Mmm. Wouldn't want to be loose at the back, would leave them very exposed. He also wouldn't want to sit on someone's shoulders.

Would his nickname be dandruff if he was to sit on someone's shoulders?

Indeed he would! I'd keep it under your hat, though. If he heard about it, look out - he might be temped to alopecia.

Alopecia at his age, that would leave him scratching his head.

To be honest, he's a bit of a flake. I think this discussion should come to a head before the sideburns him.

But if he goes to another club and dominates for moe money, the fans will ask the club 'why Gillette him go?'

It wouldn't surprise me if the club gave him the "Schick" at the end of the year.

Haha, 3 pages of puns, I almost want him to get a game on the back of just that..

We have a tough draw on the way home. the 3 'easy' games being away, and the 2 tough games being home. Sydney are the form side of the comp, and Port could be 0-17 and it would still make for a tough day. Collingwood - who knows what they will produce. Essendon, they play exciting high octane footy, but I don't know if they have the defensive style that troubles us, if it becomes a shoot out, I think we can more than match them. But they could easily do what they did to Port if they get it right.. WC, lets hope they are cactus come round 23 and we smack them to next pre season, but Subi trips are never fun, albeit they don't have as much of a daunting home record this year than previous years..

3 wins gets us a guaranteed top 2, with GWS and Geelong playing round 23 means one of those sides will likely miss top 2 on the back of dropping that game.. Sydney are the current major threat IMO, but come 6 weeks time, if GWS get all hands on deck, you cant write them off either.. Geelong and Port on the next line also have genuine premiership claims. Exciting year, I hope its our year

Scott Thompson has announced he will retire at the end of the year. Will the Crows give him a farewell match?

From what I can see, only Buntine and Kennedy are ruled out for the season.. Taranto 5-7 weeks takes us to qualifying final day at worst, Griffen, Finlayson 4 weeks gives them 2 NEAFL games before first finals week. Cameron, Shiel, Johnson, Reid all listed as 'Test' so I would say they will feature shortly. Coniglio and Delidio both resumed in the NEAFL on the weekend, and performed strongly, as you would expect

I paid for a ticket to the round 22 clash at Adelaide oval. Just wondering from you crow supporters. the etiquette at the ground regarding cheering for the visiting team, is it acceptable and if so do I need to do it quietly? Also I am sitting next to the visitors race, is that flare free area?

A gentle applause after goals are kicked by the visiting team only permitted at all times no questioning regarding umpiring decisions at all.

Yeah there isn't much left at all, in regard to seating. I think only sing seat tickets are available to the general public. But if she is a member she can get tickets in a designated part of the ground.

Only way would be to buy into the Chairman's lunch/dinner or if you know someone in the AFL Premiership Club that get's reciprocal rights into the Audi Club here, that would probably mean a table of 10 though.
