Plow is irrelevant what a toss bag of yesterday's jizz.  Big deal that Lever changed clubs.  Boo Hoo Adelaide.  Not like every player on your list was born and bred there (Bryce Gibbs to name one...).  Seriously, if they need to target Jake they will be looking the wrong way.  The ball will be up the other end of the ground. Suck your own balls, plow.

 

I hope they do...

Carlton tried the faux tough stuff last week and look where that got them.

Where is Rod Grinter when you need him?

Please Adelaide, please, invest as much effort and thought into a grudge against Lever as you possibly can.

Also, please, Adelaide, be sure to give Terry Wallace a follow-up call and take in as much of his advice as your possibly can about all aspects of the game.

I wonder how it affects things that Walker, the prime sulker who blew this all up pretty much on his own, won't be there. I wonder how many other players at Adelaide actually completely understand the whole thing and have no hard feelings at all, and are a bit embarrassed about the silly fuss?

That photo, like so many of the stylish things that Sir Rod, the Grinter did on the field makes my eyes watery. I haven't felt like that since my dog died. It is just so touching how he would sacrifice himself for the MFC and the impending AFL Tribunal hearing every couple of weeks.  What was truly amazing was the sheer artistry of his method - complete, fast and performed in multiples of engagements with smart-arse opponents who fancied their capabilities. What would we do with a Sir Rodney these days? He could really play football, that bloke, as well.

Well put! 

 

I am sure Lever will be petrified seeing  the frightening menaces that are Josh Jenkins and Tom Lynch coming for him before the siren.

Oh but wait, maybe they will send Bryce Gibbs after him.  Or Sam 'the hitman' Jacobs.

Puh-lease.

I can still hear the bone crack and explode from the Western Oval terraces in front of the John Gent(s) stand

Lucky to make it home that day...

The Locals were up for a fight

Yes, most certainly an ornament to the game. Used to get to the G early on game days to see him play in the Reserves team. Such developing class. Took the marks, kicked like no-one else you ever saw, handled the nasties on the field with aplomb and just before they hit our little rovers. Then into the firsts, went he. Did it all on a bigger stage to better effect. One of the greats. Did you see his TV interview with Mike Sheahan a year or two back? Pure honesty: 'I did what I did for Melbourne.'

Wallace. The same dikbag that Grinter phoned after the western oval incident who told Rod he was okay and don't worry about it who then turned around and ( I think ) tried him for damages. If you get a chance watch the episode of him with Mike Sheahan.

Wallace can go and .............................

Yes, the same sod.

 

Said to Rod, what happens on the field stays on the field, then later sued Rod and the club and got an out of court settlement. There is a reason his nickname was “dollars”

Yeah Lever should be petrified with the Crow thugs.

Viney should go to their huddle pre game and see whos up for it.

I don't even remember it, although I'm more than old enough to.

Did Grinter hit him from behind? The pic appears that way.

Wallace headbutted Grinter’s fist.

Walllace knows his footy but is also the biggest hypocrite. Sues an opponent for being whacked by an opponent but when coaching has his hit squads doing the whacking.

I don't think there's anything wrong with what Wallace said.  

Neither do I. 

It is curious the amount of vitriol that is thrown Lever's way, but absolutely nothing is levelled at Charlie Cameron, who left Adelaide with a year left on his contract and for worse compensation... 

At some stage Adelaide needs to have a good look at the people they have in leadership at their club and stop blaming others for their players regularly wanting out.

 

That was the first ever report by video, and they invented the rules for it on the spot. No umpire saw it at the time. Ultimately six weeks suspension IIRC.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
