Statistician for the Saint Ignatius' First XVIII.. game against Scotch College at the same time as the State game. Otherwise, I may well have gone.

I go to the bay game every week. If it wasn't on tv I probably go but had the chance to stay home home with the kids, score some brownie points, and still catch the game on the ABC. Was a cracking game and I hope state league footy stays around for a long time. I'll be working pretty hard to get to the next game held in Adelaide.

Don't understand why you wouldn't go just because it is not played at Adelaide Oval. It's still your state playing !!!

Having a break wasnt an issue as the byes more than give a chance to do that. Absolutely no interest but it did give me something to watch when there were breaks in the AFL and Super 15 matchs on TV.
Well done to Paul Thomas for providing the only entertainment of the day. At least I caught that! :lol:

Opportunity to get a heap of work done at home (happy Mrs = Happy Ian)

Weather, I'd been crook earlier in the week and am still getting over it, didn't think 3 hours standing in the cold would do me any good.

The TV coverage was a bonus, gave me a good reason to have a break from the work, if she wanted to winge..............."I could have gone and got nothing done at home" ;)

Location and parking weren't an issue for me, 10 minutes away and easy parking on a motorbike, easier for me than Adelaide Oval

Not my reason but something I heard someone else mention during the week "I don't mind mixing with other supporters at a state footy game, but f*** standing on Snouts Hill with Snouts Louts and supporting the same team as them.........It ain't gunna happen!!"
