little bit naive there champ, but keep at it and you will get there......one day.
I said Tanunda, would just play D1 in the SAAFL competition and them picking up 4 more players, would only make them into a finals side and they would still be a country mile away, from winning the flag.
The Barossa league is a fantastic competition and has many outstanding qualities that the SAAFL do not have, such as atmosphere at finals or Grand Finals, but the standard of the SAAFL is absolutely top notch.
The biggest problem that Tanunda would face is playing quality opposition each week. At the moment they play only a few sides that challenge them, as many of the sides in the Barossa League are of D2 standard and down the D3. Playing quality sides week in and week out, with probably only two sides being average would be the thing that gets them. They in effect, they would need another 5-6 players to cover for the injuries they would sustain, and playing at a higher level, that they were not accustomed. Their depth would be seriously tested, if they tried to compete at D1 level.
If you want the extra points or 15 points per side, I am sure that you could manage it in your position. If your decisions makers still give you a sliding scale of points, then replace them, on competency grounds.
Next time champ, think about it a bit more before responding, with something silly and fictional.
