They can watch Sam kick it 25m to nobody now.

I attended a SANFL game at Alberton last season and it was a dingy, almost mournful atmosphere. Clearly support for the Magpies continues to drain away despite whatever spin KT puts on it. Perhaps in this economic climate support only carries so far. That would be the kind interpretation of the Magpies state. Given the 'system' though they are stacked well for talent and South Adelaide have taken a massive hit. I hope Eddy and Leinert get a go at the AFL sooner rather than later.

The Port crowd was one of the unique phenomenae in SANFL footy. Even after they went into the AFL there were plenty of Port folk that stayed loyal to the Magpies, and when Port were doing well, a certain number of Power fans would turn up also.
When they made their bid to convert the Magpies into the Power reserves, even the Port cheer squad held uup the "No AFL in the SANFL" banner, prompting a visit from one of the Port dicks from upstairs to lecture them about how much better it would be once the Magpies are no more
I'd rather be a Lion free on the plains than in a zoo. The Magpies are no longer free, they're caged. They are not even puppets, their skin has been stretched around the Power's seconds side. Calling them the Magpies is just complete crap, it's bullshit. They are the Power's reserves, and they have thoroughly kicked the interest out of what loyal fans held on.

I think that's now every thread in the SANFL forum to have this, or something like this, posted in it. Well played to those who bring it into a conversation that this has nothing to do with.

As opposed to the"everything about Port sucks" brigade, I appreciate them for what they were, and genuinely feel for those true supporters who have had their side taken away. Does it bother you so much that the Power reserves alienated such a large portion of Magpie fans?
And I'll keep crapping on about it for as long as the situation exists. On top of that, the Power just drafted 4 other SANFL lads to the Magpies. How that's not related to the Magpies not having a soul is something you're going to have to explain Mr Boon.

There is hope for the lad......... as Kane Cornes made himself a 300 game player doing the same thing!

[Dogs72]

Sam Colquhoun & Tom Read confirmed at Sturt

Booooo. Do Central get a transfer fee, or is all that now obsolete? I think we paid a large transfer fee to Sturt for Mcintyre (unfortunately)?

[Dogs72]

Dogs have signed the future.

[Big Phil]

Central District have secured John Butcher's signature...

I hope we didn't pay what he was asking originally.

[Big Phil]

I hope we didn't pay what he was asking originally.

Which was?

[amber_fluid]

I hope we didn't pay what he was asking originally.

He's your future now...... I'm sure he's worth every cent!

I reckon he'll be good in this league without the pressure from Alberton.
I'd still play him at CHB though, he reads the play well, can mark/spoil & have the runners go past & receive the handball.

I m not looking forward to watching Leinert line up against us next year.
I enjoyed watching his old man play for Sturt, and I have watched him develop with interest. Taking the next step and becoming an AFL player is something we have learned to live with, way back in the days when Motley, Viney, Russell and co were all being drafted.
It ******* well stinks that they should line up with another SANFL side because they have been chosen to take that next step.
How the hell are we supposed to react on the terraces where Leinert tears it up fo rthe Magpies at Unley? Can't hate the man, he's one of ours! The only reason he's at Port is to have a chance to play AFL. Do we give him a polite golf clap then? Do we treat the game as a meaningless exhibition whose only real purpose is to develop those reserves palyers out on the park?
******* Port and Crows are ******* stinkers for pushing this reserves agenda through.
Anyone who doesn't feel the same basically has no passion for the SANFL.

That's what the SANFL are trying to do - make them all meaningless exhibition games. Us supporters are being pushed into corners we shouldn't be by having these situations occur.

Butch, cant believe we managed to get him, when i heard the dogs were interested i thought it must have been the western bulldogs.

Will be surprised if the beast kicks less than 100 goals this season.

If Centrals premiership odds havent come into $1.01 jump on toot toot

Welcome Butch!

Welcome Butch!

If he kicks 100 goals must be taking a lot of marks in the forward 50 and having 700 shots st goal!

[Jim05]

Let's hope he turns out as good as the last bloke that was going to kick 100 goals a season at the Dogs[emoji3]

Around the 40 grand mark I was told.

Probably because every facet of the SANFL is affected by these bull$hit inequities. Until they're sorted out it won't stop and why should it. Why should anyone stop voicing their opinions if it still is a major issue in a comp we all love. Tough titties if it makes some feel uncomfortable in their ugly advantages while spruiking fairness, equal footing, we get what we deserve bullshit in the media.
Surely it's not that hard to understand.

You spelt Butcher wrong.

[Booney]

Going to be terrible watching Butch and Sammy play against Port. I'll have to look away.

Please, go on about it some more. Here, I'll help.

[CUTTERMAN]

We've all had to put up with the myopic, paranoid carping by Port supporters as to how unjust they've been treated by the SANFL, how Footy Park was too "Crows" centric, how the SANFL has stolen all their money etc etc. What's the difference? Apart from the fact one is founded in clear evidence and the other comes across as a speech that Trump would make.
