Toby Pink was Huge, easily BOG


Allan’s last quarter really good and Horsnell with great poise in the second half also a stand out.

A lot to work on, but we get another crack next week.

Only second game I have been to all year due to Local club commitments, but gee the standard was poor.

The D2 Second Semi Final in the Adelaide Footy League at the Bay yesterday was a higher standard.

Skill level by both sides was deplorable. Will need to improve 150% if we are to finish higher than 4th.

SANFL really needs to think about home finals in the first two weeks. Atmosphere is not great in a 90% empty stadium that size.

Home Finals have a lot more atmosphere and would probably be better attended.

When the Adelaide Footy League went to home finals in 2004. Attendances for finals improved 100% and money going back into local clubs.

Really needs to be considered. The WAFL went that way a few years ago and their finals attendances improved.

Never fear, the Grog Squad will bring some atmosphere next week, if we don't get kicked out.

Imagine the Crowd at the Bay for 2.15 start on a Sunday afternoon between these two well supported clubs.
Atmosphere would have been off the hook for a sudden death final.

Trying not to blow my own horn but what the hell I was the one who came up with the proposal for home finals in the SAAFL back in 2004 when a member of the league executive.

Best thing I ever did on the Executive along with retrospective medals for players who lost on a count back in other grades besides A1

I wouldn't back home finals.

But finals at a neutral suburban ground, perhaps.

Just as long as we don;t have to trek out to Lizzy. Or Noarlunga, as much as I love the place.

Well done to Glenelg on the win; there may be a bit of life left in the Old Tiger yet.
