I urge anyone moderately interested in the history of the SANFL to purchase a copy of this book.

Anybody who doesn't buy this book hates football - that's a fact.

Excellent news.
I can now update my Platts' & Jars' SA Footy Year Book that came out for the 2000 season

Great news for sanfl footy fanatics. Finally another book to be released with an up to date history of our great comp. I'd urge all sanfl footy fans to get a copy. I know I'll be in line to get a copy.

By Sunday Morning it'll be out of date by 4 games.
I'm still getting one.

Best publication of its type since the Football Times yearbooks of the 1980's.
Well done Phil Herdon and contributors!!

Got my hands on a copy last night thanks to Phil kindly dropping one over on the way home from the Media Lunch (which I sadly couldn't make due to Mrs being interstate and having a crook knee).
Great publication, absolutely jam packed with great articles and great stats, a must have for any footy fan.
Also, I'm sure safooty.net users will get a real kick out of page 132, check it out and enjoy!

Make sure you get your hands on a copy!

I rang Port this morning to check if they had them as I was down that way, as yet they haven't received their copies but hope to have them next week. I'll pick one up at the ground on Friday night.

How many copies were printed?

I finished reading all the articles today, really enjoyed them, its great to sit down and read so many articles in a row all on the SANFL!
I couldn't have picked a better day to be home looking after a cactus knee.
Stats day tomorrow.
Great stuff so far, realy enjoying it, I like the supporters stories, the South stories were great, almost brought a tear to my eye! almost!;)

2000

Got mine in the post last night. Was up until midnight leafing through it. Can be summed up in one word: DEFINITIVE. The articles are all a good read. The stats are concise; all the useful stuff is there, even one or two things which didn't make Hayman's complete record book a couple of years ago. At $20 it is a complete steal. Special mention to Phil H's article on the relevance of SANFL in this era - you pressed all the right buttons there mate, good work.

Does it include past amtch scores, and if so, are attendance figures included?

How many will be at the grounds? I want to get one from Prospect tomorrow - though if I don't get there on time - I don't want to leave without one!

Where can I get one in the city ? Like, today ?!
