Does Skippy really have to be in their Squad?

Does Skippy really have to be in their Squad?

Yes, this will bring in North fans, armed with whatever they can somehow sneak in through the gates.

[Hondo]

Does Skippy really have to be in their Squad?

Well, if we are happy to have all those Victorians I guess we have take it when it goes the other way

[NFC]

In reality, it makes the concept a bit of a farce does it not?

[bayman]

a couple of you blokes a calling it a farce, well look at it this way these players are representing the competition they play in & afterall it is the sanfl competition versus the vfl competition

[OCT]

Well said Bayman. Some don't understand that the game is between competitions , it's not State of origin. It has nothing do with where players come from its where they are playing.

[bayman]

from my memory 7 players on that list have played sanfl, 'mirrors' no doubt will get a 'pay out' from mt79 & i might even join in as well

well ill certainly be continuing my commentary to him as i did in at Sth Freo oval 4 yrs ago

i'll also be giving nick saunter 'hell' because everytime he was interviewed on the abc over the last couple of years he would end the interview with (paraphrasing) 'this (vfl) is clearly the best state league competition in australia' so i'll be asking him all sorts of ?'s

Firstly , who is he ? Secondly ( and this is serious) how desperate are they to be seen as the best state league. That reeks of players being influenced by someone of what to say. People reckon South Aussies are inferior !! I was 50/50 if going to the state game , but you just tipped me in favour Bayman.

[spell_check]

Exactly, bayman and OCT. This match is to showcase the strength of our league against another. This is how the State matches were before State of Origin.

OCT, nick saunter is a full forward so we'll be able to 'chat' to him over the fence

Prior to 1977 (Vic V WA) all state footy was played with players representing the league they played for, not their state of origin, it's hardly a new concept, it is one league vs another league.

[OCT]

Did he play SANFL ? Sounds like he may be a bit bitter for not making it .

No doubt you'll ask him the appropriate questions Bayman.

no doubt & some inappropriate ones as well & if he bites i might even ask him if it is true if he is ...................or ..................... or............................etc etc

I friggin understand it, and I loved it when Kenna kicked the clincher in the 2005 game. There was some real ironing in that...

Should be a cracking match though and there's probably more on the line than there would be if it was state of oregano... and probably more chance of us winning too...
