Great win, with plenty of room to improve for the next 3 wins.

I was pleasantly surprised by the club's ability to find a good relocation option for my group. Got my new seat today... one row back and two seats over. Switched our group of 4 from a 1x4 to a 2x2 arrangement, which will be pretty perfect. Had been worried after hearing the feedback from the...

Imo, a big part of the problem is that umpires at AFL level have consistently failed to penalise dangerous tackles. Sam's tackle should have been a free kick against for a dangerous tackle, but they are often missed, and occasionally rewarded. Every week there seems to be at least one dangerous...

I'm not completely convinced this is the way to beat us. We've been very strong against sides that move the ball slowly because we've been able to convert that into significant numbers of repeat inside 50 entries. I think Richmond showed that the way to counter our forward half defence is to...

I had issues while using my computer, stuck at the page after putting in barcodes. Use your mobile device, and while the website is quite a bit clunkier, it does get you through the block.

Sames.

Rubbish. They can't get in the full amount they would otherwise because of AFL restrictions to create the "bubble" (i.e. first 2 rows blocked off, and extra seats around interchange benches and coaches box). 25k is a number that media threw around because of the 50% capacity comment. Was never...

This is not the current rule / interpretation since the expansion of the protected area. In the event that a player does get in the way, umpire is to blow their whistle, clear the protected area and then resume play. Exactly as was done.

I think the hate for the handpass is too much. Wines was facing away from the direction we needed to get the ball in a hurry and see he's given the handpass to SPP who is inboard and appears in a decent amount of space running away from the clearance. Cunningham makes a good stride in to...

Would be a huge oversight by the AFL to accidentally give us a Friday night game when they have a perfect opportunity to just give us more Sunday lunch time slots.

Yeah, but... We really need to just make sure there are more holding the balls paid and stuff. Because otherwise our game would be ugly or something.

The issue with this isn't SA, it's that Qld and WA both require a 14 day quarantine for travellers coming from SA. Makes sense, right?

Can't agree at all that it's Marshall's fault... There's nothing in SA stopping both of our next 2 hub games being relocated back to Adelaide. Then send us to Qld to play GWS and St Kilda before coming back to SA to play Collingwood and Geelong. Doesn't take that big a brain. Instead rush out a...

Hoping we can win this match. Would've been good to have played 16 minute quarters against West Coast a few times in recent years... And * you Luke Shuey. And * you AFL for putting that disgrace of a free kick on your "finals highlights" packages.

Given Talia played a completely negating role on Dix, I thought he was okay.

Still can't believe I'm going to the footy tonight. Thanks Smithy7 for posting my ugly mug in the preview thread! I've heard my tickets are for bay 330, only a couple of bays over from my usual seats.

You must sit in your assigned seat.

As that family... Let me just say the 4 of us are inaugural 1870 members, and season ticket holders / members since yonks... So I think that counts!

Yeah, he was pretty blown away. I didn't believe him when he messaged me at first.

Ha! Wasn't home, but I don't have much patience for the media at the best of times.

Since the cat is now getting let out of the bag... My old man got a call from TJ and Ken at around midday today to let him know all 4 of us were gonna be going Saturday night. Had 7 News around tonight for a quick interview, and Tiser is doing a photo shoot in the morning. Pumped! :D

I'm not 100% sure about this. As I understand every single person who is drawn needs to be contacted to ensure that they will be able to make it.

And I'm damn happy to be selected. ;)

Guys. Guys! GUYS! Today is so not melt day. :cool:

I'm assuming you elected to pause your membership? I'd be curious what happened, but I'd have assumed that's effectively not pledging 100%. I didn't bother responding to the options myself, so they're continuing to take their Club 1870 money from me. I'd love some appreciation at a later date...

It's more murky than that. NSW announce there's at 8am EST, but that's based on 8pm the night before, so any positives in between aren't reported. Victoria's are even more nebulous on the timing of when the numbers are actually from. The general timeline of reporting of cases is NSW first up at...

Developing a cold on the day that a testing blitz is announced in SA. Guess I need to work out how to get into a clinic.

I felt it was the greatest failing of medical experts everywhere to imply that only old people and those with serious health conditions get badly sick from this virus. The misconception that it is only old people is still prevalent despite evidence to suggest that otherwise healthy young and...

There's been a bit of discussion about economic costs vs health costs and our brains are used to dealing in trade-offs and so it's pretty common for people to naturally think that the decision is about balancing the two. But the world is not so simple. Thinking like this is a false dichotomy. If...

I find it more likely that the demographics of cruise passengers shares some strong correlations with those who are more vulnerable to Covid-19.
