Port on Friday Night 22nd March. We got next weekend off for both A's and B'sPort on Friday night.
His pre season has been interrupted. Do you think he can improve on last night?Mackay was dreadful last night. Wow. Has he given up? I counted at least 5 turnovers by foot, mainly all dinky 25m kicks in the defensive fifty.
Is that because of AFLPA requirements?Port on Friday Night 22nd March. We got next weekend off for both A's and B's
Probably since Crows and Port are the only teams not playing.Is that because of AFLPA requirements?
So the SANFL have caved to that one?Yes, they have a mandatory break between now and round 1
I guess my point is that the AFLPA influence the SANFL.So the SANFL have caved to that one?
Let’s hope he’s already played his last game for the AFL side and he’s got nuthin but sanfl fixtures to look forward to.. he’ll go alright in the sanfl.. and I also reacon Douglas won’t be too far behind him..His pre season has been interrupted. Do you think he can improve on last night?
I'm not trying to be a knob but they are also SANFL listed players........or have I got that wrong?Well they have no choice. We can't play AFL listed players next weekend

We’ve got far too much young talent coming through to be letting Mackay cruise back into his old spot.
Not for the Crows.Is there a Sanfl trial tonight?
Would that be due to the players association demanding 4 days off?Not for the Crows.

Not really impressed with Butts, but it was one game. Hamill had some nice defensive moments, but he's still really slightly built. All 3 of Butts, Hamill and Scholl look like they'll need a year or two in the SANFL. McHenry was very impressive, defensive intensity is top notch and disposal was quality, hit a few 30m kicks to the open man where he kicked it far enough ahead the running player didn't have to break stride to catch it perfectly on the chest. Stengle was really great up forward too.Thanks for report those that saw SANFL game .
I was just wondering how Hamill , Butt etc of first year players went.
Absolutely it would be.Would that be due to the players association demanding 4 days off?
Personally thought Butts did a few good things in the U23 game. Didn't see the SANFL trial game. He's a young fella taken as a rookie, lets give him some loveNot really impressed with Butts, but it was one game. Hamill had some nice defensive moments, but he's still really slightly built.

After 200 games, being dropped to the reserves and not having your spot guaranteed would be a kick in the guts.
He will be a handy addition for the SANFL lads though, I suspect he hasn't played much of the internal trials so he would be rusty.
The style of game is different, very contested.Not really, like Thommo, he signed an extension and would have been told that he’s no longer considered best 22. Choose to sign, choose to play SANFL. Fact is that he’s never been all that great at that level the few he’s played after being dropped. But, outside of inside mids, not many seem to dominate. Smithers did I think, but he’s a whole different level to Mackay as is Doedee. But outside of the years that we had CEY, Lyons, Wigg and Grigg amassing 30+ every week, the 2’s doesn’t seem an easy place to ply a trade.
So the SANFL have caved to that one?
