Additional comments: That's way too many on the bench, reminds me of the good old u13s days when "everyone will get equal game time" even if they were spuds.

Who are the spuds here

All I'm saying is I'm not super convinced about these Reid fellas.

Are you serious?

They give a medal to who they think was best on. Think about it like a Norm Smith but way more important.

 

[philthy05]

Looking forward to it. Hope my 7month old lets me watch it lol.

This has a chance to be pretty close and it’s there for the academies taking if they want the win.

Our magpies side is terribly unbalanced with a tonne of young tall developing rucks and kfs, and all our good young mids bar sinn, whose coming back from the dreaded OP are already in the afl side so it’s not a very good midfield at all.

Also, our best young ruck who has dominated this level for years is sharing the ruck with 2 other guys now as the coaches want to see them so hes not in his best (and really only) position for the majority of the game.

And a lot of watchers outside of Sa may not know this, but port and crows are not allowed to fill out the rest of our reserves teams with sanfl level players, only amateurs bar the 1 “marquee” player (Sutcliffe for us)
