Changes v Crows

I watched 360, they did show clips of them training on ground that look like a cow paddock, but it didn’t show Bolton.
Why wouldn’t they be allowed to have a run on Adelaide oval? What a bunch of knobs
it did look like a cow paddock
 
They trained at Prospect oval.
They didn't want them on the surface at the oval due to 40mm of rain.

What not, rather have them train on a uneven, patchy and mud heap in the suburbs of Adelaide.
The AFL is a kick ass organisation
 
Just to clear up everyone I went out to training today at prospect oval and it is a top surface, not remotely close to a cow paddock as it was portrayed on TV.

A few things I took away from the short session

1. Tom Lynch still has the yips....I heard McQualter even admit to Tom needing some confidence
2. Daniel Rioli doesn’t look up about and bit proppy think he could be playing through injury
3. For a big man Chols skills are very good....was drilling his set shots

It's 20 years this year since the 'singing in the rain' win at Football Park, round 9, 1999.

For those that don't remember, the team sang the song in the rain in the middle of Football Park after overcoming the Crows in a tough game.

Mark us down for a win this week.

I hope Higlet packed an umbrella and some tap shoes.

Ellis seem to moving very freely and sprinting with ease, Vlas on the other hand was doing a lot of stretching but did see him doing quick run throughs at the end.

Yea I agree Tiger Force, right now is a great opportunity to see if Chol has got what it takes and if he wants his spot on the list or not........O’Brien from the crows is nearly there best runner and looks to be pretty mobile, Soldo will get left for dead at every ball up.

Soldo plays against a very young but very promising ruckman in O'Brian

Out: Townsend, Butler
In: Bolton, Ellis

Min 11Max 16Showers.Possible rainfall: 2 to 6 mm - normally say that helps us but out contested ball has been terrible. Missing Lambert and the youngster in Ross enormously.

Miss Ross so much, such a shame bloody Fufe stepped in his foot, hope he is ok long term
 
I think with Chol in that means he will be the 38th player used by the footy club this year.

46 available to play this year (includes both Grigg and Pickett) and only the following haven't played after tonight. Aarts, RCD, DES, English, Miller, Moore, Pickett and Turner.

There you go, TF!

Can’t wait to see how Marbs goes tonight.

Same here. At least we get more flexibility in the ruck and what we've been STARVING for a long time.........X factor!!

Do it Cholly!!
