2nds The SANFL Thread

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

. Not sure how much more he can do.

Clean sandos boots

Please no, his kicking is awful, turnover king and that's without all his other issues.

Wouldn't be against him considering he came for free. In 2010 when he started to look quite good off half back he had the most (or right up there) distance made/kicked out of any player in the comp for memory (or it may have been from rounds 13-22).

Seemed like one of those players that had a bit of talent but didn't really care, being delisted might have given him the wake up call he needed. I wouldn't be against us putting him on the rookie list if we did.

Not much help being able to kick it a long way or take a couple of bounces if you can't hit the side of a barn from 30 metres when you release the pill, fair dinkum he is an absolute spud when it comes to hitting a target!! Absolute TURNOVER MERCHANT. Why do you think the Hawks, Swans and Cats are so good??? Because they have players with elite kicks that CAN hit up a target!!

West lost to South. WTF FML

Does Johncock's retirement open up a spot for Kyle Hartigan to be upgraded too?

Does Johncock's retirement open up a spot for Kyle Hartigan to be upgraded too?

I think he already could be upgraded, pre Johncock retirement. Was a spot open due to it being past halfway point in season. Hasn't been upgraded as there hasn't been a spot for him to fill in the best-22.

I don't believe a retirement opens a new rookie elevation spot, no.

So South Australia won its first ever under 18 championship today with their win over Western Australia....

AFL website's main article is about a top 5 prospect kicking 3 goals for Vic Country over Vic Metro - SA's championship relegated to a footnote below it

Too bad we have little chance picking up any of the SA guns from the squad with our draft picks though -

Didn't he retire because of his body, that's a long term injury if ever I've herd of one

If we place him on the LTI list then yes, but I don't think we have.

Anyone able to give me some info on how Atkins is going? Really wanted us to draft him last year. Was one of my favorites.

Dominating SANFL reserves but struggling to hold a spot in Sturt's League side. Is probably travelling at about where we'd expected him to be. Hopefully with another preseason can start putting in some dominant SANFL performances.

Thanks for that. Hopefully he can hold his place and play some AFL next year.

 

[hugecannon]

Lewis Johnston is making is comeback on Sunday after his serious knee injury, hopefully he can put in a couple of strong performances and get a few games at AFL level before the end of the season.

 

[Elder van Berlo]

Yep, looks all class when he gets it at SANFL level but doesn't have the tank to find enough footy to be a consistent factor. Usually gets 10-15 pretty impressive touches when he is in the league side.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Spin off benefit of Riley playing for the Crows is that Atkins should see more league time

 

[BigLefty]

So who you got in the "Bend Over the SANFL again yet left out for Mackay" cup tonight? it's awarded to the young SANFL player that constant I often call it the BOTSAYLOFM Cup.......

I got Grigg to just shade Lyons. He's off to a solid start too with 4 touches in the first 8 minutes.

 

[Elite Crow]

Lyons 8 possessions and 4 clearances and its not even qtr time yet, plus Glenelg is getting flogged. It's a joke he's not playing.

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

Why isn't Sam Shaw playing?

The SANFL app doesn't list him?

Hes got the flu

 

[Elite Crow]

Hes got the flu

FFS, a bye and now the flu when we need him to have game time

 

[Tex200]

Lyons 8 possessions and 4 clearances and its not even qtr time yet, plus Glenelg is getting flogged. It's a joke he's not playing.

I think it's pretty safe to say there is no longer any correlation between his SANFL form and his AFL selection

 

[knobby]

he did play for Centrals ressies last week

 

[WAG]

I think it's pretty safe to say there is no longer any correlation between his SANFL form and his AFL selection

24 mins into the 2nd qtr:

Lyons: 14d 2m 1t 6cl 1i50
Grigg: 16d 2m 2i50 1g 2b


If only their training form was up to standard!
