SA Footy

I havent any news but I was wondering if the 20/20 was being conducted again?? Its a great spectacle! If so who will be playing in it this year hopefully it gets bigger and better with different clubs from different leagues.

Starters i believe if happening

Happy Valley ... ofcorse
Mt Lofty ... Definates to retain their title

how does it work i didnt make it down there to watch last year. is it just two 20 min halves knockout or... what teams entered last year etc

Last year it was:

Happy Valley
Mt Lofty
Reynella
Edwardstown (I think)

There are 2 games consisting of 2x20 min halves each Friday night. Each team plays the other teams once and from the results, there is a play off for 1st and 2nd and also a play off for 3rd and 4th.

I'm pretty sure this was the format but I am happy to be corrected.

You got it spot on Brocky !

well said soo any got any news on it for net year???? last year wasnt there crowds of 3000

i heard bigger than 3000, closer to 4000?

i didnt make it up to have a look last time, but will definetly make time to get up there if its on again.

I've been to have a look a few times and there was a good sized crowd each time. I really gets you in the mood for the footy season to come round again, although it's good to be on the sidelines sinking a few brews on the stinking hot nights!

why only 4 teams surely more would better

ohhh totally agree i beleive if there is more teams they compete in divisions just like the river land pre season cup i believe except this format is way better ( at night, on a friday, and over numerous weeks)

as a pre season exercise this year we had our own trial of 20/20 at encounter bay all the sides were reasonably matched and was a great way to check the standards of some other leagues. I highly recomend other SFL clubs working towards their own inter-league 20/20

Don't think clubs playing majority of underdone Fringe A-graders in Jan/Feb is a true indication of the standard of the league.....

Point taken, but 1underdone club vs another kind of evens out wouldn't you say

nah some clubs have great depth traditionally. The crowds are great and it is for the good of the local game I agree, but personally I reckon it's too early. Enjoy summer people

the 20/20 format is absolutely great and from wat ive heard all teams that enter the competition treat it as a way to sort of see wat some of there junoir and senoir colts are like, i think its a great way to help clubs with there preseason, because when you are chasing a ball you always go hard therefore will get more out of it than a 2hour training session
