Unofficial Preview Adelaide v Richmond - Grand Final Pre-Game/Banter Thread

[Chicago1]

I shall forgive you for 1998(not 1997, it still hurts too much) if you beat them Tigers next week. Good luck.

Who gets white shorts?

the yellows

Let it be a distraction for them

Haha suck shit KB

It seems a much grander occasion with Richmond in the grand final. They have a massive supporter base and have been through some really tough times.

It just wouldn't have feel right if GWS had won, fake club that has been gifted so much.

I'm really glad Richmond are our opponent and in think it's doing to be a real contest.

I think anything could happen on grand final day and Richmond have the advantage of having played the g the week before.

Hoping we win clearly and are probably favorites, but if we don't bring our a game, Richmond could absolutely best us.

Crows have just been so switched on in the last couple of games which gives me confidence.

 

[Gungadin]

Just smash em' Crows....couldn't handle a Richmond win.

 

[Scorpus]

KB trying his best to make it into a circus - go ahead

Richmond would have already agreed to wear the clash behind closed doors

 

[TeeJay Blue]

This proud Blues supporter is sticking behind the Crows. Hope they get it done.

Do It for Betts! Do It For Walshy!

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Crows 51-60 - most players are skilled whereas Tigers have 8 players who just bang it on the boot.

Seriously WGAS - if that's where their head is at, not a great start. Loves seeing Reiwoldt crying after the game too...was that their GF?

 

[Simmo28]

Afl has confirmed we wear our normal jumper and Richmond away jumper, thank god for common sense

It was a pretty poor standard that final...but we have to perform on the day

 

[rocket18]

Yellow strip and no Cotchin.

KB is going to be beside himself.

Perfect! A great distraction for them this week.

They will get plenty of Qs about it in the media. If we ask, we should come back with 'we would have been happy to wear the away strip' just to annoy them

Jeez they make one Grand Final and think they own it. Get stuffed KB your yellow stripe ain't even yellow anymore.
Its more the colour of Dangerfield's shorts after Sloane wacked him.

 

[Brentmeister]

I hope Richmond make a big deal out of the jumper. It's a distraction and the more time and energy they waste on it, the better.

On Cotchin, I feel for the bloke, but he has to be suspended for that, when you consider the fines already hanging over his head. I know Richmond fans will hate it, and we'd hate it if it happened to us, but the AFL can't sweep this under the carpet.

Judging by the excessive amount of bowel movements in the week leading up to the Preliminary final, please follow my lead: sell BHP: Buy Quilton.
This is in the expectation that movements for a GF should increase by a factor of four.

 

[6BTS]

I actually wouldn't have cared if both teams wore their primary jumper

And really, who gives a stuff?

 

[dajesmac]

Really hope you guys get up next Saturday. I've admired your club from afar, having overcome a shitload of adversity in recent years to be where they are. They deserve a flag. Please smash Richmond.

Please you are missing the point of banter. There's no place for sober and measured thinking in this thread.

 

[Huntercrow]

Dont think there'll be much banter tonight. All 95000 went to a pub after.

 

[BunjiMac]

Ultimately I feel that we've been through so much as a club, things you couldn't imagine as wish on anyone.

I am so proud of this group and the way they have represented those memories and people

This will be a very emotional week and I'm sure the players will reflect on all that has gone before them. There will also be a circus going on that is grand final week. The boys need to be resolute in their focus.

This group is special.


Overused, but there's just no other way of describing the bond that exists between players.

They will make me proud next Saturday, i just know it.

In exchange for what, I wonder...

*Waits for Cotchin to get off

 

[AFC3000]

Yeah so no problem if we were to both wear home jumpers, except I can guarantee if we had finished lower than Richmond it wouldn't even be a question.

Coin toss? change it for future years if they must, but the rules should be locked in at the start of every season, not made up on the run.

Richmond's traditional jumper is closer to the Hawks stripes isn't it? I'd be happy to let them wear that if a clash jumper is too much for these precious Victorian comentators.
