The Backyard Charizard

92 touches to 36 tells the story really...

Logan goal for Port.... 20 points up now.... This doesn't look good....

for anyone that is unaware.... This dip$hit Tim Ginever was a premiership captain at Port Adelaide in the SANFL.... A more passionate Port man you could not find....

Nice coast to coast goal by Port.... Neeld would be spewing at our efforts at the moment....

Behind to the Dees.... 1.1.7 to 2.3.15

Leading the hitouts 8-2 but Jamar against Redden should result in a lopsided HO count...

Goal to Robbie Gray.... Port 3 goals to 1.... We are getting murdered at the moment.... but only early (fingers crossed) 9 point margin...

Pearce kicks for a "6 pointer"?!?!?! WTF is that? I believe it's called a goal...

We definately don't seem to be getting a lot of the pill..... Was kind of the commentators to appreciate a strong saving mark in defence by Riv.... Courage apparently.... Would hope we get a bit more possession though...

Interesting to see Mitch Clark dish one off to Blease.... Blease from 45m GOAL.... It is nice to see that Blease pinch hitting down forward could be a master stroke.... The kid can kick!

Oh thank God!! We are out on the ground..

Is this possibly an internal trial???

Is Melbourne's plane late?? Have they touched down?? Even after living here for 6 years it still does my head in the lack of talk about the current opposition....

Lucky for me I don't have to hear too much from this bloke.... but easily the most annoying sports dude in the land! Lives, breathes and $hits West Coast.... And I have no time for his pure hatred of Melbourne.... Same as Chris "Bones" McDermott over here in Adelaide.... Have had a few arguments on the air with him about his obvious distaste for Melbourne.... He must have bad memories of Todd Viney running through him and his ribs are probably still hurting!

Must admit it was hilarious earlier on this arvo when Cornesy and Stephen Rowe were speaking to Brian Taylor.... They were going on about Sheehan's Top 50 not having any players from Adelaide or Port.... Rowey was saying Boak is easily in the top 15 and better than Nat Fyfe!?!?! And that Graham Johncock is a better player than Heath Shaw.... BT replied with Boak? Nowhere near Fyfe.... and Heath Shaw every day of the week over Stiffy.... Then BT came out with the cracker "South Australia wouldn't even have one in the Top 100" HaHa.... Oh and the biggest insult by SA's two footy "experts"..... Jackson Trengove better than James Frawley!!!!! WTF are these guys smoking???

Hamish (I've played about 5 games) Hartlett unlucky to be in Mike Sheehan's Top 10.... hahaha.... If you ignore the crap, Adelaide is a funny place to live

Well.... I don't believe we are anywhere near full strength... be it neither are they.... I'm pretty sure Port would've moved heaven and earth to get the same umpires who massacred (officiated) the match at the Adelaide Oval last season....

FiveAA will begin their coverage at 18:30pm SA time (19:00 Eeastern) Will be interesting to see if they are still crapping on about the sacking (or as AFC called it, the resignation) of Matt Rendell.... What a blight on the Crows.... As if we all didn't hate them enough already!!! Anyway, I am in Adelaide but unfortunately cannot attend due to the fact my wife is working late tonight and the mood my 3yr Young Demon son is in.... Would not see a minute of footy... So like most of us, I am unfortunately relying on the worst radio callers in Australia.... Although I do believe I hate Tim Gossage more than any other in the land... Assume tonights coverage will be given to us by Tim Ginever, Chris McDermott (actually I think he is on par with Gossage) and maybe Russell Ebert.... Port Skipper Dom Cassissi not playing tonight due to a previously booked in wedding for tonight (brother I think) which is a bonus... Good luck to our lads.... A win would be a pleasant surprise....

If all goes to plan I will be seated at Moron Park with the stench of the unwashed... I would advise listeners of FiveAA to just enjoy the laugh... Stephen Rowe is a cracker (if he calls it) but it is more likely to be Tim Ginever and my most hated radio tosspot in Adelaide, Chris McDermott (who I have questioned before on air about his pure hatred for our beloved Demons). You will hear very few positive things said about Melbourne, except the love for Jack Trengove will be evident in their jealousy... I will throw some updates around the place (twitter and DL) if I do happen to get there (which is likely)...

Either Jack was standing on a ladder at 0:56 or that wasn't Steph..... Or Jack has had pine trees implanted in his shins

F'ing Huge +1

Was listening to a chat with Carowhine Wilson on 5aa radio this arvo.... The topic of $cully and his father, the baked crusader came up.... Caro was fairly scathing of the whole ordeal, saying that if the $cully family want Tom to be remembered as anything remotely resembling a footballer and not a mercenary, then there is only one thing they can do.... Phil has to resign from the position! Normally I am not a fan of hers, but she is fair on the money here!

I wonder if circumstances were different in 2006, and we had Neeld and Craig on board.... Selection 12 - Melbourne - James Sellar Selection 14 - Adelaide - James Frawley Epic Fail!!!!!

Was sitting on the fence for the entire game and lost my voice like never before. The umpiring was by far the worst I had ever witnessed. The crowd was a massive part in the reason for the lop-sided free count, but not as massive as the AFL making damn sure the first home game at Adelaide oval was a victory for the ferals. But I will see Melbourne victories their in the future, which will make living here amazingly enjoyable for a few weeks of the year! One thing I'm fairly annoyed at is the fact that my beloved Demons don't travel to Adelaide in 2012!?!? Wll make the treck to Darwin though for the demolition against Port... Exciting times ahead I hope...

Hawks 3 goals up at 3 qtr time... Who was coaching the Pies all year, Mick or Neeld??? If Pies lose, then for sure we have a ripping coach!!!!
