Training 18th December?

[4blues]

Morning everyone No, i unfortunately didn't go to training yesterday, it was too rushed. If anyone has ever been late for a jetstar/qantas flight, and consequently missed it, you'll know why i was paranoid

Robbie Williams was good though

Robbie was brilliant.

so why does the SANFL tean usually beat the VFL team when they play each other?:

Because I don't think VFL players affiliated to an AFL club are eligible to participate. The Victorian side is made up with players signed with genuine VFL clubs only.

That's the same for every state. Next.

Its not the same for every state Douglas, VFL teams have 10+ AFL listed players every game.
SANFL and WAFL teams never have that.

Thats usually 10 of the better players in each side, not playing in that rep side against the SANFL.

When do SANFL and VFL teams play each other?

ummmm every 2nd year

 

[Thunderstruck]

AFL players do not represent the SANFL either.

At the end of the day the SANFL is a higher rated competition, pretty much every VFL recruit who comes over to play in the SANFL says that the standard is the SAME but it is more PHYSICAL. Bigger bodies.

Just because the VFL has more AFL listed players running around, doesn't mean it is any better. Most of the AFL listed players in the SANFL aren't the better players, they are the mature aged SANFL players who have never had a real crack at AFL. They constantly outperform the AFL listed ones, apart from the stronger AFL players who come back through injury at the lower level.

They also play every 3rd year. In 2007, the VFL will play the WAFL while the SANFL have a rest year. VFL play SANFL in 2008 in Adelaide.
