    I’ll be there, over from Perf. At this stage I might snag myself a full blown drinks package and canapés in some corporate wankfest according to my work colleague.

    If that doesn’t come thru, I’ll be in the same boat.

    Hi PBrown. There are some good bars on tve riverbank for a pregame meal and bevarage. Then its only a short walk to the ground via the foot bridge. Enjoy.

    2KW has an awesome view over toward the oval, it’s just in the city but short walk to ground.

    Cathedral Hotel is a great spot just near the ground.

    British Hotel, Finniss St, North Adelaide, good public bar and nice restaurant at the back. Upmarket. Good staff and pleasant patrons. Not the sort of place for a fight. Not the sort of place for Port Fans more the Crows type. You will be safe!  More likely to have a philosophical discussion with a retired academic from Adelaide Uni or pick up a middle aged lady from Unley.

    Or in town, the Belgian Beer Cafe just off Rundle Street. Recommend it. Great Beer on tap, local and Belgian and good pub food. The mussels are superb with frites.

    Just on Adelaide, for anyone on Instagram that isn't giving @shitadelaide a follow I highly recommend it.

    Some comedy gold generated from those guys.

    Good recommendation, but I like the Casino bars, still just the other side of the walkway across the Torrens River from the Adel Oval; their back bars (outdoor balcony) overlooking the river is pretty cool and the casino food is relatively cheap plus a great choice of snobby tucker all the way down to pizza and hot dogs - but these are internal yet you do not have to be a player to eat there. Cheap booze and a full beer range at the back bar (as mentioned) and it is a first-floor aspect like a beer garden. Someone once said it is pretty at night! My summation is that it is far Ken Awright.

    How to get there: Front of casino is next the the main railway station in Adelaide, on North Terrace, across a little walkway from the SA Parliament House. Walk through the casino heading north to the back bar, cannot miss it. You will be looking at the river, the rear of the Arts Centre just on the right, with the Adel Oval just across that River by a great walkway. Have fun.

    Ive got some spare tickets to this game, purchased through the club so in the Dees designated seating area. If anyone wants them, going cheap.

    Yes that is the place I was thinking of, normally have pregame happy hours as well.

    You could embark on a Simon Goodwin tribute bar crawl as a pre-match warm-up, kicking off at the Ramsgate Hotel in Henley Beach before heading to Raglans in the city (via the casino).

    Add in a post game Powell-Peppering drinking session along Hindley st (keeping ones hands to ones self) and it’s a complete night out.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
