His latest argument is that SANFL supporters had a go at Port over the tarps and the reason that Port supporters weren't going to games was because they were protesting how the club was being run. So SANFL supporters are hypocrites for protesting about the reserves and having a go at Port about the tarps.
He also said the Crows should be in on the same model as the Power and that the Power shouldn't lose their academy side because that's not fair to all the sons of Port greats that are in the team.

How many of the other 8 teams have improved their membership base? Face the facts that the SANFL is just a breeding pond for the AFL.
SANFL always has and always will be a breeding ground for the AFL, we don't dispute that fact, but thats just part of the competition, its not the 100% sole purpose that Port and the Crows - and the AFL - would like. It should also be a genuine 2nd tier comp for 2nd tier players, either guys with AFL aspirations, retiring/delisted AFL players or grassroots footballers that want to play the highest level they can. Clubs that the local community can engage with in suburbia and support on an even playing field.
Sadly it is all skewed to the AFL wants...and thats what has pissed off many.

Well no he said the exisintt zone halved for Adelaide.
Booney maybe alot of things but he isnt an arrogant flog. Just a flog [emoji6]
It's ok stan, I'm used to people just shooting from the lip at me being a Port fan. I'd expect most to read before that fire a shot, but that's a dying skill too.

I read it and it is arrogant.
What you are saying is effectively dilute the SANFL even further by giving the Adelaide Crows 2 more squads, a Reserves Reserves squad and an Academy squad. Forget about zones.
That'd be even worse than it is now.
I'm never sure if you are genuine or just a clever troll sometimes Booney

First of all, you may have read it, but obviously not understood it, didn't understand it at all.I didn't say give the Adelaide FC two more squads. Port's Academy side plays in the SANFL reserves.
What I suggested was that before the SANFL split up Ports zones and realigned to the other SANFL clubs, I think it should have been split in two. Adelaide get half, and Port get half. No impact on the SANFL clubs zones, as they were.
From that zone Adelaide and Port obtain top up players to their SANFL sides, thus creating an SANFL league side and an SANFL reserves side for both teams. Surely this is better for the SANFL as a whole. None of this mess with the league and reserves sides playing completely different fixtures.
Then you could limit the amount of AFL listed players in the league at any time ( say 12-14 ) with the surplus playing SANFL reserves.
The top up players could be limited to under 23, not ever having been AFL listed or from another SANFL club, basically from the zones (half zone) only. One leadership player ( Summerton / Callinan ) only.
So before you call me arrogant or a troll, make sure you get what I'm saying.

That would solve the issue of playing completely different teams.
As for limiting AFL listed players, that should be a given anyway. No more than 14 max, assuming we re going to be stuck with the AFL Reserves.
Your arrogance is that you think Port has the right model and Adelaide should get it too.

You still don't get it, do you?
If neither side has a team in the reserves competition then when Port v South takes place, who does South's two's play if Port has no SANFL reserves side? Who does West's two's play if the league is playing Adelaide, kapish?

So Souths or Wests reserves play at a different ground or on a different day to the league? How will that work with support staff, coaches, etc etc?

They can play before either the South or West League game as they won't have games before them.
