I like to hang shit on the SANFL die hards myself, but c'mon. Port and Crows should be playing off in the GF every year.
And?

that's kind of my point.

Port are playing in the AFL. We've moved on to such a degree that our second team is now playing in Grand Finals in the $ANFL against out former rivals.

It's sad of any supporter of that pathetic competition to be trying to be critical of AFL clubs. It would be like me having pot shots at the way Goodwood Saints are being run as a Mitchell Park member.


You do understand that that second team is not made up of part time footballers on $20k a year to play football right?

I think it's sad that you show such a lack of respect and appreciation for a competition that has been the pinnacle of South Australian football for 140 years.

A competition that's produced so many memories and champions.

A pathetic competition would be Division 7 SAAFL - not the SANFL.

You're fooling some on here, but not all.
This line of argument always cracks me up. It reminds me of an old man not wanting to use an ATM because he doesn't trust it!

If you think you cant tell what the demographics are of a segment of the community without actually being there to literally look at them... then to be honest and this is harsh - you're fundamentally ignorant.

For example, I can tell you the average Sturt supporter age is 54. Do you think I went to every Sturt game and asked every Sturt supporter what their age was?

Nah **** em, they've tried to knife Port at every opportunity. They can get ******. If it was up to them I can categorically tell you Port Adelaide would not exist as we know it. Guaranteed.

And I meant pathetic with their attitude and thinking as much as the standard. But that's pretty poor these days too if Port Adelaide's Reserves can make the Grand Final, How sad. How very sad.

I used to go to SANFL games almost every week as a kid. I can recall Round 1 blockbusters at footy park with Port/Glenelg, I can recall sitting on my uncles shoulders at the Parade to try and gain a glimpse of the game it was so crowded.

I aspired to play SANFL - they were the heroes of the day.. even if AFL was around at that time.

I remember local footy clubs used to sell SANFL Guernseys and merchandise.

SANFL was a big deal, not just for drunk, sad, bitter old men.

They were good days.

Try integrating with an API using a published web service and using a series of SQL packages to restructure the data into a relational system. Then perhaps implement a segmentation tool, or a BI platform, to slice and split the data to mine.

By using data smart people can work out a heck of a lot very quickly.

Every time you run Facebook, that data gets put into a database. You liked the Sturt Club page? That's in a database. You made a status about going to the SANFL? That's in a database. You used your phone to navigate to an SANFL game? That's in a database. You used your credit card to buy tickets? That's in a database.

I don't mean to be rude and with as much respect as possible, Spargo, MW, Booney and other safooty.net posters, you've got no idea WTF you're talking about if you think you need to attend a game to work out the demographics of a supporter group. It's an incredibly stupid thing to say, in reality.

Look, I really don't care what previous posters I remind you of, I don't know who they are, so it's a moot thing to comment on.

get f..ked mate. I don't care how you describe the demographic of a supporter base. My beef is how you describe Ports "reserves" side like it should be some sort of easy beat.

They were good days.

And they're dead, because of the myopic and bitter administration and their supporters. Many of whom frequent this forum.

Hence why I agree, it is sad. Very sad.
