True - but one is a comment about the generality of Adelaide and the other is about a specific issue.
Sorry I didn't realise that there was a need to spell out the distinction between those two contexts for you.

Let's just say all the places I'm highly motivated to go to - or need to go - to are OK here.
The specific issue of getting to Adelaide Oval by car would problematic if I were likely to want to go.
(I turned down attending a luncheon there recently.)

There would be more likelihood of me going to West Lakes, but that's a low priority too.
The only oval I've bothered to go to since returning to SA in 2009 has been at Norwood.

Ha!
Back in the 80's we used to say Norwood had the largest non traveling supporter group.
Why is that?

Horse-drawn carriages are hard to find these days?

They have jobs, lives, families and interests other than just spectator sport perhaps??

Whoever made this decision must of smoked some serious drugs when they were in Adelaide... One of the top 10 Cities in the world to visit?!?!? WTF?

Adelaide = best drugs ?
