Thought that, or make the double header a twilight elimination into a night qualifying.

nowadays finals should be played in the suburbs and not as double headers.
The time has passed for this old thinking/ strategy.
Crowds will bomb again at AO as most followers will leave after the first game.
Time to create some suburban atmosphere with promotion and much needed income.
Maybe next year we will see a change.

It is for this reason League finals continue to be held at the SANFL's best playing field....plus as a neutral who wants to trek to Elizabeth or Noarlunga to watch some footy between 2 teams they don't support?am Bays wrote:VALE PARK wrote:Apart from the GF,

Hopefully not. All stakeholders need to be considered in this.
SANFL players and officials deserve the opportunity to play at Adelaide oval given their emotional and time commitment to SANFl footy since Nov the previous year.
No SANFL oval apart from Woodville has the the space capacity (changerooms wise) for double headers (Potentially four different clubs with senior teams playing at the same location.
Spectators need to be taken into consideration but the people who commitment to their SANFL club for over 10 months a season do to.
