Gws

You're more than welcome to keep it, Annie

I'm going to stay clear of the GWS section in future and concentrate on the mighty Swannies.

Good one.
Take your ball and go home.
Now who's gunna play?

I am referring to the AFL,

And so was I , as you have now learnt the Power's present position stems from it's SANFL history , a poor analogy .

Virtually all of the SA people I know hate Port, they all support the Crows.

As you have now learnt because Port Adelaide is acknowledged as the most successful football club in Australian history .

In short, these teams had already built up a supporter base and were ready for the AFL GWS was something that was created IMO like so "oh we'll have 17 teams now uh better create another one, lets say GWS that sounds good."

Not really . The AFL could have more easily brought in a Tasmanian team and have been criticised for not doing so .
In essence the AFL has said that there is a geographical region with 2.8 million people not represented by an AFL team .
It's a ballsy move and you'd hope that the AFL has done it's homework before it spends a load of money .
There are some good signs like the gross number of new participants for AR in Sydney outnumbered those for rl
over the last three years according to ERASS .

Just heard on the radio that Centrebet is taking bets on Falou winning mark of the year ... 2012.

Are they serious?

You've gotta love silly season.

The first two grabs in the youtube vid are terrible. He's got no chance. He'll be out marked and outclassed in the VFL.
