To recognise community footy, this game should be moved to Sunday - where other C Grade games across community footy get to shine

This is the first time I don't have footy training on a Thursday night game all year, so I can watch this. Hopefully it's a decent win.

This game is on at 11.50 a.m. Adelaide time. Not sure if I can recall a match being played that early.

There was a WC v Collingwood pre-season cup game in Darwin in about 1992 that started at I reckon 11.30 a.m. Darwin time (to avoid the heat) - which would have been 12.30 p.m. Adelaide time (so a tad earlier than the normal 12.40 Sunday timeslot).

Come to think of it there was a game on ANZAC in Wellington a few years ago which was quite early. Not before noon though, I don't think. Edit: apparently well before noon - 10.40 a.m. our time.

Harry Ramm was born two weeks after Travis Boak was drafted. He'll debut in Boaks last game.

I think we will have a crack but realistically there isn’t a team in the comp who shouldn’t beat us currently

You’ve only got a few hours to go, you’ll be grateful at 10pm to see the end of the 2025 season
