Not sure if this has been brought up elsewhere, but I was thoroughly unimpressed by the Kyle Hartigan article in the Tiser during the week and his comments about this game being "winnable". ALL games must be viewed as winnable. The guy is too green to be coming up with rhetoric like this...
I got on to this late last year and found that you can get the subscription to the app for iPhone or iPad and throw to TV using Apple TV. The quality is passable only, but I simply cannot warrant paying $700 a year to watch about a dozen exclusive games for my team. I appreciate there are...
My son has his "When I grow up I want to play for Adelaide" shirt on.
Unfortunately his "When I grow up I'll get six weeks for putting Jack Gunston into October" one is in the wash.
Play with the sort of tenacity we showed yesterday, and with more experience in our kids and anything is possible.
Oh, and teach Kurt Tippett to kick...
I don't hate him. I'll be standing on the boundary line for the first Suns game and boy will I give it to him, but that doesn't change the fact he probably made the decision he had to make for himself and he did the right thing by the club by letting them know once that decision was finalised...
So much appears to be mental for us. That is a great positive when we play like we do now but also a great negative because I'm not sure Craigy knows how to control and retain the mental state, it could be gone as quickly as it came.
There is something 1997 about the team at the moment...
Are you kidding. I'd rip his hamstring off with my teeth if it got us over the line.
Teams rarely get out there with their best 22 playing. When did we last have our "best 22" out on the field?
Looks like big Ivan has been reading this thread.

I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing...
Yep. I reckon we could still finish in the eight if we can find consistency and play like we did against Freo/Melbourne. We need to produce it on the road starting next week. I put $20 on us for the flag at 501/1 before the Hawthorn game. Pretty sure I've flushed my money down the toilet...
What about the season rating as 4/10?! That suggests we almost passed.
Even on results alone we are only 2.5/10. And that is flattering.
Someone needs to tell our club to stop kidding itself.
Put the rifle to the whole lot over 27 years of age and lets start again.
You have just summed up why your club has never even come close to winning a flag. And while the above remains true, it never will.
How often do teams really get their best 22 out, all in form on their home turf?
It's like saying, if I was Tiger Woods and it was a bright sunny day with no...
This is great news!
Can't agree more about the importance of Stevens to our structure. However, the aim this season must be to try and reduce this importance. He can teach our youngsters a lot about how to be a hard working key forward.
Will be interesting to see how he holds up.
The...
Can't remember exactly but:
Adelaide: Traded Kane Johnson plus misc draft picks to Richmond.
Richmond: Traded pick 4 plus misc draft picks plus Jason Torney.
Adelaide: Traded pick 4 plus 20?? to Kangaroos.
Kangaroos: Traded Wayne Carey.
Kangaroos: Picked Daniel Wells with pick...
This part is the key.
I would have preferred if those words had come from Stinger's mouth, rather than John Reid's, something along the lines of "I won't leave the AFC unless the deal is fair". Somehow I'm sure that we will get screwed on this one.
Also, the unstated virtual nomination...
Based on our own votes for best on ground and awarding as follows:
Bigfooty Crows Board 5 Votes in a win = 3 Brownlow Votes
Bigfooty Crows Board 4 Votes in a win = 2 Brownlow Votes
Bigfooty Crows Board 5 Votes in a close loss = 1 Brownlow Vote
Bigfooty Crows Board 5 Votes in a thrashing =...
I would have thought he was a smokey in the way that other teams third or fourth rated midfielders have polled well in the past. You know, if the oppositions best takes Roo and the next best take Macca etc. You never know what a full preseason and an injury free season would do for him. A...
He was suspended in 2004 so it must count against 2004. The only 2005 penalty is he now only has 21 games to get his votes. And for what it's worth, I think a fully fit and firing Simon Goodwin in a fully fit and firing Adelaide midfield is a smokey chance for a Brownlow. If Woeful can win...
