I think when you consider the profile of our list - two probably top 10 players in the league (Walker, Dangerfield), a couple hanging around the top 25 (Thompson, Jacobs), deep midfield rotation (loved the point raised against Carlton, that Douglas and Vince, both B&F winners, are second string mids in our rotation - great sign), Rutten with a full PS under the belt and Talia as our CHB; i.e. excellent spine - this shapes as a legit opportunity.

My only prediction is Tex to kick 100.

I swear to god, if we lose another prelim..

 

[Wright Away]

Adelaide is going to win the 2013 AFL Premiership. I've already booked the hotel in Melbourne for the Grandfinal I will be attending.

Am tempted to do the same.

Premierships are won in the guts these days, and we've got one of the best.

Remember 15/20 years ago where if you didn't have a 100 goal full forward and 60 goal centre half forward, it was a tough ask.

Love it.

Thompson is due for a serious injury.

Walker will get games for something meaningless that never hurt a fly, again.

Ex Richmond forward/ruckman with Scottish names will be convicted for not marking the ball during the seasons 2008-2012 and banned for life ,their boot studder fined 3 pound for vasing the gloves

Sam Jacobs will break his leg.

 

[sliver member]

win two finals in a row. No crows team has achieved this since 98

 

[cammo6556]

Hendo to go in ridiculously hard at a contested ball, ending up with bruising on the brain. Can only say the words "I told you so" for his entire recovery period.

 

[Freddy Bassett]

Australia to lose 3-1 in Ashes.

Crows to make GF and lobby hard to play at AAMI. Vlad agrees and the SANFL throw open the gates for free, people cue up on the boundary line like the old days and the record crowd of 72,000 spillover into tears and beers to see off the old girl.
