Freo offering 400k more than Adelaide.


What are Adelaide offering? $400k? Wouldn't have much left in the cap?

Oh right. My bad.

Its so strange, this hidden underground supporter base pissing contest. I've really not once thought about whose clubs supporters leave and whose don't. It's really odd. Like somehow one is more hardcore or something? Insecurity perhaps?

I leave early all the time if the game is over, either up or down, da faq am I going to sit there and watch 5 minutes of junk tume rubbish football when I can get moving and beat the traffic / get seats at the bakery / lineup for restaurant etc

Somehow that makes me hitler-supporter to the mouth breathing masses. Even though there's a huge % of those mouth breathing masses that do the same thing.

Jacobs BOG for me, he should be captain, best ruck man in the comp IMHO.

Awesome effort from Adelaide - to come from 50 pts down then 21 pts in the last term to salvage a draw shows the true quality of that outfit. I hate the crows more than anyone (mostly because SA media) but wow they are a good unit and deserve to be serious contenders for the flag.

The most sense you've ever made on SA Footy :shock:

Real test of character today and Adelaide showed they can fight their way back into the contest. Collingwood just rolled over much like they have all year!

They deserve to lose him if that's their offer. Would get $600k minimum anywhere else.

Bloody hell

Love that the crows showed some ticker and came back but we let wells and Adams have as much space as they wanted for most of the game. Not enough midfield pressure. Maybe missed brad crouch more than we thought as he brings that.

Thought our goal kicking in the second half was exceptional. Kicked some real clutch goals when the pressure was on.

In the end a draw was more than we deserved but happy to escape with it. It was as good as a win with our percentage advantage over Geelong.

Do we have room for both McGovern & Lever. Only player we've signed since the new pay deal is Walker & he took a cut apparently.

Adelaide were rubbish for let's be honest 70% of that game. That 30% though Jesus they ripped Collingwood apart. Adelaide clearly came down after last week. I'll take that result every day of the week. Not ideal however it could have been much worse. At least we will get something out of that real poor effort for most of the match and it's very rare you can say that after being down by over 8 goals. Still need to put up better efforts than the first 65% of that match though.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?
