Betts is pretty useless in the air these days all i see him do is go for unrealistic hangers.
Perfect game for him to rewind the clock

Eddie has always struggled with Clarko's in your face, elbow in the comics unsociable stuff, he doesn't like any form of close attention, but as has been pointed out we don't have any one on our list with enough mongrel and concentration to carry out that role for 4 qtrs, and he eventually destroys seagulls like DBJ to the tune of at least 3 or 4 goals.
Eddie's almost impossible to defend because he gets away with so many holds and pushes that normal players don't get away with. You've basically got to hope that the ball doesn't come near him much or that when it does he himself finds a way to stuff it up.
It's ridiculous what he's allowed to get away with in the name of 'entertainment'.Eddie's almost impossible to defend because he gets away with so many holds and pushes that normal players don't get away with.

I'd swap Doogs and Clurey. Not sure Clurey could go with Lynch as he will work up the ground alot. Clurey will start on Walker or Himmelberg and Burton the otherSo where do our defenders go?
Burton - Walker
Dougal - Himmelberg
Clurey - Lynch
Broadbent - Murphy?
I don't like DBJ on Betts either and I think Broadbent will get exposed for pace against a small. Maybe strength too if Greenwood floats forward.
Acting captain you say.... hmmmm... let's put #16 Guernsey on him and go all the way!Also some indigenous players including Buddy and old mate Silk wore #67 a couple of years ago to commemorate 50 years since the 1967 referendum.
In any event Boaky is only the acting captain so no #1 for him.

Does the VC even traditionally wear the 1 when they are acting captain?
This sounds like an incredibly bad idea to me, Travis isn’t the captain him wearing the number one would be a huge slap in the face to his team mates, a very public and deliberate one.
I get you are pissed off with Jonas and Wines as co-captains, but it’s not like we are going to revoke their captaincy, delist them and have them tarred and feather’d out of Adelaide. The club should be helping them, not giving them the finger.

We don’t play a system that relies on match-ups. Whoever is closest to Betts will pick him up.
Ain’t that the truth!That'll be the guy in Row S, where he takes most of his "marks".

Just got an email saying its officially a sell out.
Crows supporters sensing an easy winJust got an email saying its officially a sell out.
It won't get near. Lots of disaffected Port fans won't turn up and haven't handed over their tickets to the club or others. 48k my early guess.Just got an email saying its officially a sell out.
Why I hate Showdowns. A majority of AO members are Adelaide fans and there's too many people I see at our home games in Port gear who rock up tot he Showdown in Crows merchandise. These latter are the worst IMO. Between these two groups our Showdowns are generally something like a 70/30 split at best, whilst their's are 80/20 or 85/15. Not that I've been to an Adelaide Home Showdown since prior to moving to Melbourne in 2000. Wouldn't go to one these days if I was given the tickets for free.Camries can smell blood
You didn’t exactly answer my first question. Has the acting captain ever worn the number 1 in the past? Didn’t Tredrea wear 16 in our premiership year?This is the kind of thinking that gave us co-captains in the first place.
sell out and lock out are two different things.It won't get near. Lots of disaffected Port fans won't turn up and haven't handed over their tickets to the club or others. 48k my early guess.
If I saw a "Port" regular rock up to the Showdown in Crows gear I'd probably flip out.Why I hate Showdowns.
