Can't disagree with that clock too much but I would have Port at 6.00pm and Sturt back to the same time.

Pretty good article. Have heard whispers from Alberton that they are quietly confident of making the finals this year... Who would have thought that 10 years ago "Port happy to make the 5" :-k

The "Premiership Clock" theory only applys to the AFL, and usually is taking into account draft picks (priority picks) and salary cap pressures. Looks like the journalist has looked at the betting market, and place a time according to the teams price.

P.s. I thought clocks has 24 hours.

If it did, it would say 1 O'Clock to 24 O'Clock.

Yes but if I was rating the sides, I would put Centrals at 12:01am. ;)

I think the article pretty much refelcts my thoughts on where clubs are at and their chances for a premiership. Why the fascination with my opinion or lack thereof HP?
