Re: I HATE IT WHEN THE MEDIA GET IT WRONG...
I never read the article. I don't read anything in the Advertiser, but did Michelangelo Rucci say in an article about Michael Nunan that he played in 4 premierships for Sturt and coached two at North. My informants tell me that they forgot to mention his flag playing for Norwood. Not a huge deal but if so just another case of the media getting it wrong.

"Brad Crouch got 36 touches when the Crows state league side lost to Centrals today" (or very similar). One sentence, no further comment.
Thank God Channel 7 are doing it for SA Footy hey?
The league is better off without news coverage like this, and its not the first time it's happened. Just give us the final scores and move on if you can't say something objective about the result. Pro-Crows reporting belongs on the Crows Show.

Just looking at the state game lineup in the paper. They have SA kicking down and the Vics kicking up. FFS...

Looks like News Limited had a great weekend with North Adelaide........incorrect names printed in the match reports apparently North have a Luke Hender playing for them now?

"NORWOOD'S nightmare injury toll as become even uglier after the 59-point loss to Woodville-West Torrens at Woodville on Saturday".
Besides the word "as" incorrectly used instead of "has" his margin conflicts with the score next to article:
Eagles 16.13 109
Norwood 6.8 44
(65 points)
The Eagles goal kickers on the same page adds up to 12 goals even though the Eagles kicked 16.
Do they have an editor?(or at least someone that can add up?)

Both Crows and Power had big wins. I'm surprised that they even remembered there were any teams in the SANFL at all, especially since the mini paps and the ravens both lost.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail

The media don't care less about the SANFL any more, thus the crap presented in what is turning into an unreadable rag

Re: I HATE IT WHEN THE MEDIA GET IT WRONG...
What wonderful reporting of the SANFL in the so called newspaper today. 2 pages mostly about how the AFL preformed in the compromised comp.
Think it should be just disbanded and then the power and crows can play each other every week for their PRACTICE

Re: I HATE IT WHEN THE MEDIA GET IT WRONG...
Just a thought Mr Olsen, but if you want to take away a lot of negativity from the SANFL community all you need to do is take finals away from the afl clubs and give it exclusively to the true sanfl 8 who crave them and truly cherish the premiership cup!
Deep down sanfl fans can contemplate losing a grand final to another sanfl club but cannot support the idea of the Ravens or Power with our premiership cup is anything but a farce, worthy of a Royal commission.
It costs very little, restores some credibility, faces the truth that Ravens and Power only use our comp for practice, moves back to the diehard heartland
that's been isolated and slowly eroding away.
Would it not be a political manoeuvre worthy of North tce???
Win/win?

Re: I HATE IT WHEN THE MEDIA GET IT WRONG...
I don't agree with that.
To restore integrity would require the removal of the Reserves from the league altogether, not just for finals.

This week's budget had the head-to-head record between Bays and Norf as 122-94 Glenelg's way, with two draws.
Forever chasing us, Roosters!

That's cool, if they want to swap the head to head figure around they can also swap the Finals and Grand Finals figure around.
The only stadium that you guys had a winning record against us was Footy Park, thank Christ it's being demolished!

I didn't mention Prospect! Footy Park is/was
Anyway, by definition Prospect is. "A place or venue for (mostly) outdoor sports, concerts, or other events and consist of a field or stage either partly or completely surrounded by a tiered structure designed to allow spectators to stand or sit and view the event."
