SANFL 2025

PHOS are in Glenelg's zone.

Doesn't matter though as there'd be kids from West who play for PHOS

I’m told each club has a full time junior coordinator, the one they have now works hard and perhaps the previous one wasn’t quite as hard working. It’s about building relationships and being organized

Just looking at the map you're not blessed with particularly fertile football grounds, bar the Riverland.

Port Road / South Road to Port Road / Sturt Road and surrounds isn't a particularly fertile area rich with top amateur clubs and the Coorong / Mallee areas seem to be more and more about clubs merging than growing.

That must play a role.

Might be time for a recast of the zones then?

Goes on address than club I think?

Same with Mitcham and Unley

[wenchbarwer]

Guaranteed

There are some very good local clubs though like Goodwood, Plymton, Edwardstown and PHOS (if they are in the zone)

Flagstaff Hill are also in the zone, but have a mix of West, South & Sturt kids

100% it does, we changed zones in the mid 2010's

[wenchbarwer]

The magic bullet knowing who's in your catchment zone.

Many moons ago I was involved with the Bays underage stuff, and the U13 carnival they run was great, the Matt Bode cup. Basically had approx. 100 twelve & thirteen year old kids, playing a round robin with the U13 squad picked from that. All those names had an eye kept on them, and were added/removed over the next few years, feeding into the U16s & U18s.

Goodwood definitely feed West I know that

Yep, was only PHOS I was unsure of.

In 10 years the $71m is gone?

$45 Mill went to paying off the debt the SANFL accrued in propping up the AFL franchises you know like changes to footy park from 1997-2012

The remaining $$$ has gone to eight SANFL footy clubs

But you already knew that

So $71m-$45m ( I can't find anywhere that states the debt was ever that high ) even with this half century old mush is $26m over 10 years and given it was drip fed to SANFuL clubs was the balance not invested to gain a return?

After the first distribution was there not say $22-24m left gaining interest? Even at a modest return there would be significant interest earnt. Enough almost to cover another years distribution ( basing it on 8 clubs getting the same nominal amount each year ) and so on and so on.

Koch asked where the future fund went and it got swept under the carpet.

SANFL at the end of 2023:

$104M net assets
$4M profit for the year

CLG, Plympton & Kenilworth are in the zone.
There'd be a few Westies kids in the clubs adjacent to their metro zone, too. Mitcham, Unley, Henley, Lockleys, PHOS, Morphy Park, etc.

Theres probably funds being diverted into trusts so they dont have to report as high a profit and consequently dont have to distribute money back to.....

**** knows where they got that idea from

I’m told each club has a full time junior coordinator, the one they have now works hard and perhaps the previous one wasn’t quite as hard working. It’s about building relationships and being organized

The previous Junior Co Ordinator at West is now the Senior football boss so if that is true then that is not a good sign.

I think that is a different person to what I am thinking of.

CLG numbers are growing each year to their credit, Kenilworth have none or barely any junior teams.

$45 Mill went to paying off the debt the SANFL accrued in propping up the AFL franchises you know like changes to footy park from 1997-2012

But you already knew that

From an ABC news article November 2014:

The SANFL received an immediate payment of $10 million from the deal with Commercial and General, and said the money had been transferred to the AFL to reduce debt.

From 2016, the local league will get progressive payments totalling another $61 million by 2027 during the staged redevelopment of the West Lakes precinct.

Football Commission chairman John Olsen said the sale process had been lengthy.

"We are pleased to have achieved this outcome after a very lengthy and detailed evaluation process," he said.

"By securing an upfront payment of $10 million we have been able to extinguish our debt with the AFL, money we borrowed as part of the $16.25 million we gave to Port Adelaide to keep the club viable ahead of the move to Adelaide Oval.

"AFL football, league football, club football in South Australia will be the beneficiaries - in no debt and [with] the opportunity then to build a future fund for football."

Another article from June 2024:

The SANFL flagged its move to West Lakes in October, pitching a $26.9 million investment in the former AAMI Stadium precinct to use the ground for its state under-16s, under-18s, First Nations and multicultural talent programs.

and Glenelg, there are kids that live 200m from Flaggy oval that are in South's zone (Black Rd in the boundary), all depends on where you live.

So, who's gonna win the flag this year?

I suspect you already know the answer. Your mob would be the shortest priced favourites in memory

SANFL believe they can clear $45m crippling debt in next decade

THE state’s football body expects to have cleared its crippling debt within a decade after the sale of Football Park to developer Commercial and General for $71 million.
