The answer is no Centrals were not an AFL reserves side last year because we are not 'one club ' with an AFL side
And the reason your club is now called the Power is because it was happy to sell its identity to get in with the rebranded VFL
If your club had as much pride in its emblem and colours as Eddie did you may not have had to sell your identity.
It's such a bad thing that our club wanted to play in the best competition in Australia? Port Adelaide joined the AFL because it didn't want to be stuck playing in a second rate competition. Port Adelaide had to pay a price and that was entering the AFL as the power and not the magpies, a pretty small price when all your true supporters knows it's still the PAFC.
The only difference between this year and last year, is now all those players that we have spent money and time developing will now be playing for us.
Face facts WHUFC the AFL is the best league in this country. The SANFL will always be a second rate comp which will never change no matter how much you cry about it.
