While I agree with you, I think you shouldn't let players off field antics colour your enjoyment of one of our best wins in recent memory.Not sure if this counts as an unpopular opinion or not, but rewatching the 99 Prelim Final on Fox Footy a week ago, a fair bit of the magic and joy i felt from that win has evaporated because of Justin Murphy and his disgraceful, unforgivable abuse of his ex-partner.
I take no happiness seeing him throw the ball up in the air after the siren, knowing what he did to his partner, causing her to lose her middle finger.
Losers like Murphy and Nick Stevens should never be welcome back at the club imho. Setting a new culture at the football club (especially now we have a women's team) should ensure have a zero tolerance for violence/spousal abuse against player's partners (or any person generally)
I seem to remember seeing a locker room photo sometime in the past 12 months or so and Stevens' name was still there, so ex-communicated but definitely not forgotten.salient point - can't change the past though - he and stevens are virtually ex-communicated from the club I would think - any backdoor efforts to reintroduce them would see the end of me - luckily we don't have anniversaries for "almost" like the saints so I don't imagine jm will ever have to be officially excluded.......
What?Not to excuse bad behaviour by anyone ever by any means.
If your gonna base enjoyment of sport on what happens outside of the sport there won't be many champions left.
Now we best take down Jailbird Big Nicks status also if we are gonna go the whole hog.
we'll pop you in between stevens and murphy at the next get together............Not to excuse bad behaviour by anyone ever by any means.

Bad hair, stonewash jeans with white socks and black pleather loafers.are you aware of the crimes being discussed?
At least one team implodes every year. We just had the poor fortune to already be bottom 4 when we did.

Yep, don’t want the newbies getting used to losing like some of the older crew have.Winning games will be important in 2019.
There is a single difference between Adelaide 2017 and Carlton 2011, and that is their home ground advantage.
Just look at the degree to which they've completely fallen off since then. That team has refused multiple chances to reinvigorate via obtaining youth - had the opted radically for the draft at the end of last year, they could've gotten all three of Luko, Rankine, Rozee, and potentially some of the midfielders between 19-35, given their amount of picks they had in the draft, the players they had at their disposal (Jenkins, Lynch) to trade for more first round picks - and is now a flat track bully of a side that falls to pieces against quality yet can and will beat up on poor opposition when at home.

Sort of agree but i'd still go Weitering on recent form.With the exception of Walsh, Harry McKay is our best and most important young player.
