NUFC, YES.
Come on now

Every KPF is better with supplementary players but to 'never rate' Walker is astounding. The guy is a genuine beast in the forward line.
Yeah, even as a youngster at Norwood you could tell he was an absolute steal.

Comfortable on either side, comfortable at ground level, old school freight train lead, tremendous goalsense, combative and a classic kicking action that can easily carry 55 metres.

If he was 3-4cms taller he'd be an all-time battleship.

So uh, Patrick Dangerfield... and yes this is his usual standard.


Can't think of too many better than Walker. Franklin, Hawkins, Roughhead? Hes a gun
That Schulz guy who used to play for Richmond goes alright. ;)

Schulz is more effective, Clarke may prove to be better, GWS have a couple even Nick Riewoldt at his age is better.

If his ears stuck out any further GMH would sue for copyright infringement of a FJ Holden with its doors open.

Cameron Mooney trying to annoy Crows fans with a mock up of Dangerfield in a Geelong jumper. Stevie J (who is a guest in commentary box) handled it well, telling Cam he is sick of hearing about it, and that Dangerfield plays for Adelaide and that's all the matters right now.

Richmond must be loving the distraction. ;)

That was really crap footy that quarter. Looked like both teams intensity dropped away completely and so did the skills. You'd expect both these teams to be in that 4-10 bracket but they certainly haven't played like it. The number of mistakes from Geelong has been astronomical.

Nah. Geelong may surprise a few of us and hang around for one more year, but what has Adelaide actually done to suggest they're going to improve on last year.

Moreso what Gilligan has done for them by giving them a bottom 4-esque soft draw for the 4th year in a row, they'll improve but only because they'll be beating up on minnows every 2nd week.

Port Adelaide eager to inspect Football Park’s suitability for hot derby after One Direction concert
PORT Adelaide will inspect Football Park on Monday as questions linger on the ground’s suitability for the AFL pre-season ending Showdown with the Crows next Saturday.
And if doubts linger on the state of the southern end of the West Lakes venue — after the turf was flattened by the stage for the One Direction concert on February 17 — the Power could make a push to move the game to Alberton Oval.
