Money.

I don't see how that effects their premiership chances in any way, but so be it.

My beloved Sturt ? Do tell.

No, knowing people at Norwood it is not the case.

I think players that do that haven't really got their heart in it . I reckon that has been proven over the years .

Missed my question too.

Didn't hamper Beard, Kirkwood, Martin, Riley or McMahon etc, or plenty of others from other premiers over the years.

Sorry, I thought "money" was an answer not a question, my bad.

Bayman , I reckon those odds look good for South. I think I may have written them off a bit early after a bit of homework. Eddy will hurt but that can be a work around.

Oh sorry . Are you saying they went for money ?

Highly doubt you know any Norwood people if thats the case. Sturt did themselves no favours in their pursuit of McKenzie.

Keep that ball bouncing ...

It's late and school's back, maybe let the adults talk for a while

You seem a bit bitter Scrunch. Wasn't it Norwood who breached the cap ? Wasn't it them that negotiated a way out of penalties with the introduction of the AFL teams ? But that was not my question. Questions have this next them ...? .

OK Scrunch. Nothing wrong with my posts , again.

Very adult like.

Eddy will be a loss no doubt but there is an even bigger loss that they've had over the summer, that being Brad Gotch, i have no doubt (in my mind) that he has been the best coach in the sanfl over the last few years

Its ok to debate Scrunch on this site. If you are going make comments then back up your comments without getting personal. That is what I get told so I hope you do to. If you are not mature and knowledgeable enough then dont post here.

Yes, Norwood guilty as charged for cap breaches, who doesn't know that? Do you offer this site anything? You bait and then throw your skirt over your head anytime you get called on it. Your cowardice doesn't effect me in the slightest, sorry you've wasted your time.

Yes Bayman Gotch will be a big loss. I do expect them to drop but maybe his legacy may hang around for a year. ?

just like Norwood time will tell.....i can't judge Norwood because i haven't seen the coach under league pressure yet but i can make an observation of G. Hocking & i'm of the opinion he's ordinary as a coach & i think that South will drop because of it

Have I misread Glenelg Bayman ? Lost a few

i'd have to check the names, off the top of my head & forgetting the retirements i'd say Pitt & Johansen would be losses

Maybe you two are underestimating Garry Hocking ?

We will see......

we will indeed, only saying my observations....i'll admit this much though, that is he'd have to improve on the experiences he's already had but he WILL NOT be in the Bradley Gotch class

Waddayamean, for the next 7 days, perhaps you could reflect on why you antagonise so many posters so often.

Perhaps you could spend the time on aggression control, or a course on civil discourse.

You have been previously suspended and warned numerous times.

While you spend the time feeling hard done by, perhaps be grateful it's only 7 days, not total.

not only have i had a decent crack, i looks like some have jumped on Norwood, unless its all Scrunches money however given i got my bet cut in half i doubt it is just one bet, here is the updated sportsbet odds, some other agencies have got a market up..............

Ha! No not my my money Bayman (although I had a tiny slice of it). Most of mine went on the Dogs.

From a punting perspective, since the AFL clubs have come in, I think the finals series' (thus far) have opened up a bit, to the point that whichever of the form teams is in the best health come finals time is every chance.

So my theory is to try and pick out a club or two at decent odds, and once they shorten you can lock in a profit.

I had identified West and Sturt over the last two years, but unfortunately didn't jump on them early enough.

To that end, I'd love to hear from North and West fans on what you think your chances are like this season.

Well I think it'd be pretty extraordinary to go from Premiers to wooden spooners two years in a row. West have a lot of unknowns at the moment, such as the fitness of recovering players, and the attitude/form of key players who had poor years last year. If it's all good news on those fronts we should be a pretty fair side. If it's all bad, we'll be nowhere.
