I'll be there. Looking forward to it actually (Well, not so much after today).

Really hoping we can win. It'd be great to have the Crows sitting 0-7 and 16th. It will make my week at work so much better :thumbsu:

Can we do it? Might bring a wooden spoon along to hand out to the Crows fans after the match...
 
Some people might not be asking "can" we win, but instead asking "should" we win?

My personal opinion is that we should never tank, and i do think we can knock off Adelaide. Infact we have a few winnable games coming up, i hope we win them all (not likely i know).

Please even just give a yelp Richmond. Just a yelp.

Sure, we're a young side and I expect Adelaide to be far too physical for us, but we have to start to do something in the next 12 months or we'll be out the door.

A win would be more than nice. Our coach hasn't experienced a win yet and even though he knows what he's got, it wouldn't do his confidence any good. Same with a lot of the players. A lot don't even know how to win.

Im pretty sure all of the teams we have played have been in the top 8 (Melbourne and Carton after beating us).
That's because both of our teams have been so bad, we have turned our opponents into top 8 sides by gifting them so much percentage...
 
True, but i think Melbourne were deserving of their spot in the 8 with some rare form. A 1 point loss to the Pies, a win over the Crows, flogged us, then flogged an undefeated Brisbane.

Carlton on the other hand were only in the top 8 thanks to us. So you are right there. My point is that all the teams (except Carlton) we have played have been in some pretty hot form when we played them or are genuine grand final threats.
 
I reckon you guys will get up. It feels like our club is expecting to win this, while i reckon your club will know they have a very good shot at their first win so will be ferocious at the ball and scare our players into backwards handballs and turnovers.

Regardless of the result, i hope both sides attack the ball hard and make both clubs supporters (at the very least) satisfied that they gave it a red hot go for 4 quarters.
That at least should give us a good game to watch...
 
Depends which adelaide shows up. If its the current 0-6 adelaide then we have a big chance of a win. If its the adelaide from last year we will get flogged again. Adelaide usually do well against us so im not expecting anything from this match but i hope we at least show up unlike what we did against geelong.


........im sick of losing especially to those smug ****s at geelong.

If our youngsters play with the sam intensity vs Freo a fortnight ago, we have a 50/50 chance against Adelaide. The only concern I have is being pulverized as Geelong did yesterday! If this happens, it will most certainly sap our confidence to an all time low!
 
I haven't had a chance to really watch the Crows play this year. But I can't believe a team coached by Craig with the talent they have can be so bad. The crows seem to have been a bit better the last couple of weeks and I think they might have an 8-10 goal win.
 
Id love to see a game at AAMI stadium and was considering doing it one weekend, maybe this weekend.

Has anybody flown over there and back on the one day, no accomodation required and can tell me what it costs to do that.

Love to see AAMI stadium if we won.
 
this is our best chance i think,

adelaide don't seem to have a whole lot of legspeed around the ground, and if there's one department that we are ok in, it's that we have a fair few speedy young types running around, so we may be able to run them off their feet.

that being said, no matt white please.

adelaide will blow up if we somehow manage to win. craig will be in huge trouble
