Just heard Nigel Smart From Adelaide on SEN talking about them using the state jumper against Port in the first Adelaide oval game in round two.

Now I must declare Adelaide are the top of my dislike list.

What a pack of Self appointed "the SA team" big heads.

Give me a break guys you are not South Australia, you are a club of the AFL coming out of SA.

I am considering buying a Port membership.

I will be cheering on Port in round two.

We've been playing in the State guernsey for the years except for one slight variation - it's a red V and not a white one.

    I have never really liked Adelaide, possibly because of the 1998 finals series, but this arrogance of theirs takes the cake, scone and biscuit for mine ... I'll be cheering with you, OD.

    I love their Captain though.

    Hes a West Perth boy so he protected from me having anything bad to say against him.

    That was a surprise considering it is the anniversary of the Blackest day in Australian sport.

    There are a couple of good points in the article IMO.

    One year on there has been only one charge and that to a Canberra player.

    - No charges for either Essendon or Cronulla .

    - ASADA is an under resourced and an underwhelming organization.

    To me it beggars belief that one year on we have no charges.

    Sorry OD I don't understand what you mean?

    I head the word winning before but I don't remember what it actually means in terms of AFL games.

    With regards to the WAFL, it involves singing, enjoyment and finally a Premiership but non of these things every happen at the AFL level.

    I do know however, that the MFC mainly comes second so you could say its the second best team in the league.

    Well I do like games where my heat shows heart, determination, commitment, endeavor.

    Have seen that a fair bit from the teams we play.

    I will put it simply for you

    - Do you want to go to a game that the MFC have a reasonable chance of winning?

    or

    - would like to see a game where a team plays AFL at a high level?

    It will be hard to pick which 5 or 6 games we will win next season but I would give it a go.

    I pick winning OD

    Here is my list DF now remember I have only picked Games at the "G"

    Games we have a chance of winning

    May 10 - Bulldogs

    Games to see a good side that will play AFL very well.

    April 26 - Swans

    June 22 - North

    July 12 - Cats

    I thought about Queens birthday but Airfares will be high, G will be packed with Pies, You will be so high in the top tier you will need your own oxygen and you don't want to see us get done by the Pies.

    Now watch everyone fall on me for those suggestions

    As OD said, it depends on your definition of "best". QB will almost certainly have the biggest crowd, and there is certainly something in hearing a big roar (and even better the silence if we finally manage to knock off the Pies on the big day :lol: ).

    There is also something to be said for sitting near the fence when the crowd is small, and hearing what the players say to each other when the play is nearby.

    For probability of winning, then the only standout for me is the Giants game late in the season. I suspect, though, if we beat the Eagles in round 2, you will wish that you were there then ... :lol:

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
