any rate it all gets wrapped up next Wednesday and Friday (special 2 hour episode) due to the screening in the USA Thursday their time (Friday lunchtime our time).

Life works in mysterious ways. A game you have a snowball in hell chance of winning provides the magic moments. Yes, it wasn't pretty football but in the conditions it was effective. Thats the best game since the 1998 Grand Final for commitment and passion. Macca19, how can you say they...

Macca19, I to was there as an impartial observer and thought the game livened up in the second half. Both sides got frees in front of goal (would suggest that ormond-Allen was lucky not to be reported from one incident I saw in the southwestern pocket in the last quarter). Norwood probably won...

Macca19, yes the Power played better than the Crows today that is obvious. The umpires, the less said the better (and that goes for both sides - do you remember getting four or five frees during the second from the backline to the forward in a row). At this point the Crows are a bit of a rabble...

You are an absolutely fair dinkum idiot. Shit it must be difficult travelling approx 3-4 kms to the "G" or "Colonial" and not having to get in a plane and travel for 2-3 hours. Both the G and Colonial have minimal advantage to the opposition you name, given all Vic teams play their numerous...

Blues supporters, please explain:- Adelaide has had 10 years in the AFL and has played Carlton each year (plus one final) in Melbourne for a total of 11 times whilst Carlton has travelled to Adelaide 4 times (1991, 1994, 1997 and 1998). This is probably one of many inconsistencies in the draw...

I'll just add my two cents worth. Keep it going in regards to the mindraft, there is one side that hasn't had a pick in the last two mini-drafts - the Eagles. And yes, they do have a junior development program.

I don't know what you lot are going apeshit over. All you are doing is playing for 5th spot in the five because the top four will be, and not in any particular order, Centrals, Eagles, Port and Norwood.

I reckon he has to be the slowest aboriginal I have ever seen. Sure he isn't caucasian man and has spent too much time under a ray lamp!

Carb70, he only played 9 games last year due to injury and hasn't been able to get onto the field this year. Hardly a reason to call him a dud and when he does eventually play I think he will give the Crows a spark across the wings (he returned to the side last year in the same period when they...

Carb70, whilst I agree with your thoughts generally (the Power will probably finish slightly abovethe Crows, both sides will finish between 6-12),the Crows seem to lack something. Can't quite put my finger on it but I have to take you to task about Burton being a dud. This kid is no dud and what...

None. Who cares? What have you ever done on the last day of September?

And the reasoning for Brisbane from playing away for the fourth time out of 5 games is "they always travel". What sort of logic is that? They were promised by Action Jackson the previous week a semi-final game at the Gabba if they qualified. I know where I would stick the rough end of a...

Heh, Macca19, what does that stand for. You're IQ (Intelligent quotient). Lets get it right, the game on Friday night was a SEMIFINAL with a place in the GRAND FINAL up for grabs. Just slightly different to a game for all intent and purposes, a scratch match (Crows couldn't make the Semifinals...

Whilst disappointed the Power won, they have now matched our record again, two preseason grand finals within the first five years, Crows 1994 and 1995, Power 1999 and 2001. They made the real league finals in their third year in 1999 (same as the Crows in their third year 1993 but they finished...

I can't believe the crap from Power regarding the crowd. Oh, it was the starting time or it cost $13- (only $28 for a family ticket) or they are making changes to Footy Park (only took out 5000 seats, it still leaves 40,000 seats available). This is the same crowd that states uncategorically...

Well done, Power on making the final. Only one concern, where was the crowd?

Well done, Power on making the final. Only one concern, where was the crowd?

Now lets check the Maths again, Macca19. Crows: $800k to $1m + licence fee ($400k) = $1.2m to $1.4m Power: Nil + licence fee ($800k) = at best $800k. Simple arithmetic, I'd say. We wait with anticipation the dividend from the Power. Watch that space.

Macca19, The Crows had also to payoff the licence fee at $400k per year. Admittedly not as high as the Power $800k pa, however the Crows still contributed after payment of their licence fee approx $800k-$1m to the SANFL. Not bad. Now tell me what have the Power done in their 4 years in the AFL...

Sorry, forgot now what does the Adelaide Football Club do with the shitload of money it makes. Ah, thats right 80% goes back to the SANFL for distribution to the local clubs. Now for the other club, what happens when you distribute 80% of nothing, well believe it or not its NOTHING...

Refresh my memory is this an Adelaide Board. So Power People, POQ! I like many Footy Park Cat 1 members, refuse to see any Power games except of course the Port Home Showdown. Why oh why don't the Power provide a dividend to the SANFL? Now thats an interesting one.

I would summarise as follows: Best viewing and comfort : Colonial Best atmosphere : Without a doubt the "G" Best playing surface : Football Park Most feral supporters: Any game involving Collingwood.

I still can't believe you lot bitching and complaining about the place. I been there four times and have never had a problem getting in (and I'm from interstate). And before you start on that, realise that we in Adelaide, Sydney, Brisy and Perth have had to prebook tickets for the past decade...

I can't believe the dribble coming from the "Power". What have the Crows done for their supporters and the State. Well after the BankSA debacle earlier in the '90s, they gave hope and inspiration to the State. Where were you when they one their first game in 1991, I know where I was. Where we...

Get a grip everyone. On win doesn't make a winter and neither does a loss mean long days ahead. Its only February!!! For those long suffering Saint supporters, remember the Crows in 1997 lost 4 of their first 6 games and went to win the premiership in Blights first year (also Geelong played off...

Greatest club in a state/territory based competition - perhaps St Marys in the NTFL.

Who cares! I wish people at Port Adelaide would decide who is who and what is what. One minute they go on about only being around for 5 minutes and if they get flogged in the AFL then its only because they don't have any tradition then when the have a great win its because of the Port Adelaide...

I don't see what the fuss is about. I've went 4 times to Colonial last year and so what if you have to book a seat. Everyone else in Adelaide/Perth/Sydney and Brisbane have to so why should the Vics be any different. Get with the program, it is a great stadium for viewing, great for atmosphere...

Typical response, abusive. Why can't they be taught some decent manners. Mind you the last team to lose in Darwin were the Dockers in '95 (their first year in the comp). So not a lot to brag about I'd say. Greatest team in Australia. What about St Marys in the NTFL.
