Just watched the game on digital. The centre square looks ok considering the rain .Maybe not to good at centre circle but not unplayable. An looking at North and Central now. (go the Doggies) Prospect looks great. I think your being a bit mischievous.

The cricket pitch was better than I thought. Had a pre-game walk out to middle looked ok. Great win by our reserves. The future is looking bright at the Club. What may got us was the late withdrawal of Guilhaus. Which made us play Wilson up forward. Surprise to see Borholm playing reserves

So you got off your phone Thiele lol anyone wondering I could see Thiele on the bench some Micky was talking to him on Facebook
We knew Borholm was playing seconds not certain we fans all agreed with it .
Seb being injured was a big surprise.
Could be said Redden with help from Hayes and Firns did the job in awful conditions
Four ruckmen two out with inurues in the space of 2 or 3 weeks

I was just killing time when I was on my phone. Did a check once we had set up just before the Ressies went into their meeting

Sunday Mail quoted 1341 there yesterday. Hard to believe.

I think that's an inflated number unless they were in the cricket club with you Goddy they weren't on the wing with me lmao

I thought 500. I wasn't counted

1,341 is the lowest crowd at Woodville since Round 16, 2015 when 1,071 attended to watch the Eagles and South play in diabolical conditions. I think it was the TV game as well.

There's only two other crowd figures lower than 1,341 for Eagles' home games at Woodville since 1997.

No one on the gate at 9.00

Brilliant decision for the umpires to wear a colour so similar to the Eagles jumper. What's the problem with white?

That why I did not notice them. BTW 32-21 frees Westies way. The Norwood and Glenelg supporters always winge about our frees.

Mickyj. No more than 30 up in the cricket club. Easy to get a beer (light only). 500 tops at the ground from my limited view. The SANFL does not get any benefit fudging figures. You cant include people in the QEH in the list of attendees.
Driving home I did notice the Liberty on Port Rd had E10n petrol at 1.19/lt. Had a full tank..Dam

Inbetween the showers at Woodville the QEH was almost invisible to drizzle
We still think Saturdays crowd was less than the crows game

They haven't worn White for a few years iirc

Ok Flag No 10 my eldest suggested I post this your correct .
My son is an adult and colour blind he has issues telling the difference between umpires and Eagles players .

Always liked the old umpire's uniform with black socks and a white shirt with the South Australian coastline in red, yellow and blue. Reckon that was around from the late 1990s until about 2013.

You can thank the Adelaide Football Club for the change.

I never said unplayable and never mentioned Prospect ? The centre square does get boggy quick . I just went back to have a look an by fluke even the commentator said about the boggy middle. Not mischievous at all , just factual. Maybe some took it literally when I said the centre square . Probably should have said "in the middle ". However imagine if we did get a lot of rain ???
