2nds West Adelaide vs Port Adelaide - Round 2 @ Waikerie

[Bump Bailey]

How the * do you lose a game with these numbers? And please don’t say “it’s the SANFL’s fault”, it’s time we started looking in the mirror.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Couldn't defend a 16 point lead with minutes left. Call us Carlton.

 

[VineValerian]

Lol Portz.
Spoon coming up.
I suppose we have a slight chance of beating one team this year - South, but it will be an almighty battle to do so.

 

[philthy05]

There’s absolutely no upside in narkle. He’s a delisted player who once we cut will be a state league player for life.

 

[Grave Danger]

 

[Capital Power]

It seems we have the same depressing game plan as the firsts.

+30 pos, +14 i50, +6 marks, +39 HO, more scoring shots, more behinds than goals...

It works against poor teams in the AFL because of our class, but doesn't work at this level. How does this possibly develop our next generation?

We fielded close to our strongest possible team, so we cant even use that excuse.

We may as well let the twos play a scratch match against the Crows every week.

It really is time for a change in the box.

 

[Bump Bailey]

How can you not hold onto a three-goal lead late in the last term with a number of experienced AFL players on the park, against an opposition that has propped up the league for five years? This club is infected with Chronic Loser Syndrome.

Very Hamish Hartletty though

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Lorenz good stats for a first year player: 19, 6 marks & 6 inside 50s.

Would you rather leave Supermac in to play the small forward role or bring in Evans?

 

[Capital Power]

Might be an unpopular opinion but I vote we never have another Russell Ebert tribute match. It turns our teams to custard regardless of the level of opposition.

 

[RossFC]

One of Evans or Narkle has to replace McEntee.

From that 2nd half, Evans looked better.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Russell Ebert tribute game. He was from the Riverland area, which is also West Adelaide’s country zone.

Have we performed well in a single Russell Ebert tribute game yet?

[PJ Power]

For a squad with relatively few injuries, these SANFL performances don’t say much for our depth.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Wtf are you on about. It was our idea to play here.

Playing our young AFL players on a Cattle Pen.
Really! Whose idea was that?

Maybe they think Tribute match must be a big piss up afterwards.

I don’t want any of them in. Just commenting that there’s no upside in narkle.

He’s a complete known quantity at this point.

Sure but the known quantity is 10-15 touches and a goal a game, which makes him a better option than some.

Won the first two SANFL contests before today I believe, obviously the AFL one in 2022 was a disgrace.

He’s got upside on supermac, I’ve got upside on him.
You have to pick one now be a good lad and throw a dart and see where it lands.

We have some depth but mostly in the spine which is the least important players in a league like the sanfl

No Boak, Finlayson, Lord, Mead, Jackson, Walsh and McCullum today.

How is that loser coaching us. Fair dinkum.

 

[Coobk001]

7 day trial on there, gonna cancel after the 2nd half.

I clicked it, but it said I was ineligible.

 

[PA88]

Magpies just keep being crap each year.
