It's a real university. It was established in 2012.
 
Like Flinders Uni :D
Harsh. :)

Flinders at least have a decent campus.

I found this bit interesting and wonder if there are some opportunities for Ports to establish an exchange;

Borlase looked pretty down on himself when he got caught htb and the tackler kicked a goal near the end there. Never mind son, perhaps theadelaidefootballclub will write you off now.
Found this ...
Other clubs are able to bid for an academy player in the draft. The player's club has to match the bid with their own draft pick - at a 20 percent discount based on the points that are attached to every draft pick.
Wonder if Port will have a go at getting Borlase.

A thought just occurred to me. What if Frampton to Adelaide was the price for getting Borlase? I’d do it ten times out of ten.

Great thinking .. If Frampton goes to Adelaide we want Borlase .. That deal has to be done :thumbsu:
If we are sure Borlase jnr is a pretty good player.

Would try a 3 club deal to give away less than Billy for JBJ - maybe Sam Gray to a club for a 3rd rounder to Cows for not bidding on JBJ. Of course another club could still cut our lunch there anyway before our pick.

All academy players, of all the different academies, are up/open for bidding by other clubs in the national draft.

If they don't get drafted in that draft, then the academy club can pre list them ( think that's the correct phrase) as a Category B rookie, before the rookie draft.

Anyone who gets the SANFL Digital pass can watch all the under 16 and 18 games this year. Under 16s start tonight and I’m watching West Adelaide vs North Adelaide.

One of your NGA players Fraser Bone just took an absurd pack mark, recommend giving the game a watch if you have nothing better to do on a Friday night like I do haha
