    I'm afraid they've more than matched us in physical strength and just about everything else you can name, including the game plan. You can say the same thing about Collingwood in the last few years too.

                    Sounds like we were out of practice.

                        I can't believe how people get so down on the team over a practice match.
                        Does God believe in Atheists?

                            Yeah ... at least wait until we've played St Kilda ...
                            He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                                True,

                                All that matters in the pre season is...

                                1)Getting time into players before Round 1
                                2) Trialing youngsters
                                3) NOT GETTING ANY MAJOR INJURIES

                                We ticked all three boxes so I am satisfied.

                                    Exactly, a win (or loss) this time of year counts for jack squat.

                                        Totally correct - it doesn't matter, but it would have been satisfying to us supporters to "get the Adelaide monkey" off our backs.

                                            I'd prefer to do it in Rnd 13.

                                                    Or even until round 3 or 4!
