Best of luck, take a rain coat for all the spit. Feral dogs, and like dogs only aggressive when they are in a packVIC army are going across for this one should be loud, keen to see the lads get a W in SA!
Trust me I remember from last time I went to Adelaide Oval surprised I’m going back to be honest!Best of luck, take a rain coat for all the spit. Feral dogs, and like dogs only aggressive when they are in a pack
Mixed emotions, on paper we would of beaten Geelong, Brisbane and Adelaide at AO but then 7 losses 40+ leaves a sour taste in my mouth.Interesting that this game presents us with an opportunity to secure our 10th win for the year and considering we still have North to come in the last round of the season, I would go as far as to say if we win this Crows game then 2023 is going to be our best season ever as we should win at least 11 games. It's also an opportunity to secure our first ever win at Adelaide Oval and who knows what else is possible beyond this game if we win. We can set ourselves up for a fair bit of history with a win in this one and that's an exciting prospect for us!
It's an interesting way to look at it. I wonder if Carlton fans were thinking this way a few weeks ago when their future was unclear. They've had some pretty poor losses this season but I don't think a single Carlton fan cares about that right now. I guess what I'm trying to say is - do earlier losses really matter if you finish the season well and, in our case, secure our best performance ever/something even more special? I get the feeling most Suns fans won't be happy with this season unless we play finals and maybe that's fair enough considering the list we have. In fact, I think some Suns supporters on this board actually want us to lose so the season can be over and they can move on. There was a strong feeling of that before the QClash. Each to their own, I guess.Mixed emotions, on paper we would of beaten Geelong, Brisbane and Adelaide at AO but then 7 losses 40+ leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
Luckily for us he has an injured hamstring and won't be playing.The Crows in Adelaide is a very tough ask. Izak will be looking to get some revenge after a poor showing at HB earlier in the year
Ladder position could be very deceptive this year, 11 wins may only get you 12th where in other years that could be 10th. 11 wins would still be our best season, even with the extra game. It isn't a pass because finals was the goal this year but there would be very small progress made.We will finish 12-14th which with a fairly healthy list isn't a pass
Yeah. That Freo game is the killer for me. I can deal with Melbourne, as we were unlucky with the frees but Melbourne also missed some gettable shots. But Freo was all ours to win and we just lost the plot completely.Round 1-5 is really where we lost our season.
The Freo game was must win and we flunked it.
The Essendon game we gave ourselves a good chance and threw it away in the last half.
The St Kilda and Sydney games were just deplorable.
Since then we've gone 8 wins and 6 losses and beaten Tigers, Dogs, Crows, Saints, Lions, Hawks, Roos, Eagles
Losing to Brisbane away, GWS away, Melbourne at home, Blues away, Pies at home, Power away - 6 of the top 7 teams on the ladder currently.
Seem to have a much better balance to the team now
If we can win 2 out of our last 4 games and be competitive in the others, I think it's pretty encouraging for next year.
Will be hard to prove in real time that Touk was aiming for that small target.Could be missing Touk, AFL taking another look at the incident with Zorko wouldn't be surprised if he got a suspension.
Who do they have as a replacement? The Crows board seem to think a debutant named Borlase (192cm) will play. Josh Worrell (195cm) seems to be their only other key defender that's uninjured and he's played 13 games to date. Seems like an extremely inexperienced and vulnerable backline that's going to struggle against our three pronged attack in King (202cm), Casboult (199cm) and Lukosius (195cm). Could be the key to victory for us.We are blessed with Adelaide having no Murray, Butts or Doedee their 3 best talls.
Innocent until proven guilty and I think it's going to be difficult to prove guilt or intent. Worst case scenario he probably get a slap on the wrist with a fine and told to be more mindful next time.Could be missing Touk, AFL taking another look at the incident with Zorko wouldn't be surprised if he got a suspension.
they have Mark Keane whos barely played. Worrell prob goes to Luko, Keane to King. Not sure who is strong enough for Levi.Who do they have as a replacement?

Not really. According to Ralph, AFL is willing to look into it if Lions lodge a complaint. I would be very surprised if Lions wise heads would do that. To prove it was intentional during wrestling tackle - good luck. By the way, Steven King finds the talk about intentional conduct by Miller disrespectfulCould be missing Touk, AFL taking another look at the incident with Zorko wouldn't be surprised if he got a suspension.
So Keane is a 194cm Irishman that's played six games and Michaelanney is a 190cm medium defender in his first year of footy. Seems pretty bleak for the Crows and then you add on the fact that Ben King hit form against the top 4 Lions on Saturday. At least one of our tall forwards is going to get a fair amount of opportunities against the Crows this weekend and if that player makes the most of those opportunities then we are a massive chance to win this game against the Crows.they have Mark Keane whos barely played.

They have Michalanney would be very dangerous to put him on Luko
Doesn’t matter how inexperienced they are. Mac Andrew has been on the prowl lately—inexperienced.So Keane is a 194cm Irishman that's played six games and Michaelanney is a 190cm medium defender in his first year of footy.
