Hibberd has been good since he returned.

50 was there. If you impact player's ability to play off mark then you infringed. Harsh but there.

Dixon smoked Gawn there. Read it well.

Nah, 4 years ago he gobbles that up.

Brown is cooked.

Sparrow reminds me of Jeff Hilton. Which is a half-compliment.

their run and carry ease is very concerning.

Sparrow is lucky to have survived this long in the team.

Port are one of the worst scoring teams in the league. But they have a solid defense. If we lose to this mob it's a genuine concern around our top 4 credentials.

and we get smoked lol

Collingwood ability to win has been quite impressive. I've been saying for a while they are a genuine flag smokey. Probably won't win it but they are firmly in top 4 contention now and could well replace one of Melbourne or Brisbane. The final round of Melb v Brisbane, Coll v Carlton could well decide the top 4. Geelong ending their year with WC at GMHBA is just so [censored] typical.

If Freo give us Brayshaw as part of any Jackson trade, we'll have to give up more. Way more. Freo isn't giving up one of the top 5 players in the game for a 20 year old who will barely crack top 15 in the B&F. Just a reality.

If Preuss can stay on the field for more than a few weeks at a time he stands to be a premier ruckman. It wasn't so long ago that Gawn was smoking darts after training and could barely string more than 5 consecutive games together. Once the momentum picked up towards the end of 2015 it never stopped. Preuss can be the same. I don't get the ridicule aimed at the bloke around here and the footy community.

Scott Thompson comes to mind? Was prepared to stay if Melbourne weren't satisfied with what Adelaide could provide in return. I think Melbourne still bended over. Not unreasonable or uncommon for people to want to leave work places they enjoy/love (I did recently) for another that is more suitable to your needs. It is your career after all and you have to weigh up everything. It stands to benefit Melbourne that he's actually *happy* here as he wouldn't want us to be absolutely shafted. He's also holding Freo to account if it's true. No one should lose out here.

2 + 21 (year we won the flag) = 23 23 - 20 (year he debuted and also his age) = 3 Three year extension and Half-Life 3 confirmed.

No issue with the jumper. Can't get over the fact we are playing a home game in Alice this late in the season with top 4 on the table. Carlton, Collingwood, Geelong, Brisbane, Freo all ending the season in normal climates and fixtures and we are travelling all over the country. Seriously either do this [censored] early in the season or not at all. I don't give a [censored] what it generates for us financially and I really don't care for the feel good PR component anymore. Great for the community in Round 18 is just as great for the community in Round 10.

Nah, Geelong is laughing at anyone paying that for a ticket at that stadium. $90 gets you premium seating and a meal at the MCG. They're taking the [censored].

Neither team was that flash. On the MCG I think we win that. We played that ground terribly and only in flashes did we look good and SURPRISE SURPRISE it was when we did the switch and used the corridor. We constantly went to the flanks and the Cats just gobble that up there. The club needs to grow a pair and actually request we don't play there for a few years. Give us an extra game in NSW or SA if you have to. Send Collingwood down there for once in their [censored] existence. From when I first went down there in the 90s I promised to never again head down there. They inflate prices and basically price out opposition supporters, and they're laughing at anyone silly enough to fork out for a seat there.

Not really. Notice Geelong only pulls the fancy circus [censored] out when they play in this hole stadium? Melbourne too predictable.

We might actually be primed to steal this. But look out for Jezza and Hawkins in the last.

Making a pretty slow and predictable team look very good. We are very flakey against top 4 sides and it's a major concern. Game over.

Bowey out of his element tonight. Needs a rest.

Langdon's disposal sometimes is Hunt-esque.

dewey and a little wet. the whole state is very damp atm.
