Borlace to debut against Port.

That is fair dinkum delicious.
Really disappointed that we're missing out on a bloke who can't get a gig as a tall in Adelaide's back line until there's an injury crisis. [emoji38]
Just shows the depth they have

If he'd made a spot for himself at AFL level then I'd be more disappointed with the ridiculous Father-Son rules that allowed Adelaide to draft him, but given he's been on the list for a couple of years and hasn't been able to break into the side that has been looking for key defenders I'm not too worried about the romance lost.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Yea that's it. Let the hatred flow through.

Borlace, son of a Port Champion. Lining up for the crows.

Feel the hatred....

Some Adelaide fans need to calm down, social media going stupid.

Won last night but we ain’t playing finals. Port are, I’d rather play finals.

If we go 2-21 and the two wins are Showdowns, I'm happy with that. Rather win both then finish 8th and eliminated first week. Save finals for when we mean it. Port aren't doing anything in finals either and have lost both Showdowns.

Spot on, Adelaide will just miss finals and finish 10th

Watch the Advertiser do the AFLs bidding and push the wild card concept for 2024, all F***ing Summer long!
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

That's an interesting take.

Even if you play just ab Elimination final, thr experience of finals pressure is very valuable to a playing list. Especially for a developing list.

You're right but right now im basking in two Showdown wins. First since 2017 we've done the double. Evened it up at 27 each. Kept our finals chances alive and even if we don't make it, can take this positive out of the season.

Yeah it changed my tip for that game. I reckon King and Co will be hard to match up on foe the young crow defenders, but with Miller out now, that just gives them more of a chance to get on tip in the middle.

Crows are used to cupping nuts apparently, they'd be more disappointed than Touk Touk.
