. “You take out 5 of your listed players today and replace them with kids or country league jobbers”

Which then compromises the comp in a different manner...

As usual this is only an issue when they are winning


And when they are not winning they're not trying.

Im with MW, there's no reason Adelaide United would get beaten by Manchester City. Salary is irrelevent. :lol: :lol:

There's obviously not an IQ test to become a Crows or West supporter.

Glenelg are still the best side by far, our Ammo boys stood up today though.

I’ve always maintained they are too good and wouldn’t care if they were forced to field a team that was beaten by 10 goals every week. They absolutely should not ever be allowed to win a flag


If Port or Adelaide can win a flag than AFL listed players is the least of the SANFL problems. They need to cap the amount payments true amateur footballers are getting to keep quality players at SANFL level. SANFL clubs also need to stop paying reserve players and reward higher payments for the league players. This will ensure that Port or Adelaide will never win a flag, not capping the amount of SANFL standard AFL players playing SANFL.


Nope the SANFL needs to lift the salary cap and if the clubs cant afford it the AFL should subsidise it. Basically double it to about 700k, and increase of about 300k or 2.4m per year. chicken feed for the AFL to ensure their franchises keep getting talent through the doors.
Either that or I like Cennals idea, all 8 clubs just agree to play their league side in the reserves and vice versa


Good way of flushing $50k a year from the league down the toilet. Knowing that Centrals and South voted no are they accepting the money from the SANFL?

It is in a country where it's your number one sport compared to a country where its fourth in the pecking order. Man City's B grade of course?

No, the comp is terrible when they are poor also (Crows last year).

The issue is their SANFL output is purely determined via their injury list

Those 2 are capable of posting decent stuff, but when we get to THIS particular issue, common sense and an ability to keep track of a conversation go flying out the window.

Yeah, sorry about that. It's just that I've always found the alluded point an interesting one.

The magpies are the original PAFC. The power are a 1990s creation that has chosen to appropriate undeserved history in recent years for commercial reasons. It's a very convenient story to swallow to make everything fit neatly to suppose that one has always been the other.

Going very well, Well Played. Good luck in the GF.

Yours truly,

Fan who wants to see an all AFL reserves GF as it may be the only way to send a rocket up the fans of the other clubs and start some real action happening.

With 2 afl reserve teams playing, and a combined membership of 100000+, a crowd of about 11000 seems a bit poor

About 15 of the 40 or so people in the Adelaide cheer squad got changed between games into their Glenelg jackets so the numbers are a little skewed.

All good, if anything the outlook looks a lot brighter as this might just hasten the exit of the two sides from the comp.
Better get your Chinese contacts to start printing out those T-Shirts now ;)
