Adelaide kicked themselves out of the game in the first half with 4.11

Second half scores Port 9.9 vs Adel 0.2.  A shellacking.

Gee, we bemoan the lack of on-field leadership of our captains but at least they put their bodies on the line and go for it.  Tex shows neither leadership nor courage.  Would have to be the worst AFL captain.

    He bobs up occasionally when I’m watching porn Luci ( Which is fairly frequently TBH )

    Where the AFL want them.

    Hasn't the AFL bent over backwards to push the druggies redemption story. Started off with an incredibly soft draw and, being a conspiracy theorist, I'm bemused by the free kicks they receive weekly when looking out of a contest. I'm sure someone will suggest I'm being paranoid and they would be right.

    They actually wouldn’t give a stuff, provided the sponsors pay them big bucks so that they can get paid big bucks. 

    It is no longer a game for the people: it is a business money game for the likes of Gillon. 

    I agree completely. 

    I just needed to vent!!!!

    Money talks, plus several Bummers fans on the Commission.

    Thanks Clintosaurus. I did forget about that. Started with Spotless Catering and the old Ron Evans connection.

    Things I'm not looking forward to -

    Gold Coast in Round 23, playing the Giants who will not want to flirt with form at all going into the finals.

    I've seen enough of the Giants to know that once they get a roll on, they wont take it easy the way Richmond did.

    The 186 line is facing very credible threat.

    I said to a Crows mate at the end of 2017 season, they have a 2 year window to win a flag. 

    They are well and truely cooked, they will be down there for a very long time.

    12 games at Adelaide Oval will help them remain mid-table for a long time

    6-13 is their sweet spot

    Yeah mid table not challenging, midas well be bottom, but they don't bottom out the crows. Won't be challenging for a very long time.

    Are the wheels falling off at Pie-land? 

    An undisciplined lot:  Stephenson bets on himself and his team.  Beams reportedly deep into gambling problems.  Now De Goey is fined for using-phone-while-driving.  Their is talk of unrest among young players over the club treatment of Stephenson.  Coach is frazzled.  Players look disinterested. 

    Suspect their poor recent form is much more than a few injured good players. 

    It will be bitter sweet if their season implodes:  Sweet that they fall.  Bitter that ours is worse.

    It would be amusing should they completely fall away Luci and miss the 8 like some of their supporters are fearing. Then it’s a case of “see ya Round 1 next year Stevo”.

    Their remaining games are tough with the exception of Suns and they have us of course. Look at their draw and you can maybe pencil in just two more wins. Hope it comes down to their R23 game against the Dons for a top 8 spot. Yuk, which team would we cheer on?

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
