Adelaide Match Thread

[ROK Lobster]

In 2003 whenever the ball came into our attacking 50 it only got back out under extreme duress. IMO that was one of the features of that year, the defensive work inside the attacking 50. Last year I thought it dropped off a lot. This year it seems to have vanished completely.

EDIT: the reason Ugg's post below is now nonsensical is because I mucked up and used the word 'defensive' when I meant 'attacking'. Sorry Ugg.

That's because sides have worked out that the basis of our game plan revolves around our rebound. Plus, it doesn't help when Leo and Kennelly are forced to cover key forwards. I hope Schauble comes back soon.

Goodes back in the ruck?

With Ball going down with a hamstring, and Doyle a few weeks away is Goodes a chance to return to the Ruck?

Adelaide is underrated and not only are their skills good but they're hard at it, their tackling was far superior. Can't see why McVeigh doesn't get a run a good midfielder needs to be developed who is youthful. Spriggs is a fit trier but his disposal hurts. Think Crows had superior fitness as well though they did have a more flexible bench.

Completely out-coached and out-skilled. Hard to see Roos still being around by seasons end. Surely they teach skills as well as fitness during swans training sessions?

What a totally inept display from so called professional footballers, absolutely shocking across the field..defence taking stupid riskes, to many handballs, players down field not giving any options, not hitting targets, not picking up your opponet etc I could be here all night on what went wrong.
There are some serious problems at the Swans, in some of the players attitudes.
The twits in yellow were on the take, but Sydney were down right abysmal

Got several much stonger in mind, but got to keep the board
G-rated
Thankfully didn't cost Sydney the game(Sydney did that), in a way rather appropriate with the inept play, the umps were inept as well

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FoxFooty NSW has just lost a viewer Friday nights. Why wait for 9.30pm when I can now watch the games at 8.30pm!!!!

WOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOO

Watching on Cable - its FANTASTIC. Almost TV quality YAY!!!!!

shhhhh Don't tell anyone, we don't want to crash their server OR get them busted for re-broadcasting without permission outside the broadcast area. I'm sure its illegal. If it was legal, then why don't Fox just broadcast it themselves anywhere they like?

Knew I should've got a D1 instead of an IQ.
