These blokes realise it actually requires us to actually shoot at goal and try and attack??

Light at the end of the tunnel...

[The Dunster]

We need to attack. If we sit back or hide in our shells Adelaide are going to destroy us.
No more of this lone striker crap either. Miller needs to roll the dice and at least give the fans a glimmer of hope.

holy **** i legit didn't even know this game was on at home. thought it was in pissant country for some reason.
oh well, Christmas party tonight. no time for this bullshit.

all the best though.

[Jetmaster]

Reckon we'll win - we have a history of great performances in night games at home. Atmosphere usually much better too.

Which makes this season's schedule even more tragic.

Our last 3 home wins have been on a Friday night. 2 of them against Adelaide

Nailed it!

[sammydog]

Daughter is sick, wife is working, I'll be missing this one.

My absence was enough to get us across the line a few times last season. If we win, I will stay away for good.

[MFKS]

Reckon we'll win - we have a history of great performances in night games at home. Atmosphere usually much better too.

Which makes this season's schedule even more tragic.

We also have a stellar history of some pretty abysmal performances

Read into that what you will

Hopefully tonight win lose or draw we see 11 blokes run onto the park in blue and gold and rip in for the first 20 mins and have a go and not play like cowards. Have some shots scare our opponent

Get the crowd involved and get into the game.

Not the usual bullshit with the quietly quietly approach which takes us fans out of the game as we get bored watching another insipid heartless performance


Could not give a **** if we lose.

Let me see my team having a ****ing go and playing for their fans and with passion for the shirt from minute 1 to minute 90.

That is what I want nothing more

Millertime to deliver
