[Enviable Tradition]

is my tv broken or is Glenelg guernsey made by Reebok? Black looks brown

Definitely looks like a Hawthorn away strip.

Haha Norwood. How many years do we need to be handcuffed for you guys to catch up to our premierships? Even then they still can’t do it.

 

[JimmyBC]

I'm amazed there's even such a thing as SANFL cheer squads any more jeezus they'd all be spare ones a wedding no doubt.

 

[Grave Danger]

Sturt out in straight sets and minor premiers Nord lose Granny to 4th - suck on that, Penbo and Rowe.

 

[Capital Power]

It looks like a bigger crowd than some NRL games.

Fun fact: Henson used to be a NSWRL (pre-NRL) ground, home of the Newtown Jets. Have been there myself. Doesn't look up have changed. Not sure if it's still used for rugby league as well.

Was there a final on today?

 

[Festerz]

Was there a final on today?

Yep. And a pretty big crowd too - 35k for what ended up being a pretty entertaining game.

All those crow fans running back to support the clubs they ditched for their new lovers at West Lakes. I still can't get how you can change loyalties in a heartbeat like that. Utter hypocrisy in my view.

Oh and the hero of Glenelg was Liam McBean who kicked 7 goals. Spent 4 years on the Richmond AFL list for just 5 AFL games before being delisted but now 30 years old he's found his level at SANFL.

No AFL in SANFL - just remember that.

 

[JimmyBC]

The Glenelg player whoever he was saying McBean is a different person to what he was when he first arrived "he trains as hard as anyone now" probably explains why his AFL aspirations went to fertiliser. Pity he's over the hill.

I’ve seen much bigger 27,000 crowds at a Port game

SANFL is basically what the SAFA was in the old days.
It bears no resemblance to what it used to be.
Premiership’s now are like parkland flags.

The top part of Riverbank wasn't opened (maybe other stands top tiers too), so the rest of the ground looked quite full.

 

[Windy Cindy]

I wonder if David King still thinks Brisbane would prefer Chris Scott coaching them ?

I’m looking fwd to king ripping into Kenny average.. he’s our only hope

They did open the top stands on the Eastern side,

Were expecting a 15,000 crowd.

Felt like watching Birdwood vs Gumeracha on TV even with '35k' apparently there.

Just watching the WAFL GF
O’Driscoll for Peel having a good game. 23 touches and just kicked a lovely goal from the boundary line from 50.
Has been linked to Port, looks rough and tough sort.

 

[Grave Danger]

I was wrong - the AFLPA president is free for R1 2025...

MATCH REVIEW: Dangerfield in the clear, Lions forward fined

Yeah looks like Freo offered a 2 year deal.
Pity as he looks ok and is only 22.
