This coming from the "Brown paper bag" kings. Give me a break.
Do you think with all this crap flying around about the premier "Eagles" and all their recruits and their salary cap, that the SANFL would not be closely watching and scrutinising their situation. The Eagles would be foolish to do anything underhanded.

From what I've heard the eagles have had to refer players keen on playing in the SANFL to other clubs. Says a lot about how the club is operating and the current coach

Mr Fuller wrote:Great sign if true. Feels like Sheedy brought a great culture to the club. As a coach he is young enough to relate to a lot of players in their 20s but commands respect due to his accomplishments in the SANFL as a player for Sturt. Definitely don't understate the appeal of a good coach in the calculations of potential recruits looking for an opportunity to impress with a view to getting into the AFL - even if that means playing for our club on less money.
This seems like the only way we would land Knights because there will certainly be bigger offers coming his way.

Reports I’ve seen Chris Davies is saying they want the magpies to win the flag and the SANFL is putting to many restrictions on them and may go to another league if the restrictions aren’t changed . Surely Port can’t go to that extended VFL on the east coast cost them to much money
Hope the SANFL calls their bluff.
The two AFL sides must never be allowed to win the flag, if they don’t like it hit the road

Its not just the threat of them winning a flag, when their squad is injury hit they then sit down the bottom of the SANFL ladder and get belted, thats no good for the comp either.

Wouldn’t bother me if they both got beat by 20 goals each week.

2 sides getting smashed is no good for the comp either, their performance from week to week is essentially linked to their AFL injury list, a lot of luck if you get to play them strong or weak.

Weak or strong they dont bring may supporters to the games . If they are top do seriously think more would go ?
