Booney wrote:In a statement, the SANFL said Port Adelaide still had a contract until 2028 and nothing had changed from the league’s perspective.
“The last discussion we had with the AFL mid year was that an AFL Reserves competition was not a priority,” it said.
“We review the licence conditions that apply to the AFL clubs playing in the SANFL on an annual basis to provide all clubs with an opportunity to be competitive.
“The SANFL competition is considered the best outside of the AFL, and as a League we will continue to balance what’s best for football in South Australia.”

Iirc eagles got ports zone and lost old west Torrens areas where I grew up was Torrens now west
So in theory it sounds ok but in reality port are in the afl

Yeah I understand it’d require a lot of work re: recruiting zones but it’s not impossible.
We want the best outcome here and not the easiest!

Would love to see it too, sucks seeing Districts lads playing at the Eagles. Ain't happening though, simply couldn't afford it, plus the other clubs would demand a move to Ethelton oval again.

I guess you do and port fans who don’t attend many games away from Alberton oval gosh Woodville oval is to far for the faithful to travel to
I think it’s time to move on accept that Port sold itself to the AFL and everyone moves on
