Fantastic 3rd game this year, though I would have preferred flying over to the G  and see it with 70 000+ fellow Dees supporters . Let’s see how many we can find in Adelaide.

Any Adelaide Demonlanders willing to adopt me? I'm mostly house trained.

We have room in our household mate, can you smuggle over?

The Crows match today had 15 000, though this will probably be increased for the Port match on Friday night 25 000- 30 000. The other matches I’ve attended had 30 000, the authorities like that figure.

What sort of crowd are we expecting?

7,500 - 10,000??

I would expect a much better crowd than the last time we played a non SA team at Adelaide Oval. A whopping 2172 against North Melbourne round 11 last year. We can do far better than that on Saturday night.

There have been various tactics used this year in an attempt to negate the influence of Lever and May, but I thought early on against Brisbane that Fagan's was the best - with Brisbane's attacking thrusts going to around the 60m mark initially and then a quick chip in. We overran them (and it's great that we have another opponent that we have successfully fought back against before), but it was effective and I wonder if they will attempt it again. The interesting factor - I had forgotten that that game was played at the SCG. Brisbane is the team I fear the most in this year's finals, particularly in a qualifying fixture. 

It was at GWS home ground not the scg

Someone pinch me! This surely is a cruel dream? 😮

If you told me at the start of the year we would finish top and be playing a Qualifying Final at Radelaide Oval my response would've been "[censored] off!"

So what's the rule for each state in getting into Sa for this game . Assume NSW, ACT and Vic are out.

Tas I assume ok there and back

WA ok getting in , ok getting back?

Qld , nt ,? 

 

Tas-SA is low risk, and there’s direct flights from Hobart to Adelaide. If we’re still in Adelaide for prelims, I might pop over for that.

Dunno about anyone else, but I’m happy it’s at AO. We play well there, it’s only a hop, skip and a jump away in terms of travel for the players, and it’s really inconvenient for Brisbane. Hopefully we’ve got a few SA based supporters who can get along and turn it in to our new fortress.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
