I heard that the St Kilda players dont train at Sandy unlike thye Melbourne boys did .If this is true then I suspect its one of the reasons along with the fact that most of the VFL listed players are not up to it why the Zebras are going so bad this year.The St Kilda FC are treating the SFC like shit and dare I say the just somewhere to play their reserve players and if this is the case it shows they have no respect for the SFC.
The again it is ST Kilda FC we are taliking about who are in MHO in the same category as Collingwood as a shit club from management to supporters.I just hope Sandy piss them off after the contract finishes.
Go alone i say billy.
Think it all comes down to $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$'s
I'm sure if the zebras had the funds they would be a stand alone club for sure.
The ideal world would be for Port, Frankston, Werribee, Williamstown, Sandringham and North Ballarat to all be stand alone clubs.
Preston, Box Hill and Coburg have the least hope for a stand alone status.
Casey have a large area but I would put them just above the Preston, Box Hill and Coburg to ever have a stand alone status.
Williamstown would be the best club in line for a stand alone club if it eventuates.
Unfortunately everything comes down to funds. Saying that the seagulls are flashed with plenty but the dogs aren't.
Can't see any clubs to go stand alone in the next few years other than the borough and dolphins though.
Vfa willy will never go stand alone,would be nice to see,but wont happen

Jason, not sure what basis you say that, but you're on the money. Seems there is no intention for the 'town to go stand alone, which is a real shame.
It was notable that after the Sandy game, Willy listed players such as Johnstone, Little, Faulks, and Jolley popped into the Sandy social club for a while, but very few of the Bulldogs (although good to see Hooper up there also).

How many St Kilda listed players were there?I also reckon that when StKilda are fully at their new training facilities at Seaford they will dump Sandy and go it alone.
I would like to hear what people think of this.
What would happen to the AFL clubs if Sandy-Willy-Coburg-North Ballarat and a few other clubs did get the money and they could stand alone.
There wouldn't be many clubs for the AFL players to play at would this force the AFL to bring back there reserves compition.
If i ever won the jackpot on the powerball this is what i would do.
I would also bring Prahran back in the compition.
Plus the Northcote Dragons !!!!
