Yeah not sure why but Adelaide and West Coast fans like each other generally and support each other before other teama

I wonder if the way West Coast supported the team after Phil Walsh’s passing has anything to do with the mutual respect

For those that wanted to see the Fox Footy interview with Tex. It’s great !!!

I have watched it twice!

Tex really enjoying his football & teaching the younger players.
 
If the umpire had a brain he'd have realised that it was a contentious mark and blown the whistle several times - clarified to all players (including Rankine) that I've paid a mark, (to Sicily) here is the mark - and let him take his shot. A reset.

As an umpire you call it as you see it - fine, pay the mark. But you get a feel instantly when you've stuffed up from the actions and body language of the player(s). Eg the batsman starts walking for a catch down leg you thought hit his thigh pad.

That umpire doubled down on a poor decision.

Nice to get one back. Did Hawthorn break the AFL record (also held by them?) for shots at goal from free kicks?
Once again twice in this game the umpires doubled-down on a wrong decision by adding a 50m penalty.

Just no feel for the game.
 

Embarrassing by the journo. As cringe as it gets.
 
Doesn't change the fact he was allowed to go off due to cramp.

That should never happen, though I think Kornes going after him for being "underprepared" is a bit much.

Shame for Will though, hes a fantastic player
Yeah, we can't be stopping the game like that unless it's a serious head injury or the player legit can't get up without assistance in the middle of where the stoppage is supposed to be, Day was like 40m away from the contest.

Nasty injury though if it keeps happening
 

Embarrassing by the journo. As cringe as it gets.
Plane gestures borderline cringe, but this reporter is up there with the grannies singing the Crows song to the Swans at the airport.

Yeah but it's Ginnivan so I'm okay with it.
 
I get the feeling that a lot of SA footy fans that didn't bandwagon a VFL team at somepoint in their family tree may have picked up WC as a preferred team to any Vic team pre-Crows.

I think there is a shared understanding about the A/VFL's MO.
IMO their Guernseys are the best in the bunch as well, which makes them even more likeable.

I've never bought an opposing clubs strip. But would be lying if I said I hadnt been tempted by an Eagles one before.
 
I'm still sore in my calf from cramp Wednesday night.

I'm told I should try magnesium supplements.
I take Magnesium which does help to reduce the severity of muscle cramps. It's best taken at night, which also helps in assisting sleep.

I'd try and avoid if possible Blackmores which are loaded up with Vitamin B6 (25x times the recommended daily intake!) and there was a story recently that such levels could potentially result in long term B6 toxicity and nerve damage. Natures Own doesn't mention any content of B6 in their Magnesium Chelate.

You actually believe that clubs only select for next week. Interesting take on developing a team.

Give me one move Adelaide has made this year which proves that wrong?

And the thing is, we're just following the pack.
