l was thinking that I am hungry for footy to start this year an thought that it could be a good idea to take a drive to Adelaide.

For $20, I get to watch 3 AFL games which would give me a big hit that I need and also help out with the floods but then thought HOLD on !!!!!!!!!!

There will be a heap of Crows and Power people there what about the Dee's - is there many from Demonland going or many Demon fan at all?

I have never been interstate to watch the boys would like to be around Dee's fans not dead heads.

Should I go and take the kids for a weekend trip or just stay home and watch on TV? :rolleyes:

You could go, but if you start to hear the strains of "Duelling Banjoes" it might be best to start moving rather rapidly towards the exit - you really don't want to be there when the "squeal like a pig" chant starts up.

I wouldn't want an Adelaide NAB Cup game to be my first interstate footy trip.

The Darwin game has to be the best interstate game I've been to.

I will never attend a Port game over in Adelaide since going there a few years back now when I was about 9 and they threw food and spat at Melbourne fans.

I haven't been back since.

Fair call hardtack. U certainly wouldn't want to watch deliverance prior to attending the adelaide stadium. Fiction may just evolve into reality!

Really hoping to get to Darwin this year. Combine footy with traveling to a new place.

And take it from someone who has been to Adelaide to watch the footy half a dozen times... don't. It's an experience you definitely want to miss.

My only interstate trip will be in round 4 against the Gold Coast.

It's such a stupid fixture for us to open the NAB CUP against Adelaide and Port and not on free to air! And it's very unlikely that we could progress to the next round, not that it matters anyway

It's a very good thing for the large amount of Melbourne members up here. I think there is 5000 members living in SA? We Don't get to see them play often and to watch them early in the season is a small pleasure.

Adelaide was my first interstate game Vs Port in 2009, we lost by 10goals,

the beer is [censored] the ground is [censored], the port adelaide supporters are [censored],

my point is ADELAIDE is a [censored] hole.

I will be travelling to Adelaide to watch Melbourne Victory @ the Adelaide Oval.

shapes up to be a cracker game and crucial to where we finish in finals.

Shattered that the Dees are playing up the road the same time as the soccer..would have been perfect if it was on the saturday...

besides finals there is nothing better then travelling interstate to watch your team. I love going to Subiaco when we play, it is a good atmosphere. I am looking forward to the West Coast game this year. I will have easter in Perth and stay on for the Thursday night game.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
