2nds Glenelg vs Port Adelaide - Round 1 @ Glenelg

[Gravel]

That stupid last touch rule has killed us today. Too many times we don't get a hand on the ball a it heads out.

Yes, I wonder if there are any Soccer competitions around the world that use different rules to the World Cup/Premier League?
I still maintain the biggest problem with SANFL umpires is the State Umpiring Manager, Shane Harris. He has been in the role since 1996 and I believe he instructs the SANFL umps to umpire to his interpretations and not how the rest of the Footy world interpret.
Frees 26-13 at 3 quarter time. BS SANFL

We're playing to develop and not to win, but I still believe that playing to win is a better form of development.

Clurey on a wing has looked just as ridiculous as it seemed when suggested. Put him at CHB, let the kids play around him. Don't leave Walsh and Marshall as the key backs, they're 19, playing on the SANFLs best forwards. It's just shit house player management.

I thought we'd be a bit more competitive than this, but we're a mile off.

Yep. Infuriating.

 

[Coobk001]

The good story today, is that some time out of football seems to have helped Georgiadies get his goal kicking right. He looks like the kid who first came on the scene again and not the guy who couldn't hit the side of a barn when he injured himself.

 

[RossFC]

Lol Hartlett STILL has Logan Evans on Hosie. He’s not even watching the bloody game.

 

[davesnothere]

Where's Georgie?

QF 889 to Perth leaves at 7.20

 

[Ford Fairlane]

QF 889 to Perth leaves at 7.20

We traded him to the crows?

Anyway he is back on the ground.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Hurry up AFL reserves comp.
Sick of this league with it’s ridiculously restrictive rules.

Hartlett is our SANFL coach?

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Nasty does some nice cutting runs through the corridor.

A weekend on the yacht was my thought.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Sutcliffe was a better mid-season pick up than Narkle.

Discuss.

" rant from my old man today.

When do we get an AFL reserves?

 

[Jonts]

Sinn over Burgoyne 4 mine

 

[Portmagpies36]

How excited are the commentators when Glenelg kick a goal

They are as clueless as the SANFL supporters, they think beating Port Adelaide is still a major achievement in this manufactured league.

 

[Cosmicwinduptoy24]

Draftees all done some nice things.

Sinn moving freely and looks a different player from last 2 seasons.

Probably about it as far as positives go.

 

[RossFC]

Scully snaps a goal from 30m, he’s got 2

Down 128 to 72 13mins into the last

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Montgomery is a loss, he was a good medium defender.

100%, been in that role for 28 years, 28 ****ing years the guy is a ****ing dinosaur

Lorenz cramping

Charleson with a Nick Daicos

 

[RossFC]

Kyle Marshall can’t run, looks absolutely cooked

 

[philthy05]

Jesus does Marshall have any hamstrings at all or just decided he doesn’t want to run.


Was running like he had his pants around his ankles then

 

[Portmagpies36]

Some of the AFL listed players shield be getting a massive spray after this. Regardless of the sup standard top ups and ridiculously lop sided free kicks some of our AFL listed players should be clear stand outs at this level and they simply aren’t.

The amount of time AFL listed players in the SANFL play like dogshit and before you know it they are promoted!

What are we developing? A losing culture that’s what we are developing.
