Been free for a number of years now. Beauty of Adel Oval too heading down and watching a few sessions - always a good vantage point no matter where you choose to sit.


Last time i went it was free but was when they where building the new stands. Looks like I will have to go for a look the weekend with the lad to see Australia vs South Australia. :roll:

Love watching the Shield.

Enter through the gates at the Northern end and sit in the members section. Often see Crows and Power players watching and they are great with the kids if they want an autograph or photo


First team unchanged from the Shield Final

Travis Head (c), Callum Ferguson, Alex Carey, Tom Cooper, John Dalton, Jake Lehmann, Joe Mennie, Kane Richardson, Chadd Sayers, Jake Weatherald, Daniel Worrall, Adam Zampa.

We've seemed to cop them at full strength for the past few seasons.....


Reckon we always get them as with half the NSW team playing for Aus they try to give those boys the Day/Night game at Adelaide Oval to get used to the conditions for the test. That's my thinking behind why we always get them early on at full strength.

Wasn't it at Memorial Drive? Might have needed the indoor centre for all the free loaders plus parking would have been a bitch.

Park 25 is a pain in the arse to get to, should be able to do a u-turn near the new hospital entrance, even entering that and coming back out to turn right took an eternity.

It's a winless situation coming from Gepps or Mawsons.

You can't enter from West Tce atm and my quickest commute route is via Chief Street, onto Port Road then it's a lottery from there.

Chucking a right off James Congdon then a Uey on Henley Beach Road is my next best option which means I do a complete lap of Park 25.

It's just shit whatever way you look at it and I have to go there very often.

I usually go Montefore Rd onto Hindley St, then West Tce or James Congdon > Sir Donald Bradman > West Tce.

It it's a weekend or later in the evening i'll do the Port Rd, turn into the Hospital and come back out with a right hand turn.

Ideally it would be good if you could just turn right into Park 25 :lol:

Yeah, mine are usually a weekend or evening run so the Hindley Street way can vary by 10 minutes.

Turning right out of the hospital is crap, waited about 4 minutes for a green light for a 6 shot at getting through.

You're right, they should move the entrance to be adjacent to the hospital junction, one day someone will get cleaned up by a tram attempting a u-turn at the lights.
