Flight delayed - training staff save life

[Sera]

The Eagles plane to Adelaide has been delayed so they won't get to train at AAMI stadium before the game. On the goodside, training staff were able to save the life of an 85 yo woman who had a heart attack outside the ground. They were only there because the flight had been delayed. Also Chris Judd may be a late withdrawal...

I heard they took the woman down to the rooms, gave her an injection, and put her on the exercise bike for a while. Woosh said she might be a chance to make the final 22 this week.

On Judd, well, not good news He completed training after getting some work done, so it seems like he might still be a chance. Having said that, we've had hellish bad luck with late withdrawals this season- seems as though everytime someone *could* miss, they do.

For the love of God and all that is holy - I hope he plays! I've always wanted to see the bloke play in the flesh and this may be my only opportunity.

Well, i hope people turn up for the match of the round [and possibly match of the year]. On the news tonight they said there could be 20,000 empty seats yet Choco is talking the match down?

Thats correct. 20,000 seats left. I really dont understand the Power supporters who dont attend. I'm there every home match and I dont give a flying piece of batshyte whether its tipping it down, 50ºC, hailing, snowing, tropical cyclone Barry has just blown into town and I've got Joffa on one side of me and Mark Bickley on the other. I support my team and will be beside them through it all. And the thing is? If you take a careful look at where most of the empty seats are, you'll see its the Members areas. So all the ferals are showing, just not the people who are guaranteed a seat.

Chocco isnt talking it down. He's talking us down, and rightly so. If anyone can beat us, you can, because we're playing below our best and havent been right for the past few weeks.

What's wrong with Judd?

On the Eagles website it said that they were going to train at 3.45am at AAMI Stadium. Maybe it was a good thing that the plane was delayed!

20k seats left means 36k seats sold.

Considering our largest home crowds have been around 40k (not counting showdowns), I don't see why this should surprise anyone. Because there is always 20k seats left no-one ever books either. Unlike camry games.

hows Judd going?? 2 hours to bounce down so must have a fair idea now if he's gonna play??

wats wrong with him?

Well, I'm in Perth, so that's why I'm not going to the match. But if I lived in Adelaide I'm be there at every home match! Can't understand why Port supporters in Adelaide wouldn't want to go to the match......

Of course I did!!! Pity about the result though......However, I got pretty plastered after the match & soon forgot about the result!

Yeah Port supporters should get behind them! Too many empty seats, you would think tonights game would be sold out! Should be a good one anyway!
