Mini woot for Williams, hope he grabs the opportunity with both hands.
Sounds about right. The truck/Patton match up will be our major concern. Especially if we cough the ball up and fail to apply pressure going the other way. Which is what we did rnds 1-3.
Tomorrow's match is really important for the Giants. If they can stand up against the Crows hardened bodies and make a game of it, it will gain the respect of the whole comp. But if the Crows run over the top of them, it will be like 2013 revisited. Some of things that need to happen;
1. Start the game hard as, try and win the first 2 quarters; this could rattle the Crows, who aren't high on confidence
2. Take your chances, kick straight; it's how we beat the Swans
3. Backline must 'stand tall', backline must rebound.

Tomlinson to the Centre, where we can develop the ultimate link-up player

Rutten on Patton worries me.
I am with you on that. He does well at presenting numerous times on the wing, centre. One thing I have also seen him do well with the ball is keep his arms clear of the tackler so he can handball.

Go you Giants - I'd derive a great deal of pleasure out of seeing your boys maintain Adelaide's winless streak at Adelaide Oval

The key to us winning is the midfield. Get the ball into the forward line and we are more than capable of kicking goals. It's the backline we need to protect.
Anyone here believe you're a good chance to win today?
I've put some money on the Giants after I had a premonition (it was only a line bet, as I'm afraid my prem might come back and bite me on the bum)
Go Giants!

So we have played so well all year so far and have won more games than the crows against better opposition . Then why are the fans on their board super confident of a 100 point win after a win against at Kilda ?
Because we've lost the only three games against them by a total of 300 points. That's an average winning/losing margin of 100 points. We get within 40 away from home and I'll be happy.
Good point. I hate cockiness though. It's hard to be cocky in AFL footy. Anything can happen. Hope we put them back In there shell and beat them. Their board will go into meltdown
This is a game you guys must win to be considered a decent side, Adelaide are playing poorly this year, its away from home, its a great chance for your club to stake a claim for a top 8 spot, if your side shows some spirit and wins, then you might be battling for a finals spot at the end of the year...
I honestly haven't seen one post on our board portraying this so-called confidence or cockiness. Most of us realistically know where we're at, and are confident that we'll win today, but acknowledge GWS's improvement and know it won't be a walk in the park. If it was being played in Sydney I and many of our supporters I'm sure wouldn't be overly confident of a win at all.
The pressure looks to be back...

Great kick from Lamb - where do GWS fans see him fitting into the team (or not) in the coming years?
Whoever is on Dangerfield needs to get their shit together, he is killing us ATM......
