Will be great to watch professional footballers run around on a country ground in a competitive game!
I'm tipping Port here. Whole team is in great form and Buddha is clearly getting his message across more and more every week. The likes of Moore, P.Stew, O'Shea and Newton could be in the Power team easily now and the new top up players are looking good. Take particular notion of young Zac Hawkins, a real star of the future and a Port Adelaide boy. The diverse backgrounds of this team really show what Port Adelaide is about, a team for everyone, and i'm loving watching it! To Clare!

Take centrals vs south for instance. Not even 2k at the game, im sure if that was played at Nuri on the sunday they would have gotten more than that. How it works with splitting revenue im not sure.
The condition of grounds would probably be the main concern i would think. There may not be a huge amount of grounds suitable for an SANFL match in some areas
