Yep! Some of my favourite people.

Wouldn't want to discuss the minutiae of the game but he's a ripper person.

My feelings towards an individual are mutually exclusive of their knowledge of the game. I mean I like you after all :P

No amount of post mortem would account for how empty this feeling is.
Got nothing to hang our hat on.
One thing I will say is you can't fight destiny. I felt it was our time. It wasn't.

The wife and I really tried barracking for you guys, we had to not look at facebook to do so though.

I don't get the hatred between the two SA clubs though, so many Crow supporters are more worried about Port being crap than concentrating on what their own team can achieve.

No doubt, perhaps I have more parochial Crow friends than Port.

This place is hardly anything to judge on though, a lot of faceless avatars where people can sling some shit without consequence.

FWIW, I think Adelaide will remain in the hunt next season, Port will struggle to make the 8.

A fall from grace for Richmond wouldn't surprise. Still wondering how that bunch of squibs beat us so comfortably.

I thought from the start he was better suited to Richmond than another tall in Otten.


Yes, possibly as it turned out. I thought about that pre-game and decided in the end that why wouldn't you back in the team that won the prelim by 10 goals.

We had enough outside players though that couldn't get into it would Milera have really made any difference? I am not sure.

Watching it unfold it struck me that as good as the Crouch boys and Sloane are, we didn't have a dominant game breaker like Dusty. Danger would have been very handy for us. Someone to stand up and take the game on powerfully and get Richmond second guessing.
