Bignell at it again

Quality work. Steven Marshall was seen at The Fringe last night singing along to Kylie Minogue songs, I'm guessing 'I should be so lucky' will be his walk on song if he gets up Saturday night.
Or perhaps a magnanimous rendition of "Better the Devil You Know" if it goes the ...

It's not politically incorrect, it's a fact. These gambling machines always do better in poorer areas.
Here are some figures from four years back (FY2009) regarding gaming revenues.

Thanks but per our CEO, Keith Thomas, I'll call the Magpies what the Port Adelaide Football Club officially calls them, "our SANFL side".

You can feel free to call them whatever floats your collective boats , most likely, " The Winners".
Sage advice from an old Port tug.

Maybe its a small vocal minority that are online . Not having a sledge at anyone and the silent majority aren't online !! No idea

Ah yes. The "silent majority". Blessed are the meek and all that.

It's worth noting that while Norwood only have eight of last year's premiership side playing - they do have only four debutants. Says much for their depth over the past couple of years.

Also says a lot about Bassett's ability to turn average footballers into excellent team contributors ...

i am actually enjoying it, but the first 5 pages cover the next 36.

Just download and repeatedly read the first five pages then. Same enjoyment for a fraction of the effort.

The thing is though, if port were also down the bottom there would be no whinging in this thread whatsoever. It would be "sucked in, this what you wanted." People worried about two (or three) sets of rules wouldn't say a word

Port supporters have consolidated the toy/cot part of your argument.

Interesting choice of illustration. So much for always being told that the white ...

Further, the views of all of the VFL General Managers at a meeting on the 13th of August when finals eligibility was discussed was also never considered and was dismissed as irrelevant. This was despite the fact that the rules relating to eligibility to play in finals would be strictly enforced and ...

An interesting premise in itself...

Yep, sick of being dictated to by the AFL and the two Reserve sides. Its bad enough our season was shortened and the GF moved dates. Its about time the SANFL stopped bowing down to them and make their own decisions. Play the game at the regular timeslot. As for the crowd, It wouldnt bother me if ...

Great news if true but I'll believe it when I see it.
1. Never trust the AFL clubs concerning the SANFL.
2. Never trust the word of anyone in a position of power regarding footy in SA.
3. Be wary of the AFL's thoughts on this.
I was told last year by a club official that it was very likely that ...

Obfuscating progaganda, at its finest.

For example, the very first point in the article:-

"Only once, in 2014, with the Port Adelaide Magpies, has an AFL reserves team reached the SANFL grand final. And lost — to Norwood."

....after not playing in a decider for 15 years ...

To distinguish the game of 'Australian Rules' from other codes who also went by the name 'football', if my understanding's correct.

Oi, you're getting in the way of some quality paternalistic tittering there sport. Knock it off.

Great job reserves teams!!!

Just a pity that the 'Dogs have chosen this year for their third finals miss in 26 years.

Happy that fellow no-voters South are among the finals mix, though. I hope they do well.

Lucky the inception of the reserves sides has led to such great success for the Crows and Port in the AFL, imagine how poorly they'd be performing under the "old" system.

Sanderson and Trigg had an agenda to blame not having a reserves side for their AFL failings, now they have been found out as ...
