Another beauty from those in charge of our favourite grassroots football clubs found in a Rucci article just posted.

http://mobile.news.com.au/sport/afl...chelangelo-rucci/story-fndv7pj3-1226991281495

As one SANFL club leader told The Advertiser the financial crisis in the State league can be traced to “propping up the Power (with $16.25 million) and supporting the Crows and Footy Park ($2 million a year)”.


Big bad blood suckings Poort Powaz ruined it again etc.

Just a question, why dose the SANFL run the development of football in this state?

The money can only come from to sources and their is no gain in it for them as there is in states like NSW where academy's are run with a prize at the end.

There is no benefit for the two AFL clubs to prop up development of football in this stat either than to feed the draft .

The SANFL is just another level of bureaucratic bull that sucks the life out of this state.

Yeah was thinking that as I was reading the article in the Messenger from that SANFL loving reporter banging on about how great the state development is in winning both the national Under 18 and 16's and how many AFL draftees are coming out of SA. That's all well and good but the 2 AFL clubs are the ones solely paying for that development, yet 18 clubs benefit from it. Compare this to the TAC Cup which is payed for entirely from the AFL meaning that the costs are from the AFL pool of cash not just from 2 specific clubs. So basically every South Australian recruited by any of the 16 other clubs, Port/Crows have effectively paid for their development and seen nothing in return. It is a breathtakingly stupid set up that hobbles our 2 teams just so the SANFL can sit in their ivory towers, say that they run the show and bask in the glories of junior state sides winning stuff and running the self described second best Footy comp in the Universe.

The SANFL should be separated from development. Have a body over them that is responsible for SA football. The AFL clubs can pay their pound of flesh to them for development, but none of that goes to the SANFL to pay players from interstate too much money to have the 'second best competition in Australia'. The shits from North and their ilk can then manage their own costs without the convenient excuse of THEM propping up US :confused:

I would like to know where the B**H** are the replays of both Under 18 & 16 Finals.
Would like to see our Port Players.

Partially right. Melbourne are 1 from 1 at the totally revamped Adelaide Oval. Although I never heard of the facilities affecting a teams performance.

Unless it was the cold showers at Victoria Park.

Nah. That's like saying results at the MCG only count since the Olympic Stand was built.
They can't hitch a ride on the back of Adelaide Oval's rich history on the one hand and ignore it on the other. By any measure Melbourne is 1-1 at Adelaide Oval.
 
stuff 5cc... biggest bunch of flogs questioning the timing of Dom's decision.

If his body is gone, it's gone.

Shame on them, Shame
