The AFL confirmed late on Tuesday that tickets are already exhausted for the Crows-Demons clash at Adelaide Oval on the Thursday night of Gather Round, while the Brisbane v North Melbourne and Richmond v St Kilda games at Norwood Oval are also sold out.

No more tix available for the Bombers either.

I know a Bombers bloke that lives in Shanghai now and is bringing his wife down for 2 weeks but couldn’t get a ticket so paid for the Premiership room tickets. He is going to the Barossa and Clare Valley for some sightseeing whilst here as he has never been to Adelaide

Ridiculous, considering how injury prone he has been.


Do the clubs know something we dont?
Have they been told that trading a player to anywhere the club chooses is coming in? It would explain alot of these long term deals, it gives the club the upper hand in a big way. Darcy would be a very valuable commodity under these circumstances.

Absolutely not, the clubs know nothing. Just read S.A. Footy all the f**kings experts are on here, what would an AFL club know about its list or the goings on inside its own 4 walls.

My assessment of a player is based solely on:
1) Have they ****** me in supercoach
2) Have they ****** my SGM

Clayton Oliver will take “extended leave” to concentrate on his personal wellbeing.

'extended leave for personal wellbeing' rarely ends well in footy.... hope he manages to buck the trend.

I heard a podcast and the WA reporter (maybe X Ellis?) said that there was little driving their program over the Christmas break other than the player themselves and very little accountability when they rocked up for day 1.

Maybe the woke factor of not doing skin folds is to blame?

If there is no competition for positions, then why push yourself (other than to stop breaking down when you are taking on a full exercise load)?

I can't see them doing much in season 2024.
