Tough game today, I'll be cheering loud and proud. I think we'll win 3-2. But I'll be happy with a draw.

 

[Roos4eva]

Adelaide will win this.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Issey whatever is the new Matt Simon

 

[Greasyrhys]

F**k off Canadian/yank

 

[Greasyrhys]

Horrray! Finally van Dijk scores against the roar.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Man that Bratten is a real Brat. Thought he should have been close to being sent off with two dives and an elbow to the face of Barbiero (which was deliberate). Not to mention his constant fouling.

We played s**t, they played average.. poor game resulted. Also lol @ Matt Smith.. subconsciously he moved towards Van dijk as he fell.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Issey **** should have gone in the first half. Pony tailed prick went in all studs showing then as soon as he was touched fell over like a bitch

 

[Punchy Bassett]

And Matt Smith knew exactly what he was doing.

Brisbane always get a good run with the refs though, can do some things others can't.

Are you blind? I don't think you'll find anyone saying Brisbane didn't dominate.. especially if you put your reading glasses on.

Hindmarsh looks a terrible venue for wet weather football. About time the SA government upgraded Hindmarsh to international standard (75% covered seating). United certainly deserve it, with consistent crowds even when they were playing like rubbish. Perhaps the SA government needs to cancel the white elephant that Adelaide Oval is with AFL attendances in the city of churches.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Yep, agree there. I almost got drenched standing with the Red Army, had to find shelter downstairs. I really think Hindmarsh needs shelter in the arena badly, but it seems the SA government are just so cheap it probably won't happen.

As for the match, it was boring watching the roar have like 80% possession, but I'm happy with the end result.

You left out the smiley to show you were taking the piss 3 dodgy penalties in our last 4 games

We don't need covered seating because we're not a bunch of pansies that built an indoor stadium for AFL. We brave the elements, we've been doing it for 100 years.

Dodgy penalties? It was a penalty all day every day. Smith changed direction while falling to make sure Van dijk didn't get the ball.

HAHA...so it shouldn't have been a fk for the trip on Smith?

 

[Bradesmaen]

Hard to get a FK for tripping over your own foot.

 

[Boro]

Ok. We're all welcome to our opinion Was it you calling someone else blind in this thread

 

[XFactor1979]

Broich is back for the next game

But the Roar have been missing Henrique as well in this moderate run of form

I agree...He actually pushed off his right leg to land out infront of Van Dijk, and made sure his arms were outstretched.

Yep that is precisely what he did
