Old Iggies are just a tenant of the new Karen Rolton Oval. It's a full SACA Complex now (noting the back ovals have been SACA managed for years) and as of this summer will effectively become the new Adelaide No. 2. There's already been a Futures Game played on it and it will become the main venue for all State Women's Cricket. Not even sure if Iggies could even host their own home finals due to SACA wanting to get it ready for cricket come September. It's one of the things that annoys about SA and Adelaide. It is a magnificent complex and the surrounding landscaping when finished will make it a picturesque Cricket venue despite almost being in the heart of the city. Yet there is very little publicity about the work that has been done and the investment made by Govt, Council and Cricket. Many South Australians wouldn't even know what changes have been made to the old Railways Oval.

One bloke just signed by a non-AdFL club has his name and photo up in lights despite his new club being his 4th in 4 years. And they went as far to say he has signed for 2019 and beyond. Interesting to see what beyond looks like in 12 months from now suckers. Don't get me wrong, a bit of love for players heading back to their grassroots club from the SANFL or AFL is OK but give me a spell with some of the other crud being posted. Anyway, that's my rant.

Couldn't agree more.
Also find photos of blokes with a pen and paper and club's announced that they've been signed incredibly cringey.
I also find particularly odd the announcement of "re-signings". You'd hope that would be the norm rather than an exception worth broadcasting.

This 100%. If you are going to announce "re-signings" then you should be announcing your whole playing list from last season.
I don't mind clubs announcing new signings, not that I follow any other club's fb page. We do it for each new player to welcome them to the club and to give their mates a chance to throw some banter at them.

It sure is ...... pretty sure everyone else is staying on and they will be looking to find a couple of quality players to replace the boys who have left or retired.

The single most unprofessional "media" outlet in the state.
Lame screenshots of announcements taken from club pages.
Claims that clubs are flocking to give them their updates.
Engage in really ordinary banter.
Take cheap shots at random people or organisations.
