yeah they arent world beaters and the 3-1  start was an abberation but they're not a basket case is all I am saying!  Remember last season they were odds on to go winless before they finally broke through.

I would take the Crows list over the Pies or Roos.

They are definitely a better side than Norf, who we struggled to beat away from the G.

Luckily we play Adelaide Oval very well. I think Lever would have some good tips for our backline to defend Walker, and while every game is losable, I think we have enough guys in the team who are under pressure to perform really well that we should win (think Weideman, Harmes, Melksham).

It may not be pretty, but I think we should get the job done. A nice sunny day on the cards too which will make for a lovely change from the wet miserable [censored] we've played in the last few weeks. 

 
 

They barely mention us, just bagging their own players and each other, reminds me of this place a decade ago.

A decade ago! Try last year.


Taking my son to his first dees game tomorrow. He is 5. We live in Adelaide and the supporters are impossible. Crows supporters I've given up on because they literally have no idea about the game. Hopefully not too much abuse for me and my lad tomorrow. If he lasts a half, I'll consider it a success!

Took my young bloke to his first game when he was a five year old. It was versus Freo at Subiaco oval and Mitch Clark was our best player by a mile. 
We got pumped in the first quarter and that was enough for him. 
“Can we go home Dad?”

”Absolutely. Just let me finish my beer.” ?

Enjoy the game and a start of a special relationship for a life time.

Hope we win by 10 goals but play good footy like we have all year.

The team probably takes every game as hard with no easybeats.  Your spot on with list quality.   They have the likes of Talia, Walker, Sloane, and will give the other lower teams a chalenge.

I took my daughter to the G for a half when she was still in nappies, sat her on my knee.

I got her to sing the song halfway through the last Qtr when the game was well and truly over. In the absence of any other noise, her little voice singing melted the Redlegs members area. I’ll remember it forever.

Enjoy the experience with your boy.

Hopefully you  don't get the duo of Adelaide supporters who sat behind me and Mrs B with clackers. "Clack, clack, clack, Ad-laide' ad nauseum. Only relief was yelling back '3 syllables! 'each time they got to Ad-laide.

I didn't realise we had a 4-1 win/loss record against the Crows at the Adelaide oval. That's excellent. Granted the venue hasn't been around for long but i doubt we have anything close to that kind of record at any other away ground.

I attended the loss. That was when Bernie ruffled Danger’s feathers on a tag. In my mind, that was the match where I started believing we weren’t sh#t anymore. I also drank 67 west ends that day so the quality of my thinking was questionable

Try right up to 3/4 time of round 2 this year!

Never met a Crows supporter capable of reading/writing so any bigfooty page has to be fake.

We played North Melbourne off about 3 hours of shuteye.

Im in the same boat, taking my two girls 4 and 7 to their first footy game at any level. It could be worst mate you could be taking him against Port the bunch of rabid ferals. Got the ipads ready and packed. Hoping for a quick start to silence them nice and early makes for better viewing and kills their confidence.

Crows will continue to fall away but their supporters should be hopeful.  At round 4 they were 3-1 in 5th position.  They have plenty to work with.

We will blow them off the park though.

2 of those wins were against North and the Suns at home by just 10pts.

How they beat the Cats in round 1 is still a mystery. Geelong simply didn’t turn up and by the time they did it was too late.

They’re still a sneaky chance of the wooden spoon in my opinion as I can only see their season getting worse and worse.

A kind of game where we go over there, get the job done and immediately focus on the doggies.

Actually pretty funny. one of my adelaide mates said they are a chance because "we are due for a loss" and "the crowd really gets behind the crows at home games" I think he's got to come up with better reasons than that.  

Why a few in demonland say the same thing, some say it's a danger game, and give as  much reason why.

Still doesn't sit right constantly being favourites ?

Everyweek Sportsbet has tempting odds on backing against Melb but everyweek i dont wager.The North odds were absurd.Almost put money on...lol.Sports bet obviously has its finger on the pulse.You wonder when the ice finally breaks.

Could be today but Melbourne would have to be incredibly flat.

Its not a danger game; he left and went to the Cats.  (Sorry)

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
