I liked the way Worrall goes about it, never really taken much notice but thought he gave it a red hot go on the weekend.

Glad that’s over with, I didn’t buy into the “we’ll smash them” media hype.

Mids were smashed but got the win. Previous seasons that’s a game we lose.

Collingwood at the MCG is a big test but we usually play ok against them

I've got absolutely zero confidence in beating Collingwood. If it wasnt just the difference in talent and form, Two days extra rest, after resting five players last week. Impossible task.

Good points.

If it was me, Walker misses this one and Pedlar comes in.

Yeah we had a draw against them in 2017 at the MCG when McGovern kicked a goal after the siren, that's 8 years since we got any points against them !

Jordan Dawson rated 3rd worst kick in the competition by Champion Data

This is a massive game for Adelaide. Win this one and they are in absolutely flying and it’s a statement game. Zero chance of resting players imo unless urgently required.

Kicking efficiency is rubbish stat, any kick over 40m is considered efficient, whether it hits the target or not.

Ha I'll remember that the next time a 40 m F50 entry misses the target and is either a LBG or intercept mark to the defending team who then slingshots it out the other side for a sausage down the other end

Really Dutchy???

I get your point about kicking efficiency as a percentage as that can be misleading but there is clear data that shows the absolute number of effectitive kicks/disposals is a key stat that = wins

Happy to show you the article
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
