POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Adelaide

[BDA 23,019]

not a vintage performance but we got the 4 points. that's all that matters

umpiring not good. so blatantly biased. 

looks like May pulled up ok. played well and totally vindicated decision to select him, particularly first half.

4-1 is a great start to the season. we're in a great chance this year folks make no mistake.

Go Dees.

Clarrie at pains to thank our strength and conditioning post game.

He gets it, and I love it.

5 days 

8 points 

100k very disappointed Adelaide football enthusiasts

Mission accomplished 

[DemonOX 8,837]

Phew did what we had to do but geez won’t be watching the replay of that one. 

A win is a win is a win. 

Onto next week. 

GO DEES

The umpiring is terrible, it’s so below the standard it’s farcical.

Bog with broken ribs.

Never had the misfortune. Can't imagine it'd be fun if you needed to force one out 

[daisycutter 29,893]

should have won by 6 goals .... culture problem?

[Simmo0911 85]

Said pregame I didn't care how it looked, just wanted the 4 points and no injuries. 

Really annoyed at Kozzie tbh. His lack of discipline really hurt us in the sf against Carlton last year and he still does dumb stuff like that. 

Still very pleased overall though

[Skuit 10,031]

Looking at the stats sheets, I still can't work out who Michael Annie is? 

[buck_nekkid 6,068]

I reckon we ran out of petrol off a 5 day break.  Did enough to win, then shut it down.  I’ll take the 8 points and roll on.

[Roost it far 9,653]

Jeez, Adelaide have some absolute plodders out there. 

[layzie 34,345]

Tom McDonald is looking a beauty 

[DemonOX 8,837]

Picket doesn’t seem to have learned anything from his last suspension. 

Looks like he might miss a week again. 

He needs to learn from his mistakes. 

[ANG13 2,087]

That certainly wasn’t pretty and a lot of players well down but that is a great result. 

[kev martin 10,709]

No reward for our tackling.

Well done backline.

Adelaide, mostly individuals, trying to win it by themselves.

Well we definitely know how to win ugly.

Lets hope for a change and turn it back in to poetry next week

[BDA 23,019]

Petty rethinking that potential crows trade. they look terrible

Absolutely. I totally wrote him off at the start of the year, he is looking so bloody solid. 

[dee-tox 4,835]

Good to win in different ways. Kicking for goal was very ordinary tonight. 

Good team effort. Loved Howes in the last.

Petracca best on ground.

Fritta three goals in third.

McVee in first half.

We were absolutely cooked in the last. We put the foot down in the third knowing we would run out of gas in the last. That last quarter was just professional defensive slog. Brilliant. Don’t underestimate how tough these two games were.

Just hung on. Our talls helped out with some last gasp marking. We were tired from a frantic port game.

[Demon Disciple 12,453]

Easy week off the legs this week thanks Selwyn. Let the boys recover properly

[Rab D Nesbitt 8,784]

Job done.

Huge games from Trac and Maysie.

Jibba nails those two first half sitters and it doesn't even get close. 

Poor old BT sounded so deflated at the end. 😂
