There was a covid reduced "crowd" of 16,727 which made the win even sweeter. We will have to silence about 40,000 on Sunday.

Start of 2nd qtr, go walk the dog or sumthin.
Cos in the 1st qtr, Max will kick 1.3, the 3 points will be from 35 in front. The goal will be 50m on a 45° angle


2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn

We have shown in the past if we can win enough of our own footy we have enough talent to win the game

I agree with you, but the comment is correct for any sporting team in the world too.
The huge question is, will our guys win clearances but turn it over?
Turnovers kill us because our team is running free to receive, and most oppo guys are therefore unmanned.

Woke up this morning and stood up.
I noticed that my arse still points to the ground so I’m not in agreement with the OP.

Nope, we we can't.

We went close in 2017 in similar circumstances and didn't salute then either.

IMO we need to make sure that we win 3 out of our next 4 after Sunday.

How many of those 40,000 will be real people and not computer graphically enhanced advertisements?

how can 40,000 fans in adelaide or 75,000 in melbourne keep 1.5 metres apart?
or is this sometimes rule? as in sometimes, when it doesn't cost us a profit?
