Seeing that Gather Round (Round 5) is on this week in Adelaide, what better time to acknowledge the history & traditions of SA football to select the best 23 players to come from that State-and whether they have played in the SANFL, Crows/Power in the AFL or represented their state in either interstate or State of Origin.
The criteria for selection to be picked in the all-time SA team is as follows:
-Must have played in the SANFL from 1970-90;
-Must have played for either the Adelaide Crows or Port Adelaide Power or to have been recruited to a VFL club (ie Carlton) from SA
-Must have represented South Australia in interstate/State of Origin football
-Must have won one or more Magarey Medals
The team itself should consist of the following:
-Starting 18
-4 interchange plus one as the sub (as per AFL rules);
-One coach (ie Fos Williams, Neil Kerley);
-One captain (ie Russell Ebert, Chris McDermott);
-One Umpire (ie Laurie Argent, Murray Ducker)
-One administrator (ie Max Basheer, Leigh Whicker)
