No love for the SANFL down there. People were amazed when I played in the SFL that I still followed North closely.
Its all about the SFL and AFL down there.

Fair enough, not winning a premiership in about 6 decades wouldnt help either

South have been very good since Bamford has been down there, regularly attends SFL games and meets with the SFL clubs (even ones not in their zone) this is now showing in the u18's performances. Pity he is leaving but hopefully the momentum he has created will continue, albeit this sort of stuff should have happened decades ago. I suspect South thought it would just happen when they moved to Noarlunga.

SOUTH Adelaide is denying it is the prime mover to form a “super club” in the SANFL with a merger of three teams.
Panthers chief executive Neil Sharpe has dismissed claims on radio by esteemed SA football identity Ken “KG” Cunningham that South Adelaide, West Adelaide and Glenelg are in talks for consider a three-club merger.
“I think I would have been at any of those meetings - formal or informal,” Sharpe told advertiser.com.au this morning.
“It definitely is not coming from us.
“Certainly times are tough, but a merger has not been mentioned by us - not at all.”
South Adelaide’s response follows Glenelg and West Adelaide telling The Advertiser on Monday there was no substance to reports of the SANFL becoming an eight-team State league with an amalgamation of the three clubs.
The SA Football Commission - which has representatives attending SANFL club board meetings - also has dismissed a repeat of the Woodville-West Torrens merger in 1990.
Glenelg president Nick Chigwidden told The Advertiser: “It’s not happening - certainly not with Glenelg. We are in no (merger) discussions.”
West Adelaide chief executive David Grenvold added: “We can categorically deny that we are looking to merge.
“Amalgamations are not part of our plans.”
