We don't lose often in Adelaide, even in 2017 we beat the crowds by 42 points, our record there since 2016 is more wins then loses

Thanks for reminding me. We have done well there but not so much prior to 2017.

This team is playing better than that one so while Im confident I still thinks it a tough game.

One its Adelaide not Tasmania ...big crowd.

Two..we are being hunted now especially by lower clubs that desperately need a scalp.

I hate crows crowds.

    I think Viney loves to play in Adelaide - agreed - return of a native son and all? Has he played well there recently?

    Unless the boys decide to completely phone it in and go away from everything that's got us to this point so far, we're not losing against the Crows

    Put time into Tex, Laird and Keays 

    I can't see them kicking a high score. 

    Since Goody mentioned how we want to wrestle the game out until we have control, it's given me even more belief 

    Should win by 3+ goals at least. 

    Don't care how we do it, just want to get the W

    I envisage a 10 min bonanza like we had against North and Hawthorn but hopefully earlier in the game. This mob have lost their last 5. Wouldn't mind the boys getting a bit of bloodlust up and really belting them.

    Adelaide have won 10 qtrs of football this year and lost 25 (1 draw)

    They haven't won a 3rd qtr all year

    Last 5 games they have lost averaging 64.8 pts. Avg losing margin 5 goals

    Opposition in the last 5 games have averaged 97 pts

     

    We've got this

    You ever sat at a Port home game? Crows supporters, in contrast, are the model of civility. Most of them voted for Don Dunstan back in the day. And apart from Don's Safari suits, (thankfully a long-forgotten fashion statement), they still retain some degree of reasonable behaviour.

    Adelaide will be a difficult beast to tame. Home ground, a new-found modus operandi. They went West last week and didn't lose by much. The lads need to be on top of their game for this.

    Give them some credit, I’m sick of most our supporters not believing and saying every game a danger game

    Get on board & give them some credit for playing some fantastic football

    No I must say Ive never had the pleasure.

    Ive heard that most of them are out on day release.

    So I guess I should be more generous to the crows mob. Nah I cant. Perpetual booers. Drives me bonkers when they boo every shot on goal. I know its not cricket but sheesh.

    I remember those safari suits. My dad wore one for several years(i think it was the same one)

    In my role as family clown I wouud quip as he walked out the front door..

    "Dad be careful its a jungle out there"

    He never appreciated it.

    Can you imagine this being posted on “what they’re saying at Goschs Paddock/Casey Fields/insert other place “ on other forums -  most other fans wouldn’t be able to understand such ripping repartee like this and the Dunstan bit above. Too much humour, intelligence and correct grammar. It’d be lost on most.

    Danger game? 

    I don't see it. We have them covered in all areas of the ground and so far this season all I have seen from our team is one that is able to respond and work out a way to win. 

    Simple structures, setting up well behind the ball and players taking on the proper responsibilities.

    Nah, not a danger game.

    I'm on board. Just noting Adelaide might be more difficult than we expect.

    Nice angle, D17, but I have to step in: not enough Ls and Ms for Christian but there is sufficient for a Gawn to drop back into the hole...

    ...Which leaves E-NOISE, by the way. The fugazi on here that this is a danger game?....

    • 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.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
