thoughts?
I hear Hills have pulled out of Ass footy?
Isn't this the age old discussion point of why do we even play at this oval at all!!! I thought we were a grassroots competition anyway. Bring back the local venues just like the GSFL.
Too many players won't play unless money is involved !!!
I know for a fact Mitts tried to get the game played a local ground. Any ground in the SFL he wanted to play at to try and gain an advantage and get a better feel about the Association footy. The response he received from Warman and Co was about the following issues:
Easier for Crowd management and control regarding alcohol
financially made a commitment to SAFC with partnership and SFL offices being there.
Personally i reckon it is absolute crap that we have to have it at Hickenbotham oval, it is always cold, windy and a shit atmosphere. GSFL had it at Strathalbyn last year, how good would it have been to see a night Association game at Port Noarlunga??
Looking at the squad
IF they can get their best side on the park then i reckon the Barbarians will be quite good. Any early predictions on who will play or not.
