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.

I am planning to go to Melbourne this year to watch Melbourne play at the G.

Any suggestions on what would be the best game to watch?

Depends on if you want the best chance of a win or you want to see how the best teams play?

Robbo continues his fight with the AFL over the drugs issue in the Sun today.

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.

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

August 17 GWS

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

Well I don't know about you Redleg but I was barracking for the blues. Never really in it I am afraid.

Maybe it's you.

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:

If they haven't settled by now, that is one hell of a cup ... :lol:

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
