Optimism
Dont underestimate the continual improvement, development & strength of the Sydney Football League. About 10 years ago the SFL had not beaten the Riverina Football League for 14 years. It then happened due to a committed player & coaching group & since then, the SFL Representative performance has been dominant.
Now they are challenging the Canberra Football League which is well respected in Australia as a premier competition. Today the SFL earned respect. In the future I forecast the SFL will dominate.Comment

Well Shearer, sorry to SPOIL your party but Drinky and the boys were very close to winning. Perhaps you should sign him up to be on the boat? He'll throw less tanties and he won't SPOIL your bank balance. Old "sausage arms" could then go and relax on the hill.SpoilerComment

Side Strenght
Shearer,
Not really an approirate question as I could also pose did the SFL field their strongest side?
Games like this if treated with the appropraite respect have quality players right across the park & it then comes down to commitment, pride & coaching. (This is of course if the Leagues are comparitive in level such as the CFL & SFL)Comment

They certainly did earn respect today. It would have been so easy for them to lie down and die when they were 5 goals down at the last change; but it was a great fightback. With a bit of luck - maybe if those posters from Wason and Lees had gone through or if Withers hadn't have had to go off in the last quarter - they may even have pinched it.Dont underestimate the continual improvement, development & strength of the Sydney Football League.

Shearer asked whether AFL Canberra fielded their strongest side. I don't know enough about their league to know - but Sydney had plenty of players out too, and still had a real crack today.

Only reason i asked the question was on earlier posts someone said that ACT were fielding there B team.
As for the SFL being the dominant league, ive been playing or coaching in it for 20 years & i think the standard is going backwards.Comment
