Box seat yes. Still think you are very very wrong though.I just love the way I can create this defence of him by so many posters yet an unbiased opinion would be it was a bust pick.
Its almost like an experiment for me, social media is a weird thing

Going to enjoy reminding you of it through the years

Maybe the AFL need to fund it better.
The AFL commission has offered to completely fund the comp, but they wanted to it to run independently, like the TAC comp for under 16 and under 18. I heard WA is heading down that path.
I have seen a plan involving 4 inner city teams and 4 outer city teams, giving country players a better chance.
There also the SANFL cap, which the AFL commission want a standard second tier cap across all comp
The AFL commision have not, I personally spoke with Chris Davies before he moved to Port about this
I have read nowhere that they plan on funding unless you can provide a link with a statement not some journo's opinion
How short memories are, remember the big stink over the SANFL cap and the AFL then refusing to increase funding if the SANFL spent it on salary Caps.
As for the Under 18 yes the Commission did discuss it and I can tell Chris Davies would have been part of the first conversation. as at the time he was at the Eagles.
Since then AFL decided to sit back and wait for the implosion which is quietly happening. Football Park has only slowed down the financial issues
Also not a journo opinion. As I have said I saw a Draft Document about a revamp under 16/18 comp fully involving the country areas. Not the current set up which basically supports the suburban clubs. and selected ones at that.
Thats funny how we all speak to people or see documents but none of this has quotes from the people who matter most
It is totally clear the AFL arent a bottomless pit of money with over half the clubs struggling financially , Im sure the AFL commissioners will be looking over their shoulders and to ensure they get elected by the clubs again they may actual put a little more coin their way instead on wasting it elsewhere
They clearly love the fact they dont contribute to SA or WA like it is required in the NEAFL and if they did the clubs would be even more in strife
You are just spinning as you can say I am saying as neither of us have proof
But then again I wasnt the one that came and quoted it initially as factual
I'm sure the AFL, a Victorian based business will have WA and SA football and it's history in the forefront of their concerns..........rolls eyes.The AFL commission has offered to completely fund the comp, but they wanted to it to run independently, like the TAC comp for under 16 and under 18.

I don't know 1 way or the other what the right outcome is. It does seem to me, and quite a few other posting, that there is a diminishing number of young players emerging and being picked up in the top 25-30 at the draft. WA also seems to be having a similar problem. Any thoughts or ideas?I'm sure the AFL, a Victorian based business will have WA and SA football and it's history in the forefront of their concerns..........rolls eyes.
We've already seen it in the NEAFL of them mercilessly axing clubs that don't suit their own agendas. If anyone thinks that this will be in the best interests of SA footy they're having a lend of themselves.
Hi guys, well done on Mitch Grigg winning the Margerey Medal.
What stopped him from taking the step into the big league ?
Worth another shot?

What are the interests of SA footy?
The under 18 comp is struggling to out perform the eastern academies. This is a state that has a rich history and should be contributing far more than it does. The quality seems to have dropped off. This doesn't bother you?
350 isn't many out of all the footballers in South Australia eitherNot worrying too much about 15 players out of their squads of 350, doesnt really warrant putting all your time if any into 4% of your players in that year level
OK - so you are saying there is a disconnect between AFL and the SANFL clubs in regard to youth development? And the SANFL clubs first concern is the development of players for their own future? If that is what is happening it kind of makes sense.Remeber its about football as a sport not about the elite path for the SANFL
There are 10 SANFL clubs with squads of around 35, so 350 players and you are worried about 15 players getting drafted thats only 4% of the actual players
No wonder the SANFL arent overly concerned
The VFL is a diabolical league with clubs failing all over the place. The SANFL is far better run competition. The sooner a WA and SA common vision and structure the better is a more effective model.

thank you you have hit the nail on the headNot worrying too much about 15 players out of their squads of 350, doesnt really warrant putting all your time if any into 4% of your players in that year level
