    Good, I think there is a lot of upside to Ling considering his pot holed journey so far, another with pace and good foot skills

        Adelaide seem to have a lack of experienced tall defenders, so if we can get some sort of flow from midfield, we should be able to exploit that. Unless they're planning on playing Lynch down back, they have two defenders over 190cm. In his fourth game, Butts might have to go against Buddy. That means debutant, Murray, should match up against Reid and then whoever is considered their next best tall option, to probably go to McDonald. Which leaves possibly our best marking option, Heeney, marked by their third or fourth best tall defender. If we can at least partially match last week's delivery, it should be fun to watch.

        And while I'm obviously looking forward to the return of Franklin, I get the feeling that Heeney might kick plenty.

        From the practice photos, he did look to have a trimmer midsection.

          Twenty seconds of play. Two frees and a 50m penalty against us.... Lovely.

              The one in front of goal was a joke. Also Kennedy held and nothing...
              He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

                Umps are murdering us. Going to be a tough afternoon.

                Lol, we finally get a free and no downfield. Just makes it worse for us.

                  Our skills so far aren't as good as last week but that's credit to the pressure by Adelaide.

                  Again inconsistencies with the holding the ball rule. Should have been a free to us before the Walker one.

                    My last comment on the umpires for the day (sick of talking about it already), but gee, they only give us the bleeding obvious ones, don’t they?

                      Hope we get to see plenty of Gulden to Franklin over the next couple of years.

                        Well we were right that they were going to call Buddy play on when he was having a shot. He kicked the goal though ????.

                          Who’s the infant umpire no 17? Not seen him before - nice goal from our Buddy (great pass from young Errol too)
                          I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

                            Can we just sign Logan to a 9 year contract now?

                              I'm starting to feel confident when McDonald is having a shot.
