    A thread on politics- have some balls and post

    Free the hostages. Hamas are the monsters. Israel is surrounded by monsters. Iran, Hezbolah etc. This is a sporting forum. It is not a place for political activision. I am more than happy to debate your historically uneducated view and cultural ignorance but not here. There is no place for...

    Review Round 13, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    One learning that I hope comes out of this game is that when we play a team with 3 strong tall fwds we may need to play Gardiner as the 3rd tall defender instead of Lester or even Doedee. Lester n Fletcher were just out muscled buy Tex n Co a few times. Gardiner stronger n more robust. Horses...

    Unofficial Preview Changes v Giants Round 14 @ Gabba

    2 games till the bye. Lots to think about. I'm not one for many changes or changes for the sake of change but I think this game offers opportunities to do so. I think Gallop went pretty well. I liked seeing him get dirty on himself a cpl of times when he got beat in a contest. I just hope he...

    Review Round 13, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    Very easy to break down moments critically. Very easy to place blame on players. Probably some merit to doing so. We got beat by a good team, in very good form, in terrible conditions, infront of a vocal crowd, getting a lot of home ground free kicks. We lost the game with bad kicking...

    Game Day Round 13, 2025 - Adelaide vs. Brisbane Lions

    I've got myself prepared for a 28+ point loss. Hate to say it, logically I can't deny form, or home ground advantage. The bookies have Crows favourites, not a lot of tips in our favour. Im ready to suck up the pro crow commentary, ready to see Keays n Rankine rubbing it in. I'll still have the...

    Preview Lions v Crows Friday 6th June Adelaide Oval 7.40pm AEST

    He has to soon doesn't he. A good game this week in the ressies and I'd give him the game before the bye. I'd give Lester an extra week off. Doedee gets some game time to not only evaluate where he's at but an extra week to evaluate his knee and bodies recovery after an Afl game. I'm sorry...

    What are the chances we strike gold 2yrs in a row with late pick first year draftees becoming key fwds long term.

    Preview Lions v Crows Friday 6th June Adelaide Oval 7.40pm AEST

    That's great news for Gallop. Hope he has a really good game. Some raw aggressive enthusiasm might be just what we need. I hope he plays his role well enough to hold on for another game. Then another. Dev getting a string of games. Underutilised, hasn't had to come on to fix a problem, only to...

    Preview Lions v Crows Friday 6th June Adelaide Oval 7.40pm AEST

    They do at the moment I think. It's more settled, better form. Balanced, roles are well defined. We have a well credentialed fwd line, except for Gardiner. They have the runs on the board, been good for a while. Not at the moment though. Unbalanced, Hippy unfamiliar role and battling with it...

    Preview Lions v Crows Friday 6th June Adelaide Oval 7.40pm AEST

    I'm feeling a bit odd with the game. I think we go in genuine underdogs. A win would be a relief and a confirmation of their ability. A loss, a close loss inside 18 points, I'd accept and think, OK there's some fight we're on the right track. Outside that questions need asking, players may need...

    Preview Lions v Crows Friday 6th June Adelaide Oval 7.40pm AEST

    On current form, Adelaide at home have to start favourites. Got a feeling the outcome will likely to be the case. We are capable of causing an upset. There are players on the edge of finding form, Lohmann, Ah Chee, Charlie recently kicking goals. Hopefully the backs have been working on an...

    I think we're going great guns considering the way we're playing. With injury luck, I think we can set up and finish strong. I'm with ya. My post was a reply to a post in a discussion re- Oscar Allen next season onwards. Someone mentioned 2m Peter and I agreed with, we could do worse than him...

    Unofficial Preview Changes & discussion v the Crows Round 13 @ Adelaide Oval

    No changes unless the fitness of Kiddy n Oscar is up to it. The sooner we can get Fletcher back on the wing the better. Gardiner staying in the team for me. With the Crows 3 big talls he would be handy if one of them is giving either Andrews, Payne or Lester a bath. Id even look at playing...

    Review Round 12, 2025 - Brisbane Lions vs. Essendon

    5 day break, a lot of fumbling, kicking off a bit, went away from what we were doing well early. Nothing that can't be fixed. A lot of hysterical posting, a lot of unnecessary bagging of players. Calling for players to be dropped, blaming coaches, anyone would think we lost. Again if you're...

    Looks like the southern clubs, especially St Kilda are coming for the northern clubs academy's. If in the future we have further restrictive or limiting access to the kids we put time, effort and money into, is it possible the academy set up is disbanded? I'd hate to see that happen. Without...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion v Bombers Round 12

    I don't think it's the quality of opponents that should determine whether we rest players. I think it should be the quality of the football we're playing. If we were playing great football, if we were cohesive across all lines and if we were winning comfortably, I'd be happy to rest and trial...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion v Bombers Round 12

    I'd say he only got a run because Kiddy didn't pull up well enough to play. If Kiddy is up for it this week, he should come back in. If not maybe Dev gets another run. He got 10min of, as you say junk time, because no mid, which is his best position, was underperforming or injured. Also the...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion v Bombers Round 12

    This is a game, just like every game, where we should play our strongest team possible. We should be looking, not only for the win, but to improve our % as much as possible. I'd hate to see us miss out on the top 2, top 4, top 8 even, because of %. I'm not a fan of resting players unless there...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion v Bombers Round 12

    Only obvious change Kiddy in for Dev. If Kiddy is up to it. I could also see Mckenna coming back in for Dev if Kiddy not ready. As much as I prefer Gardiner down back, I think he is improving in the fwds each game. I would like to see him do more in the ruck instead of Hippy. Is there a chance...

    Review Round 11, 2025 - Hawthorn vs. Brisbane Lions

    No doubt he's been terrific over the last cpl of seasons. My question is, is he doing anything that Doedee doesn't do when fit? I'm not angling for Lester to be replaced or anything like that. Is there anything you can see Doedee doing better than Lester? Is Doedee a bit quicker for example?

    Review Round 11, 2025 - Hawthorn vs. Brisbane Lions

    Completely irrelevant to this thread. In the vfl game Swans v Coburg there was a 100m torp that went for a goal. Bounced a few of times but still flew 70m in the air. Worth checking out the vision.

    Review Round 11, 2025 - Hawthorn vs. Brisbane Lions

    I agree completely. What I will say though is that Hippy was serviceable, Morris had a cpl of goes I think. To me it shows that we could, if further performances impress, give Gallop a run and have that 2nd ruck covered.

    Review Round 11, 2025 - Hawthorn vs. Brisbane Lions

    Terrific improvement. Commitment to task for 4qtrs. Back 6/7 very good today. Answerth, Payne, very good. Fwd 50 entries much better. Fwds looking a bit more cohesive. Ah Chee n Charlie found som form. I have no doubt Lohmann will find it soon. The midfield hunted and tackled like they should...
