Unless they feel like giving Grigg, Petrenko and Sam Shaw the week off (and no reason why they would), you can add those 3 to the side and omit 3 top-ups. Once you do that, paper it's a stronger side than Norwood's (presuming Callinan and Porplyzia are fully fit) bearing in mind all that Norwood have lost this week. If Shaw and Petrenko join Reilly, Otten and Luke Thompson in the back half, it's a better and stronger-bodied defence than Adelaide has had for most of this year by a mile. Plenty for Norwood fans to be worried about. (Even apart from worrying it about being a nonsense game against a team that shouldn't be in the comp.)

The ravens have quickly gone from having the best forward line in league history to potentially the worst. First team to 8 goals wins?

Watching the Crows game last night I thought we were going to see a first for awhile there. I didnt think Matt Crouch was going to be used at all as the sub.
My question is does anybody know if he is able to play SANFL tonight? As it was he only played 10 minutes and the Crows maybe happy with that but is there anything to stop them giving him say a half a game tonight? What if he wasn't used last night, could he play SANFL tonight?

I would highly doubt - in fact I'm almost certain - that Crouch would NOT be allowed to play SANFL this evening...

They will just drop him back to the SANFL next weekend to get more game time, I'd suggest...

Adelaide have just updated their team..

No joke that it's Adelaide's strongest side for the year. The only non-AFL-listed player in their starting 18 is Ian Callinan.

Good on 'em for continuing to pretend that Porplyzia will play CHF, just as Norwood's happy to pretend that Michael Newton will play CHB. Wouldn't be surprised if those 2 blokes didn't go within a drop punt of each other all night.

Except during the half-time Rumble in the Tunnel 2.

That Crows team suddenly looks pretty reasonable. Crows to win a lowish scoring game by 3-4 goals.

Crows by 10 goals.

Norwood paying $2.45 for the win.
Cows $1.30 favs

That. Was. Fun!!
I don't think Mr Trigg likes me, but most of the Western Stand gave me a standing ovation!!

Forever in the history books as first SANFL team to beat the two AFL sides!!

That was terrible Fester calling the ceo of the White Wedding dress Virgins another Abbott.




Actually it was the 2nd best highlight of the night behind Willo's last quarter goal

Fair goal by Willo.
The precious Cows players and their 20 fans didnt like being picked on, McKernan didnt like someone in the crowd calling him a pea hearted c**t.
There was even some Norwood supporters going for the Cows aswell, they were not spared from the abuse either.

Rock ape "pea hearted" that's generous.
Noticed a couple of the white wedding dress virgin fans disappear in the second half.

Adelaide did not put in after half time at all. Seemed quite deliberate. Bruise free. If they were serious, Siggins would not have started on Newton let alone finish on him. A passionless game.
