Yes, thanks Scott. I received the schedule from the club, but I can't enlarge it on my phone.

Adelaide playing a "home" game at Woodville?
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

Vs Port, at the closest ground you can get to Port territory without actually being in it.
I think this one could be a battle between which supporter base will be the most disinterested.
Or, ironically, you might get your biggest crowd for the year for any game involving either of these, owing to the fact that they are playing an opponent that matters according to their respective supporter bases.
Adelaide usually take their home games v Port to the country don't they?

Not enough Eagles fans to warrant it. The SANFL didn't want a repeat of last year's fiasco.

No, It's my educated opinion of what their thinking would have been.

Re: 2017 SANFL Fixture
Had a similar discussion on the other thread, it wasn't so much that the Eagles were involved, more so that the Eagles and West were playing each other.
Sturt v Eagles on Anzac Day at AO would be a different story. The SANFL have missed an opportunity to promote the league if this is their thinking.

Would have been 5-7K. Only worth doing if it's 10K plus.

Re: 2017 SANFL Fixture
You're probably right. I worry that Sturt v Eagles at Unley might only get 4-5K max. I hope I'm wrong of course, it'd be great to see it packed out. Possibly holds about 7,000 these days. I reckon not having it at AO will take away the prestige and result in a smaller crowd.

I agree that it would probably take a bit off the crowd. Stiff on the players as well who've earned the right to play on AO.

Re: 2017 SANFL Fixture
I am going to disagree, I think the ANZAC Day game at Unley will be fantastic.
With the match on a Tuesday (ie not on a weekend / long weekend) not many will be away.
It doesn't take many people to gave a good atmosphere at Unley, a crowd 6-7K would be awesome.
PLUS it should also mean a good income generator for Sturt.
Why should the Premier give up a home game with it's resultant gate, bar & canteen income?
Instead they should be rewarded with hosting the biggest game of the minor round...... good move for mine.

They seem to tick all the boxes around club structure,coaching and player quality.
