As a life long supporter of the Roos i dont care where we play footy as long as we are there next week and the week after and so on. What does it matter,spread your wings. On the current form,how good is it watching them at the moment improve. I am a little wary of the clash with Port this week though we lose stupid games like this. Taking my 2 boys and we are going to sit in the cheer squad for the first time if i can find it. We dont have many supporters but thats what its about when you finally meet one in Adelaide its like winning lotto. Who else is going?

For now. What will happen 5 years down the track no ones knows. I am sure the AFL wants a permanent base down there. Kangaroos need to start getting crowds to their home games

Great game yesterday and very impressed the way B Scott is developing this team, I got knocked last year when I said Petrie is an A grader but nothing he has done this year has convinced me he isnt. Gun.

And where are the Daniel Wells knockers now?

Really looking forward to next Sunday and seeing them in the flesh for the first time this year and then ducking over to Melbourne for the Lions game in July.

Wells is a good footballer, cant understand why he gets a bit of stick. If you dont want him we will have him :D
Said a few weeks back that you guys will take our spot in the 8, could even finish around 6th or 7th with a bit of luck.

Wells has deservedly had his knockers. He has been inconsistent, an outside player who doesn't influence games enough. He has been extremely consistent this year and more importantly, workingbloody hard. The form has subsequently followed.

I was one who questioned your top 20 call on Petrie dutchy, and he has definitely proved me wrong. He looks the goods and I definitely underestimated him

Dutchy, serious question here ... Wells has had plenty of good performances over the years, but hasn't ever really assembled a high quality season (as far as I can remember, happy to be corrected) - Is this year shaping as his best?

Absolutely, he has had his critics, but he has finally got his body right and Scott is getting the best out of him. Keep this form up and he will be All Australian.

Really exciting where we might be in 3-4 years time.

You said he is an outside player and while his workrate has improved you didnt say he wasnt an outside player this year.

Anyway play on.
