If I need to spell it out to you, they want to be in the AFL side, but also cannot/will not be dropped to the reserves, unlike previously in the SANFL, so you have to wonder what their mindset.
In the other hand they were playing against players last night that have busted their gut all their life to make SANFL level. It was interesting to watch the different body language and team play of both sides, vastly different.

Young was excellent and will get a well deserved call up in the next couple of weeks I imagine. Harvey and Byrne-Jones for debutants showed a lot of promise. Logan and Stewart were good enough. Mitchell was good inside but lacked outside run. That would be it. O'Shea is injured and shouldnt be playing, Colqhoun was poor, Neade disappointing, Amon lacked consistency of effort, AhChee wont be on the list next year and Renouf is the ruck equivalent of a NFL punter.

Exactly why Port wanted to maintain our 18's, reserves and SANFL league structure to avoid the "gifting" of games. I guess we work to the system the other clubs want us to and we end up with no SANFL reserves to work the players through.
That's the system they wanted, they've got it.

Nothing to do with developing fringe players with a view to drafting them of course.

Or Richard Kelly who after being on the Norwood board that changed their vote to yes promptly took up a role with Power.
