Game Day: Adelaide v Melbourne 


Chelly

Recommended Posts

Chris Connolly was quoted in the paper today as saying that Jack Fitzpatrick has been the surprise packet of the season so I'd like to see him pull off some surprises and score some goals, get kicks and get involved.

Very pleased that CC mentioned this, but by all reports around here he's been a non factor in both games. Maybe he's impressed during training.

The word Melbourne is yet to be mentioned !!!

They did list the adelaide youngsters who were playing their first match in a crows guernsey and then mentioned that "Melbourne have a few kids like that playing too."

Quality coverage.

OK, apparently we went to Football park instead of the ground at Elizabeth :mellow:

So there's be a 20 minute delay.

You'll know you're getting closer to Elizabeth as the Adelaide bogans become even more feral. That's when Clark W Griswald would say "Roll 'em up!"

Mind you, Elizabeth does boast Jimmy Barnes as a product.

I have just realised that James Brayshaw is NOT the most annoying DH on radio in Australia. There are three or four I'm listening to who eclipse him.

They lost me when they said this "everything they said they would do they aint done". Quality english right there.

Agreed.

Getting stuck into Bailey now.

And saying we don't have anywhere near enough talent to get off the bottom of the ladder this year.

Please tell me we wouldn't sink to those levels :o:wacko:

Well I'm not sure now, that's what they said at first.

Now they're saying we didn't allow enough time to get from the airport to the ground :wacko:

Talking to Mahoney now.

Edit: strong headwind on the flight over

"The Crows should kick about 15 to 18 goals today and build some confidence out of the day. And geeze, you wouldn't want to go down to Melbourne would you?"

"No. Surely not."

I hope we ruin these guys' days.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
