He's a Clayton's Captain - the captain you have when you're not having a captain.
We've had a few of them.

No kidding?
Just for comparison, I wonder what the Crows training restrictions are on AO this week? It'd have to be the same, seeing as half their squad will be playing South on that same surface, in a semi final no less.

That might be the case, however IF the end result is the Crows/Ravens are allowed greater access owing to their AFL status, it would hardly be fair on the side that has to play them. Imagine only training on the wings when you are due to play a semi final on that same, unfamiliar surface. Even if the same restrictions apply to the Ravens they still have the advantage of training/playing at the venue throughout the season. It is just another sign of how the Ravens just don't work in the SANFL.

I seem to remember the Eagles trained on Football Park (like, the whole oval) once before every final they played there.

AFL goal posts are just that little bit taller and stronger than SANFL ones

I would have thought goal kicking practice would be valuable, especially at the river end.
