NAB Cup would many Demon fans go to Adelaide?

Recommended Posts

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.

I'll be making two interstate trips this year... to Melbourne :-) Don't know which games yet, but must at be the MCG.

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.

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
