This mob thrashed Port last week and are at almost full strength whilst we are struggling to fill a side. Not sure how anyone thought this would be close.
Having said that I am disappointed with our lack of structure and basic skills

Your last comment was all that was needed

Not disagreeing but we have to start somewhere. Just keep hitting the draft and work our way out of it.
We are finally starting to make some good decisions but you can’t undo 20 years of mistakes overnight. Going to take 4-5 years minimum

Getting rid of Dodoro last year was the first thing we got right but it will take years to fix his horrid drafting and trading.
We will be very active and offload a heap of spuds and will be almost spoon certainties next year. Need 3-4 strong drafts
This game is on at 11.50 a.m. Adelaide time. Not sure if I can recall a match being played that early.
There was a WC v Collingwood pre-season cup game in Darwin in about 1992 that started at I reckon 11.30 a.m. Darwin time (to avoid the heat) - which would have been 12.30 p.m. Adelaide time (so a tad earlier than the normal 12.40 Sunday timeslot).
Come to think of it there was a game on ANZAC in Wellington a few years ago which was quite early. Not before noon though, I don't think. Edit: apparently well before noon - 10.40 a.m. our time.
This one back in the 90s was played at 11:40am local Canberra time. Best known for Winston Abraham's mark of the year.
