Free admission and a free beer suggestion including a micky mouse state game (VFL is not a state team) and a bye= equals a wasted Saturday
during the footy season.
What a yawn,expect less that a 1000 with a dream of freebees.
Who cares who wins,a meaningless contest,who won 2 years ago,
does anyone really remember?

No freebees just a dream,but only a good suggestion to boost a crowd.
Full credit to all the players who will be selected to play in the game.

Do the players get paid for playing in a state game or are they expected to play for pride and prestige..
If so who pays them, their clubs or the SANFL?

SA at Port Melbourne wasn't it? Wundke kicked a bag from memory. Good game.

Just had a chat to a State selector about the state side. I asked him about the inclusion of Luke Carey. He said it's good for morale to have someone from every club in the squad. My reply "they're not a f**king club, they're a reserves side". He didn't disagree. I told him it was an insult to every other SANFL player to include a guy who obviously didn't want to put in hard yards at an SANFL club and is gifted games at this level by playing with a reserves side. Again he didn't disagree.

Yep, beat VFL at Port Melbourne.

Quite a good contest

Beating VFL in Victoria always good.

Had a fantastic weekend doing the road trip with the Life FM boys.

As we did last year going to Perth for the WAFL game, actually not as good because we lost.

I'm not so sure. It could be a sting.

Agree. Bring back the West End All-Stars if you want to pick the league's best players. ;)

I used to love the state game. it was always great to see the best of the SANFL v the VFL or the WAFL. But alas times are gone and while the players may still feel and share the pride of representing the SANFL, I feel it has become meaningless.

Disappointing I guess.
