Does Roo still have that car yard on main north road? The Alma hotel? Hotel in port Lincoln? Anything else?

I think you need to get your facts right about Edwards.

From my perspective I think people in SA are starting to feel dis-enfranchised with the comp. These are some points affecting this.
Apart from the local media, any national media is a revolving solar system with Victoria at it's hub.
The GF will never be played anywhere else but Victoria.
The Brownlow has never been held anywhere else but Victoria.
The Brownlow is just another tired VFL hangover.
The draw has become a farce and re-affirms that the comp can't be taken seriously.
The tribunal is only ever held in Victoria, thus non Vic based players have to fly in order to put fwd a valid not guilty case before the tribunal, not helpful if their team is travelling for the next round or has just travelled.
I hate to say it, I can never give credence to a comp when a club like Power are not able to take their history into the AFL when Victorian clubs can.
People are getting irritated with the ever changing rules and interpretations.
People are absolutely sick and tired of the media speak and glib replies from clubs and AFL hierachy when it comes to some of their real concerns, the AFL, Demitriou, Geishen and Anderson are the biggest offenders of this and are rarely held to account, the few times when they are they babble on with spin and bullsh/t.
I'm sure others can add to this but I think that the SA footy public aren't buying the hype and spin of it anymore and are voting with their feet and wallets.

Dogwatcher wrote:Cutterman, I don't necessarily agree with your POV on all of those comments, however for factual purposes you should change your comment about the Brownlow to "The Brownlow has rarely been held out of Melbourne".
It has previously been held in Sydney.
