Final at Coloniel.....we've been robbed

[MarksGirl-kbcrowgirl]

Stevo for Club Champion in 2002!


The AFL has done it again. Not only have we been forced to play in Melbourne but we are doing so after a 5 day break! Do you think they are trying to get a Victorian team in the final?

I can not beleive what happens to us.

We play our first game away.

We don't play any games at the MCG.

We get sent to Canberra in July.

We are sent to Perth on the last round again.

And then you add the wizard cup finals fiasco, it is a joke! We won all three of our games, we deserve a home final it is as simple as that.

The ultimate revenge will be to cream Richmond on Friday and make it an all SA Grand Final in Adelaide next weekend. I am heading over on Friday night to give the boys some support, lets hope we can slay some tigers!

Go You Crows!!!!

You should be happy.

Camries Colonial record is probably better than their football park record in recent times.

Don't worry about it Mark's Girl, I just read an interesting article on the Crows' site about how this will fire the boys up and we'll go over there, with our backs against the wall, primed for a good showing!!

It's also a good hitout for when we play at Colonial in Round 1, so, I don't think we should be too concerned about it, it is only the Mickey Mouse Cup afterall (though the 5 day break does kinda worry me).

I found it funny that the AFL said Adelaide agreed to playing Friday night at Colonial and all the rest of it, but yet on the news Steven Trigg basically said the club was forced into it. What are we to believe?

Still think it's a bit rough having to pull up in 5 days for a semi final, but non the less nothing can be done about it now. All we can do is let our on field actions take over and bring us a home grand final.

Cheer for me peoples.

I've got a problem worse than you!

I can't even watch the game on Friday night because I've got the first part of my first aid training Friday night between 7-10pm.

I'm relying on getting sms's from family members telling me the score and a phone call when we win!

Had enough of a sook?? I'd send some tissues over but I wasn't sure whether mail was still delivered by horse and cart and it would be good to have them to you by game time Friday.

JUST REMEMBER, IT IS ONLY THE START OF MARCH, you are carrying on like the world is going to end.

Having said that, I hope Richmond give you a bath.

Don't think it will matter where we play, as I reckon we will beat an understrength Tigers wherever we play. If the game had to be played in Melbourne, its a pity we are not playing at the G.

I don't think it matters where we play. We'll have a few new/fresh players in the side and we weren't exactly run of our feet last week.

Bunji spent the second half on the bench and will be bursting to go. Actually I'm looking forward to him going for a gallop down the wing and outrunning the rail cam.

The biggest problem to me is that the five days break just upsets the pattern. After playing Sunday they wouldn't have a major training session until Tuesday. Wednesday would be a softer day again and then Thursday would probably just be drills preparing for the game on Friday. Not really ideal three weeks out from game 1.

What goes around comes around.

Think of the eight day break before we cream the PAPs

But that is not the point.

We have got a better record in this year's pre-season comp and the fact that the AFL has stuck its own rules up their own a**es is the damn point.

Like D**k-metriou said. "We serve the Victorian market."

Get stuffed Demetriou, if we win on Friday night against the Tigers, it will be a big middle finger to you.

Then again, he might decide to move a Port Adelaide v. Adelaide cup final to Colonial too. They can do that if they want.
