Noarlunga is about 150m wide, so could be tried...albeit a sh*tty place to train though!

If a Northern Grandstand was ever established is it possible we could extend the width of Adelaide Oval and remove several rows of seating on each side to have the width in proportion with the MCG ?

Port is a gimme
nah, I totally understand what you're saying. But I'm more confident against Pies / WCE and Port than this week. it's so rare anyone gets anything out of Cat park sadly.

These types of statistical anomalies tend to be self perpetuating after some period of time, what I mean is the media keep telling everyone how difficult it is to win at Kardinia Park and strangely enough everyone believes it, and behold the performances/results support it. Simple message to any team that goes down to Geelong thinking they will not go well is that they are right. You have to believe in your team, your plan and your ability to execute it, earn the right to be confident by preparing well and success will follow, simple enough to write on paper...... There is no doubt in my mind Adelaide have the ability to win this game, but do the players all think they do?
Not sure where I said Port is a gimme ?Port is a gimme
As Slippery Pete once said on here, if you line up before the bounce thinking you are at a disadvantage, you are at a disadvantage.
I'm not a Ross Lyon fan but I like his mantra of 'anyone, anywhere, any time'.
I’m sick of losing down there, sure it’s hard but bloody hell, our record is pathetic.
I just don’t think we are going well enough to challenge them without Lynch and Jenkins, especially after they have come off a loss.
It’s going to need some Don magic coaching with Tex and Betts to have big games.

Anarchy for the AFC, it's coming sometime...

Posted this in the changes thread but Chris Scott on SEN just said Rohan and Ratugolea are out for the Cats.
I give us a 20% chance but by God I want that 20% hope to materialise.

I think this game and he way we seem to be setting ourselves as well as the Cats who fancy themselves and want to make a statement after last weeks loss has all of the signs of being an epic.

I started feeling seasick.
Got a sneaky feeling we might actually pinch this one.
The way we shutdown GWS has me thinking we might be able to pull this off. We seem to be replicating Richmond of 2017 a little bit making sure the game is extremely close and then with about 10 minutes to go putting the foot to the petal and walking away with 3-4 goal wins.
We play a very different style to what we played in 2017 and what we were playing when we vsed them in round 3. Going to be a cracker of a game I think.

I'm wondering who do we now aim for up forward with Enright and Mackey out?
Taylor our only option or do we use Duncan as our new hit up forward.
In all seriousness I put many of our recent losses down to poor coaching.
I really think Jenkins missing this game is a huge blessing in disguise, especially if Himmelburg can get motoring and offer constant leads up to the 50m mark like I've seen him do on occasion.
We go for our "bomb it in long" to a flooded,flatfooted forward line full of noone able to contests in the air type game and the usual result is a given.
