That green sand looks atrocious. What a shit advertisement for our state of the art training facility.

I'm microwaving my imaginary membership lanyard until they plant some trees and shrubbery.

I can't believe we traded picks 1 and 19 to Melbourne...

Number 47. What a gun.

 

[serial_thrilla]

Can't even get to 100 points in a practice match with 7 quarters...

The camera work and the choice of shots was next level awful. The only benefit was it obscured some of our mistakes.

So we made more mistakes than I saw?

The first mistake was seeing any of it.

Wake me up next February, this season is clearly a write off

What is depressing me is you look at the spread & talent of the Adelaide forwards with Tilthorpe, Fogarty, Himmelbeg, Rankine, Rachelle, McAdam & old man Walker & we can’t put out anything like that level of talent forward of Centre & they’re not even a particularly strong team by the standards of the comp.

For a team working up towards the business end of the ladder we’re severely underinvested in the attacking side of things.

It’s a scratch match but our mids were pathetic at times today.

And Erasmus can’t kick.

And Sturt still can’t get near it & was a liability the few times he had the ball.

I hope Pearce was just nervous first game as Captain because he looked clueless.

I’m not sure what we’ve been doing all summer but it would be nice to see some signs of remembering how to do football against Port because that was a debacle.

Hold off your judgements one and all until the whips start cracking. When we hear the sonic boom, we'll see the Purple Blur.

No. it was clearly a decade defining performance.

I wonder if we can find someone to pay them 650 to take him off our hands next year

Imagine if we had just Fogarty and Rachelle.

Had a chance to go after Himmelberg.
Adelaide forward line is stacked. Rachele Rankine and McAdam as the Smalls. Yikes

Erasmus hasn't been able to kick since the start. I know people have high hopes for him - but all I can remember from him AFL games was kicks with no depth, turnovers, and getting caught trying to do too much. He's coming from a long way back

Not great signs for a top 10 pick. Bit Blakely-esque. Hope he comes good. Have seen a lot better signs from Johnno tbh.

Yep, anyone saying either will overtake Brodie by the end of this year is wearing some very purple tinted glasses, they will both get games this year but it’ll be at least a couple of years before they are preferred options in our engine room.

Here is my actual vent, someone needs to tell Jackson that if he takes the mark, he doesn’t need to worry about positioning for the second effort. It seems he is focused more on how he’ll land when the ball comes to ground than he is on just taking the ball with one grab.
I know he gets all the plaudits for his follow up, which is great in the ruck, but seriously just take the mark!

As long as some people have something to complain about, their lives are complete. Yes, I realise this is a vent about unnecessary venting. It was a meaningless scratch match - get over it!
