Apparently this is a banter thread now :P Oh well. In the spirit of being totally off topic - looking forward to the game :) Taking my business partner along to watch his first game of AFL ... (don't let me down!)
Interesting point of view - but your post is exactly the same type that was posted on the board of every opponent we've played so far this season before the game. I'm not sure how you 'rate' a team, but we are where we are for a reason. Not to say that we can't be beaten, (and you guys do match...
Yeah that's right - 959 metres gained to dangers 583. Third player in the last 10 years to have 20+ contested possessions (26) and 900+ metres gained (959)
Our game was a wet weather contest - skills werent great, but pressure was up there. I thought Adelaide adapted to the conditions quicker when we were still handballing. I expected us to lose watching it, if Adelaide hadn't kept kicking points, we might have.
Been an amazing season from him. Against North he pulled a career PB, then backed it up with a career PB head to head against Danger in the wet. 959 metres gained that game, outside of the possession count people were comparing. Awesome to watch live if you have the chance

We take it with a grain of salt. If the media had their way we are chasing everyone right now. And for the...
I went and read all 13 pages before replying to this - most of you would be aware of the talk regarding his family, seems to be a trigger for the move. WC need him even less than we do - over in our boards most of us are mixed on how he'd fit in, and most of us would prefer to keep Clarke and...
Re: Tiges Vs. Freo
He's been used this season predominantly as a forward target but also seems to be employed to crash packs - leading to our crumbers/mids swooping on loose balls to much hilarity.
Re: Tiges Vs. Freo
McPhee on Martin is likely if we don't mind messing with the structure we've used for the last few games. He was used well last season to shut down Judd, to the point Judd opened up pavs cheek. Good stopper and high fitness base for run with roles
We've got the bye this week and will be playing your mob coming off it - biggest concern for me is a slow start. We're likewise trying to build momentum at the moment so would be a good solid test of the 'losing off the bye' rule before our derby the following week
