Well after watching 50 hours of supposedly national footy coverage this week I finally found out who Richmond are playing in the GF by turning off and doing some detective work. For those of you who haven't taken the trouble to tune into 5AA or read the Advertiser, its actually Adelaide! Who would have known?
I am supporting Adelaide because the narrative around their story is so compelling. They have had to fight so hard - their coach was murdered, their best player was snatched, their ruckman's brother died on the eve of the finals. Its been such a long time since we had an actual inspirational story of triumph over adversity in a GF. And not only that, the individual life stories of guys like Eddie Betts are just so fascinating. The Adelaide Crows story of getting to the 2017 GF is the footy fairytale of our generation.
If you are not hoping for a Crows win, then that is just like shooting Bambi or hoping the house breakers win in Home Alone.
Neutrals supporting the other mob are just bad people.
WTF?
I know it is like picking between Saddam Hussein and Adolf Hitler but c'mon man, when push comes to shove you know there is only one right answer today.
Adelaide since Richmond were gifted their Grand Final berth by umpires who tried to even up the free kick count in the fourth quarter to dismiss such claims.
Plus the fact that Trent Cotchin will be let off with two strikes to his name already all because it's the Grand Final.
I think the Crows are in for a tough time with the umpires next week so hopefully they can overcome it.
My best mate is a Tigers supporter, so makes it a little tougher to go against the old enemy.
How'd that work out for ya?I feel like Adelaide could win by anything up to 100 points plus.
I feel like if Richmond win the most it would be is 2-3goals.
Adelaide comfortably Zzzzz
