Game Day NAB 2 - v Adelaide at Mt Barker

[Sweetback]

Jumping the gun?

Almost. It's his fifth year on the list. He has to show something this year or he will become surplus to requirements, you'd think.

 

[meima]

Yeah, he's still too slight for an AFL player. He also has all the attributes that Ross would be looking for but he hasn't put it together consistently.
meima may be having a laugh but the Sylvia comparison might not be too far off in terms of wasted talent due to questionable application.

I still hope I am wrong with croz , we already lost Simpson who I think a junior or thinner type bennell on talent alone.ballas role I think Langdon and Weller already overtake croz if he is suspend and injured.

The president of Mt Barker's footy club fair dinkum reckons this is the biggest day in the town's history! No, not because of an AFL game being played there featuring the likes of Fyfe and Pavlich, but due to the return of Aaron Sandilands playing footy there for the first time in almost 20 years. Seriously.

I'm not well-versed in Mt Barker history so can't attest to the veracity of this claim but it still made me smile.

 

[Righteo]

Also I may as well turn this into the game day thread now.

I grew up in Albany... he's not too far wrong from my memory at least.

I like your thinking,and I think you're right.
Would simply love to see him return to our list;but I remember Bushie saying he would not play for Freo again.

Looks like it's going to be quite cool today. Very grey looking day. I am staying near Denmark Airport just off Mt Barker-Denmark Rd runs off Muir's Hwy. Try Mrs Jones's for breakfast in Denmark it's around the back of the IGA and it does lunch and dinner.

Great minds Danny, we had brekky the this morning. Busy as, but worth the wait.

 

[DudleyDocker]

the beer up there gives you a mean hangover
you'll be feeling it today no doubt

Not too bad, I got out before getting too messy

 

[yakka man]

Sandilands is out. Wonder why? He traveled.

Bit sad that he is missing out!

Sylvia was 30,Crozier just turned 22, just saying, some players take a bit longer than others. To compare Crozier to Spud Sylvia is way off the mark.

 

[Gekko71]

Wierd that Sandi is out... the locals won't like that much.

On the plus side Brady gets a start.

Dockers by 20.

 

[Taylor]

Need to practice for round one.

 

[leeloo]

Oddly I thought that Sandi would play NAB 2 and 3 because he was out round one.

 

[Righteo]

Bit sad that he is missing out!

Oh dear

 

[Simmofreo]

Hang on so we only have hannath and griff for ruck yeah ?

He was probably out on the turps with them last night.

 

[leeloo]

Fyfe is captain.

 

[leeloo]

He looked alright getting off the bus.

 

[Mr Peabody]

No mention by Prior that Sandi was out just earlier when interviewed.

listen to this on Audioboo

 

[scon]

That'll be your actual Michael Prior...
But he did play for the scum so call him what you like

 

[Gekko71]

On a side note, Crowls got 17possies 6 marks and a goal in his first game back. Good to see him back playing again.

Certainly could be, at least since the Jim and Phil Krakouer gave a few of us youngsters at North Mt Barker an impromptu lesson whilst on suspension/injury hiatus playing with North Melbourne in the early around '82/'83. Still, didn't take much to make for a big day in 'Barker back in the day.

 

[leeloo]

Interesting tactic by Adelaide, blind us with ugliness

 

[Taylor]

Sandi is taking a mental decluttering day
