West End State Squad

The SANFL is pleased to announce the following players have been selected in the 2008 West End South Australia State Squad, for the State League clash against Victoria at Adelaide Oval on Saturday 31 May 2008.

State Coach Darel Hart said "The squad is a great blend of youth and experience, and all the players selected have been in fantastic form for their clubs. Last time the two states played it was a very high standard game and there's no reason to think differently this year with the quality of players that have been selected."

The first training session will be at 6.00 pm on Wednesday 7 May at AAMI Stadium.

Can someone count the South Australians out of the 29 named?
I know both of North's representives are Victorians.
If it was State of Origin we'd be screwed. :oops:

Hmm interesting to see how the Vic's react if Alleway gets a game? The last time SA played Vic Alleway was their CHF and Capt!

How the hell isn't Brett Zorzi in the squad at the VERY least? Oh well, looks like another weekend of no footy for me.
