I'm reliably informed that a Crow's child ticket covers anyone under 40 so you should be good to go.

So the 2017 first showdown?
Quoting TISM is more evidence going to the "the Brazilian Power supporters are really 15 year old boys from Paralowie" theory.
I'm not confident this week. Weirdly, I would be more confident had Adelaide been playing better this year.

Roo seems very irritable this year. Must be under a bit of pressure. Would be great to tip him over the edge.

I know right, finishing Top 4 would be a total fail of a season, may as well rest up and try for....erm Top4 next year.

We need to keep trading in good players so that we don't watch them.

Shut your trash mouth. Today is not the day for realism. Today is the day for delusional hope. Don't take that away from me.
Port by 1-4 points in a heartbreaking final 2 minutes where a freakish bounce, a bit of Chad and Ryder magic and a smaller but more vocal Port crowd get us over the line. Because we love doing that to them and the universe has now realised how awful that collective is and is allowing nature to do the right thing.
I want to believe today.

Both of the Bulldogs games have been in really bad weather, the cows kicked 9 goals in the pouring rain and 6.6 to 1.7 after half time. We kicked 11 goals in a blustering gale, bad lighting and less heavy rain. We also kicked 7.8 to 1.4 after half time.
Not much can be made of that except that it will be low-scoring. Even if the weather at the game isn't as bad as it has been lately, and it is forecast that there may be a window of half-good weather at the time, it will still be a slog.

When did beating Adelaide become delusional hope? They're not that good. If they were they wouldn't be 12th.
And we're not as bad as some here would make out.

Imagine the commentary in the unlikely event of us smashing them?

True but we do make an artform of making games that we should win and turn it into a loss. Why because we don't want to take the easy path. We like a challenge. We are Port Adelaide.
Too right we are better than them but when did that stop us from stupid losses in the past?

It would be the only time you would want to hear Prosciutto's voice on loop over and over again. It would also be the only time it would sound sweet and soothing. I love when Port make him cranky. Let's do this Port.
Some tickets released on ticketek

The other thing Douglas said which was a bit denigrating was how him colliding with McGovern let Motlop run into an open goal.
10 replayed the moment and as I recalled after the collision between camries Motlop ducked around some witches hat Rory and with 4 Rorys and Rileys closing in kicked truly on the run from 30m.
It was no Jenkins the Goose goalsquare special.

I am inocent. I had never heard of it before today:
This Is Serious, Mum — indeed!
A clear case of scotomisation - (or to coin a new term scrowtomisation in this case).

The time difference kills me. It is still Meltingday, August 2nd around here.
Hopeday begins in 2 hours and 10 minutes.

He will gently ask if his ticket is good as it is (by presenting it at the turnstile). If the Crows accept it, everything is fine. Otherwise, if the ticket is deemed improprer, he simply goes back and upgrades the ticket.
I don't understand why a question would harm anyone's integrity. In both cases, he does the right thing.
For Motlop, it was AS IF the goal was wide open. Other players might not feel the same way...

He will get robbed inside if he buys a beer or food anyway!
Swings and roundabouts.
The crows' lack of class and composure absolutely contributed to the situation - but it was that very combination that allowed Motlop to slice between a couple of opponents (not that Atkins was ever really going to apply defensive pressure) while wheeling back ON TO his right side and still managed to kick a dead straight drop punt. I think that last part of him still cutting back on his preferred foot is overlooked.
