What was the feedback form North fans regarding the clubs statement Wedgie if you dont mind me asking.

The statement doesnt seem consistent on past messages released from the NAFC board.


Consistent and NAFC board in one sentence just dont sit well together at all.

Anyway, I can't wait for the 2011 Foxtel Cup! :D

I'm with you mate. Any chance to see my young team develop and gain experience against quality opposition the better.

Going to Sydney for a weekend to see the PAFC double header wont hurt either! ( Well, it will hurt the hip pocket )

Tell me about it! I can't drag the kids to a SANFL game a 15 minute drive away but of course the whole family wants to go to a Foxtel Cup match with a 2 hour plane flight .

I'm going to bring in qualification rules if we make this cup again and force them to attend a certain amount of SANFL games before they qualify for a Foxtel Cup match! :lol:

They've lost their best ruckman, their best key position player, their full back and possibly their best midfielder to AFL duties.


3 players ? What midfielder to AFL ? Callinan is a rookie which requires him to be upgraded first .


Well 5 players if you count Premiership players Richie Cochrane and Adam Switala. What's hard to understand about "nicknames" post? Three quality players, no need to list their achievements. The midfielder is Callinan. I think everybofy on this site would know he has to be upgraded first, hence I assume that's why nickname wrote possibly.
Personally, I think the Eagles and Bays will make top three this year.


Not sure ,never said it was ? Who mentioned anything about their achievements ? Sides have lost more than 3 - 5 players , as mentioned Centrals losses are more than covered.

As for the rest of your assessment of West's list,I agree fully with r&b's post.

Silly as it may seem some of us would like a thread with updates, scores & media releases on this concept. Alas you'll still have the same wobblyheads going over & over & over the same crap they've been sprouting since their clubs dropped out. Repeating the same argument 3 times a day doesn't make it true, just boring.
Hey soccer you owe us 45million.

From the NAFC website:

Foxtel Cup Uniform
Members are advised of the AFL approved uniform for North Adelaide. Given the potential clash uniforms and possible programming results, we have been allocated our alternate Guernsey – red ‘V’ on a white jumper. The uniform will include white shorts and hooped socks.

Still not as confused as the Port Magpie "fans" that think The Swans stole the Magpies club song.

Some good players in the clubs that West and North have in the first round.
Sunspots list includes Robert Shirley and Tim Inkster while Labradoe have Tim Notting and Aaron Shattock in their squad.

Will SANFL clubs have a four-man interchange bench for these matches? The VFL do, not sure about the other states but you'd think most of them would fall in line with the AFL. If so, it might ease the load a little bit on midfielders, allowing more rotations.

Tim Inkster no longer plays in the ACT.
He's playing for Loxton in 2011.
