If it does I reckon Adam Gourley’s record of a dozen pies would still stand at Ethelton.

I tried to go head to head with him one year but he was in another league.........

Gooo was Australia''s Joey Chestnut. Loved a feed and a beer.
Did well with the women too for a big fella especially on footy trips when the ''standards book''' got left at home. I remember one trip when we called in to Whyalla for a piss stop/quick beer at the pub on the main corner and he picked up in 10 mins :shock: . Gooo didnt die wondering :lol:

At this stage the SANFL have avoided it but how long before a national u18’s comp is in place?
The TAC Cup is set to be extended next year with 6 new teams joining.
Brisbane Lions, GC Suns, Swans, GWS, Tassie Mariners and NT will all field sides in the comp next year

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.

That would take it to 18 teams, surely 2 divisions.
If that was to happen, SA would have to field 2 teams otherwise they would be too strong with just one. That would have far greater impact on the SANFL clubs than 40 AFL listed kids and hacks playing against them each week

Another scoreboard disaster for Power reserves reserves against the Roosters today.
However,
they did manage to double their match scoring shots since from their last meeting from 2 to 4!

It was their last ever game, n'est-ce pas? Not exactly an inauspicious exit.

One down, two to go.
