I don’t have strong thoughts on that either.

Disappointing but if depends upon your definition of irrelevant and how serious you take it all I guess!

Not often I am serious :)

I haven’t seen a minute of tonight’s game so unfortunately can’t hand out any credit!

Nice to see we can agree on something though! :heart:

Nope lucky to get that close
Were down by 4 goals in the last


Cheers.
I tipped the crows but not to be.


I went to the game. The scoreboard flattered us really. In front for less than 5 mins and Brisbane seemed to score more easily. This High press we play kills us a lot of the time. Mids and defenders always looking for our forwards who are so far out the 50 and have to go sideways or hold the play up. If we showed the same urgency in the last 10 mins for the whole game may have been a different outcome.

How would telling corporate staff not to come in impact me going to the venue?
Only time I've been there in the last 12 months was for the SANFL finals! :?

I thought it was a point of interest as its the first time its happened at an AFL game since Adelaide Oval was redeveloped. It must impact the Power's budget if they're not filling up all the boxes.

Agreed thought the game style we bought vs the way Brisbane play would leave us open behind the ball .. Lucky to only miss by a point should have been more like 3 to 4 goals .. we really missed m crouch at the stopages and just my opinion asking for others thoughts where dos Bryce play ? In my opinion it has to be wing or high half forward not saying he is Gaj but to me but could see him fitting that sort of role . he seems to get in the way of or doesn't mix with smith laird and brown as the connectors out of the back half .

What sort of crowd do you think they will get today ... Pissing down here at victor since 10:30 and still going now not sure what it like in town ? Plus the fact they are playing the Suns you would think say anything over 30k would be a pass mark .

I reckon they will get twice as many as what the Hawks got last Sunday = 29,272
