The never ending No AFL in the SANFL whinge thread

[Dogs72]

Back page of today's Sunday Mail mentions a meeting of 6 of the 8 SANFL clubs at Prospect, held "without the endorsement of the SANFL governing body". Anyone have any knowledge of this?

Please, please tell me it's a glimmer of hope! Please tell me some club boards have found their backbone. Please tell me the SANFLs betterment, survival and growth is now their priority not their personal resumes, business interests or recruitment sanctions being lifted. Please tell me, I'll be able to take my young family to the SANFL next year rather than give up. Will the boards actually listen to their members and not try to defend the indefensible? Can they get rid of Olsen and the goose from the wafl that is only seeking afl personal advancement?

Apparently discussed "a range of issues, with deep concerns over the future of the State League". Also mentions "the future of the independent SANFL Commission, fixturing and ongoing club funding".
Names names of attendees. South and West didn't attend.
Maybe the rumblings are increasing.

I bloody well hope so

WAFL next year is looking at becoming named AFL WA and of course that will lead to the change here to AFL SA which we all have said was a matter of time

If north were involved they were probably just meeting to decide how to spin everything as a positive. The message on website hits didnt work, they will now try something else....

I can see it now. The SANFL has bent over to accomodate channel 7 and the afl games broadcasting time slots. Despite promises of no costs for commercial coverage it's cost the SANFL teams $300k (to promote mainly port and crows). Now watch it get dropped for the women's league. "Our" competition is run by incompetent cowards.

Roy Laird bit fined by the SANFL. Out of tune wankers, they should be rewarding him for speaking the truth and trying to open their eyes to something that is wrong! Let's find out how much the fine was and start a crowd funding campaign for Roy.

Like those 2 idiots will listen to him. That clown Dittmar thought that Port had only played 1 final since the AFL sides entered

Yep, and on the fixture, it said there's likely to be three byes next year instead of five. [cue Vale Park].

That was Riccuito mate. He thought they had only won one.

They gave him a fair hearing at least had the discussion. Roo was the same as always been biased towards his crows but the callers made it clear.

They both even conceded the negativity towards the setup but still seemed dumb founded where Warrens article came from and the feeling in general.

[Wedgie]

Every caller into MMM against the AFL being in the SANFL. Even Roo conceded an alternative has to be looked at and seemed genuinely surprised. His only argument for the Crows was that people only started whinging after the result on the weekend. Perhaps he needs to look at this thread!
Well done Triple M callers.

Im not sure Roo knows how to use this internet thing let alone a computer lol.

God help them if Bohdan was presenting. Apparently all attendees were given a $5 pokie voucher for Grand North which expired a six months before the meeting was held, and a free meal at the renovated grandstand gymnasium when it's eventually converted to a restaurant in 2078.

The SANFL PR are in full swing this morning. Jake Parkinson is currently on FIVEaa and of course Penbo and Goodings are nothing but yes men for the Crows. Trying to justify how increased TV audiences are more beneficial than actual crowd numbers. Wankers the lot of them.
