the $$$ would still come in

its footy money not Port and Crows money

I used to go to Port games as a neutral thanks to free tickets from the SANFL.

I brought beers and chips to support footy in this state not Port.

So I want the profit from my $$$ going back to the SANFL thanks.


Correct - $88 million back to the SANFL Clubs via the stadium hosting games, not exclusively by the Crows or Power.

If there was a Gold Coast Suns fan on here they could also legitimately have claimed to contribute to the funds back to the SANFL Clubs.
Nah, for the deals to make money there are a lot of requirements on Crowd sizes.

Only a composite born in a boardroom desk drawer aluminium club (that was manufactured because of Port) and... Port... could make it work.

You're all welcome. Write your platitudes in to Alberton.

If you exclude welfare payments, have Port ever made a profit?

I feel for morrell though, we'll all chip in so that you can get some new teeth, but sorry that we can't help you find out who your Dad is.

So let me get this straight

When Port and tha Crows generate money, it's "footy" money? But when the $ANFL clubs generate money, thats their money?

That's some bullshit $ANFL Boomer math mate.

When your playing at a SMA/SANFL manged venue yes, yes it is....

That's modern footy business, SAFooty Acquaintance,

You wanted to join the big footy world mate
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Imagine being so cooked as to think that losing the 500 supporters of the 1996 franchise and the 3 supporters of the 1990 franchise (and their apricot slice) that actually attend their reserves games, is going to have any impact on the SANFL, let alone a drastic one. (Nine years and counting that we've been waiting for fans of the cancers to explain what benefit their reserves offer to the SANFL, BTW).

Methinks the wharfie doth protest too much...
:lol:
It's not the crowd sizes. It's the respect and marketability the competition has amongst younguns. Which in turn erodes the business model.

Not one kid wants to grow up to play for Westies. Or Glenelg.

Their heros aren't Liam McBean or James Battersby.

No one imagines running down the wing on Prospect Oval in front of a dozen old farts.

I agree the AFL teams didn't offer much to the $ANFL, they couldn't, it's like giving a heart attack victim an apple.

Some stereotypes to keep us living in the past. How clever.

You know you've won the argument when ;)

In all seriousness I do feel for some of you. Change is hard. Especially when Port leaves you in the dust. I get it.

You'll all be ok.

I hate to tell you, but the kids don't really use Facebook. I wouldn't be surprised if he's forgotten all about it.

Someone needs to download this thread into a book!
It’d be a best selling fiction book.

I’m not.
I’m a Magpies fan who doesn’t give a shit about the Power!

Bring back the 80’s and early 90’s.
