Gee this sounds like me. I was screaming out Weid and Action Jackson last. I don't thinks its me though. I've been to all Adelaide and Port Adelaide games since 2015. It has to be on the Western side where the cameras and benches are, I'll keep a look out on Sunday Night.

Chase Jones? The Crows would like that pick back i reckon, he's a f#$#%@* shocker.

Someone at Crowland would have had some joy tonight watching Action Jackson play his way to a Nab gong.

Gawn was well managed tonight i thought.

Viney actually has good goal sense, amazing when you move players around to add other parts to their game. Good to see Gawn ruck less time tonight which i thought that was a good piece of management. Gus went from picking daisy to actually winning the pill which was good to see. Bennell just not doing it for me at the minute, i just don't think he's going to recapture past glories even in though he's 27 y.o. Sparrow some encouraging sign from the young lad.

Steven May is a beast. Clarry take a bow. Weid presented well. Action has just won himself a Nab Rising start Award. Game was just about 4 points tonight play some players back into form, on to Sunday now where it will be our acid test.

This is worse than a week in the hole.

Brayshaw is like the kid who's old man drags to play footy and he's picking the daisy's from the grass. Doesn't give a phark.

The amount of time we are open and free on the break and we can't hit targets is unbelievable, when you are watching live it tells the complete story. 3 easy goals if we are better skilled going I50. What do we work on at training? This is embarrassing....

Bennell a waste of space, finished as a footballer lucky no draft picks involved.

I'm at the game and the umpiring is diabolical, plus our entries as usual below par. #FML

That little p rick Mchenry won't leave Gawn alone.

Harmesy been good.

He's a smart operator Glenn Bartlett he knew exactly what he was doing when he gave the playing group and football department a clip. Absolutely no way out for Goody tonight if we cough this up, coming off a 6 day break against a samboy cup u/10 team coming off a 4 day break. 2 debutantes raft of changes. It's chalk and cheese.

He looks over the moon there EO.

I will be braving the winter cold tonight flying the flag in attendance tonight wish me luck fellow Dees. If we're fair dinkum about the coach and what we stand for as a club it will be 5-6 goal win tonight.

I've thought this since last year, Brayshaw will be traded at years end unfortunately. We need to continue adding pieces to the puzzle and we have too many pieces in that position.

Apart from Petracca going in the forward line and improved fitness out of sight, what other Midfielder has a different string to their bow? Clarry spent time in the F50 once upon a time, but apart from that its all the same garbage on repeat. Harmes in the backline was a fail, Viney and Brayshaw are stale in their current positions, we have not evolved as a team or a club. This exact fixture 3 years ago in 2017 saw us play without Max Gawn, Jesse Hogan and one other from memory. We experimented with Tmac as Full Forward, Cam Pedersen in the ruck and i think it was Tyson rotating with Viney inside the guts and that started our run for that year. Why not put Pickett through the guts for a period he's quick, tackles hard and has slick evasive skills required for a midfielder. Start getting creative Simon before it's all over.

Why would you risk a further serious injury, play Pruessy. Lets shark to some other ruckman for a change. We have become an open book for everyone to read in the last 18 months.

We are well and truely a mess on here. I think Action my need to have a rest his body isn't quiet there yet should do a Weideman Apprenticeship, The one thing i truely don't understand is the acquisition of Tomlinson to play on a Wing, sure its a problem area for us but he's not suited to it. I've mentioned this before along with others, why not throw him at CHF and try and clunk a few. He's not bad above his head and has a reasonable tank. Really upset for H.Petty that he is not availible, he is the future CHF that lad.

That's exactly why the game against Brisbane was so important to win, to play a top opponent off a 4 day break in a game of AFL with no rotation is near impossible. Teams in Europe who play Football rotate their squad from a league game played on Sat or Sun. Their is usually 5-6 changes to a champions league match day starting 11, that's half a team, how many changes did we make? 2 changes, knowhere near enough changes to maintain quality of performance. Midfields containing (3-4 players) are usually replaced along with Fullbacks (2 players) are usually rested to maintain the high energy levels the positions require to keep team perfomances high. We were sluggish coming off a slugfest against Bris and to back it up in such a short space of time against a quality team was too much to ask. If it was a Adelaide, Sydney or Essendon might have had an improved chance against a physically lesser opponent. I've been thinking about it quiet a bit today how can a team recover and play a game of AFL in 4 days? Port had a full day of recovery up on us. As soon as they broke us early in the first i knew the game was up. Remember the turn around for games after ANZAC eve games against Essendon we would have another whole day preparation compared to Essendon and we would smack them everytime. It's a compromised comp we all know that, would like to see how other team play on these 4 day turn arounds and we might get a better perspective on our performance. Collingwoods turn next on a 4 day turn around but the draw is very kind against a weak Sydney side. We were the guinea pigs for the 1st experiment.

I'm watching Basic Instinct on Foxtel more thrills in 90 minutes than the last 2 years of watching this club.

Awesome Football were dishing up to the supporters and sponsors, they must be over the moon. We showed for periods of the game we were really competitive. ???????????? Give yourself a pat on the back Simon.

Season well and truly over, thanks for the memories.
