Re-watching the game now. It's interesting that on the broadcast all you can hear is the RBB when at the southern end we couldn't hear them at all. To those at the sides, were the wanderers supporters louder or was it fox trying to get as much noise from them as possible.
I was up the back of the top tier of the members area next to the RBB. They were loud and their sound carried well (particularly the drums) due to the amphitheatre effect of the stand. Buy they were easily drowned out by the rest of the crowd at other times.

The TV producers only have ground level mics to work with, assuming equal spatial distribution would put ~1/4 of them by the wanderers fans despite being far less than a quarter of the crowd.

Unrelated pregame highlight: a friend and I went to grab some food, looking out from the SACA members area stairs you could see civilised Adelaide fans enjoying afternoon snacks on the picnic tables on the lawn and behind them a giant fence holding the undead horde of the RBB outside the stadium.

Desperately looking for a Full Replay to relive the glory!

If someone finds one, can they link please?

Bit bemused by Poppa's comments saying we didn't play football, all long balls and various other sour grapes. During the first half at least that's all that WSW could do, hoof it up the park and hope it fell kindly, they were trying to bypass a midfield they couldn't control.

Smacks of the bemusing Graham Arnold presser where he accused the other team of negative football and continuous fouls to break up play, except SFC had the higher foul count and were using the tactic.

Lost a bit of respect for Tony after that. At least Kenny Lowe gives credit where credits due, both Muscat and now Poppa just claim they lost it, Adelaide didn't win it.

What tosh.

"we didnt play football"

sorry but the first goal tore the WSW defence apart by the football that we've played all year.

As hard as it is to take the years of disappointment, if you stick with your team/club it certainly makes it so much more special when you finally win the big one!

Reminder to get down to Rundle Mall from midday if you're in the city...!
All I need is some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine.

Can't make it, even though I've got a pupil free day today :(

Hopefully they'll be doing something on the weekend for the fans who have school and work today.

hopefully they do a fan day for families. I'd like to take my kids down and hopefully get some contact with players for photo ops.
