leave it to deever

It doesn't have the same economy as other states. As a mainland state it doesn't have a huge population. Wa has its mining. Vic its manufacturing. Qland mining and tourism. Nsw all three. Without federal help it would be the boonies.

Adelaide needs somthing.

Gee the fines hurt. What an added bonus. Did you have to pay them?

That would be awesome. I think Grundy has been good but he's nowhere near Max's marking ability. Max is much stronger.

Wisest post ever. If I were there after our loss, I'd be looking for the nearest tasting.

I've gotta say the Saints have the best fixture in the comp this year for some reason.

Maybe but he doesn't have a great conversion rate. That said, at least he's taking marks.

It won't be Collingwood. Just saying.

Our marking or lack of thereof was a huge issue. I think Langers took the most. Our combo of Lever, Gawn, Bbb , Tmac and May usually dominate. The first 3 were out and the 2nd two had shockers. Congrats to Petty who overcame his early fumbling and finished with 7 as well.

In the Swans game I think we lost just about every centre clearance in the first but kicked a big score in it but yea they have had their issues.

It's a word that doesn't get enough usage. Demonstone would be proud.

Note to self. Remember how confident you were before the lions and Don's games.

Joe Pesci style.

This thread should be renamed, The Long drive home in support and acknowledgement to WcW and all of those who travelled to Adelaide to cheer on the team. Can we now stop Gather round please.

I guess there's always a positive. Speaking of which, did you stop at that servo on the way home and run over that old lady's feet?

Whoops.

Yesterday was all your fault for posting this. 😃

Yep. We were. Enough said.

I thought Grundy played well and has been good in all games. My only issue with him is he only took 3 marks despite being the player everyone kicked to. 3 marks is the most he's ever taken in a game . He really needs to fix this. Tmac. I'm sorry I have defended him a lot up until yesterday. Zero tackles. This is inexcusable. When your having a bad day getting your hands on the ball, the least you can do is go and wrap up some opposition players. This reveals a complete lack of effort and can't be ignored. Sparrow is woefully out of form. Goody was too slow to make any changes. Our backline was a rabble yesterday and it looked like amateur hour. Bowser is having a bad season. But it's rare for us to be so poor in this area. Our mids seem slow to switch on in several of our games. We have also had a shocking run of injuries this year . But the biggest issue is our forward line. As mentioned Tmac seems gone. Jvr is in his 3rd game at 19 and we're depending on him. Bbb is greatly missed and I hope he wasn't omitted due to rain. The club is short of a reliable, not injury prone strong experienced forward. We have mids galore but didn't think it was important to cover an aging Tmac and Bbb. Maybe the Max and Grundy combo can ease this problem a little but I'm not sure we can depend on Grundy with his marking issues to hit the scoreboard big time. We don't look like premiers at this point in time and I'm not sure how we fix our fwd problem. Yea we will play finals but like last year will be beaten again. I just don't see the commitment from them.

Gather round sucks. Tx gill. That lack of run summed May up.

If Oliver had turned up earlier on it may have helped.

Our players are slung or pushed so many times after they have kicked the ball.

Ha ha Tmac.

May pulled out of that mark.

What a shocker. Too many learnings. We stank. Sorry but it's true. I can't see this team winning a premiership if I'm honest. Bbb had better have been injured but I don't think it would have mattered much. Our newcomer in Grundy was the only player to show some leadership in the first half.
