2010 SANFL Grand Final continues Dogs' dynasty

Your comment about the different style of game played in SANFL to AFL could be very insightful Brett, I noticed one very glaring difference at the SANFL GF the other day, in that there were many classic examples of the players running in and scooping up the loose ball, even a couple of the tall guys picking up one handed. You rarely see that at AFL level now, nearly all players slide in on their knees or stomachs with the resultant stacks-on-the-mill and 4 or 5 players scrabbling and crawling around on the ground on top of each other. Much uglier football than the SANFL brand, fewer melees on the ground and fewer umpire ball ups. Games flow better than the AFL version at the moment. We could almost change the name of the AFL game to "Crawlball" or "Snakeball" with the amount of time the players spend slithering around on the ground, this past year in particular.
