My brother and I both live in Adelaide and went last night to support our beloved Dees, and their supporters were worse than ever. Fans around us all squealing for free kicks even when we pointed out how lopsided the free kick count was, booing players for no reason, and basically saying how bad their own team was and then aggressively abusing our players. They are a disgrace. Worst in the league. We kept offering tissues every time they booed Rick Lever, and bronx cheered all of the 9 times we got a free! Stuff em. Hope they go zero and 10, sack the coach and head to the bottom of the ladder for the next decade.

May and Melksham won't be there, so a trip to a winery/restaurant should be fine.

Could Tommo come in and go forward to nullify Sicily? Have we tried him forward in the last 2 years? Probably one too many tall "plodders", but feel for him after his round 1 game.

I think it is possible that 2 of Tmac, Brown and Fullarton play. The Doggies backline is very undersized and probably their weakest line. Might it be that 2 of those 3 play and play forward, along with JVR to stretch them and stand under our "woeful forward entries"?

Imagine the squabbling on here if we get done..............

Yes I know, but I love reminding them of the fact about the crows existence in Adelaide. They pretty much just boo at you because they can't really understand what I'm saying.

Oh. I was way off!

I'm a lifelong Dees fan, but have lived in Adelaide for 20 years. Most of you may say unfortunate, and I'd agree that the city itself doesn't offer a great deal apart from big blocks, little traffic and is great to raise a family. 20 minutes to an hour out of the city and it is simply unreal. Adelaide Hills, Wineries, Restaurants, very few people and some of the countries best beaches. Gets a bad wrap I think. Visit with a local and you will have a different view. I also detest Adelaide Crows supporters. Not only do they have no idea about the rules, boo everything, and are horrifically one eyed, they are also unaware that the name of their team is factually incorrect. There are no crows at all south of Port Augusta (3.5 hours north of Adelaide). All ravens........... Haven't seen many demons in Melbourne before mind you. Not before midnight anyway. Anyway congratulations Tom Sparrow.

Seem to recall a lot of last years first few round games being pretty scrappy and pretty high pressure. Pretty low scores as well. Could be completely wrong of course, no basis, apart from an ordinary memory. But if this happens again this year, and given we're on a smaller ground tonight, I'm expecting a close margin.........in our favour mind you.

More likely would be TMac to free up Lever/May against their 3 tall forwards. Even that's a stretch. Pun intended.

Yeah he ain't playing.

What a surprise, Tim Watson doesn't like us. We don't like you either Tim, so it's mutual.

Sorry, my apologies. 6:40pm local yes agreed.

I'm of the understanding that the VFL game starts at 10:30am and will be non-attendance. The AFL game starts at 5:40pm and will be open to attendance.

I liked what I saw from Verrall in the match sim against Richmond. If he gives Max a rest either forward or on the pine for 30% of a game, that is a good result I reckon.
