That's right shoot me down LOL. I was actually happy for Blighty (and later John Barnes) when they got their flag(s). Wasn't much joy down at Catland in the 90's.

Love Tex on twitter. Somebody had a crack at him when he said he was sick of hearing about eds comments. Calls them a peanut then accuses a chick of Bullying him.

Not that I would condone twitter battles but it was funny and at least Tex speaks his mind.

Where I read the comments it was part of the afternoon news. So not an article on its own.

The woman is an imbecile and has completely twisted the event and further dramatized it to suit her agenda.

This is an absolute storm in a tea cup. What grown adult or little kid would think it's ok to go out and abuse any human being after those initial comments. Ok if Caro didn't like it then thats her choice and for them to sort out between each other. However to have every Tom, Dick and Harry to come out and be offended on her behalf is just an absolute laughable joke.

No wonder why more younger kids don't listen to adults these days,......idiots.

Crouch in for Seedsman who has done a hammy.


No Wells or Waite for the Roos

You'd expect in the weather predicted the game would be played in tight, so Crouch who's been in good form in the twos should relish the conditions and his bigger body could be invaluable. Two decent outs for the Roos too but still think they're right in this game, Adelaides tall forwards may well be hampered by the conditions.

North Melbourne have a similar tall forward line, except Crows one is better.

Similarly matched at full strength, but no Waite for North and I think if they can't mark it North's forward line loses a lot. Walker, Jenkins and Lynch are handy at ground level and in terms of small forwards we're talking Thomas v Betts. Losing Daniel Wells I think hurts even more in the wet.

Don't think they will play Goldstein, Brown, Petrie and Daw tomorrow night, one will be a late withdrawal

We've still got still got 8 of our best 22 out, plus as I've mentioned it's 3 games in 12 days v a team off a 12 day break who are the in form team of the comp on their own dung hill.
Crows should be winning this comfortably.

Making excuses before a ball has even been bounced? How Shinboner-like :shock:

Nice troll champ. I've only stated the facts, these are the facts why I'd say 95% of people pick Adelaide tomorrow night to win.

Just being realistic.......

8 first choice players not in the side, playing a team straight off the bye and playing that team at their home ground. Just 1 of those would be a slight concern all 3 a major worry and up against it.

Might be more too. Naming a bloke doesn't mean he's a definite in. Will be interesting what they do with Goldstein. West Coast messed up trying to keep Natanui going to the break and lost him for virtually the season. He's such an important player when fit (the last couple of weeks have shown that IMHO) that you imagine Brad Scott has quizzed the medicos on the benefits of 2 weeks off compared to 1.

So this is the second match between both sides . First one was in Melbourne and the media pregame was beefing up the Roo's .
So many round 1 games north hadnt won highlighted the last time crows won that was highlighted so the Roo's won.
Now your saying it's not fair playing Adelaide in Adelaide that's a bit Victorian centric AFL created a national Comp . You do need to travel crows last match Perth this week Adelside .
And poor kangaroos fans are crying cause it takes less than an hour to fly here
Gee whizz life's hard if you play footy

What the hell are you talking about. I havent heard any complaints from the Roos or there supporters about coming here. They are looking forward to the challenge apparently.
