When was the last time we beat the Crows twice in the same season?

Also we have beaten them at Adelaide Oval the last two seasons.  And rolled them there in 2015 too. 

We own those punks.

Dees mate from work sent myself and the boss (mad Crows fan) a text after the game “we’re going to petition the AFL to play at the Adelaide Oval every week”.

Shockingly no response...

1998 I believe.  Or 1999.  I can't remember.  Either way it's been a while!

I want to go to the pub... but there is a typhoon in the neck of my woods.

Fair dinkum. She was a tough slog those last 7 minutes. But clearly tactics came into play this week. Fritsch was put behind the ball. We didn't try to go coast to coast after it started raining. Instead of 'pretty' footy, winning was our prerogative.

 She will be a tough slog going forward. But with Jack and Hibbo back soon (fingers crossed), I don't write us off against anyone.

Shag it. Time for another can. YOU LITTLE ANZAC!

We are currently fifth on the ladder, pending the Port game tomorrow, where I'd love to see a Dogs miracle that keeps us there at the end of the round.

I haven't been able to see the game yet, but I was checking on my phone and when we went from 30 points up to 14 points up with 10 minutes left, I completely lost all confidence.

I'm sure there were parts of the fourth which stank and we probably made similar errors to last week, but to hold on and actually get it done, on the road, with the extreme pressure that this game put on us just to stay in the finals hunt, is immense.

Adelaide is a good team.

Their last two home games were wins against GWS and Geelong, and they had most of their best players back.

They did play in the GF last year......

I really like the way Petracca is settling into his midfield role.  He seems to have realised that he doesn’t need to tear the game apart single-handed and do the ‘highlight reel’ things to have an impact.  Keep it simple and do it well.

Nup, this is the first time we've ever beaten them twice in the same season.

It's only the third time we've won consecutive games against them, too (first time since 1999).

Of course not. It's why so many people around here go fishing before it makes ground.

I was golf clapping in the 3rd, by the end of the game i was smacking myself in the face. 

Considering what happen last week it's shocking how close we let it get. Adelaide butchered so many chances and Eddy, McGovern missed  certain goals. We even had the weather on our side.

One thing for sure. MFC supporters need to find a good cardiologist.  Either that or we have good cardiovascular systems

I am enjoying it! But this is not a done deal. We are not safe in finals and we have 3 very hard games left. 

Why is Gold Coast a very hard game?

Kevin Bartlett gave us no chance to beat Adelaide on SEN. I hope he thinks we are a better team now and gives us a little respect. 

Frankly, who actually cares what Bartlett thinks? I certainly do not.

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
