Why not men's? Also Ch44 streams on their website doesn't it? So interstaters can watch?

If only Scumthern fans weren't an embarrassment to their team, I’d almost have enjoyed watching them pump us.

Another lucky win for the tigers.
They are pretenders.
Haven't played anyone good yet.

It would suck going to a home game and being out numbered By the opposition fans

When each family had six kids with them of course we were going to be outnumbered by the Gold Crew or whatever shit you call pyourselves

Haha, not a southern fan but love the indignation by the self righteous eagles supporters.
Amazing how Southern pay big bucks to bring in star players and they win. Wonder if they had same budget as some others where they would finish. Recent memory before the cheque book came out they were down the bottom, funny about that.
League needs to have a proper salary cap and enforce it!

Not so sure about that - they have 2 imports, same as almost every other team & probably pay 2-3 of their clubs juniors who are now very good players (Brine, Johns etc). I'd say their spend is fairly typical around the league. It’s the ones like Norwood who poach Stanbridge for 10k that blow the budgets.

Rollout the balls, play Turnage and Mays for 35 mins and you have a title.

Yeah, they have 2 imports like most teams but they're on more money than everyone else. And I don't think brine was a club junior, was north I think.

The fact that you think Brine played juniors for north sheds a lot of light on how credible your info is on what Turnage and Mays get paid

Why would Turnage & Mays be on any more than others? North have two returning visa players. They would be on the most.

Brine started with Tigers and moved to North about U23's from memory. Seems he might be on about $1k a game from various sources. Norwood, Tigers and Forestville have biggest budgets

I'd put South in there too with what Al would be getting and a returning VISA player!

Brine played at tigers from u10 to u23's then played for North for 2 years before heading overseas on a scholarship

I believe that Southern Women's program has a bigger spend than many men's programs!!

Teys, Johnson and Doyle all play for the love of the game. And Tucker does it for the fans. All juniors of the club

Are south getting value for money with Al

523, hahahahaha

Southern Men will go undefeated and take it out and so they should given the money they are spending on the program.

How can they afford 36k to pay the imports plus Johns? Then they would be paying Brine, Ellison etc

Then they also have tp pay the Womens imports plus some players.

Who is there benefactor?

Hopefully the same happens as last year with a team like West upsetting them in the mens and all that money is wasted.

How is it that Southerns imports are allegedly so much more expensive than everyone else's??

Southern have had the advantage of playing their full team up till now, an advantage for sure. Other teams (e.g Sturt,West) will be adding pieces to the back half of the season as college returnees join. Take a look at the 75% mark of the season to get a true indication of who has what to work with. The top 5 in the men is set, simply a matter of jockeying for positions now.

I thought Southern's starting PG last year was a college kid who will be returning?

Yes but he is not in the same category as Sam Johns who returned this year. He will not be starting when he returns!

He started over Staude from memory?

Johns is leading the league for assists. Pretty handy distributor

Johns plays the 2 though. Staude PG. Ficken might start?

Have you watched a game, Johns is the point guard, brings the ball up and runs the offence, pretty sure that's the job description.

So Staude is the non shooting shooting guard?

Staude is the luckiest person in SA to get a starting position

DJ is on $400 a game apparently. Not bad for 10 seconds of work.

Insignificant when he's on $400k at 36ers!

Beer money...

Who's the best import combo in the league?
